The right way. The best coffee possible.
Ensuring product quality is choosing not to take the easy way. If we want to make someone’s day, we’ve got to give a little bit of ourselves in every cup we serve. Every Gloria Jean’s Coffees crew member is a keeper of that single cherry, from the time it gets picked up until the time it’s brewed, but what makes normal beautiful is the goodness that sits on top of a cup of coffee.

I liked the atmosphere and the people very much. I really enjoyed the cheesecake. After a busy day at the beach and a humongous seafood lunch, this is a great place to relax with a cup of coffee and a treat.

Cats, Coffee & Consciousness
A café serving organic drinks & food, that promotes sustainable & ecological practices. A dedicated space for music & art lovers where the focus is on the musical experience & high fidelity sound. A lounge and event space where you can relax, cuddle and hangout with over 22 cats while sipping on coffee or wine and enjoying art.
What Others Are Saying
I enjoy seeing the cats since I'm a cat lover. Upon entering the building, I was immediately turned off by the strong smell of cat urine. It had an "unsanitary" feeling to it in the first room when it came to the food and drinks. Cats were climbing all over the counters where pastries are kept. Although it is a unique place, I would not recommend having food or drinks there or keeping cats away from the sectioned-off food and drink area in the front of the building? Honestly, I am surprised that DHEC allows it.

Make Someone Happy with a Coffee.
Exceptional coffee, cold brew, infused teas and mouth watering sweets that you will CRAVE. CRAVE Coffee and Bakery. Locally and Veteran Owned! Come out and support your local SC business.
What Others Are Saying
Roomy with big tables, couches, and a high table. I liked the drinks, but they weren't great. I couldn't taste any of the flavor add-ins because they were a little watery. Although the food was good, the breakfast sandwiches were kept in a cooler and we were surprised there was no way to heat them. Despite its good looks, the couch was uncomfortable quickly because of the springs. Staff members are friendly and helpful, and the bathrooms are clean, so we give the coffee shop an "average" rating.

Useful & Good
Good coffee requires good work and good work requires good inspiration. You are that inspiration. We do all of this because we believe that coffee shouldn’t have to choose between being approachable or excellent. Our work is based in years of experience and careful control so that we can honor the work of everyone: the farmers who grow it, the individuals who roast it, the team that prepares it, and most importantly, the people who drink it.

Great coffee! I love it! Every week, we get a bag to take home.
