Service was great! The people working at the counter were friendly and helpful. When we went, it seemed better for takeout because all of the seats were filled. We had a frozen spiked lemonade which was tasty, but not strong. The cookie was my favorite part. It’s nice for a quick bite and drink.

I think the hours have changed? It seems like they close at 6 now. Every time I go the service and coffee are excellent. Sandwiches taste homemade, pastries are delightful.

Nice little coffee shop and bakery in downtown Charleston. We enjoyed an Americano and pastry on a rainy day. It is worth trying if you are in the area.

Delicious coffee in a very tourist convenient location! Walking distance to 4 Corners of Law, Waterfront Park and the Battery. Next time I am going to try a pastry. Bistro seats outside and lots of tables inside. Excellent spot to people watch and pretty view of downtown architecture.
