Just visited for the first time today. Very good coffee, fast service, fresh sandwiches and bakery items!

Some of the best coffee in town! Great staff and really good food. This is my go to place for my morning or lunch coffee. I buy their coffee by the pound for home. The daily specials for lunch are always delicious and the broccoli super slaw is to die for… when they have it!

Excellent food and atmosphere. Very helpful staff. I ordered a turkey and avocado pita and it was delicious.

Very good, but not a five. It is a lunch counter with a nice variety of sandwiches. One of the best in the downtown area. If you work in the area, if you haven’t tried it, you should. It clearly beats of the franchise outlets for quick lunch.

My absolute favorite lunch spot in Columbia. Their chicken salad sandwich is the best in town.

This place was dead empty for lunch when I came in. I should have taken that as a sign. I ordered the turkey and apple as suggested by the other reviews. It took too long, the side I wanted was not there and was a small portion size for the price with somewhat stale bread. In its defense it seems like a nice meeting place and has shaded outdoor seating.

I’ve really only gone here for an after lunch coffee to sit outside and read, but for that i’m a big fan! The staff is friendly, coffee good, and atmosphere lively and fun.

Not really a fan of this place, although everyone seems to worship it. The lines for coffee are very long and move at a snails pace– not to get the coffee, but just to even order and pay. Seating is kind of limited as well. My friend and I ordered a sandwich with a side salad each and it took 45 minutes to get our food and the place was not even that crowded on that particular date. The salad(Greek/Mediterranean) was decent but the sandwich was very plain. I haven’t had the coffee but I don’t think it will really change my mind. They do have a regular set of customers, as I often see the same people walking by. I would be willing to give it another chance but there’s not really anything to entice me to come back.

Fantastic food and atmosphere during the lunch hour! I look forward to coming back again and trying other options on the menu.

Drove to Columbia today to try this place for lunch. Had Scott’s chicken salad sandwich. They use oil instead of mayonnaise and it makes a huge difference in taste. Also, it’s served warm instead of cold. Nothing like it no where. The pasta salad side was highly touted by other Unilocalers and it was outstanding. Lots of students at USC eat here so you know it’s affordable. We loved it and will return.

Turkey Green Apple sandwich is the best, and this pasta salad is to die for. So sad this place isn’t open on the weekends. They have mexican coke and lots of different coffees. That pasta salad though…

Best Ice coffee in town — they cold brew it. They also roast their own beans — you can check out the equipment in their downstairs seating. This is definitely not as study friendly as some of the other shops because it’s usually filled with professionals(it’s right across the street from the state house) and the hours are limited. The food is pretty good — the brunch is very good! They have a few tables outside when it’s nice out and the walk from the horse shoe is a nice break from school!

Immaculate Consumption is a great local coffee roaster and they make a few excellent lunch offerings. I only wish they had longer hours! My favorite there is the turkey and green apple sandwich with brie. It is delicious and I never stray from this item no matter how tempting the rest of the menu looks.

Great coffee but the large cup is a little small for me. I like getting the coffee beans from downstairs so I can take them home. Nice vibe here and there are a lot of students and others on their computers.

Love this place. It can get super crowded at times, and during lunch can take bit of a wait for your food. But it’s all worth it because they have magic pasta salad! I have tried times over to re-create that pasta salad to no avail. Smoked turkey veggie is my favorite. When it’s soup season, it’s on. Best tomato basil soup in town. Also, best iced mochas in town. They use powdered Ghiradelli chocolate and blend it.(No crappy syrup I have to stir in with my straw.) Those mochas are amazing. So amazing that almost every day mid morning I go and get one. If you’re in a hurry, best to call ahead and place your order. Even if you’re standing right outside on the sidewalk.

Sadly we don’t have many true coffee shops in Insanely Hot Columbia, but this is one of the few. Located near the State House, this place serves great coffee and has friendly baristas. Most college-area coffee shops play bad music, have crappy ‘art work’ on the wall and douchey baristas that couldn’t get hired on at Starbucks, but this is not that place!

Perfect little place behind the State House. Incredible coffee. The Tuna Salad is made with yogurt instead of mayo so it is lite and reduced fat, but still very tasty. Forget Starbucks, this coffee is house roasted and amazing. Don’t forget to take a pound home!

I agree with one of the other Unilocalers, that this is one of those whole in the wall places. For the longest time when The Nick was still at their old location, I never knew what this place was(as there was not any signage out telling you what this place was) and place always looked closed during the evenings. Not crowded on a Saturday afternoon. Did seem like there was not too much to choose from sandwich wise. Liked how they gave yo cards from a deck of cards to indicate your order(versus a number). Nothing overly the top that would make me go to unless I was doing something in the area.

This coffee shop has great sandwiches, soups and salads! They roast the coffee there and everything tastes homemade. I eat here at least once a week and would especially recommend whatever happens to be the special of the day. Some Wednesdays they have Bahn Mi sandwiches and they are amazing. The Greek salad(add smoked turkey) is a staple of mine. The pasta salad side is beloved by everyone who is a regular and the Senegalese peanut soup is outstanding. The atmosphere is cozy — some of the seating is made up of old church pews. The line can be slow, but food comes out of the kitchen at a good rate. I can always get in and out during my lunch hour. One of my all time lunch favs!

Immac is one of the few hole in the wall type coffee shops left in Columbia. They are usually crowded with students, USC faculty and staff, lawmakers, and other state workers who are within walking distance. They have pretty good prices on lunch, which has a creative selection of soups, salads and sandwiches. For a more secluded lunch, though noisy from the creaking floor, head downstairs to the basement. Good vegetarian options, and I can’t comment in the coffee since I haven’t had any from there in a while.
