Nice antique vibe. Friendly staff. Food was mediocre. We got the Bread Board and Roasted Sweet Potato bowl. Total came out to be $38. They include gratuity automatically. I liked the dressing of the salad - it's miso-based, tangy and flavorful. I liked the butter they give you with the bread. The other three spreads we chose avocado, hummus, and almond butter were average. Others had coffee. They said coffee is okay, not too special.

We came for brunch and were pleasantly surprised. The food is relatively expensive menu prices included gratuity, but it was high quality and healthy. The coffee was exceptional here. We will definitely come back when looking for a healthier breakfast/brunch option.

It was a very nice and tasty breakfast. For 3 people we've had 2 qlmond croissant, 2 pain au chocolat, a tartine of soft-scrambled egg, 2 espresso and 1 golden latte. It was expensive but the quality was there.

This place is an amazing hidden gem, literally. You'd almost miss it if you didn't know where it was. Their coffees and pastries are delicious. They include gratuity in their prices and the service is phenomenal.

This place is a hidden gem tucked away off of Gervais. Best almond croissants EVER! And, the Soft Scrambled Egg on Sourdough with greens was so delicious. Loved sitting outside looking at the distressed brick walls - a Spain/Italy/France vibe. Can't wait to go back. BTW - they don't solicit tips. Their staff is paid a steady wage above minimum with benefits. From their website: "smallSUGAR will serve as the location for the second phase of the pilot the CITY GRIT Hospitality Workforce Development program. The goal of the program is to provide opportunity and culinary training to non-college bound youth. We strive to offer improved conditions for employees: Guarantee a livable wage for all staff once they’ve completed the initial on-boarding phase of employment. Offer a transportation stipend for employees to offset parking and/or transportation costs associated with concepts located in downtown Columbia. Incentives for community engagement by volunteering with one of our partners at Richland Library, FoodShare, Transitions, Oliver Gospel Mission, End Childhood Hunger South Carolina, Harvest Hope, or Share Our Strength’s Cooking Matters. Continued and expansive training in hospitality, marketing, money and asset management, the culinary arts, and management." What a great place to support! We went twice in our weekend visit to our daughter and can't wait to return!

First experience this weekend. Got the greens and grain bowl & macha, my son had the yogurt parfait, and we each had a baked treat. Delicious and wonderful service all around. Features: All staff were masked.

Outstanding food, and service. Love unique brunch options! Pastries were the best I’ve had locally. Ordered an iced dirty chai and it was delish also.

The food quality is unmatched in Columbia. Yes, they take a lot of time to prep, and yes they are a bit expensive, but.. it's an awesome vibe, gratuity already included and the food just tastes fresh, clean and next level.Food: 5/5

smallSugar did not disappoint. Customer service was phenomenal and the breakfast patries were delicious. Dont leave without trying the Golden Tumeric Latte. We came on an overcast day and enjoyed the patio. I will definitely be back the next time im in the area.

This is such a cute restaurant and the staff is always so friendly. smallSUGAR is the best place to get fresh local farm to table meals. We have been supporting them since pre-pandemic. Go to their website to learn more about the husband/wife duo team.
