I had breakfast around the corner and had time to kill and along my stroll I found this coffee shop next to a gelato shop. When I first entered it was welcoming. Very smooth atmosphere. Coffee smelt great so I got a Carmel macchiato and a fruit bowl. Fruit bowl had cantaloupe, honeydew, and pineapple tossed in lemon juice and honey. Everything was good up until the pineapple tasted as if it was from a can. The coffee was so smooth and not very sugary. I sat at the bar. Place definitely gets busy and the music choice was stellar. The fact that they also have a Vinyl player is amazing. Keep up the work. Have time check it out.

Great coffee, funky coffeehouse- a fun little place to get your morning caffeine. It gets popular/crowded because they take their time to craft your beverage and lots of people love it!

This is such a cool place! When I walked in, I felt like I was transported back in time, and I mean that in the best way possible! The ambiance was straight out of a 1970s or 80s movie, and the staff was very friendly and helpful as well. It wasn't the greatest bagel and coffee I've ever had, but it wasn't very expensive so it doesn't really matter. I would 10/10 recommend Drip Coffee, and I'd like to come back with friends soon!

Super cute coffee shop giving san Francisco vibes. Upbeat but not loud and just well kept/run. The coffee is really delicious and the mocha was on point. It is a slower service mostly due to how many locals hang here. It is a college town so expect to sit a minute or two for your order or you can order ahead for pick up!

Visiting Columbia for the first time. Came up here with some new friends. Amazing Iced Oat Mocha and bagel. Even got a sweet dub record !! It’s an institution .

I’ve only gone to Drip a handful of times but I love their strawberry lemonade (I know it’s weird to get something other than a coffee at a coffee shop) but it’s great. I will say though this time that I went (10.23) the lemonade had something weird on the bottom and I’m not sure what it is. But it’s still tasty nonetheless. On another note I did get their Cheddar Garlic Basil scone and I will say it wasn’t my taste, it was a bit sweeter than what I was expecting for a savory scone, but other than that the service was great.

An oasis for anyone searching for better coffee than you could possibly expect in Columbia, vegan/gluten free options and a surprisingly great vinyl collection. Plus the employees are incredibly nice and personable.

I met my now-fiancé here for the very first time. We had coffee and really enjoyed ourselves. Their coffee is good, and the service is excellent. The decor and the vibe of the place are relaxing! We went back a second time and sat in the exact same spot as our first visit. We find it so funny! 😆 We’re planning to come back after we get married. Thank you, Drip! ❤️
