Mercato Cafe
1101 Via Corso Ave, Simpsonville, SC
Crema's Take
“Mercato Cafe in Simpsonville has carved out a welcoming spot for coffee lovers and remote workers alike, with genuinely good matcha and seasonal specialty drinks that keep regulars coming back, though their espresso-based drinks can be hit-or-miss. The industrial-meets-cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it easy to linger over a pastry, and the cafe clearly puts thought into its space and rotating menu, even if flavor consistency isn't always there. It's the kind of place where you'll want to stay longer than you planned, especially if you're drawn to their matcha or seasonal offerings rather than expecting coffee perfection.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Say what!? This place is so cute!! They are amazing! Staff is wonderful! I had the matcha with simple syrup and it was just so so good! The cheese danish was out of this world! Definitely coming back!
Nice place. It was packed today because of the car show. Service was good and the coffee was nice. The overall vibe is industrial with a semi-cozy vibe. I feel like a nice mural on the wall above the coolers would be cool. Maybe something in an old world style.
