Great coffee, food selection is a bit limited. Service was wonderful. Walkable location. Will go back.

This is the perfect place to grab a sweet treat or fun drink! I always get an iced matcha latte, and they have tons of different flavor syrups to choose from. The environment is great for meeting up with friends, study sessions, or just a quick break. Along with coffees and teas, they also have ice cream and baked goods. read more

Their lattes are always great. The atmosphere is nice and clean. The only downside is that it can get loud inside. read more

Spill the Beans - Luck of the Irish latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

So, this downtown coffee shop is basically living its best "hot mess express" life . The coffee itself? Not too bad--honestly the only thing holding the place together. But the vibe? Imagine walking into a college dorm after finals week. Crumbs on the counters, sticky tables, and an atmosphere that whispers, "clean me!" ‍The bathrooms? Technically not their responsibility... but let's be real--they're sketchy enough to qualify for their own horror movie . You don't just wash your hands in there, you walk out questioning your entire life's choices.The employees? About 80% seem to be professional stand-around specialists . You'll spot them chatting like it's a union break, while a few heroic outliers are working harder than a Roomba in a Lego factory ‍. They deserve medals... or at least a raise... or at least a mop.Once upon a time, this place was clean, cozy, and Instagram-worthy . But now? It's more like... "please don't tag us." Somewhere along the way, management must have slipped on a latte spill and never got back up .Great coffee bad vibes suspicious bathrooms = the most confusing "five stars but secretly two stars" experience downtown. ...and half a Lysol can. read more

The location is big for a coffee house but it was nice to have room and it was still busy. The barista made a great recommendation to keep me close to a SBucks white chocolate mocha and he even convinced me to get it iced, which I loved. Now the taller seats are not super comfortable in my opinion and especially not if you have a little extra back there - which I do. But there are other seating options too. It's downtown, which is walkable for a lot 9-5ers. They have baked goods, ice cream and shakes, not just coffee, so there is something for everyone. read more

Super cute spot! Loved the high ceilings and big windows. Made the corner space feel roomy and open. I ended up claiming a corner spot on a large brown leather sofa. Where I curled up and read, watched movies and blogged for about 3hrs. The girl behind the counter was super helpful. They don't have really anything snack wise for someone that is gluten & dairy free. But they do have almond and oat milk. I got a hot chai latte with oat milk to start and later on an iced latte with oat milk and simple syrup. The WiFi is easy to connect too and the restrooms are clean. There were a lot of students earlier in the day scattered around at different tables studying. And after around lunch larger groups of people came in to hang out. read more

Pretty good coffee. Very minimalist setup, but that's okay when the focus is on the food. The cashier was kinda slow, but the iced coffee was great. I'll try them again. read more

Let's start with the coffee, which is not the best or the worst I've had and I am an avid coffee drinker. The atmosphere of the place is awesome and I love working there on my computer. Every chance I get, having said that it seems like every time I decide to go to work on my computer in the morning Seems like they decide to be closed that day, very random. Their hours are very inconsistent, which makes it hard to plan to go there. only to show up and be disappointed. Management needs to figure out if they want to stay consistent or inconsistent because sooner or later they will be out of business in my opinion. read more

Not for me. Overpriced for syrups you could pick up from Target or Walmart. Meh This particular one was just college age people on laptops so definitely a good Cyber Cafe if that's your thing. read more

The drinks and snacks here are amazing but almost every time I've gone in the past two months they've been closed at random with no explanation. Tried calling to see if they're open but even when they are, they don't pick up the phone. It's a waste of a 20 minute commute. read more

Usually, I order the chai or the dirty chai and I have no complaints, but this past week I ordered a matcha and something was just a bit off about it. Not sure how the matcha is made, but it almost tasted fishy...? Really strange. I recommend less creamer, and maybe use matcha latte power (already sweetened) instead of plain matcha powder? Just a thought! I am a match lover though so it made me sad that I had two sips and had to throw the rest away. BUT I absolutely love their customizable ice cream. The vanilla with fruity pebbles and strawberry is the best!!!!! read more

Cute coffee shop. Best white mocha I have had ever. I'm usually a plain black coffee gal but I didn't care for their plain black coffee taste. There's plenty of space for seating. However, there are only wall plug ins here and there so if you're going to study you have to hunt one down. When you make a purchase the WiFi password is at the bottom of the receipt. The ice cream looked great. They make their own waffle cones and it smelled heavenly. Friendly workers, when it gets busy and the line is long it goes pretty quickly. read more

