C3 Coffee Bar

Great place to stop for a “specialty” coffee, and good treats! This place is located with a drive thru and tons of available parking. They have a cute indoor seating area with cozy couches and regular tables, with outlets. Awesome place to study or catch up with friends. The staff is super friendly and will help with any ordering or recommendations. The coffee is flavorful and the salted caramel latte is delicious! They even had seasonal flavors for the coffees. It’s a great alternative to other coffee shops and is nice to support local. We will be back!

This is such a great spot for coffee, refreshments and relaxation. Everything is delicious and the service is fast and friendly. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The menu offers everything you’d expect from a coffee shop. When I’ve been there, there are folks enjoying their food and beverage, meetings going on, people playing board games, and groups just socializing. There are places where you can sit alone at a bar type area and comfy places for groups with couches and chairs grouped together. They also have a meeting room that can be booked for showers and larger meetings. This is a delightful place in Conway and I definitely recommend it.

This beautiful local spot has a modern sitting area, perfect for quick meetups with friends! The "Druft Late" was a bit too milky and vanilla-y for my liking, not much coffee flavor. Next time, I'll ask for an extra espresso shot! Otherwise, it is not worth it.

They're charging 4.50 for a plain decaf coffee. I ordered it twice before. I asked both times why does it taste sweet. They said they didn't put anything sweet in it. Found out they've been making my plain decaf with milk. I can't have milk. I'm so upset. Also if plain coffee is 2.50. then plain decaf needs to be the same.

What a perfect stop for a pick me up on the drive to the beach. We stopped with a camper trailer and had no problems pulling into their parking lot and there was a large parking lot in the back as well. They were super friendly and the coffee was delicious!

Coffee, community, conversation. In 2016 the first of C3 Coffee Bars opened its doors with a passion for coffee, a purpose to serve the community and a powerful conversation that “People Matter To God.” Owned and operated by The Rock Church, 100% of the profit and donations are used to help, minister and meet the needs of the community. C3 partners with Balzac Brothers Coffee in Charleston, SC to import the highest grade, farm direct specialty coffee that uses no slave labor and prices are set by the producers. Large open seating area inside with counter ordering, picnic tables outside and drive thru. Metal stools and chairs, cement floors and black ceiling tiles mingles industrial look with a more stylish flair of leather sofas and upholstery chairs. Something feels amiss with muted TVs turned to sports channels and no worship or coffee house music. Simple paper menu on the counter offers a variety of coffee and a display box has two breakfast sandwiches, cinnamon rolls, bagels, cookies, muffins and other baked goods to choose from. A large chalkboard behind the counter remains empty but could be better utilized for those unfamiliar with their menu giving them more time and not feeling rushed. Staff were personable as they did their job but offered little interaction with customers. Our bacon breakfast croissant was hot, tasty and filled with a good amount of bacon and the cinnamon roll a real sweet treat. My wife had nothing but praise for her black coffee with cream, especially in comparison to the coffee shop chains she frequents. Overall experience was good and being ones that love to support and shop local we will be back.

Did you know C3 just got fined $48,000 and put on probation for a year by the labor board because they were found guilty in violation of MULTIPLE child labor laws, and the South Carolina federal and state tip retention laws at all 3 locations? Did you know that C3 had a 14 YEAR OLD GIRL working from 5:30 am to 2:30 pm, 5 days a week, for $8 an hour, on her own, without being allowed to take tips? Any person under 16 cannot work more than 3 hours a day, you also cannot work on school hours. C3 coffee WAS holding tips their workers, saying that they arent required to give them to the workers because theyre a non profit. This is 100% incorrect, and now, they pay for their actions. Now they will be forced to follow the law like the rest of us. We questioned their actions and reported it, and we were right. Always investigate who you support, this church doesnt follow the teachings of god. Thank you to the South Carolina Labor Board for investigating this and taking action.

Three stars for service; The staff is very friendly and accommodating, they are perfect, great job, ladies! The establishment is super cute, great vibe. Very clean. Unfortunately can't recommend the mocha frappe 😭 they remade it for us twice adding extra syrup and it just got sweeter-- it had zero flavor, and an offwhite color. Photo shows one of the remade ones. Way too sweet and no hint of cocoa or coffee. We had to leave to go get coffee elsewhere, and maybe add some of this to it. They are also expensive ($6 ea) for a drink made with only syrup and powder, we weren't too happy.. we really thought, honestly, this a terrible product, but the staff was so nice.. So, less sugary syrup and sugary dairy powder, more straight coffee and unsweetened cocoa/dark chocolate, please.

