The Coffee Shelf,

130 Amicks Ferry Road, Chapin, SC 29036

"Such a cool place bringing together two things that I absolutely love: warm cup of coffee and books! The ambience is great, good coffee and good selection of pastries too."

"I’ve come in multiple times now and I absolutely adore it. The baristas are so sweet and knowledgeable, the menu is creative and has a wide range of options- not to mention delicious! I feel so cozy every time I come in. The owner is very sweet and it was endearing to hear her conversations with the employees. Sadly, I’m moving out of town but I’ll be back whenever I visit!"

"This cute little shop is exactly the place I’d frequent if I lived close, and even in bigger cities I’ve never seen one quite like it! Their drink options are AMAZING: aptly named after well-known book characters, with flavor concoctions to match the vibe! You can escape between tall bookshelves hosting a neighborhood of well-loved tomes for a few minutes while you wait for your drink, and relax into the big couch by the window to soak in your coffee and the first few chapters of whatever book called out to you. The baristas are genuine and friendly, and so excited to share the details of the caffeinated potions they’ve cultivated during their time there. Trust me: take the time to drop in, it’s definitely worth your while."

"I go out of my way for an excuse to come to The Coffee Shelf. The baristas are just cute and adorable and so dang friendly. I have trouble leaving without buying a book. But I have never had a bad experience in this place, with an atmosphere that is just what I need sometimes. Anne's pastries and sandwiches are to die for! Each and every Wednesday, I take my two grandsons there. We read, play checkers and enjoy our drinks. It's becoming a tradition."

"Very friendly baristas. Delicious coffee. I wish I'd had more time to check out books and other offerings!"
