Hilton Head, SC – Origin Coffee, a specialty cafe and roastery based in Savannah, Georgia, is set to expand its operations with a new location opening on August 1, 2023. Situated at 35 North Main Street, Suite 100, within the J. Banks complex, the Hilton Head cafe will replace the former TJ’s Take & Bake Pizza.

The café will serve a diverse menu that includes coffee, pastries, and a full brunch offering, which is expected to be launched in the coming months. This development is influenced by the staff of J. Banks, a design firm also located in the building, who have regularly visited Origin Coffee’s Savannah site.
Accessibility is a key factor in the location’s selection, as it is centrally positioned near local schools, the hospital, and the airport, making it convenient for residents and visitors alike. Matt Higgins has emphasized the importance of establishing the cafe as a local neighborhood hub, fostering connections within the Hilton Head community.
Background of Origin Coffee
Origin Coffee was co-founded by Elise and Matt Higgins in 2020, after the couple experienced challenges in finding the ideal coffee for their wedding. The business began as a mobile espresso bar and changed into a pop-up before evolving into a full-service cafe and roastery in 2023. The cafe prides itself on roasting all its coffee in-house in Savannah, aiming to facilitate a specialty coffee program that supports local growers by sourcing beans directly from farmers.
The Community Focus
The new Hilton Head cafe is designed by Sarah Kowalski of J. Banks Design, with an emphasis on community involvement. In alignment with Origin Coffee’s vision of local engagement, all employees in the new location will be local residents, contributing to a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The cafe’s approach prioritizes staff confidence and service quality, ensuring that the kitchen operations will be launched when they are fully prepared.
Menu Details and Offerings
While most menu items will closely resemble those offered at the Savannah location, the Hilton Head cafe will also feature unique brunch items that are currently in development. The goal is to provide a varied selection that appeals to the local clientele, enhancing the overall coffee experience.
Future of Origin Coffee
As Origin Coffee continues to grow, the owners remain committed to their foundational values of quality and community support. Customers and fans can stay updated on the cafe’s progress and offerings through their social media platforms, including Instagram and Facebook, as well as the cafe’s official website.
