Summer Moon Coffee — Restaurant in Five Forks

Summer Moon Coffee in Simpsonville, SC, is a special place that combines a cozy atmosphere, great coffee, and friendly service. When you walk in, you feel right at home with the warm, woodsy decor. The fireplace is a great spot to relax, especially when it's cold outside.

The coffee at Summer Moon is amazing. They roast their beans using a wood-fired process, which gives the coffee a unique and rich flavor. Whether you like drip coffee, espresso, or their special Moon Milk lattes, you will love it. The Moon Milk is a sweet, creamy mixture made from secret ingredients that make the lattes extra delicious. My go-to is usually a black cold brew and honey and the nitro cold brew. Twice a day visits are not uncommon for me.

You won't find a friendlier barista group. They are always happy to help you choose a drink if you need suggestions. There are many options on the menu, including choices for people who don't eat dairy or want vegan options. The pastries and snacks are fresh and tasty, and go perfect with your coffee. The seating area is spacious, which is great for working, meetings, or just reading a book. Wi-Fi and lots of power outlets, making it a good place for doing homework or work. If you're in a hurry, their drive-thru is super convenient for getting great coffee on the go and their app makes it even easier to pick up. They also have outdoor seating, so you can enjoy your coffee outside on nice days.

Must-visit for coffee lovers. The wonderful coffee, cozy atmosphere, and friendly service make it my favorite spot. Whether you live nearby or are just visiting, you'll love this coffee shop. Highly...

I had a strange experience at the Summer Moon Coffee drive-thru today in Simpsonville on my 1st wedding anniversary. We pulled up as the third car in line, and after we ordered a single quick drink for my wife, a car lined up behind us. However, the car in front of us inexplicably stopped before reaching the corner to the pickup window, staying right in front of us without moving forward or letting anyone else reach the ordering speaker.

After waiting a while and thinking they might be distracted, we honked—just a quick reminder. Still no movement. We gave it another honk, but even then, the car didn’t budge. After a few more quick honks, they finally turned the corner to pick up their drink, but then took a long time chatting with the employee. By the time it was our turn, we figured they must’ve said something about us because the manager greeted us at the window with a cold, annoyed attitude, asking, “Were you the one that was honking?” in a way that felt accusatory and rude.

I said “yes,” but her tone made it clear that they assumed we were being rude, even though we were just trying to keep the line moving for ourselves and the people behind us. The manager handed us our drink and added, “Well, the person in front of you wanted to pay for your drink,” in a sarcastic tone, making the situation even more uncomfortable.

While we were grateful for the free drink, the interaction left a bad taste. We love the coffee here, but this experience with the staff was awkward and disappointing, especially on a day we wanted...

THIS IS A PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT!!! Summer Moon is the best at what they do! I WAS a patron to another brand coffee store until I happened upon Summer Moon roughly two months ago. I visited the store today and was Wowed again by the overwhelming packed parking lot at the store. I wanted to dine in to see if the service matched what I always get at the drive thru. I was unable to park and go in, but the drive thru is always a pleasant option! As I drove up to the window I was greeted by the same young man as before with a HUGE smile and a warm greeting!!!

His name is Erik and he makes my day every time I'm in the drive thru!!! I told him he was AMAZING AND HE MADE MY DAY TODAY!!! He is always helpful with suggestions on menu items, and I appreciate that so much. Please keep him at the window because no one can do it better! I wanted to tip him just for being nice, but I didn't because I don't know the tipping policy. So instead, I called in to speak with a manager to give Erik a KUDOS for a SUPERB job!

I spoke with Will and expressed my appreciation of Erik and decided to also write this review so Will can share it with the team. Will thank you so much for listening as I went on and on about how AMAZING Erik is, but I had to get it out! You all have a customer for the...
