“We were for the memorial day weekend & was on lookout for good breakfast places.
This was one of the best.
Great food, clean place, quick service.
Until your order arrives you can entertain the kids in play area which is 20 steps away.
If you go early you can get your order quicker & grab good table to be seated.
Value for money.“

“Excellent food, service and decor.“

“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.“

“We recently went to Linettes for high tea and it was a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was beautiful with amazing decor and lovely views! The staff were all incredibly kind and we had Angela as a server! She was wonderful and very charismatic! We never felt rushed or unwanted and overall really enjoyed our experience! Shout out to all the staff and especially Angela! Beautiful time!!“

“Seriously the best Cuban sandwich I have ever eaten and I spent time in Miami! The pork was tender and delicious and really set the bar high for the rest of the sandwich which was exceptional! Give this a go if you are in the area!“

“I got the bacon cheeseburger with a gluten free bun. It was amazing!“

“Love sitting outside and watching the boats come in and go out… ♥️“

“Best breakfast I have EVER had at any restaurant! I got the Bistro shrimp and grits, and my husband got the crab shrimp and grits. Both were perfect, and I've never rated anything perfect before. The servers were quick, amiable, and amusing. They kept telling us that our table smelled good as they walked by. ☺️. The only problem is that this restaurant is about 4 hours from our home. Sigh.“

“The best fish tacos, and shrimp tacos I’ve had outside of Baja (and maybe be better than those too)!“

“Casually stopped in for dinner once last week and was back 3 times the same week. Delicious food, fast service, awesome atmosphere, dog friendly!! Loved everything I have tried so far!“

“the food is fantastico !! second time here! will be back.“

“Great food. Great atmosphere. Awesome waitress. 5 stars from me“

“Java Java Café is a great spot in Freshfields Village for fresh food and excellent coffee. The ingredients always taste fresh, and the customer service is outstanding—friendly, welcoming, and attentive every time. I highly recommend The Club for lunch; it’s filling and packed with great flavor. Be sure to ask about their seasonal specials, as they often have fun, limited-time options worth trying. A must-visit for breakfast or lunch!“

“One of our favourite spots on the island“

“Kids food was reasonably priced and portions were solid. The seafood platter was not great and looked thrown together quickly, but tacos were fantastic. The view and atmosphere were also wonderful. I would probably go back just for that part of the experience.“

“View of course is great! The food has always been good and the servers also! My favorite time is when the weather is suitable for rooftop dining with a moderate crowd and live music!“
