We have become regulars there.....food is delicious, staff is friendly and service is great. Whether you sit at the bar or bring your family to the table, everything is consistent and delicious!“

“Amazing food. Probably the best old fashioned I’ve had. Our server was awesome and so was the manager. My steak was over cooked and they insisted they get me a new one. The one they brought back out was probably the best steak I’ve had in Charleston. We will be back!“

“Fun atmosphere, cool decorations throughout, and good service“

“Great food and environment“

“My business partner and I had an incredible dining experience at Five Loaves Cafe in Summerville last night. As the owner of Forsh & Lofton Logistics LLC, I have a deep appreciation for businesses that prioritize atmosphere, attention to detail, and a 'white-glove' level of service—and Five Loaves delivered on all fronts. The dinner menu was exceptional, and the ambiance in the historic house provided the perfect sophisticated yet welcoming environment for our meeting. It’s clear the team here holds themselves to a high standard of excellence, from the kitchen to the front of house. Whether you're looking for a top-tier dinner spot or a professional setting for a business meal, this is a Lowcountry gem. We will definitely be back!“

“Great food and service. Chef was very accommodating to a food allergy with alternative prep and substitutions. Grace was a great server. Nice decor and design. Atmosphere was hip and comfortable without feeling uptight. Delicious craft cocktails.“

“Yummy food! And affordable.“

“I threw a surprise birthday party with 30 guests. It was terrific. The upstairs had plenty of room and seating for everyone. The food was excellent with a great selection. Staff and bartenders were very friendly, accommodating and professional. My guest could mingle upstairs or go outside and listened to a very good band. I absolutely recommend having your next gathering here!“

“Great food! And the atmosphere is outstanding, overlooking the Wando river. Outdoor seating is especially nice and there’s a play area for kids. Highly recommend.“

“Staff is very good, super attentive and friendly. Food is decent. Not great, what you’d expect from bar food but expedited very well. Beer list isn’t good but a surprisingly good bourbon list. Want to become a regular for music trivia but the acoustics are just awful. You can barely hear the sound and they rush through the game. Need to address the issue with the sound.“

“Love my workout classes and pool when open“

“the staff was delightful. I got a terrific burger and amazing brussel sprouts with a whipped feta on top! tasted very original and delicious. Sometimes they have an amazing guitarist named Doug who entertains us with beautiful renditions of Pink Floyd and much more!“

“I am not one of those people who post my daily activity or what food I'm eating or rate the places I eat..until now.. I'm from New York so I've had my share of diner muffins.. I go out to breakfast 7 days a week x 365 days a year .. have had my morning meal in several South Carolina establishments..you get the picture. Sunrise Bistro recently hired a a baker, Maddy. I have had a blueberry, lemon, cranberry/orange and nutella/raspberry muffin..I can say without hesitation these are by far the best muffins I have ever had. Maddy is even going to indulge me with a bran muffin. THANK YOU SUNRISE BISTRO .. THANK YOU MADDY!!“

“Kaely and the team at Crush Yard did an excellent job hosting our group social event. Kaely made the scheduling process seamless, and when I needed to reschedule due to circumstances beyond my control, she was understanding and extremely helpful. During the event, the Crush Yard team was attentive, accommodating, and provided professional service throughout. I highly recommend them for any group event.“

“Arrived in town 6/28 and leaving 7/4. We've been here every night for dinner. Great Sports Pub vibe! Good food and a great staff. I normally don't do reviews but two people stood out to me, Rob and Elena. They both were there every single day we went in. Elena was holding down the food and Rob managing the Pub. I didn't get to know the other staff's names but these two I can't say enough about. They are the reason we came back. I know one thing, they both deserve a day off! They both worked really hard to keep this Pub rocking! Thanks again and hope to see you soon.“

“I booked a small work party and it was so fun! We enjoyed a cocktail outside where everyone broke off into different games and seating arrangements. We booked 2 lanes and bowled a round of duck pin bowling. Great for companies but can’t wait to return with friends and family!! Pro tip: you don’t have to pre book and the outside is my very favorite! Looking forward to brunch with friends out there!“

“Our food was amazing! The ladies working last night were the best! They were kind and helpful! You can't beat friendly employees!“

“My go to place for a burger. Always amazing deals, and the kids LOVE it. Coaches Canteen for the win every Thursday $5 kids meals!“

“We have been visiting the southern for over a decade, and it remains one of the last few great Mt P dives with an excellent kitchen. The staff has always been amazing and attentive, even when things get a little wild late night. The fresh squeezed grapefruit and orange drinks are some of the cheapest in town, and they make one of the best cheesesteaks in the area. Highly recommend a visit if you like unpretentious spots with that local vibe. It looks like the business is being targeted by trolls who have never visited, but we can clearly say you should trust the locals. I have never been uncomfortable in there, but don’t walk in expecting a Hall’s experience. It’s a bar first, just with good food options.“

“The chicken and biscuits from Raise the Roost inside the 7-Eleven on Newtown Road and Providence are, by far, the worst I've ever had. The chicken was either overcooked and dry, with burnt outsides and —likely due to improper fryer temperatures or incorrect timer settings. The coating was thick and cakey, indicating poor preparation. Even the green beans had no seasoning or taste. I recommend not using salt if you decide to season. To top it off, the bathrooms were in horrible and smelly condition. I would've returned the food if I had time. Thumbs down! I took pictures but you cannot upload“

“I came in last Tuesday and had such a lovely experience. Kelly went above and beyond as a server and was such a beautiful soul. She recommended the rotisserie chicken which of course did not disappoint and was so attentive. The tzatziki was mouth watering and the Mac and cheese felt like heaven. I don’t have enough kind words in my vocabulary to say how wonderful the service was, specifically kelly. I wasn’t going to get dessert but kelly hyped it up so much that I could not resist getting it. She needs to be given a raise or something cause my dining experience was 1000000/10. I will be coming back all the time for the food but also for the service!“

“my first time was a pleasant greeting ☺ from Philadelphia Pa.“

“Great food, great service!“

“My roommate and I came to First Watch and ordered the steak chimichurri and eggs. They were out of steak, but the manager kindly replaced it with chicken at no charge. Such a thoughtful gesture! Great service and hospitality — we’ll definitely be back.“

“Manhattans is a great place to have a drink with friends, Friday karaoke nights are a blast and they have a great billiards setup. It doesn’t matter what problems there are in the world, you can always count on Manhattans for a great time!“

“We just moved to the area so we already have a favorite restaurant!! Love how it’s so cozy and how the food is amazing and the staff is fast and will check in with you to make sure you are good and happy! Love it! would TOTALLY RECOMMEND!!“

“This place was awesome. The food did not take long to order or receive. Our male waiter was extremely polite and prompt to all our service needs. Our steak 🥩 was so tender and juicy, and the lobster 🦞 tail was seasoned so perfectly. The 🥗 was amazing. We will definitely be visiting again.“

“Ashley is the best! We love this place!“

“Good food. Great service. Live music. Awesome local pub“

“Wanted a hamburger at 2am. IHOP offered it on the menu.
The waitress was very nice and friendly. The food came out of the kitchen quickly. The coffee was hot and the food was great. It hit the spot and addressed my craving for a cheeseburger at a breakfast place.
I would give it 5 stars, but it just does not rise to that level of cuisine.“
