This place is a GEM! I’ve been lucky enough to travel to coffee shops all across the country and this one is one of my favorites! I was in “The Burg” for work for 2 weeks, the staff was super welcoming, the coffee & food/baked good were great and the atmosphere was perfect for working. Just GO, You won’t be disappointed!

If you love coffee shops and you want to try one with a different twist than Starbucks or Panera Bread, you won't be disappointed with Spartanburg's The Pharmacy Coffee operated by Little River Roasting Co. Great coffee, pastries and cosy atmosphere.👍
Yummy coffee! Coming from California where there’s incredible coffee and this place is great! So hard to find in this area.
Very cool design inside. The baristas are very very very knowledgeable and fit the part perfectly.
Not much seating in the main area, but more seats in an older hallway area.
They also have decent light food opinions. A little pricey but quality is there. 👌🏼
This coffee shop is located in the fully-restored Montgomery Building, one of the best examples of traditional Chicago-style office buildings left in the country. Besides the cool setting, my flat white, that used local Little River Roasting beans, was superb. Baristas are friendly and professional here too. This is everything you want in a top-tier, pop-in city coffee shop. A great find in downtown Spartanburg.
What a stumble across it, late night walking, so glad they were open the next morning find.
Great coffee, great bakery items (we had the scones with havarti and I think she said salami and pepper jelly, but I was in love after the words “just picked these up” and “havarti”, so my mouth was watering and mind racing…and avocado toast), even GREATER employees. I was new to the city, second in the door this morning and they were friendly and chock full o’ information. Recommended local BBQ, sandwich shops, where to and not to go late at night.
Magnificent. Thank you ladies.
The art deco atmosphere gives you a shot of nostalgia with some fantastic menu options. Love it! From the website: "The Montgomery Building was built in 1925 and is an iconic piece of Spartanburg’s rich history. When the opportunity came knocking to put a shop in the Montgomery Building we jumped at the opportunity but we knew that we had to give Spartanburg something a little different from the Little River Coffee Bar. We chose the name ‘Pharmacy’ based off of the building’s history and the pharmacy soda counter culture of the time..."
I visited from out of town and really enjoyed it! I got a breakfast panini on the rosemary bread, which I would highly recommend. The cold brew was tasty and smooth. I picked up a bag of beans as well and have been enjoying them at home. The flavor notes listed seem very subtle to me, but it’s a good bag of beans. The space was very clean. I’d definitely visit again when I’m in the area!
Not only does this place make a mean latte but the view and atmosphere on the inside is fantastic. Perfect place to study, chill or hang out. Ordered The Beekeeper and it was one of the most beautifully presented latte's I have had. The attention to detail in this place is stellar.
