We kept hearing about this place and everyone said their drinks are amazing!…read more Honestly...who would've thought Columbia would have a hidden gem like this! Homegoodies is serving up great coffee and the sandwiches looked AMAZING (next time). The staff was ON IT! It was packed in here and it still only took about 5-10 minutes to get our drinks. We got the Boo Berry (Blueberry Vanilla Latte) and the frozen Hot Chocolate (made with marshmallow and chocolate syrup siding). Both delicious! This place is deceptive. Looks small, but tons of additional seating in the back. Word on the street is they are putting hashbrowns on their breakfast sandwich, we will review that next time! If your passing through Columbia, check it out!

We walked here from our Airbnb while visiting downtown Lancaster. It was a cute little coffee shop…read moreand bakery. We tried the egg and cheese pastry and all I can say is "wow". The bread part was delicious. It was salty/well seasoned and soft. I thought $7 was a little expensive but I guess that is normal in today's economy. They also have a weekly baking schedule for different breads. I'd check that out if I were local. We noticed a lot of people get to-go here since it's an order at the counter service but seating indoors and outdoors is available. I'd recommend if you're nearby and in the mood.

This little corner cafe is magic…read more We went on a quiet Friday Morning and we're greeted promptly by the kind barista/waitress behind the counter. The ambiance of the cafe is perfect, large windows allow light to pour into the bright space, exposed brick and the high ceilings give it a turn of the century industrial feel, and the inviting seating area by the front windows makes you want to curl up with a cup of coffee and just watch the world go by. We ordered two hot drinks and three entrees. The drinks were a Red Eye coffee with a splash of cream and a Dirty Chai, as well as some of the hard stuff, aka milk for the baby. Now the food, I literally could have eaten four helpings of everything. I'm still kicking myself for not ordering something to go. My husband ordered the Cajun Omelet with breakfast potatoes, if you order nothing else, get the breakfast potatoes, as they are as near to crispy potato perfection as you can get. The youngest member of the party had a Belgian Waffle, and I had a Fried Green Tomato sandwich on a homemade biscuit. I literally licked my fingers because I did not want to waste a crumb. The ONLY disappointing thing about the cafe is that we did not stumble onto it sooner. I look forward to making this eatery a frequent go to for morning, midday or evening bites. PS - if nothing else, the pay it forward board will give you all the feels when you stop in.

Mind you there was ppl sitting and eating there and there was a couple behind me getting ready to order. I have been to the Lancaster location one as well and they too get my order incorrect and have forgotten to give me my order that I paid for! This franchise is overpriced, has rude staff and the food is not good. My eggs always come out raw and now they can't even give you a SIMPLE coffee at a CAFE! I will never be coming back and I hope you guys don't waste money or your own time going here either.

This is another review where I would love if I could give 4.5 stars. I would firmly argue that this…read moreis some of the best coffee in Lancaster and has one of the coolest interior atmospheres. I typically go at least once a week before work. My order is 1 large hot latte and 1 large iced latte. I like to drink the iced latte before school then fill the cup up with ice and pour the (now room temp) other latte over it. That's how much I love this coffee. The only draw back is that the food situation leaves something to be desired. They usually have some sort of baked good/pastry in the display case, but I always eat breakfast before I go so I've never tried it.

My standard order is an iced latte with cherry syrup (although a latte with the peanut butter syrup is also delicious). I've tried cherry lattes elsewhere, but Mean Cups is the best. Nice and sweet, just how I like it, and you can actually taste the cherry. There're plenty of seating options, both indoors and out, and a restroom for customers. The service is quick (and not at all mean!). There's plenty of parking in the lot in front of the store. I do wish they had more food options, but there's not much aside from a small selection of baked goods. Luckily, there are plenty of other options in the same line of shops where you can grab some food to have with your coffee.

The pho broth was so bland and came in a plastic bowl. I can make better pho and I've had better tasting instant pho! I ate the couple of pieces of beef that came with it to not be hungry. My partner ordered the curry which was runny with a few pieces of chicken. He said he had a banh mi sandwich that was ok a previous visit, which is the only reason I don't give place just 1 star. Overall, a disappointment. At least there was a Burger King nearby to grab some burgers.

My girlfriend and I had an off day from bad weather, and finally got around to trying this place!…read moreWe didn't go too crazy, as neither of us eat a lot in the morning, so we both ordered the Croissant Sandwich, which has egg and cheese on it and then added sausage to each of them for an extra 3 bucks. We were SHOCKED to see how big they were, and they come with a hash brown on the side which was MORE than enough. If anyone is like me, they also need coffee in the am. I ordered one of their holiday specialty drinks, the Santa's Cookie Latte, and I got it iced. The coffee was absolutely delicious, with notes of sugar cookie along with a little slight hint of nutmeg or cinnamon, perfectly fit the name which I appreciated! The sandwiches were A-MAZING! Huge like I said, texture was perfect and the flavor was familiar and comforting, almost as I made it myself! I also enjoyed the fact that, if anyone knows what I mean, back with the texture, the sausage was able to be differentiated from the eggs, a lot of the time it all seems to be one mushy thing. Not here, the sausage had a good bite to it, and it all went perfectly together. The actual restaurant is also super cute inside, and the staff are so so friendly. Definitely worth stopping in! I'm going back just for coffee!!