On my way home from Myrtle Beach I stopped in the C3 coffee bar. The staff were very nice. They were able to re-create a drink that I just named off my head. What's more important than this the values that C3 hold in terms of faith and overall service. If memory serves me right, the three Cs, our conversation, community and coffee. This place is very clean very efficient. They even have a drive-through area so you do not have to come in, but I strongly recommend that you do.

First time here so I ordered what I would normally order elsewhere to compare the difference. I ordered a large hot caramel macchiato & I was pleasantly surprised of the taste but it wasn't hot & the large they consider to be a large wasn't a large but a medium in my book. It tasted more like hazelnut until I got to the bottom which was caramel flavored. The service was a little slow for not many being there. Will I go again yes but only when it's not out of my way.

The flat white I got here was really good! Service was friendly. They're affiliated with the church next door.

I love trying out new coffee shops! This one was so good! Such a cool atmosphere & large space, it'd be a great place for meeting or studying. I tried the bacon & egg breakfast sandwich... it was just okay. I did however try one of the specialty iced lattes, campfire s'more (I think was the name). AMAZING. I'll be back to try more!

Stopped in 1-24-23 and 1-25-23 not one time but both was everything just perfect Not only do they roast their own coffee beans in-house but they make their own Syrup's Best cold brew this side of the Rockies I have found in the last 2.5 years Cold brew with Samoa foam is a solid 5/5 stars Combine everything with a super staff and C3 coffee achieves a total 5 star review

We always stop here on our way out of Murrells Inlet to head back home. They are open early, and always super nice and welcoming. The shop is also very clean with plenty of seating. We have never used the fire pits outside, but that is a cool touch they have added. Overall, it is a very cool place that I would recommend making a pit stop for on the way in or out of myrtle / murrells / Charleston / or if you're just in the area!

On the return morning visit today , I had far Less than Equal Service of the first visit and it appears these young ladies were good with average service delivery and it changed our experience. And too i observed them be satisfied with no greeting and no communications with the next guests. Coffee and Tea and Pastries are Not Unique and I was really hoping Service Delivery would be more than average but it doesn't seem consistent. And this is why the Star Rating has changed.

A nice place to stop for a cup of coffee and hang out with friends. There is a lot of room for you to plug in and do some work as well. They provide plenty of outlets which is nice. They make any combo of coffee you can get anywhere else. They sell small pastries as well. If they sell additional items my apologies. I was there to enjoy a cup of coffee with my niece. There is a separate room that appears to be a place where you could hold a meeting. Pretty good idea as the location is very convenient. There are other C3 shops. Thought it was associated with the one in Concord but it isn't. They are independently owned (although a few at the beach are owned by the same people). Enjoy

I have pnly been there once - The iced coffee was really weak and pricey. Nice atmosphere inside and nice staff.

stopped at this location on Saturday on the way back from Myrtle Beach back to NC . horrible, horrible horrible! three children running the shop. No one seem to be in charge, and they were more interested in chatting about their last nights activities, then making a proper mocha. no customer service! A cold overly sweet drink ( which was undrinkable)

Cute stop if you need a little break. Lots of room for working on your laptop without feeling on top of others. I got the blueberry muffin oat milk latte and coffee cake muffin. Both were very tasty and they heated up the muffin for me. Yum.

Stopped by for a late breakfast on our way through town. The service was great, the coffee was good and the breakfast sandwich was good too. We enjoyed the quick meal and went on our way. Would definitely stop by again next time in town.

Stopped on the way to Myrtle beach. Went through drive through very nice staff and got our drinks fast and pretty tasty. The window to get your drinks is a little high.

One of the best places to get your coffee! And the customer service is amazing! All of these lovely humans do their best each day to serve and it shows!

