So worth the trip out here on our way out of town. The biscoff stuffed french toast special was divine. Im huge griits fan and the make your own grits bowl was a hit. Tasty turkey bacon. Service was quick and friendly. Stop here. You will be happy

If I could give Kiss more than 5 stars, I would. They graciously hosted our party of 10, and the service was exceptional. The owner even came over to check on us, and made it a point to acknowledge our friend’s birthday. The Hershey kisses they gave us at the end were such a cute touch! We will definitely be returning the next time we visit Charleston!

Been long time fans of Kiss cafe but something has changed. Prices are high, but the omelette eggs were overcooked and not good taste. $13 and does not include potatoe or hash brown. They opened bagels which I intended to buy until I saw the insane price of $25 for a dozen. WTH??

KISS is one of my absolute favorite places to eat. The food is not only consistent but consistently delicious. The staff is friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable of the menu. Breakfast is always available and they have great lunch menu. The owner is a chef himself. He is almost always present and takes such pride in his business and establishment. I recommend making KISS a priority if you have not done so yet!♥️

On vacation. Food allergy - gluten. Very Serious.Chef Timothy personally prepared a safe meal for me. Twice.Wonderful experience. Family loved their food as well, even the kids.Dietary restrictions: I have celiac disease and am never able to eat out at restaurants.Chef Timothy personally prepared gluten-free salads for me on two occasions. Two weeks later I feel great - He knows what he is doing and I trust him.

Kiss cafe is sooooo good! Went here on a Sunday morning during the brunch rush for a table for 2. We were told about a 25-35 minute wait but they take your number and call you. The area is walkable (we grabbed a coffee at Island Provisions) and the wait was way less than the estimated time!We started with a couple of cocktails which were delicious, (I recommend the raspberry gin fizz). They serve breakfast all day and lunch beginning at 11 and we both were feeling more like lunch and ordered the Bahn Mi which was arguably the best Bahn Mi I've had outside of NYC. I had the house made salt and vinegar chips as my side, but there is a variety of options to choose for your side! Our server could also tell that we were deep into conversations and she did such a great job of popping in and out to take our orders without trying to rush us! From the outside you may assume this is just a diner vibe place but I promise you it is so much more than that!

Cute place - way too $$$$$ for breakfast. Smallish portions. Weird seasonings. Not worth drive down Maybank

Great experience here on Saturday! Definitely recommend arriving earlier as by the time we left around 10:45 there was alot of groups waiting. The inside was comfortable and clean. Even with full tables and bar, it never got too loud. Parking is pretty easy but not right in front due to the set up of the center. Our waitress was kind and efficient, not the most attentive but we never felt like we didn't have what we needed. Coffee was great! The New Yorker sandwich and grit bowl were both well executed. Anything with the house made sausage will be great!
