The bagels were very good. Glad to have found this spot during a short trip to Columbia.

Staff is incredibly condescending and clearly have no training in customer service. Food is great, but staff makes me want to never come back.

Found large fly on the cheese on the sandwich. Also tea was sour. Will not be coming back.

Hands down, Carolina Cafe is the BEST bagel shop. Jalapeño bagel with Egg and Cheddar are my personal favorite. Salads are made fresh every day with local produce and many dressings are made in house.

I’ve lived in Columbia for 5 years and have FINALLY been able to try this place. Conveniently located between the state house, campus, and some student apartment living. Parking can be challenging but it’s a great place to go prior, during, or after church…The food: it’s priced great. It taste… good. It’s a bagel for crying out loud, not a Michelin star meal! Diverse menu options with how many bagels you can get. I went with a classic Lake Murray: Locks, Capers, and Cream Cheese and onions. It ain’t my NJ girlfriends mothers, but it will DO.The coffee was actually astounding. I was delightfully surprised by how good their coffee was. Felt like a Folgers commercial moment.The atmosphere: I’ve only seen lines wrapped around the door as if it’s a job fair in the 1930s, but on this unbusy Sunday, it was homey. I believe the place could do some interior upgrades. Some good trim on the walls covering holes, a new paint schemes of something to match that green base. Ceiling tiles? Open it up…Carolina Cafe, it was solid. Would def recommend for anyone in Columbia wanting a local spot that likes bagels and coffee

Not sure what it is with this place. The food here is great, the atmosphere is great, but the service here is completely hit or miss. The staff are either some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet or some of the absolute rudest. This morning was my breaking point and I hope management looks at whatever training and whatnot they do differently.

Normally pretty good but really upsetting to get all the way home and they didn't put the bacon nor egg on my bagel. Check your bagels before you leave if you're placing take out.

Whether it's Sausage, Egg, and Pepper-Jack on Jalapeno; Ham, Egg, and Cheddar on Croissant; or Cinnamon and Sugar on Plain -- it's always great. Along with the best tea in town, and a great staff, it's the perfect way to start your day. (And there's Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese on Plain when it's in season!).

UPDATE: WAS TWO STARS, NOW ONE. JUST FOUND A GIANT HAIR IN MY CREAM CHEESE!!!These people cannot listen or read. Doesn't matter if I order in person or online, there's a 50/50 chance my order is going to be wrong. Ordering vegetarian? Oh look, there's bacon. Light cream cheese? Oh look, they fit a whole tub of it into my bagel somehow. Food and prices are fine, but I might as well be placing my orders with hand gestures.

The staff was very knowledgeable; Lauren helped me pick out the most delicious bagel sandwich ever (turkey with cranberry sauce on a poppyseed bagel). I definitely recommend CC&C for any local college students who want to grab a bite to eat before classes!

This morning, I ordered an everything bagel, toasted, with chive cream cheese to go. The bagel was not toasted and was stale.Also, the cashier was obviously initiated because I didn't hear her ask me my name before ordering.
