I can't say enough great things for this tucked away jewel. Everything, an I mean everything about this place is awesome. Customer service is on point and the sandwiches and soup are just delicious.

This is one of the best places on the MUSC campus. This is operated by a husband and wife combo. Jose are Wendy are the best. They know all of their regulars on a first name basis, and its remarkable that they can remember everyone's names. This place is 10/10!

For a tiny little place, their offerings are expansive! Service is fast and friendly. Lots of salad, sandwich and snack options. And specialty coffees!! I’d come here even if I didn’t have to be in the building!!

Jose is incredible. He remembers everyone's name, at least he did mine. The food is fresh with flair and the daily specials are always amazing, flavorful, and delicious. We are all in love with the spring rolls. Thanks Jose and staff!

When I was going through chemo my husband and I would visit the cafe while I was waiting for my appointment. The staff here was always smiling and would great us by name after a while and even remember what we would order regularly. If you had different preferences than the way the menu item came they would always be willing to change it up just how you liked it and you rarely had to wait a while before your order was ready. We ordered multiple different items as time went on and was always happy with the fresh ingredients and flavors.

I have worked at MUSC longer than the this cafe has existed. It's been reviewed in Yelp for 7 years. I never heard about it and only found it because my regular coffee joint- Bottleneck- took vacation the first week of January. Standing outside where my coffee truck usually stands, I went to Yelp for 'coffee near me' and found Hollings Cafe. I have even walked underneath the "cafe" arrow sign a dozen times or more without noticing it. This establishment is adorable and a bit quirky. The process is 'order now, pay later when your order is ready'. I arrived to find about 10 people standing around inside and in the hallway in no particular line and had to ask what is the process. All these kind people parted way for me to step right up to the counter to order- they already had. Someone in the line told me he calls ahead to place his order. Also the 'cafe' is located in sort of an alcove where one employee stands behind a short order prep area, and the other one stands at the register and takes orders. I ordered a black iced coffee and a house salad. The coffee was fine. Not Bottleneck level by any means, but solid nonetheless. The salad was fresh and delicious. As many reviewers have mentioned- there is something about the kindness that emanates from this place that will for sure bring me back.

This café is a must-go for all coffee lovers! The coffee is seriously the best I've ever had. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. I would highly recommend this café to anyone looking for a great cup of coffee!

Super clean, friendly staff, the owners run the business that always makes it better. Had a turkey club on wheat it was fantastic the bread was beyond fresh. They have breakfast items soup sandwiches, a daily special, I think they do hamburgers on Wednesday, they have tea and fountain drinks, as well as bottled beverages and some fast grab food items, as well as freshly made to order items. This is a small cafe located inside the hollings Cancer treatment center at MUSC. It's clean family run open during the week until 3 p.m. the prices are fantastic!

Jose and Wendy are the best people you'll ever meet. They fed me almost every day for the year and a half I worked in the building. Not once did I ever see either of then without a smile on their face. The food is tasty and reasonably priced, and what they're able to produce in such a small space is nothing short of incredible. They brought a small slice of joy to every morning.
