Switching it up a little bit here with a more tea-based location, but still awesome.

First of all, shoutout to Sharetea for being open. I was looking for a cup on a Sunday around 6, and there were no options.

Anyways, per the worker’s recommendation, I got a mango flavored boba tea. It was very mango-flavored, if you know what I mean, but I really liked it.

Quality of Drink: 7.5/10
Atmosphere: 7/10
Price: 6/10
Speed of Service: 10/10
Number of Options: 10/10 The list of available flavors was HUGE

Different than the usual coffee shop on this website, but I’d absolutely go back here. Great tea, good vibes, you could work remotely here, all around no complaints.
The Mercantile – Jackass Café

I am a frequent visitor of the Jackass Café. The Crazy Ass Neighbor is a reliable drink and not too expensive. It’s pretty sweet, but I love the Mercantile.
The Mercantile itself is a store with all sorts of really cool things. The café is tucked in the back, and it’s really good.
My order is the Crazy Ass Neighbor, iced. It’s roughly 6 dollars for 24oz.

Quality of Coffee: 7/10
Atmosphere: 8/10, I love the store

If you’re in the Rock Hill area, Jackass Cafe is worth the stop. The store is super neat and there is something for everybody in there, plus getting a good cup while shopping is pleasant.

I really wish I could have stayed longer because this is a REALLY neat coffee shop. It’s in the lobby of the Marriott, but the shop is its own secluded thing.

It has a few different sections with comfortable seating and places to sit down, plus a more hotel lobby looking area out of a door. Good spot for remote work or just to swing by, as my coffee was excellent too.

I ordered a small mocha-rose iced latte because it looked unique, and it was good. $5.96.

Only complaint is parking, which is to be expected. If you live in uptown you’re good, but the closest garage was $3 every 20 minutes, which is kind of absurd. Not a dig on the shop though, just be smarter than me.

Quality of Coffee: 8.5/10
Atmosphere: 10/10
Price: 4/10

Overall, this place is sweet. Good place for a meet up, remote work, or your pick-me-up for work.

I was looking for places to go online and someone described Backdrop as a “remote work Mecca.” Considering I am currently doing remote work, I had to go and I think that perfectly describes it. The wifi is good, there’s a lot of seating, and the environment is open.
Per the barista’s recommendation I got a iced vanilla caramel latte which is good but nothing earth-shattering. I will definitely say this place is one of, if not THE best remote work coffee shop I’ve been to thus far.

Atmosphere: 10/10
Coffee quality: 5/10
Price: 6/10 ($5.50 for a 16oz iced latte w/ flavor)
Speed: 10/10 (I ordered when it wasn’t busy but they had plenty of staff)
Number of Options: 7/10

Overall I definitely give this place two thumbs up, especially if you need to get some work done or want to read a book or something.

This place just opened, and I definitely recommend going. It’s part of a business complex kind of thing, and it’s nice inside (almost a west coast LA vibe). I sat just outside of the shop on a couch and cranked out some work.
As far as coffee goes, they had a list of specialty latte’s they make, so I chose one of those and rode with it. It was good flavor, smooth, and pretty quick. There was only one person actually barista-ing, so if it were busy, I could see it taking a while.

My order: Iced rosemary lavender latte
Quality of coffee: 9/10
Atmosphere: 7/10
Price: 10/10
Speed of Service: 7/10
Number of options: 9/10

Definitely on the higher end of shops I’ve been to overall. It was really good, everyone was nice, and there were good places to sit around the shop.

Knowledge Perk is near and dear to my heart. The atmosphere is great and I’ve spent time there in the past, and the coffee gets top marks from me as well.
It’s consistently delicious, but the prices have gone up alongside the price of everything else on this planet. The latte is about $6.80, but it’s not a bad investment as the atmosphere encourages you to stick around.

My order: 16oz. Vanilla Lavender Iced Latte
Coffee Quality: 8/10
Atmosphere: 9/10
Speed of Service: 6/10
Price: 3/10
Number of Options: 8/10