Spill the Beans in downtown Spartanburg is always a treat. Pop in for ice cream, coffee or both. This spot is always a winner. It's always clean, the staff are always patient, friendly and accommodating. The coffee is always fresh, the lattes and espresso always are great and gives just the perk me up I need. The ice cream is the best wasted calories ever. It's an eclectic vibe, customer base range from students, professionals, locals and tourist.... young and old. Although downtown, parking is not a problem ( there is parking in the front, side and the back). The hot fudge, banana sundae is delightful and the heath and caramel ice cream cone (homemade waffle cone) is amazing. They mix the toppings into the ice cream! The dark roast coffee is so good, I get a bag to take home with me ! This place is on the repeat list for me! read more

Super cute little shop. I still need to try their coffee but I did get ice cream and it was delicious. I got whatever was the go to for the adorable girl at the counter, chocolate with raspberries, and it definitely hit the spot. Sweet but tart. She was very helpful! read more

Cute little downtown Spartanburg coffee shop. There are seats and couches available but be prepared for there to be a lot of people inside. Been in there a few times and there's usually a good amount of students studying no matter the time of day. They provide great options for coffee drinkers. My personal favorite is the ice cream from the shop. They allow you to mix whatever you want so you can create whatever your heart desires. It's always very clean inside and the staff is super nice. It's a great place to come and chill for any reason. read more

Spill the Beans - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Some of the worst lattes I've ever had.. This place needs to revamp and retrain employees desperately.. We walked in and it took some time before the THREE employees even moved.. They stared at us like they didn't feel like working. read more

I'm visiting from out of town and wow the aesthetic of this coffee shop blew me away. I love the minimalism and industrial vibe of Spill the Beans! I can also imagine myself studying here because the noise level is minimal. I might have ordered something not so popular because I was not really impressed with their coffee. I ordered the au laitte, perhaps should have gotten a specialty latte or custard (which they're famous for). Anywho, I love where Spill the Beans is going with their cafe and can't wait to try more of the menu in the future! read more

Best Ice Cream Ever! Plenty of topping varieties. Highly recommend. Right near a college and free water when you're finished. Clean and friendly staff. read more

The ambiance and overall coolness of this place brings the Downtown Spartanburg ice cream scene to a whole other level. The open air space and endless ice cream combination options with mix-in ingredients really sets Spill the Beans apart. I ordered an oreo and vanilla waffle cone, which came up to about $6.00. It was plenty of ice cream and I had to share with my fiance. I would definitely go again. read more

Spill the Beans - Oreo and vanilla - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Fun little ice cream and coffee shop in downtown Spartanburg. Lots of indoor seating, although be prepared for it to be really full (even in the weekends) with students studying. Given the sheer number of folks studying there, the place is eerily quiet. But definitely worth stopping in for some good soft serve! read more

Spill the Beans was my go-to place to study or just wind down after a long day of classes. I don't think I would have graduated from University if Spill the Beans wasn't around! The interior is large and has plenty of spaces for studying or needing a workspace. Baristas are always accommodating and make my drinks in lightning speed. My favorite drink of there's is definitely an iced dirty-chai latte; it has the perfect amount of espresso and chai flavor. The pricing is also student-friendly and did I mention free wifi for guests?! (Just see receipt for wifi password). Thanks Spill the Beans for the pick-me-ups! read more

Love spill the beans! You pick a base for ice cream, either chocolate, vanilla or frozen yogurt, and pick toppings to blend in. I got vanilla with Oreos and brownies. Quick service, decent prices, and just really consistently good ice cream. Spill the beans never lets me down! There's also ample amounts of study spaces and couches, as well as free water which is super nice! read more

A very cool spot to get some great coffee and do some work. I got their caramel macchiato and it was superb! They have really great wifi and plenty of seating. A perfect spot to get some work done! read more

I looooovvveee the coffee here. Out of all the coffee shops in Spartanburg, it has to be my first choice. There is just something about the flavor of the coffee that always draws me back for more. I believe they use Dillanos coffee? Amazing stuff. I usually get a hot or iced latte or the amazing chocolate espresso latte. However they have other delicious items like ice cream and flavors that I'm sure are amazing. I mean, I've smelled the homemade waffle cones when I've came in a couple of times, and they smell divine. Ice cream is probably the next new item to try for me. read more

