Canal Coffee Company
669 Main St, Columbia, SC
Crema's Take
“Canal Coffee Company has earned serious loyalty for their impressive range of sugar-free flavor options and thoughtful staff who genuinely help you find your perfect drink. Beyond the solid coffee and pastries, this spot excels at the full breakfast experience with a welcoming, family-friendly vibe—though service consistency at the drive-thru could use some attention. If you're looking for a local alternative to the chains with baristas who actually care about getting your order right, this Columbia staple delivers both quality drinks and the kind of personal touch that keeps people coming back.”
What to expect

Best coffee/breakfast place around. Amazing customer service. Drinks are made with love daily. I enjoyed the frozen hot chocolate today with a everything bagel that I took home an added Swiss cheese an ham to. Yummy
