“The Grasshopper Toast was an amazing blend of flavors!“

“Love sightsee shop!!! The worst part about leaving Charleston was leaving sightsee.“

“Living in Summerville, I have yet to find a "real" bakery. Fortunately, one of my coworkers turned me onto Wildflower. Since I work downtown, I make a point to visit the bakery at least once a week. The staff is friendly and helpful and the selection is vast.“

“Super Delicious breakfast in a cozy laid-back Atmosphere!!!“

“We adored this place! We accidentally found the downtown Charleston location during our stay there at a close AirBNB! We visited 3 times in our 2.5 days there. Then, we passed by the John’s Island location on our way to Kiawah and decided to make the 25 min drive the next morning for our coffee and pop tart fix! Great coffee, service, pastries, toasts and local drink and food finds!“

“My breakfast sandwich might have altered the very essence of who I am, and I’m a better man because of it. Want to feel like you’ve stepped into a new era, go to The Daily and experience what great food and coffee is meant to be like.My cold brew was phenomenal.“

“So happy to have this shop in West Ashley. Their baguettes in croissants are such a treat and not that I’m an expert, but seem true to European standards, if not better than my memories. As expected at the end of the the day they were out of most pastries, so I grabbed a coffee cake and simple egg & cheese on baguette. My 2 yr old was getting fussy, so as was going to tell him I have to go to the car, the kind cook read my mind. He offered to bring it to me. Simplicity made heavenly. I haven’t tried the coffee cake yet bc my daughter hasn’t let me have a bite. Lol looks delicious tho!“

“Best coffee shop around. First of all, the coffee is high quality and tasty, & the size of the large, medium, and small actuality is that. So many local places offer a medium/large and its tiny as can be or they only have one size and it's small but the price reflects a large size (Huriyali etc) It's nice during these days of shrinkflation to actually get what you pay for and on point in taste/quality. The staff is always friendly and efficient. ❤️“

“I had a breakfast burrito. It was more than what I can eat, but it was so tasty.“

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The drinks, food, service and overall vibe were as welcoming and down-to-earth as I’ve always had in NY. Our server Leah was patient, suggested great drinks, and the owner (Bryn) herself was running with the team. I had to let her know how amazing everything was and that I can’t wait to become a regular! The decor and creative ambiance will keep you entertained as well as the upbeat and dynamic music selection. We tasted about half the menu, but held back in anticipation of our next visit. Don’t miss this gem of the city…you won’t forget it!Parking: Adjacent to the restaurant. Perfect location!“

“Very cool coffee place. The location was great by Charleston College and King St. Yummy desserts and snacks. Wasn't a big fan of my coffee selection. It was a little bitter and had to dump. Sorry ?Perhaps it wasn't my type of coffee.“

“Great place to focus and work. The vibes inside are second to none for coffee shops. The barista is very friendly.The coffee could use some work. We heard this is one of the only roasters in town. I'm glad to see roasters in Charleston but the coffees could be more interesting and higher quality.“

“Great bagels and coffee! Will be back“