I went to a coffee shop across town and was very disappointed so I was nervous coming here. I'm kind of a coffee snob but this place exceeded my expectations I got the blueberry muffin latte and I'd say it's one of the best lattes I've ever had. They were super accommodating when I told them I don't like overly sweet drinks and they made sure I liked it. Another cool touch was being able to see them roast their own beans! I'm so sad I live 14 hours away from here because I'd be coming here everyday!

Tried the White mocha frappe & strawberry smoothie. Both were really good. Half the price of Starbucks.

The first thing we noticed upon arrival was the blaring TV which was playing a streamed church service. The TV was blasting so loud we could not hear the employees behind the bar. The young girls behind the bar seemed less than enthused to even be awake let alone working at the coffee bar. Next request is can you get an actual menu to put up on the wall and make the items you have available visible other than the few tiny laminated menus laying on the desk. I ordered a latte, which was decent and my friend ordered a mocha frappe which was just awful. The breakfast sandwich we ordered was actually good. We are out of town people and if we would have know this was part of the church behind it and they were going to be streaming the church service we would have never stopped at this place. If you are passing by- keep moving, wait til you get to Starbucks!

Stopped here during a basketball tournament my son had in the area. I didn't want any chain coffee shop so I found this jewel on yelp. Great coffee, great atmosphere, and awesome staff. Keep up the great work!!!

Great place. Delicious coffee and such comfortable seating. It was a pleasure stopping there!

Literally came here for the first time with my family. At least 4 people behind the bar. My wife and daughter were next in line when I went to the restroom. Five minutes later after making eye contact with my wife multiple times and doing nothing they finally found it convenient enough to take their order. Need some actual adults running this place and not children it would probably be way better. On top of them not even knowing what goes in the drinks apparently

Great coffee! Great service! Great place to hang out and do work or catch up with friends.

The place is trendy and seating is comfortable. Not much of pastry items but the coffee is very good. The milk frothed just right.

Well they cannot make a Frappe at all and for 5 bucks it was a waste of time and money. Nice inside but the coffee is terrible, second time I had a horrible blended drink. Never again....

High quality coffee with healthy natural flavors, genuine coffee place with nice people:)

I went to C3 coffee bar recently as I have enjoyed their church services in the past and wanted to support local businesses. There were two girls there, one with a pixie haircut and one with long blonde hair. Immediately, they looked at me like I was an inconvenience and gave an attitude, making me feel unwelcome. Not only will I not be attending church there but I won't be coming back to C3. If you work for a place of God, at least pretend to have God in your heart.

Of all the coffee shops I went to during my visit, this one was probably my favorite. Employees were super friendly. They have a good selection of hot and cold drinks as well as pastries. I ended up getting cold brew and banana bread. The cold brew was pretty reasonably priced. The banana bread was a tad on the spendy side for being a pretty small slice. Overall liked this location better than the location across from the colleges. They have a single seating tucked back behind the coffee roaster that gives you a decent view.

I think it's sad that one of the most recent reviews here is one star. If your regular cuppa comes out of a keurig, you don't have any business criticizing coffee. I think some people just don't like good coffee because they are used to having bad coffee. Now that's out of the way, let me tell you this is good coffee and that's why this place gets 5 stars from me. The cold brew I got was the best I've had (outside of the coffee shop I work at)in a long long time. I didn't have a chance to ask where it was sourced and I regret it! If I had to guess I'd say it's an Ethiopian. So flavorful and delicious and strong. The large 24oz was only $4, a steal in my eyes-where I'm from in Northern Virginia it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility to have to shell out $5 or $6 for the same thing. The first sip brought me so much joy and surprise! Thanks for a great road trip sippy sippy!

I love love love this coffee shop! Brought some friends to Myrtle Beach for the weekend, and we drove past this on the way & made it a point to go back! We loved the atmosphere, and the beautiful environment inside, as well as their outside patio. The employees were super nice and patient, and there was even an event going on in the seperate room next door. Overall, a great place to study and cultivate community with friends!!

Stumbled upon this lovely coffee bar, and honestly, I'm hooked! The staff is sweet and so pleasant! The coffee is so tasty! There's tons of room to sit and chat with friends, tables with outlets to plug in your lap top and study or do work. They even have a private room to host parties. Really a great spot! A definite go to!

