“Absolutely love this new cafe!!. It is in such a great location on the way to Kiawah Island. To Go options, smoothies, brunch options, coffee, alcohol, picnic options, indoor sit down dining, and outdoor air down dining options. Atmosphere is super fresh, clean, everyone is so friendly and kind. We were a bit nervous stopping at a new place but absolutely fell in love. We also have two little boys and we did not feel uncomfortable or a nuisance. We often times run into that feeling when eating but that was not the case. They also had a refrigerator full of all local business products from local alcohol to local bagels to local ice cream. We will be definitely stopping by next time we go to Kiawah and also we will be bringing all of our local friends. Such a nice warm welcome change when it comes to places to eat in the Kiawah area.“

“Well, after 25 years of visiting the Tomato Shed on a regular basis, you've finally done it. You made a meal that I didn't like. My mother in law (from Michigan) insists on going to the Tomato Shed every time they visit Charleston, which we are always happy to accommodate. This visit, I had the meatloaf. It was well prepared, others at our table thought it was great. I just didn't care for it. No, there was nothing wrong with it. Yes, it looked wonderful, and smelled amazing. I have no valid complaint about it. I just didn't care for it.

So, why am I writing this review? Because it is the first time since moving back home that I didn't absolutely love everything I've had there. Such a rarity needs to be remarked upon.

Our server was awesome (I didn't remember his name, but he was cheerful and fun), the ambience was very pleasant, as always, and the whole experience was excellent. But, for the first time ever, the Tomato Shed was not *perfect*.

Overall, great job. Keep up the good work.“

“This is an amazing restaurant! The atmosphere and service is top notch and the chef is amazing. We had the pimento chitin start followed by the fried chicken with cheese Mac and collard greens and finished it off with banana pudding. Simple dishes but to prepare them correctly takes great talent, to prepare them the way they did takes great talent. My compliments to the chef!!!“

“I am giving a combined 4 stars because while this place was good, it is definitely overpriced. I paid $25 for 2 coffees and that just seems outrageous to me. I love coffee and I've tried a lot of different places, none as costly as this. The coffee was also just fine, it wasn't anything special.

The area is very nice though! There's a nature center nearby that had a baby gator, opossum, and much more. While I recommend, just don't plan on finding anything reasonably priced.“

Once I was seated everything was great. Honestly I do not know how they fry their shrimp so perfectly every single time. Fresh, local fried shrimp. I’ve not had better anywhere.“

“I am a long time fan of Java Java.I have been coming here for over 13 years. They just changed their gluten free oat bar recipe and it is amazing!! The breakfast sandwich is perfect when you want a quick bite. I also love their coffee much more than ANYWHERE else in Freshfields. It isn't bitter and the cortado is made just perfectly. 13/10 would recommend to anyone looking for an amazing pastry or coffee plus they make a delicious fig prosciutto sandwich for lunch.“
