Laurie brought the food truck to our nursing home to offer their delicious food to our staff, residents, and local businesses as well as passerby’s. The food was so delicious, she sold out! Highly recommend for any events! Our favorites were the chicken and waffles, Mac & Cheese, as well as the soul rolls! Thank you Cafe 301!

The food was not good the first time we tried and it we went to try it again and it used to be 3 rolls for a price and now it’s 1 egg roll for $5… I walked away.

If I could give it a 0 I would. Stopped there at the food truck at Chapman Ford yesterday, bought the mac n chs $12. It was the worst mac n chs I've ever had. Dried out beyond repair, bacon was hard as hell. Lesson learned, won't b stopping there ever

This review is solely for the food truck. I have not been to the actual restaurant. I got the seafood mac & cheese for EIGHTEEN DOLLARS. It was about a cup of mac and cheese with 1 piece of shrimp cut in tiny pieces.. no other seafood. So maybe rename is 1 piece shrimp mac?Also tried the soul eggrolls which were suppose to have buffalo chicken in them. The chicken and rice was totally unseasoned. Not sure if they were just having trouble since the food truck seems new to them or what.

Laurie has always done an amazing job with making any food taste delicious. We were long standing customers at Cafe 301 in Columbia- and will try to visit her as much as we can via her mobile Cafe! Always an array of flavor and texture that makes Laurie's dishes complete. We always felt satisfied and happy after eating a meal made by Laurie!Laurie is excellent at catering, she did our daughter's 1st Birthday and without fail... showed up on time, set up everything beautifully. You can tell it's her passion. For me, my dollar is better spent voting for someone's passion- that helps other's feel good.

Cute coffee shop with a variety of breakfast items. The coffee flight was cute and customizable with non-dairy milk options. Our breakfasts were satisfying, but I want to go back and give some of their more specialty items a try. I should have branched out and gotten something other than the avo toast, since I felt like it was something I could have made at home. Street parking is mostly quarter meters. Overall it was a lovely time, and the owner is super friendly and welcoming!

Was excited to go there but disappointed. They used a pint container (like you get your cole slaw at the grocery deli) and disposable silverware. I got a pint of grits with 5 shrimp on the top ! It was not appealing to the eye and was very salty dish. The chives on top were missing. My friend got the chicken sandwich which she enjoyed ' nice ambience but overpriced. Will not go back basically due to the containers/utensils'

Very disappointing. My husband & I were looking for a different breakfast out and I found this Cafe 301 on Google. I found the menu interesting. The venue is very nice. Lovely blue awnings, high ceiling, stuffed sofa & chairs in addition to dining tables & some nice art. Walked up to a Starbucks-like counter& the very nice employee hands the two of us one menu and says we will order there at the counter with her. Ok. The menu is not what I saw on the website, disappointing. We both order sausage gravy over biscuits (notice the plural) and an order of bacon, iced tea and a mango lemonade. The mango lemonade has no ice and I can't tell you what was mixed with the lemonade but it wasn't mango. No ice in the iced tea either. There is a separate counter set up with water that you tap yourself, no ice and your utensils and napkins. Not long after the food arrives & the friendly employee says, "be careful. It's hot." No it's temped and in a Styrofoam bowl. The food on the website on on ceramic plate and bowls. It is one biscuit split, not the biscuits mentioned on the menu covered in sausage gravy. I must says the gravy was tasty. The bacon came in a takeout box and three of the five pieces were burnt microwave style When you're finish you bus your own table to available trash receptacles. The trying to be Starbucks counter has limited bakery choices. We did not try any because frankly it wasn't tempting. Our experience costed us $31 dollars and change. The counter staff was two friendly teenage looking girls, no fault with them. You might enjoy this place to grab coffee with a friend and chat. However, we will not br returning.

We really, really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately both times we visited the staff, although nice and well-meaning, could not manage the order flow. The first time we waited a long time, probably got our food in about 40 minutes. We gave them a second chance on another Saturday at lunch time; when we asked about our food at the 40-minute mark we were told it would be another 20 minutes. One hour in total for egg sandwiches served in takeout containers. People who came in after us waited, then left without ordering. I understand this is not fast food, but the staff didn't seem to think an hour wait was slow.To me this is a management issue: there were three staff, two in front and only one in back. We were not told our food would be delayed -- and the food coming out of the kitchen seemed to be coming out one dish at a time, as though the kitchen was making each item separately rather than each order concurrently. The barista was working diligently but was simply slow, so the drinks were also very backed up. Our iced coffee -- cold brew poured over ice with milk added -- was only ready 20 minutes after we made our original order.I would suggest additional staff at peak times or additional training for current staff to manage, at the minimum, customer expectations.

What a wonderful accident. My plan was to work at another cafe, closer to home, for the day. When their internet was down I did a search further out and found this gem. Great vibe, wonderful customer service, and the food was INCREDIBLE! Shrimp and grits!!! Was able to chat with the owner for a few minutes near closing time and even after a long busy day the joy for what she did was instantly obvious. Will absolutely be back!

This place is delicious, with good coffee and amazing food! They make everything by hand and it is absolutely worth the wait! Appreciate the vegan options as well!
