    Cute coffee shop right on river st! The sign out front is what drew me in. I got a hot tiramisu-gingerbread latte and my boyfriend got the espresso martini. Espresso martini was very coffee forward, not at all creamy. Mine was warming and tasted like the holidays, not overly sweet. Inside is quaint and quiet. The girl working was very helpful and efficient although she was the only one working! Worth checking out if you're walking and need a pick me up!

    Frozen Coffee cookies butter flavor.

    Ayo, let me put y'all on; Vic's Café just blessed me with a butter cookie frozen coffee that had me questioning everything I thought I knew about caffeine. Smooth as silk, perfectly balanced, and that butter cookie flavor? Elite. None of that artificial nonsense; just rich, velvety goodness that hit every note right. If you're in Savannah and not pulling up to Vic's, you're playing yourself. Live, love and laugh - Sha

    Nice small shoppe on River St. Nice pastry selection. They even heat muffins and toast bagels. Coffee comes in 3 sizes. Iced or hot. Alcohol is served. Service is nice and polite. The place is small with tables and chairs in the back though. No TVs or music which was a nice change. Like most places in Savannah they don't open until 9am.

    London fog, small.
    Rachel H.

    I really liked this place! Two lovely servers and a perfect London fog on an unusually cold Savannah Sunday. About $7 with tip.

    Apple Cider drink

    The place seems to always be packed but for good reason! They have great variety of coffee, and best of all, spiked coffee! The particular one I had was warm apple cider it was delicious and warmed me up! But the popular one that they ran out was spike tiramisu latte! Deff would recommend.

    Bagels

    Old Savannah feel as you walk in. Original stone walls and wood floor. Nicely appointed barista station, service area, and ample, cozy seating. If you wish coffee libations- there many options. I went for an iced almond-milk latte. They also had some very interesting and fun baked goods. French toast muffin, for example. Also several flavors of pastries cinnamon rolls, tarts and even bagels. As a gal who lives in NYC for many years - I know a good bagel. I tried their everything. It was good. (Not quite NYC quality, but good.) This is a great place to grab n go or sit in. Service was solid and respectful.

    Great service. The staff was absolutely lovely and perfectly friendly. The coffee was ok. I've had better, I've had worse. I needed some caffeine and a place to sit for a spell, so it fit the bill. It was a nice place to sit out a rainstorm.

    Great barristas, delicious coffees, many walk-ins, some indoor seating and a narrow standing bar
    Rich S.

    We wandered up to Vic's Coffee Bar on River Street, and they do mean "bar". We formulated a Baileys mocha, which we all had (for a pretty penny). Delicious and well-made! It wasnt on their menu, but they welcomed our "invented" recipe, and even came up with a quicker way to describe it from their menu offerings. There's a small seating area indoors in the back, and a narrow standing bar across from the barristas. Most people get theirs to go, and yes, you can legally stroll around that part of Savannah with your alcoholic bev. A fellow out front invited us to the upstairs bar/restaurant for the view. The barrista also said we could go right up in the elevator and hang out for the 4th floor view, but when we got there, we learned that Savannans can look askance with the best of them, and we were asked firmly not to hang around after looking out the windows. To be fair, it's rather upscale up there, certainly not as casual as we were. I asked them to let us sit out on the back terrace, and we were the only ones under their umbrellas on the mysterious Factor's Row, not labeled on google maps, a scenic level of brick and iron walkways between the river and Bay Street. We blurred awhile in our Baileys in the cool weather, and saw some nice historic facades and a lion fountain! You know, i started this as a four-star review, on account of being asked not to hang out at their nice 4th-floor tables, but the view we had was lovely and rare, and d*mn, those spiked coffees were delicious!

    Great service very friendly. More of a tourist trap than a coffee shop. Food okay and casual .

    Under staffed and poor planning. I believe there were 2 staff members and a manager.  1 staff member and manager wasn't present most of the time we were there waiting... and we had to wait! Apparently, they were having to pull stock. As early as it was and the fact that it wasn't busy, there's no reason that they should have been having to pull stock... unless it was due to poor planning the day before or prior to them opening. It was over a 15-minute wait for 2 frozen coffees.

    Carmel macchiato and Affogato.
    Mandi W.

