Charleston Coffee Exchange
2875 Ashley River Rd, Charleston, SC
Crema's Take
“Charleston Coffee Exchange roasts beans with serious intention and lets you taste multiple origins before committing, making it a haven for anyone genuinely curious about what they're drinking rather than just grabbing caffeine. The space itself is warm and deliberately designed for lingering—expect to sink into a chair for hours with a pour over—though service can be maddeningly inconsistent depending on who's behind the counter. If you hit it on a good day with a patient barista, it's worth seeking out; on an off day, you might leave frustrated.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Slow-sit spot. Light food on the menu. Opens early.
