When I meet up with friends for coffee or need to get work done, this is my go-to spot! The manager kindly gifted me a bag of their ground coffee to take home, and my husband and I love it!“

“Ive been coming here since they announced their opening on instagram. Im very happy the chose to open up in Columbia!! Their cakes and desserts are top quality, they look beautiful and taste even better. I don’t have a big sweet tooth but this place is the exception for me. Their coffees and teas (hot and iced) taste refreshing, and the atmosphere is very cozy. The staff are very polite, courteous and respectful. I try to come here every weekend, it’s my favorite place to go to. 10000/10 experience every time ♥️♥️♥️“

My faves have been the eggplant orzo, the red curry noodles and the blue cheese slaw but seriously everything I get from here is delicious. And great customer service!“

“I just want to offer a thank you to the gourmet shop for y'all's help today. My wife and I have eaten here for years and love it. So when it came time for our daughter's baptism this morning when we found out the Gourmet Shop offered a catering menu it became a no brainer for us. The catering options on a per head basis for 12 people were an incredible value. Our guests, many of whom do not live downtown now want to make it a point to visit the restaurant. Thank you again for making it easy for two parents of a 6 month old to throw a great party for our family.“

“The experience is always top notch at Azalea! From fun seasonal options to a cozy place to sit and read…10 out of 10!“

“I just visited this coffee shop for the first time with my daughter. She has raved about the atmosphere and the comfortable feeling she gets when she visits for a coffee and a snack. So, I ordered a hot chocolate and a chocolate chip scone to go. The barista was very friendly, and I did find the atmosphere to be comfortable. I like the old wood floors and the homey feeling inside. I drank the hot chocolate on the way home, and it was delicious. I saved the scone for tonight, and I am eating it as I type this review. This may be the best scone I’ve have ever had. It has the right texture without being dry and just enough chips without being overloaded. Delicious! The next time I’m near USC I’ll be sure to pop in and grab another treat!“

“Food is good but service is horrible. They CONSISTENTLY leave items out of my delivery order and then won't answer the phone when you call😡“

“Was there for brunch. It was delicious!“

“Always enjoy the smoked turkey horsey! Great atmosphere and, as always, friendly staff.“

“What I recommend is that you make your workers at the gas pumps put some soap and water in a bucket and clean up these nasty gas pumps! All they do is sit in their butt in that little building doing nothing!! Out of all the Sam’s Clubs gas stations in Columbia this is the nastiest & dirtiest! You gotta do better!!“

“The food is always outstanding!! Not sure what they put in the grits but they are addictive!!!“

“I go here a lot since it’s near my house. They have good service and the workers are friendly. The food is always great and it’s a very efficient spot. My favorite thing to get here is the half and half macaroni and cheese and tomato soup with bread. Everything I’ve tried is very well made and delicious!“

“First time there love the carts n smooth floor“