    Stopped in for a coffee treat. I had the employee make me an Affogato (ice cream + espresso) She used the ice cream furthest to the exit and behind the ice cream in front. It was so tasty! My husband is a macchiato fan. He sat there and drank the whole thing, slowly. Plus, it's one the few places on River street with a bathroom and air conditioning!!

    Mini Pecan pie, strawberry banana smoothie
    Nicole V.

    Loved Vic's coffee house! They offered variety of coffee, smoothies, and even beer! They also had small sweets. For big appetite, they have their main restaurant next door. This coffee shop is located in historic downtown area, and has view of river right up front.

    Latte
    Tiff H.

    Separate from Vic's on the River, the coffee house was just a-ok! Coffee was mediocre and the wait was long. But it was cold outside and we NEEDED something warm. Two lattes it is. The lattes were fine - nice and warm to hold, too. Prices are reasonable, as others have noted in their reviews - so I guess I can't be mad at the overall quality. My biggest complaint was the wait. So, it was pre-COVID so it was ok to fill a coffee shop to capacity and boy, was it at capacity. It took FOREVER to get our drinks. I guess it just gave us more time to wait inside the heated shop (it was FREEZING outside) although there is limited seating inside (well, or it was because it was packed so there was no seating available). At the end of the day, it didn't help that it was cold outside since everyone was packed inside buying coffee to warm up. But if you're looking for something warm to drink without breaking the bank, Vic's is your shop!

    Is this a good place to work or study?

    I would think so! Most of the traffic is by the coffee/cash counter and that is right at the entrance. The tables are all the way in the back and away from the foot traffic. The tables are small though, bistro style, but the bench seating is pretty… Read more

    When it comes to visiting Savanah, admittedly I've come to expect only the best culinary…read moreexperiences; and, casual though it may be, Goose Feathers did not disappoint. Open only until 2:00 PM, if you're looking for breakfast, brunch or lunch, this is the place to be. Arriving at just about noon, the place was packed, but not unpleasantly so, with customers that quickly moved through the ordering process, past the register, and to the ample seating, of their own choosing (with limited outdoor seating available; but not preferable at the time, due to the spotty showers that also choose to attend). Beverages are provided as payment is being made, leaving no thirst unquenched. Needless to say, seating is immediate. With a cup of rich, flavorful, house blend coffee in hand, my daughter, Son in Law, and I found a seat with a great view of the market activities happening outside only moments before our meals were served. The Italian Panini, chock full of succulent mildly spicy meats and lettuce, covered proportionately with dressing (yes, I was given my own bite size sample) , was my daughter's choice; a visually appealing (although not personally sampled) breakfast platter was the pick of the day for my Son in Law; and, Salmon BLT, composed of one thick, juicy piece of salmon, bursting with flavor, accented by a slice of smokey bacon atop a crisp bed of lettuce, slathered in a mild, but tasty, mustard based sauce, between two halves of a soft , flakey, croissant that more than rivaled the size of an average hamburger bun, was my choice. It did not disappoint. At just under $45.00, before tip, all of this seemed like a bargain. If there could be a downside to this experience, and I would say there couldn't be, it would be that, when visiting Savanah, choosing the place to eat jus became a bit more difficult, with Goose Feathers now in contention.

    Food and staff is amazing! Breakfast burritos is now my favorite breakfast burrito in town!…read more Ate it to fast and forgot to take a picture!

    I loved my visit to the Paris Market! I had seen all over social media that this was the place to…read morevisit in Savannah, and for once that turned out to be true. The Paris Market is essentially like an antique shop, museum, and classy cafe all came together at once. It has a perfect vibe and aesthetic that is honestly very calming when you've been rushing around the streets of Savannah prior to walking in the door. I highly recommend getting any flavor of latte (hot or iced) as well as their incredible Parisian hot chocolate. Both were delicious and actually worth the $6/$7 price tag! Then, you can stroll around the main level and lower level shop and admire all of the treasures. I can't wait to visit again soon!

It was sensory overload in the best way - the heavy wood accents made for a timeless, elevated antique feel as you browsed the curated products. I could have purchased everything in this store! I loved the jewelry cases and spent a lot of time browsing the various charms and trinkets. The silk scarf selection was bountiful and I left with the most beautiful and colorful silk scarf that I can't wait to show off this spring! As if the shop could be any more appealing, it had the cutest coffee cafe nestled in the back corner. I got an iced honey lavender latte and macarons to bring home to the family. I wish I had this shop in my own hometown so I could frequent it!
