Menu options were not traditional in a good way. Excellent options and the brie, apple, honey and prosciutto panini I got was excellent. Cortado was really good too. Waffle was good but not enough fruit in my opinion. Liked that we had game options and could just hangout.

Small and quaint coffee shop; coffee was really good, but we couldn’t really taste the specific flavors/syrups we ordered (dragon something & rose/cardamom). They were both VERY good lattes, the syrups could just bd stronger. Chocolate croissant was average, breakfast sandwich was really good, and yogurt parfait was really good and fresh! We’d come back. Only complaint is it was a bit pricy for what we got. Almost $45 with tip for coffee & light breakfast.

Absolutely delightful! The food and coffee were excellent, staff were lovely, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The menu offers a range from standard cafe fare to some fun, unique options. We liked this place so much we had to stop by twice during our short trip to Charleston.

Since we were nearby we decided to give this a try. Walking in we were unsure as to what the procedure was for dining in. The counter is cluttered with high objects and we could see a small open space at the end where there was a register but did not know if we should wait to be seated or what. No one looked up or greeted us as the gaggle of young ladies behind the counter were busy talking and giggling. I walked to the register and stood there watching them….and waited. Finally one glanced over and I said we’d never been there before, what was the procedure if we wanted to sit down. Okay then, menus hung on the wall to my right, order, given a number then pick a table. I explained that I’d never had a coffee with a design and was that possible? (I’d seen the pictures on Google with actual coffee cups and designs) Yes the young lady assured me she’d have them make me something special.

Please see attached photo for what I received. Not an actual cup or design. I did see several other guests receive their lattes in regular coffee cups with nice designs…I must say the avocado toast was excellent.

The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast burrito tasted like airline food or a little worse. The English breakfast tea was excellent. The parking was easy and close, but it was a Sunday.

Came here from out of town with a local friend and we were very disappointed. I ordered the breakfast sandwich on a croissant which was the only positive. I asked for half sweetener in my latte and received what tasted like double. The barista and cashier were audibly making fun of customers in front of everyone. They did not seem happy to be there. My friend ordered a danish and the avocado bowl. The danish was good, but the bowl is just a deconstructed avocado toast for $15. You only get half of an avocado. It took 20 minutes to come out after my sandwich had already arrived and was cold. The sunny side up egg was cooked through the middle but also somehow had raw egg whites? She did not receive any of the chimichurri.

Overall, I do not recommend. It was freezing inside, the tables were dirty, and the runners just threw food on the table and walked away.

$3 for a 12 ounce coffee and it did not taste good. Reminded me of convenience store coffee. The pumpkin muffin was OK, a bit dry

My favorite cafe by far! I get the most basic thing here but they somehow always seem to make it so exquisite! I highly recommend!

Went for coffee. It tasted okay, slightly burnt espresso. The store is cute though if you like DnD. Lots of owl bear figurines/art. I liked the bookish nerdy vibe of the shop a lot and only wished the drinks were better.

Great coffee. It was great to find a coffee place that made a drink sweet without being sickeningly sweet.
