My favorite spot in Charleston! Atmosphere, service, quality of coffee, everything is superb and it feels like home. l always get the honey oat milk latte iced and sometimes they draw a little bee on the cup🥹 the pour over presentation and taste is also always a hit.

Amazing coffee and great experience. During the recent snow fall here in Charleston I thought I'd take in a walk to enjoy the scenery and hopefully get a coffee. When I arrived I wasn't sure if the place was open. The owner came to the door and explained that due to the weather they weren't open but he kindly invited me in for a coffee on the house. As I sat there and enjoyed a great coffee more people arrived to see if they were open and the same kindness was shown. I will definitely return as the coffee was amazing and the service and kindness shown was truly awesome.

This coffee shop and Blum in downtown are my 2 absolute favorite coffee shops of all time. I am really drawn to the outside.Nice patio area both have and just the plants obviously both have all around. I love when coffee shops have plants inside the interior area. the quiche is really good, and the coffee is really, really good as well and the service is friendly. i've made it a routine to come here and then also frequent the other one in downtown because they're only fifteen minutes away from each other.. Like this, I don't get bored. The blueberry muffin here is the lish as well. My friends and I will definitely be returning

Delightful coffee and environment. I ordered 2 cortados and it was as you hope; 2 shots with equal milk and an exquisite latte design on both. This was the first of the 10 places where the beans were noticeably fruity and almost teetered on too bitter for the drink. Teetered, did not surpass but it was noticeable. The out front seating was well placed under purgala and tree shade. The taco was tiny and overpriced, the breakfast sandwich was small and overpriced and only had one real flavor of deep garlic aoli (more like a vinegary mayonnaise). The caprese sandwich was the best food item but again, too small for the price.

Loved this place! Has a nice garden type patio out front. We saw several cute dogs here. The hubs had a cortado which he said was excellent. I had an oat milk chai - a good chai spice mix but not quite sweet enough for me even though I ordered it sweet. We also shared a piece of Nutella Hazelnut Banana Bread. It was absolutely huge! We both liked it, not sure we would get it again, it was a little dry. The service was very good and the barista did a great job.

Very quaint place. Good coffee - hubby got pecan pie latte (alot of cinnamon flavor, not extremely sweet, good) and i got a hot matcha latte (very slightly sweetened at my request, fresh ground matcha leaves, not bitter at all). Cost comparable to most any other place ($14 & some change). Cool outside area but it was raining so couldn't enjoy it. Definitely a place to return to for coffee & food (menu was small but looked delicious).

I come here all the time and it is the best. Great inside and outside seating. Great coffee. I own Southern Roofing here in Charleston and am always here working!

This place rocks! Best coffee we found in the 3 days we were in town. I had to try the espresso and it was spot on with a great flavor profile and no burnt notes. With the number of iced drinks leaving the counter, those must be very good as well.

They were open at 6:30am and made our coffees right away. My latte was wonderful with the signature art foam heart flourish expertly done. They offered pastries as well including dense banana breads and blueberry muffins, which were good but not to the level of the coffee. Great neighborhood spot with tables and chairs. Will return next time we are in Charleston.
