Such a cute hidden gem, and women owned! We stopped by just to try a different coffee shop and they don't disappoint. They had plant based milks which is great. A lot of small bites to choose from. We enjoyed the macaroons. The service was quick and efficient. Ambiance was relaxing, loved the decor. Definitely a must try! read more

A cute coffee shop with reasonably priced and delicious drinks, a welcoming environment, and several spots to chill with friends or study or read. Service is kind and fast and the restaurant and bathroom are both clean and especially welcoming to women. We went for St. Patrick's day and were very impressed with the selection of specialty drinks. I'd suggest the hot chocolate. read more

Azalea Coffee Bar - Secret Garden iced tea and raspberry scone ; interior - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

They have unique and fun drinks here. Now if you're not a big coffee drinker they do have a few options from matcha to chai and just teas. I've come here a few times with my mom and friends. I love the building super cute and pink and it's a plus it's women owned and lgbtq friendly. I will say personally customer service has never stood out to me but all my coffee drinker friends love the drinks here so worth checking out. Last time I came I ordered a special chai that came with sweet potato syrup and toasted marshmallow it was different and delicious. read more

Love this coffee shop ! Good matcha and cutest setup. You can sit outdoors or indoors and it has such sweet customer service. I definitely recommend this spot to Columbia visitors read more

A personal favorite! On my last visit their Queen Cake Latte stole the show--creamy, spiced perfection a playful king cake twist with the cutest baby topper. The vibe here is joy: bright decor, walls splashed with color, and a jaw-dropping mural outside that's Instagram gold. Add in the warm, inclusive energy of its woman & LGBTQ-owned team, and you've got a space that feels both uplifting and welcoming. Don't skip it! read more

Amazing vibes, delicious coffee & very unique seasonal/specialty coffee menu. Loved the vegan options. This place is lovely inside and out def worth a stop. Loved the local initiatives as well read more

How CUTE and AESTHETIC is this place?!?!? (check out my photos and all of the other photos - omg) ^Such a fun, sweet, and relaxing vibe when you walk in. On top of that, the drinks are delicious and have the best names and ingredients! One suggestion I have (which I told the staff inside as well when I went in), is to include more gluten free food options. I think that would make this coffee bar quite literally perfection. read more

They were a pop up at a wedding i attended. It was an outdoor wedding and cold so people wanted coffee, but they were adamant about starting at a specific time. As a result, they held up the wedding and when told that they were, they made a snide remark back. On a side note, they had time to make a random coffee to take instagram photos for. I will give it to them the coffee was good. Just the way they held up the wedding and the way they went about it (coming off as rude) is why I'm giving them 2 stars total. read more

Azalea Coffee Bar - Oatmilk coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Azalea Coffee Bar is such a gem! We visited on a Saturday (late) morning and found it moderately busy. The interior decor was incredibly cute - pink floral wall murals, cozy furniture, plants, string lights, etc. The menu featured exciting signature coffee drinks, and they also had a bunch of seasonal specials. My friend and I both chose the Olympian (seasonal), which was a blueberry cream cold brew with sprinkles. This was absolutely delicious and impressively strong. Service was friendly and the ambiance was calm and pleasant. I ended up going back the next day to try the (iced) Open Door, which was also delicious. Again, the coffee was very strong and I loved the rosemary flavor. Overall, big fan of Azalea Coffee Bar - will definitely be returning! read more

I always love visiting azalea. The decor, music, and staff are always relaxing/ pleasant/ nice and the coffee is great, too. I do wish there was a more robust food service available, but alas I go to coffee shops for coffee and not food. I also love supporting small businesses, especially women- owned! read more

Supporting a small female owned business is a must in my book! I was thrilled to try Azalea. We stopped in around 730a needing 5 lattes. We ordered a mix of iced lattes, hot lattes and three of them were different specialty drinks. Service was FAST and friendly. I was impressed by how quick all of the beverages were made. I ordered the Queen Bee with oat milk and it's been the best latte I've had in the area. I brought my son an iced latte which held up perfectly for nearly 2 hours. Highly recommend. read more

I used to be a regular at Lazy Daisy, but once I discovered Azalea Coffee Bar, I've been coming here ever since. Their coffee is sooo good! The interior design is super cute and there's plenty of space to sit and work on your laptop. Every visit has been a great experience thanks to the amazing customer service. The baristas are always very sweet and welcoming. The only small downside is that I wish their drinks came in bigger sizes, I always want more because they're that good! Overall though, this place is wonderful and has easily become my go-to coffee spot. Highly recommend! read more

This is a really cool coffee shop! The interior is very unique, the staff was really friendly, and the coffee was pretty good as well. I'd definitely recommend as a place to stop in, grab a cup of coffee, converse with friends, or perhaps hit the books! read more

Listen, Azalea's was packed on a Friday. I came with a colleague to have a meeting over coffee and vibes, and there were no seats available other than the ones around the counter of the service area. We were finally able to secure a table. I loved seeing this business thrive!   I loved the dishes in which the beverages are served. I ordered a mother's day hot. I started to try the justice beverage, but that chocolate was calling my name. Next time, justice will be my drink of choice because that one sounds delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed my hot mother's day. The baristas who were working on that Friday really were glowing because the beverages were on point. Also, if there's no surrounding street parking, there may be available spots in the back of the building. read more

