Convenient location with a modern, romantic aesthetic! A great place to stop and work on your laptop, grab a quick bite, or order a coffee to go. My oat milk latte was delicious and the service was friendly and fast, even with a line of customers. Plenty of seating between 11:00-1:00 when I was there on a Friday.

Loved my latte! I got an iced lavender latte with almond milk and it was perfect. Loved the vibe and there seemed to be ample seating.

Took my boyfriend here because he loves a good cold brew, and Clerks was so good! They had such yummy lunch items, snacks, and bakery items and the atmosphere was so chill. We ate and played tic-tac-toe while waiting for our food. It has a very cute aesthetic, so it's perfect for the brunch girls/guys who love to get a good picture in! 📸

Love love love this place, have been to probably most of Charleston cafes and this is one of my favorites. Their cappuccino has a cute latte art and their coffee cake is to die for. Cookies they serve are also amazing. The place is cozy and service is super nice!

Cute coffee place with plenty of space to sit down and work/relax. I had the Chai latte and a breakfast sandwich. The sandwich was just okay but the chai was really good. Love all the plants in there as well.

Unique drinks, unique bakery goods, very classy and beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff. We tried the Pb+B special and the Almond Joy special and they were both AMAZING!! The pineapple coffeecake was also very tasty and had such great flavor. The prices are reasonable and the location is prime.

My new favorite coffee shop in downtown Charleston. We tried quite a few coffee places and this one stood out. Had a latte and chocolate croissant. Latte was perfect and the warmed up croissant was delicious. The best we found.

Overall: Great spot for a casual breakfast and coffee.

The good: Great atmosphere that's classy without being offputting. Comfortable and unique seating and lighting, with lots of space (inside at least). The baristas were very friendly and the food was great. A hearty biscuit was the highlight of a fluffy breakfast sandwich, and the coffee was on par with the rest of the experience. It's nestled right in a premium hotel, so make sure to check out the amazing bathroom haha.

The not-so-good: A little pricey for a cafe, and the portion sizes aren't huge. If you're extra hungry and looking for a true southern breakfast, this ain't it. Not a huge menu, and not much outdoor seating (especially for COVID).

Food/drink: 8/10
Atmosphere: 9/10
Service: 9/10
