“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.“

“Over the past few months you guys on Meeting Street have become my absolute favorite lunch spot! Your sandwiches are great and I’m so impressed by all the specialty sides that are always something different and unique. 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!“

“Alex, was absolutely wonderful!! Great customer service!“

“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!“

“Was there for brunch. It was delicious!“

“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!!“
