Wow. Came to town to visit the Opera House and see Tommy Emmanuel play - went to dinner down the street (mistake) and came here for a drink before the show. 1) Should have had dinner here 2) ordered a scotch and the owner recommended a different brand, finally tried a "flight" and really, really happy with the selection 3) atmosphere is really cool - and not saying that just because of the 3 scotch drinks :-) Excellent place 5 stars... read more

Half Full Cafe And Wine Bar - Scotch Flight - Cafes Near Me - Newberry, South Carolina

What a gem of a place that is well worth the short drive off the interstate! Needing a break and a cup of coffee on our journey back to FL we stopped here around 9pm and we were greeted like "regulars". The coffee and latte we had were excellent and the staff were super friendly. We already had an affinity for the city of Newberry from a prior visit and now for sure we will be back to sit and sip a wine or coffee at this warm and inviting spot our next road trip this way! read more

Absolutely lovely establishment. My friend and I were in the Newberry area and we slid in to get something to warm our tummies. It was pouring down rain and I was so thankful to find this cozy nook. There is so much good here I would recommend definitely checking them out. The bar tender was fun, funny, and fabulous. She had a real knack for her trade and you could tell she really had a passion for making a great drink. We were in a non-alcoholic mood though and chose instead from the wide selection of coffees and teas they offered. I thought it was such a nice touch that they offered pastries and coffees at 8:30 at night!! It was easy to see that this is a place that is popular with the locals. Nice friendly, hardworking american's coming in to hang out with friends and catch up with neighbors. The prices were extremely reasonable and the pastry and cookie selections change frequently. The owner is in the process of reviving this space to make it even more comfortable than it already is. Also, do not be disillusioned with the space, there is an ENTIRE backroom with tons of extra seating. Big couches, leather chairs, comfy tables, bring your friends and catch up with some tasty treats. Highly recommend this spot if you are in the area! read more

Let me start by saying those who said the menu needs to be bigger are just wrong. It is not often that we stumble upon places anymore that value simplicity. Half Full is one of them. The menu is small, yes, but this makes the menu less confusing (maybe allowing you to focus more on conversation or to clear your mind after a long day). Moreover, the items are of better quality, and I think in the case of food/beverage, that is more important than quantity. The server who took my order actually made the charcuterie board herself, and it went well with their cabernet. On the charcuterie board, one tiny thing I personally would prefer is the (much) thinner crackers specifically for cheeses (I think they are called wafer crackers but I'm not sure) - this helps make the cheese the focus of the flavor profile rather than the cracker, and their texture is better. The cabernet was recommended by my server over the merlot. It was great. Dry enough to say "HEY I'M WINE" yet just sweet enough to tell you "but I'm grape juice too". The decor is very cute. Antique signs, brick wall behind the bar, the walls are a very chill color, the tables and chairs are modern but also somehow classical. The cafe/bar/restaurant itself is situated on a really pretty street downtown. The staff and owner were super friendly and interested in how I was doing, wanted to know more about my day and how I was liking the area (I'm new to Newberry). I felt welcome and heard and taken care of. They said they hoped to see me again and I'm sure they will. Well done, Half Full. Just what I was looking for. read more

Very cute and nice spot on main street. The drinks were very good. We will def be back for food because it looked very good. Only negative is they need more help but that's everywhere these days. read more

Nice place for a glass of wine and conversation, friendly staff, good wine selection, in downtown Newberry! Could use wider food choices

Fantastic atmosphere and owners. Gourmet coffees and unique varieties of wine as well as interesting "tapas-like" app menu. read more

See all

This was my first time visiting this delightful little coffee and wine bar in downtown Newberry. The brick back wall behind the bar contrasts nicely with the more modern furnishings and the simple lines of the artwork on the walls. The shop is very neat, clean and inviting. Staff was very friendly and the Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee and spinach salad did not disappointment. It was not lost on me that they were playing music driven by an iPod Nano and ran the payment side of the business using a stand-mounted iPad with Square. I admire businesses who maintain a nice, personal feel and ambience but seamlessly embrace new technologies to make things run smoothly. This is a very nice place that I will visit again when I am in Newberry. Check it out when you're in the area. read more

Great coffee and wine bar in Downtown Newberry

Half Full is the best thing to happen to Newberry since the invention of the wheel. The owners go out of their way to make this a wonderful place to be with friends or to make new ones. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. The selection of wines, coffees, and beer is the best in Newberry. The owners and staff are amazing and go above and beyond to make your visit at Half Full remarkable. The food is awesome and always fresh. But don't take my word for it, come and see for yourself and I know you will agree with me that Half Full is definitely the place to be. read more

This coffee and wine bar is great for spending a calm evening with a small group of friends. The owners are friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable about their products. Their wine selection is small but good and in a decent price range. Their food is simple, which goes along with the feel of the place. Stream-lined and relaxed. I'm interested in seeing how Half Full develops! read more

Stopped in for mid-morning coffee on a Saturday. Definitely recommend the coffee (and tea) selections. Food looked delicious as well!

This is one of the best things about Newberry. Great ambience and welcoming atmosphere for both regulars and visitors. Taste some new varieties of wine after work. Or have coffee and a creative breakfast sandwich to start the day. A wonderful place to meet friends and have a snack and a drink. Reliable Wi-Fi, too. read more

Stopped in for some coffee. Had German chocolate latte. It was great. Stopping by for lunch tomorrow.

This coffee shop / wine bar is a great spot on Main Street in Newberry, SC. They have a great space that they take care of, excellent coffee, and friendly staff. We spent a couple of hours here visiting, and catching up on life, and we really enjoyed Half Full. If you are looking for a warm, welcoming spot to hang out, do yourself a favor and stop by this coffee shop / wine bar. You won't regret it. read more

Half Full Cafe And Wine Bar - the interior of a coffee shop - Cafes Near Me - Newberry, South Carolina

Stopped in for lunch but had much more. Great selection of drinks, food and conversation. Great price and staff.

Love love love Half Full! It is my go-to for comfy seating, great coffee and good music. The staff is super nice and helpful. They also have great air conditioning, which is a boon in the summer, and really good wifi, which is a little bit tricky to come by in Newberry! The pastry case is inexpensive, but everything else is a touch spendy, but worth it. My meat and cheese plate had some kind of delicious cheese with dried apricots in it last weekend! Thanks, Sean, and all of your staff for a great place to chill in downtown Newberry! Maybe one day I'll make it there to try your wine! :) (oh, if you need a quiet spot to study or whatever, the back room is usually quiet, and they don't mind if you turn off the speakers!) read more

This is an extremely nice coffee shop by its appearance, BUT coffee/hot chocolate is always cold or only slightly warm. The hours are also very frustrating due to their inconsistent hours. When you do catch them while they're open, the wine and snacks are very good, expensive, but good. read more

This place is amazing! I've had several different specialty lattes, coffees and food. Everything is wonderful. The staff is welcoming, friendly and make you feel like family. The place to go in Newberry! read more
