our story

We offer an experience you will want to revisit over and over.

At the age of 21, Andrew Carter’s dream of opening his own coffee shop started to quickly become a reality. He recognized that Greer had so much potential for growth and wanted to personally contribute to it. Finally, after a year of anticipation, Barista Alley opened its doors on March 31, 2017. It was just a few years later that Andrew happened to find out the old B.A. Bennett building would be available, so he took the opportunity to expand. In August of 2021, Barista Alley re-opened at it’s current location on 101 Trade Street complete with a full kitchen, lots of seating, and even an old bank safe. During the move from one location to the other, Andrew was in the process of purchasing a roaster so he could start roasting his own coffee. In early 2022, he found and started building out the new location where he would put the roastery and cafe. This location, in O’Neal Village, Greer, South Carolina, opened in October 2022. Even with a full plate, Andrew doesn’t plan to stop growing. His next big project is to open a rooftop bar above Barista Alley in Downtown Greer.

About Our Coffee

In June 2022, Andrew had the chance to Visit Colombia, South America where he met many farmers and learned their processes and ways of growing coffee. What he learned there and his overall experience in the coffee industry is what makes the roastery what it is today.

“Being able to bring you coffee that is sourced, roasted, and packaged in-house is a dream come true. We are so excited to share this incredible journey with all of you.” -Andrew