Outstanding coffee! Nice employees including cute little girl peeking in the drive through window! So great seeing a local family business! Go give them your support - order anything off the menu (I tried most of their cold drinks), you will not be dissapointed!!

If you want to sit out in the South Carolina heat for 20 minutes at a drive thru window this is the place for you! Pretty exciting to then have to walk in, after the long wait (after we ordered) and get treated bad after all of that. The workers laughed, stating they did not know we were outside showing how horrible the service is here. Do not go to C3, there's a Dunkin right down the street that will do just fine.

Friendly and helpful staff. The coffee was okay. The space was really pretty. I would probably return just would have to get a stronger drink.

Amazing! Love the vibe, the people, and the coffee/smoothies. Totally pleased that we checked out this place on our way out of town. Will return for sure!

Easily the best coffee shop in Conway. Nay, in South Carolina. The coffee is from an excellent roster out of Tampa and C3 is beginning to roast their own beans. They offer single origin espresso, pour over options, and the staff is excellent.

I love the mission behind this shop and everything in it was absolutely adorable.the baristas were extremely helpful and patient with our order. Overall a great find on our trip to the Carolinas.

I was really excited to try this coffee bar! It's super cute on the outside and the service was great! The only downside was I asked for light cream and i basically got a heavy cream with a hint of cold brew. It was my only my first experience there though so I will be returning to try it out again.

Well not a happy customer paid $6 for frappe with whipped cream got 1/4 frappe and 3/4 whipped cream. I could have went to dunkin and gotten 2 large iced coffees with whipped cream for less. Not happy.

This place is great. I love the atmosphere, friendly workers, and comfortable environment. I just wish they weren't playing Christmas music in November lol. They usually do have a great playlist.

Fabulous!! The flavors are on point & the atmosphere is awesome! No worries on having my kids or family here! Great place!

Cute spot and good coffee, but I was super alarmed that not a single person working at the cafe wore a mask. I did not feel comfortable with this while seeing them handle my food. In a Covid world, I found this rather astonishing. Unfortunately, this is the first and last time I stop here.

Just not good coffee or mochas. Nice people and good atmosphere but for being a coffee shop, the drinks are not good.

I love C3. When the first sip of their cold brew touches your soul: swoon! Great place to grab a cup with friends and catch up.

I love the concept and it is very well laid out. Great place to catch up with an old friend. This is not a place you will get in and out of in a jiffy. If you are in a hurry stick with DD but if you have the time to wait and relax this is a great spot to check out. Strawberry smoothie is delicious! -great price too

Great environment , coffee and pastries. Could use more breakfast items like vegetarian or plant base options.

Coffee is wonderful. Staff is courteous and facility is super clean. Even met the owner. Wish you much success in the future Charlotte Irish pub owner

A good, full-service coffee bar, in my experience. I visited here for some fresh coffee to go with my lunch while passing through Conway, and, indeed, coffee was served! I started with an Americano, then progressed to a cold-brew, and both were tasty, reasonably priced, and served by a friendly barista. Though the bar's interior was handsomely decorated and comfortably large, I opted to eat al fresco, on a quaint little roadside picnic table between two sentinel trees. There, I had my meal and read a good book and soaked up the sun, with Conway-ians passing by all the while -- magnifique! And then, when lunch was done and it was time for a bathroom break, I made use of a clean, functional men's room, thus sealing C3's fate of a five-star review. All in all, I had zero problems with this coffee bar, and will likely return. My thanks goes out to all associated with this business. I am grateful for, and have benefited from, your work and service. Keep it up, ladies and gents!

Don't stop here for coffee. Baristas are clueless on how to make speciality drinks. Tasted disgusting!!! We always try to support the locals but can't do it here. Everyone working was rude.

C3 is owned by The Rock church located right behind the coffee bar. My daughter goes every Thursday night at 6 for the middle school gathering. The beverages and staff are fantastic and the coffee bar is a great place to teach kids about kindness and serving their community through volunteering. Keep it up C3!!

It is owned by The Rock church! I have been several time now! I work at Starbucks and I have to say they do an awesome job. I don't always like the syrup that other coffee shops use but there is very good. The crews that works there is super friendly and very helpful! The shop is very clean and super cute. I have been to the new location by Coastal Carolina University also and it is just as nice!
