This place is simply the best. They take great care with everything from the pour over coffee to the complimentary cucumber water . It is the best coffee shop I've ever had the pleasure of visiting.

The cold brew coffee is amazing, as are the affogatos . The staff are friendly and very coffee-knowledgable. Great place to come alone or with a friend and hang out for an hour or two. 

The space is large and welcoming; it's comfortable enough to hang out and quiet enough to do work. Also outlets and free WiFi are available. Friendly staff and good coffee .

The organic Guatemalan roast is smooth & rich. Great atmosphere - very European minimalist. Some real good people - free cucumber water and a book exchange out front. A must if you're in Charleston!

Very cute coffee shop with seating for 20ish. Pour over and espresso drinks were solid. Almond milk offered but no oat milk (yet!). Loved the almond croissant .

Charlestonians flock to this two-year-old shop and café for its distinctive coffee creations, from lattes made with organic Counter Culture beans to decadent java cocktails .

Best place in Charleston to get enjoy coffee . I highly recommend the cappuccino as a standard & the Lavender latte for an adventure.

the black julep is espresso muddled with some mint and honey and served over ice. tasty homemade pastries too!

Great espresso , iced coffees , chai , and vibe. Really a flawless coffee shop .

Great coffee shop . Delicious, rich, cold brew and serene, beautiful atmosphere.

Recently changed its name to Second State Coffee. Everything else is the same. Try the honey latte !

Great coffee in a hipster coffee place with a relaxed atmosphere . Tarts were good, although not outstanding

Iced Lavender Latte , on point. Great spot to camp out for a few hours and get work done. Wi-Fi password: espresso .

Good seating, small-shop vibe, tasty coffee , great edibles, friendly service . An easy place to work or write. I'll be back

Cute pastries and nice twists on a coffee + virgin mint julep . Lots of laptops though. ????

This ace is seriously the best. Great vibe, unreal roasts and the cucumber water is a delight. Ostensibly my favorite coffee shop .

Great place to study and excellent coffee ! Just don't come here if you want your stuff quickly. It's not that kind of place, but that's why their product is so great!

AWESOME flavored lattes . Honey latte was great. Boo got a little quiche which was also delicious

You sure we're not in Brooklyn?

Awesome spot. Be sure to ask the baristas if you have questions, as there are some interesting, not typical items on the menu. Great coffee , good people.

On the expensive side, but one of my favorites. Great coffee , friendly staff . The decor is minimalist, and I love it.

Service ethos of the staff is impressive. Passionate about coffee , hospitable , etc. Not only bring coffee to table but also setting up chairs for groups. Complete commitment.

The wifi password is "espresso "

The Counter Culture coffee is the best coffee in Charleston , which is why it’s on our list of The Tastes That Make the City : Charleston. Read more
