“Finally got the chance to stop in for a sandwich and coffee. I got the turkey, cheddar & apple sandwich, a side of potato salad, a mocha duck frozen coffee and a lemon poppy seed muffin. I'm saving the muffin for this evening but everything so far was really good. Will definitely be back. Staff was super friendly as well.”

“Absolutely LOVED this place! 🤍 This was my first time visiting, and the lady working was so kind and helpful. She made us feel so welcome and took the time to help us decide what to order.
I hate to say it... but I honestly think it's better than Starbucks! ☕ And that's coming from someone who loves Starbucks. Everything tasted fresh, the coffee was made perfectly, and the cozy small-business atmosphere was exactly what I was looking for.
I ordered a vanilla latte with mocha swirled around the top and vanilla cold foam, and it was AMAZING. My best friend got a similar drink with strawberry foam, and hers was just as delicious. Both drinks were smooth, flavorful, and didn't upset our stomachs afterward like some coffee places can.
If you're looking to support a local coffee shop with incredible drinks, friendly service, and a warm, relaxing vibe, I highly recommend Cryptid Coffee. We'll definitely be back! ☕❤”

“I drive by here every day. Figured I’d give it a shot at breakfast one morning. First off the food is outstanding. The prices are incredibly reasonable. The staff is more than friendly and welcoming. I’ve been going several times a week now. I sit down and a half filled to go cup of coffee appears at my table, exactly how I want it. I love coming here. I highly recommend this place.”

“I generally have nothing but nice things to say about this location. Every time I go, the staff are always wonderful with great customer service, especially for a hectic place like the drive through. In my opinion and based off of my experience, they truly deserve recognition for being so considerate. The food is very consistent and cheap, which is what I prefer. I have no complaints. Overall probably my favorite Hardee's location around town. :)”

“Best Italian I've ever had! Don't waste a visit on burgers and such, go for the pasta you won't regret it! Husband had bacon and penne pasta, I had mussels, shrimp and class in red sauce, both with just the right amount of spice. Fabulous! Natalie and Ludovico were super friendly and hospitable as well, can't wait to go back. Bring your own wine!”

“I met Freddie at the Aiken Farmer's Market this past Saturday. Being completely honest, I wasn't intending to stop by his booth, as I was just finishing up and leaving the market; but he invited my friend and I in to chat coffee, and boy, am I glad he did! Freddie's knowledge and passion for both horses and coffee, as well as his ability to engage and connect, is absolutely delightful. I know next to nothing of horses, but as a fellow small business owner who donates a portion of profits to my preferred cause, I couldn't help but feel a deep appreciation for Freddie's mission. Anyone who has that much heart and compassion is worthy of my attention for at least a few minutes! Now, as far as the coffee itself - Freddie took the time to explain various aspects of roasting, processing, etc., and I walked away with a greater knowledge of beans (of which I always figured I had a decent understanding - but there's always more to learn!). As a decaff drinker, I purchased a bag of "Brazilian Royal Select Decaf – Medium Dark Roast," and made a cup the following morning, with a dash of half-and-half. It is 🤌 *chef's kiss*! Smooth, just the right amount of dark/richness for my taste... I have zero complaints, and all the praise. Since moving to Aiken almost two years ago, I've been searching for a local coffee roaster who just "gets" the importance of keeping the beans as close to natural as possible (no chemicals, no added flavors, etc.), and I think I found my guy. If you see Freddie at any local markets, be sure to stop by for a chat - you will leave satisfied, I can almost guarantee! 😊 Thank you, Freddie, for your welcoming aura, your passion and knowledge, and for creating a quality product in which I'm happy to indulge! 🤤☕️”

“Friends suggested we try out this gem and boy are we happy we did. Charming, friendly staff, excellent food's what more could you want?? We will definitely return.”

“Just got my FAVORITE! teriyaki wings always really brighten my day when I have to work on the weekend and when i'm having a bad day during the week! I usually come in during the week when Beth is there (She's amazing!) Loved the girl that was there today that helped me out as well! Everyone is always super nice! My wings are always, literally, I would fight somebody over them🫣😆SOOO GOOD!”

“Wow! I have been sleeping on this place. Finally stopped in today and was super impressed. I hate I found out about it so late because they are about to close the season out. Great ice cream and cake flavors.”

“The wait staff is so friendly and the service is great. Also Eggs Up Grill at McAlister Square has all the menu choices you could possibly want. It's a great place to meet up with friends or family for breakfast or brunch. Highly recommend.”

“THE BEST coffee I always order the White chocolate mocha latte, can't remember exact price but MUCH cheaper than Starbuck's and doesn't taste bitter and scorched Haven't been in awhile, need to get back over”

“Best fresh breakfast sandwiches made with local meats, amazing doughnuts with fresh Bavarian cream…. Making this place a regular stop from now on!!”

“My Aunt was in town and lookjng for a gluten-free restaurant. While there are not many options, this place offered her a gluten-free pizza and we enjoyed our lunch very much. The customer service was great and it was a nice setting and I will definitely be going back with my family. I had the stuffed shells because my mother used to make them for me and they were very delicious and my aunt said the pizza was very good.”

“We had dinner last night and it was fabulous! Our server, Ashley was great! She met our every need! Made sure we were happy and enjoyed! Her personality is on point! Thank you, Ashley! Hope to see you again soon!”

“Love this place! Great food and friendly, attentive staff. You won’t go away hungry or disappointed from Los Compadres!!”

“Quite possibly the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. The whole time eating it I was looking at the Hardee's across the street wondering how they stay on business.”
