Greenville’s Chestnut Coffee Shop is expanding to Clemson.
Over the weekend of Aug. 16, the shop announced on social media that it will add a location in the former Stumphouse Cafe/Creamery space at 115 Market St. in Patrick Square. Stumphouse closed Aug. 18.
“It will be classic Chestnut, but in Tigertown,” said co-owner Brandi Ward.
Ward said the Clemson store will be decorated with orange accents and university memorabilia. The plan is to open in early September to coincide with the first home football game against Appalachian State.
Earlier this year, Chestnut announced plans for a Five Forks location across from Sportsclub on Scuffletown Road. Ward said it should open in October.
Ward’s background is in interior design and is thus, in charge of the aesthetic for the shops. The Five Forks cafe will see pinks, wallpaper and chandeliers.
“The coffee and the experience is the same but the atmosphere is just different at each [Chestnut],” Ward said.
The coffee shop‘s flagship location in the Verdae community of Greenville serves Methodical Coffee-roasted beans, lattes with house-made syrups, and a neighboring market with locally-sourced provisions and home items.
