New locally owned Southern food cafe opens on Main Street

A new cafe and caterer has come to Columbia's downtown.

God's Blessing Café at 1801 Main St. is open for full-service breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday. Owner Jennifer Jones has been in the food-service business since moving to Columbia in 2001.

"I finally decided to branch out on my own," Jones told The State.

God's Blessing serves a purely Southern daily cafeteria-style food line including fried chicken, Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, collard greens, green beans and peach cobblers. The restaurant also has a full-service grill with items such as hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken tenders and more.

Breakfast is served 7:30 to 10 a.m. and lunch runs 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

God's Blessing also caters events such as weddings and luncheons.
