CLUTCH Coffee Bar — Restaurant in Columbia

I couldn’t be more excited that Clutch Coffee has FINALLY made its way to Columbia, SC because that’s exactly what we needed. This coffee bar offers EVERYTHING that ranges from coffee to Italian sodas and their hours are prime for those of us professionals that need a coffee fix past five and can’t find any single coffee shop open. Their staff are so kind and they truly get me excited to get my coffee and other drinks in the morning, during a lunch break, after my workout, and even when I need to crank out an assignment at night. Their founder, Darren, is also incredibly kind and knowledgeable about every drink on the menu and has really cultivated such a warm and welcoming.environment with his staff. They are only a drive thru but that is amazing for people like myself who can barely squeeze five seconds out of their day to go get their favorite drinks. I cannot wait to check out the rest of the menu, but so far, everything I’ve tried has...

Also leadership needs to be there during the first couple of days because I was not greeted or offered an apology or even thanked. It was a very cold experience on this cold day. Wouldn’t recommended...

I 100/10 recommend trying this coffee shop. I personally love the star dust energy drink. I tend to go 4 times out the week to get this energy drink, considering I work a demanding job. This energy drink helps not only get me going, but taste perfect. I also, recommend using their app if you are scared about not liking the drink, the app will give you enough points to try a coffee and other drinks, just not a energy drink or blended drink. It is such a friendly and nice environment to witness in the morning, especially if you're not a morning person. Gabbie, Alysha, and Lindsey have been great people to see in the mornings and afternoons, and they will make sure the drink is to the best of...
