What locals are saying
Locals describe Vintage Coffee Cafe as a cute Mt. Pleasant cottage with a family-friendly backyard (playground, fire pits, picnic tables) that's a popular morning spot for breakfast sandwiches, avocado toast, açai bowls and lattes. Praise centers on the aesthetic, friendly staff and gluten-free options, but recurring criticism flags small portions for the price, an $8+ latte, a tight/crowded space at peak hours, and complaints from longtime regulars that ambiance and coffee quality have slipped after changes by ownership.
