If one were to judge a place by its coffee, Hilton Head would rank far down the chart, if at all. The island of 30,000 residents and millions of annual visitors has two Starbucks and one independent coffee shop (click logo above). Clearly, there’s an opportunity here, not that I’m looking to enter the “restaurant” business. I’m just a non-corporate bean lover, out of my element.

For those who are good with making coffee at home, Fresh Market does carry Peet’s.
