Concept


Our goal for Snapshot Cafe’ & Art Bar is to offer great service for food and drink appropriate to the hour in an inviting, comfortable, non smoking atmosphere.

Starting with our all day selection of fresh roasted coffees, flavored coffees and espresso supplied by Leopard Forest Coffee of Travelers Rest. Our baristas are happy to make your favorite coffee drinks and fruit smoothies using the wide variety of coffees from Leopard Forests own plantation in Zimbabwe. It’s truly the best coffee in town! Enjoy them along with a selection of fresh baked goods. There are newspapers available to share and free "WiFi" wireless internet access. There’s always soft music, an eclectic mix of jazz, classics, new age and alternative, playing in the background. It’s a place that has great coffee to go for those in a hurry, or ceramic mugs and comfy chairs for those with time to relax.

Lunch includes salads, fresh soups, sandwiches, jumbo wings and homemade potato chips & sweet potato chips, along with other typical deli foods. A Panini press offers a fresh feel to premade sandwiches during the lunch rush. The wings are fried in zero trans fat canola oil, with sauce choices galore. One flavor or ten, it’s your choice. Softdrinks, homemade iced tea and beer or wine for those who don’t have to go back to work!

In the evening, start with our unique appetizers such as portabello fries, goat cheese salad and incredible pesto spinach artichoke dip with baked pita chips. For dinner try our slow roasted rotisserie dishes such as quarter chicken and pork loin, seared ribeye, Chef’s own crab cakes, clams, fish & chips and glazed salmon.

Side dishes include our Snapshot Special homemade potato chips, regular or sweet potato, along with large and juicy homemade onion rings and more. The beer is always flowing from nine draft beer taps with premium flavors from Foothills Brewery including People's Porter, ESB Trout, Total Eclipse Stout, Torch Pilsner, Seeing Double IPA, Hoppyum IPA as well as Yuengling, Newcastle and Stella Artois

Snapshot Café has a wide selection of specialty bottled beers, and if we don’t have your favorite, ask us and we’ll try to get it for you. We also offer a mix of medium priced wines picked for a combination of flavor and cost available by the glass or bottle, along with a few special items for the wine afficiando.

Snapshot Cafe´ & Art Bar has seating for 105 people in a combination of private booths, tables and seating at the bar. The WiFi Lounge area adjacent to the coffee bar seats 20 in seating that can be combined for private parties. Additionally, the Crosby Stills studio space is available by prior arrangement for use as a private party/special event area, and will seat around 25.

There’s a patio outside that will be open in appropriate weather and seats an additional 20 to 30 people. Smoking is permitted only on the outside patio.

Service is always a priority, with staff trained to welcome and appreciate customers as I’ve always done in the photography studio. Our goal is to have the most responsive wait staff anywhere.

Snapshot Cafe´& Art Bar has openings for photography shows approximately every two months, with promotion through the arts associations.

Groups or clubs with a small membership are encouraged to use Snapshot, so if your group is looking for a free place for a meeting, give us a call at 864-254-9114, and of course have a beer or glass of wine and a few appetizers while you’re here.

Finally, adding to the ambience is a theater style popcorn machine, with baskets free from the bartender.

Snapshot Cafe & Art Bar is a place for those seeking a break from sports bars with their banks of TVs, and who want a place to eat, drink and socialize in an artistic, funky, non smoking atmosphere. It’s the best of a coffee house and bar combined.
