The Coffee Connection

There is nothing quite like a steaming, warm cup of coffee to give motivation in the morning or to provide rejuvenation in the afternoon. Whether hot or cold, bold or mild, the classic “cup of joe” has become an important staple in our American culture. As a multi-billion dollar bean-grinding industry, coffee, for many, is a very important start of each day. Sharing conversation, important or not, while enjoying a great cup of coffee during breaks or meetings is not only a treat but a tradition for many. Café culture has evolved to being more than just a place to eat and drink; it has become a place where colleagues meet, couples date, students work, and friends chat and socialize.  

The Coffee Connection, located at 6903 St. Andrews Road, in Columbia, is one of the most innovative, cutting-edge cafés in the Midlands. The unique hot spot offers a wonderfully aromatic atmosphere of health, local support, positive vibes, art and relaxation. At the Coffee Connection, the relationship between the coffee cup and the consumer extends far beyond just basic nourishment. Not only can you order any number of signature drink options served to order, but you can purchase locally produced organic health products and natural supplements. Café patrons can also enjoy playing pool or darts, and relaxing in the lounge. With free Wi-Fi, eclectic décor, open seating, music and more … there is something for people of all ages. 

Owned by Ashley Adams and Justin Moon, one of the main purposes of the Coffee Connection’s existence is to support local businesses by carrying and offering their products and giving back to the local community. There is a wide variety of unique items on hand to fill one’s needs, including healthy alternatives to coffee, such as organic herbal teas, kratom drinks, and anti-inflammatory blends infused with CBD (cannabidiol) oil, honey, B-12 complex, mushroom cream, coconut powder, or cacao. South Carolina CBD oil, hemp flower, essential oils, and locally made herbal tinctures are available as well as coffee from Indah Coffee, located in the Columbia area. Need the perfect piece of jewelry for that important person in your life? Coffee Connection has it! Come and browse the café’s impressive art and jewelry selections created by local artists and choose a gift that will make someone’s day.