Yay, found my go to coffee spot while in Columbia . Their lattes are delicious, very smooth and great crema without being bitter. I also appreciate that they are not scolding hot so the flavor is front and center. Although it takes us a 15 minute drive to get there, at this point we don't even want to mess around with another place just to be disappointed. Very cute interior too and friendly staff. Not a lot of food options but I'm here for the coffee so it doesn't bother me read more

There are some places that that take things and execute them at a higher level and some that take the creative route and offer new combinations. This place does a bit of both. Their drinks are interesting and even the names they came up with are a bit quirky yet cool. According to them, as much as can be, their products are sourced from other women owned businesses. We tried a couple of different drinks as well as some of the pastry offerings. The coffees and teas were very good. The pastries are sourced from other local companies. We tried the First Lady, talk show, and queen bee drinks I believe. They have great prices and even offer discounts to teachers as they are in close proximity to several schools. Overall it's everything you'd imagine a small coffee shop would be and it's nice to have something other than a Starbucks to enjoy. read more

I love coffee! So any coffee shop that I get to try is a win for me. Immediately what caught my eye was the cute, pink and bright decor. I loved it. The inside is not big but it does have seating and even a nice sofa area with a cute background. The menu is not big at all which I usually look forward to when I visit a coffee shop but the choices they did have were unique and creative! I ordered two pastries; a coffee cake muffin and the cheddar chive scone which was huge! They were each $4 which was on the pricey side to me personally. The coffee cake muffin was delicious and moist. The scone although big had some flavor but could have used some moisture ( I know what scones are and their texture but it was on the dry side). They give you the option of warming them which I did. The staff was very friendly and helped with any questions I had. I'll definitely be back! read more

The orange you glad is a cute latte with 2-3 shots espresso, orange flavoring, and chocolate syrup with your choice of milk. Very tasty and fun drink. The teas are good too. Nice girls at a woman owned business in a flowery room. I just wish they would fix their leaky toilet :( read more

Great coffee. Nice atmosphere. The service was good too. I liked that they had seasonal selections.

Me and a few friends went here not too long ago and it was wonderful. Staff were all very nice/customer service was great, the atmosphere was lovely and the menu had many great choices. Only issue I came across was a few molded blueberries in my parfait, which I picked out and decided not to bring up as to not disturb the kind staff there seeing as I resolved the issue myself, however besides that everything was amazing. Loved the hot chocolate as well. 11/10, most likely will go again and highly recommend if you want a peaceful break from the outside world. read more

This coffee shop is sooo cute. The vibes are incredible from the decor to the names of the drinks. The drinks are really good and they have Ally & Eloise pastries, which are delicious. I got the open door drink, which is an iced latte with oat milk and rosemary vanilla syrup. I also got an Ally & Eloise chocolate scone that they heated up. I don't know how often they do it since I don't live in Columbia, but they had a little market in front with some black-owned businesses this morning (Sunday). There were at least 3 vendors and it looked like 1 more person was setting up and this was around 9:30-10 am. If you live in Columbia or find yourself in the area, definitely check out this coffee shop! read more

This is a stellar coffee shop. It is very tastefully decorated with a floral pink plant theme. It has great space for sitting and finding a nook to work or chill in. The coffee is delicious, I got an iced latte with the Vanilla Rosemary syrup and it was perfect. The vibes are good, and they have a feminist thing going on. The baristas were friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

The best coffee I've had out of all the coffee shops in the city. No where else can I drink something from the menu without dumping a bunch of sugar/creamer in it to cover the taste. No need to memorize a paragraph of a custom order. Read menu, select drink, and you are good. Fast too, drink and a snack took no longer than three or four minutes. Finally while it is small its a nice and cozy vibe, all that's missing is a crackling fireplace. read more

Super disappointed. Walked an hour to what seemed like the best coffee shop in Columbia, SC. Only to receive a drink with very poor milk quality. I don't need latte art, I need properly steamed milk by a competent barista. I'm not sure why anyone would look at this and think this is acceptable. Micro foam for days.... It has to be terrible training because I could hear the barista obliterating the milk and the sound alone should warrant serious concern that they didn't know it wasn't good and should have dumped the milk and remade it. NOT A THIRD WAVE OR SPECIALTY COFFEE SHOP. read more

This place is nothing short of amazing. This visit was my first time here , I described what kind of coffee I enjoy to the barista and was suggested the iced "justice" ...it was PERFECT. It was very creamy and rich, I didn't need to add a thing to it. It wasn't too sweet or too strong. The staff was friendly and the aesthetic was so cute. I've tried many coffee spots but this one is special. I love the women empowerment theme and all of the souvenirs and goodies they have for sale. I purchased a sticker ! read more

No shame on chain coffee shops, but COLA definitely was in need of another local coffee shop. Azalea has easily become one of my top local favorites here in Columbia. First of all, I absolutely love the mission statement of this shop. Azalea is truly here to serve the community, providing baked goods and selling other products from other local, female entrepreneurs to the area. I have always been welcomed by a friendly face, which makes it so lovely to be there. Their speciality coffee is absolutely amazing. Who knew rosemary and espresso could pair so beautifully? Prices are very reasonable and exactly how much you'd pay at Starbucks, if not cheaper. Please please please stop by if you have the chance! Can I also mention how ADORABLE the interior is?! read more