Spill the Beans - Chocolate espresso milkshake. Amazing - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Boyfriend waited 35 minutes for his coffee which was mediocre at best. I Waited for 40 minutes for my coffee just for the girl to tell me it was going to take longer because they need to refill the espresso beans.. after that she said that they are out of oat milk(I can't drink whole milk and almond milk is gross). I wanted a refund because I wasn't going to get the drink I paid for and the girl said she doesn't know how to do refunds. VERY disappointed. read more

I love the coffee of this place, very rich, great aroma, flavor, international grain beans, cosmopolitan place, well decorated, cozy, friendly, good service, free Wifi, park on the street. read more

Love this spot! I'm not a good coffee critic because I love a super sweet paper white coffee but they make it the way I love anyway. Great atmosphere for studying or to chill with good music on the best couch in the universe. read more

Absolutely the very best mocha I think I've ever had! My sis from out of town agreed. The Aztec Mocha is soooo chocolaty amazing it makes a rainy day feel full of rainbows and warm sunshine- truly, a MUST try! The staff is super sweet, helpful and just so stinkin adorable. If this shop was closer (or on the westside- hint hint!!) i think I'd be there every evening. Their lattes are delish too! read more

In true Lorelei Gilmore fashion, as I drove into Spartanburg I found the nearest coffee shop and parked my car. As this is my first time in the city, I wasn't sure what to expect -- but it's adorable! Very glad I stopped here. Was able to get a bit of work done before my training at the United Way. Would recommend for business professionals and families! The ice cream looks delicious -- and my coffee certainly was. read more

This is my all-time favorite ice cream place! Better than Brusters hands-down. Nice place to go in the summer to enjoy ice cream. Would recommend! read more

Favorite coffee shop in the city, love the iced vanilla lattes! The store itself is big and cozy and is the perfect spot to hangout for a while. read more

Two stars cause the girl was nice but I just paid over $4 for a small hot chocolate that they made with hot cocoa mix and water. No whip or anything read more

Would be 3.5 stars but Yelp hates the half-sized review and rounding down because I'm in that kind of mood. So first the good. Great space. Cool atmosphere. Looks like the kind of place you could post up all day with a book and enjoy some tasty food and coffee. But then you learn that there's like 4 muffins only for food and then the coffee is pretty meh and suddenly it's maybe a place to walk by and say hey that's a cool space maybe I'll stop back in next August sometime. Specifically, the drip coffee tasted like the sad combination of a dark roast and vinegar. My wife got a cappuccino and knew she was in a bad way when my man working the steamer just hammered the milk full blast till foam poured over the side and gave a little satisfied nod before dumping it into the espresso. read more

Friendly staff and a very pleasant atmosphere! You are able to design your ice cream to your liking with a large selection of mix-ins. It's a great time conducive to great conversation. read more

Amazing deserts and a pretty decent cup of coffee. Great hang out spot!!! Super friendly helpful staff and great prices

Wonderful location that is downtown and in walking distance to so many things. I love how they have a huge garage door that can be lifted on warmer days and bring the outdoors inside. It makes long work/study sessions so much nicer. The coffee is good and a good price, but the atmosphere is truly what makes me come back each time. I haven't gotten ice cream or the shakes, but from what I can tell people love them. If you're coming to work, they have plenty of seating options and outlets with USB ports all over. read more

Spill the beans needs to hire more baristas. The last two days I've been they've had one person running the entire store, and today it was during lunch rush. It is unacceptable to expect one person to run the register and do multiple coffee orders. I was getting stressed out watching her. If the store is understaffed management needs to lend a hand until there are new hires. The young person did the best they could on my order but both drinks were sub par compared to what a 6 dollar coffee drink should taste like and this is NOT the fault of the barista because they are simply juggling too many things. I will not be supporting this place and I will be telling my other friends who work in the service industry of this mistreatment as well. Treat your employees better. read more

They honestly have some of the best ice cream I've ever had. I love that there's so many things you could blend into your ice cream. It's a very refreshing treat if you've been walking around the beautiful Falls Parks which is where this place is located. This location is super convenient. They have a nice hipstery vibe inside. Spill the Beans is very dark and cozy. read more

Cute place, small, but hood coffee. Not ideal for working, but totally for chatting, book reading or just taking it all in
