Vegan, Vegetarian, Fair Trade, and quite tasty. This spot does serve egg items but I don't think they have any meats. There is locally produced art on the walls and their smoothies are to die for.

Homemade flavors like OREO Speedwagan and Blue Berry Pie make this place a visitor and local favorite. You can get alcoholic floats as well, but you can't walk around with them down town.

Drinks & Nightlife

Probably the only bar in town to serve actual German Beer. They host a trivia night on Monday Nights. It is not a stock college bar but more Euro and as such feels more like an experience. Food is limited but beer can come in 1L Steins.

This place comes recommended for a particular type of drinker. It's an Irish pub that operates WiseGuys Pizza in the back. It has the single best bar menu in town. Its got an edge to it. Dimly lit, a juke box, and a pool table in the corner it could be a bar straight out of a much bigger city. The barmaids won't hesitate to shut someone down and usually they deserve it. They work for tips and don't put up with college kid antics. So walk in knowing its got an attitude about it. Its fairly small so if you go in a peak time you probably won't get a seat right at the bar. All that said it's my favorite downtown spot.

This is Columbia's only really "upscale" spot. Dress up and go out. There is almost always a cover. The staff should know every obscure drink cocktail you can think of. Small fire pits line the outer patio that is something like 8 stories up on the roof of the Broadway hotel. Good place to impress a date.

If Thursday, Friday, or Saturday you want to do karaoke. They also do comedy on Tuesday nights.
