    Latte's Favorite Cookie
    Jessica C.

    Minus two stars for the unpleasant barista today! Maybe she was having a bad day or something, but she was definitely not personable. While making my latte, I asked if she could make it iced (I didn't specify at the register) and she answered as if I should already know that it comes iced. On the other hand, my latte was so good. Small size was about $8 after tax. I finished it in less than 10 minutes.

    Fresh, light, perfect

    Amazing salad. Sweet tea is on point! Right near the visitors center. Get fueled up before you explore the city.

    Balance Bowl

    Bodega should be the next place you visit for brunch! I visited while waiting on my appointment at the Apple Store. I got a glass of their fresh squeezed OJ which I can't get enough of. I decided on the balance bowl for my meal and I couldn't have made a better choice. The bowl was cooked to perfection and packed full of flavor. Service was also top notch! Beware that seating is a tad limited , but they have another location in mount pleasant.

    Amazingggggggggggg Bacon Egg & Cheese!! ( The Bodega Classic) I added the Taylor Ham for a little flair!! Perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, took a bite & it transported me right back to Queens, New York! 10/10! I love the murals on the walls! They've got cute NY inspired merch too! The girl who helped me was super nice! I'll def be back when I visit Charleston!

    I want to be very clear, I came to Charleston to eat. Bodega delivered on that challenge. I started off with a cinnamon brown sugar latte. It was delicious. Not too sweet and the whipped cream on top was perfection. Next came my breakfast sandwich. I went with the classic. I added avocado and ham. It was full of protein and flavor. I really enjoyed the softness of the bread with cheesy goodness that meshed very well with avocado. Our server was extra attentive and delivered all of our food piping hot. The spotlight was the pancakes though. We went with the apple flavored toppings and it was like a nice warm fall day on a plate. I left stuffed and ready for a walk, just the way I like it.

    The breakfast sandwiches and the smoked salmon sandwich were great. We also tried the groupfather sandwich, which comes with chicken breast and pesto. Unfortunately, the chicken was dry and tasted like it might have been leftover--it didn't seem fresh. I should have checked the food before leaving, as I believe the staff would have gladly fixed the issue. They were very nice and attentive overall.

    it was just chill vibes all around. the food took about 30 minutes to come out and when it did, our server didn't ask if everything looked good or anything like that. not sure yet if it's that kind of place. the food was good though. the cow was very flavorful and the avocado toast was refreshing. my boyfriend had the pancakes and he ate it all up. music was very loud. just like a fancier waffle house.

    We had a wonderful family Sunday brunch this weekend at Bodega. The food was super fresh and delicious. I got the Balance Bowl which featured the perfect amount of pesto to tie together the egg whites, vegan sausage crumble, home fries, cherry tomatoes and spinach. We shared these french toast sticks that came with a pudding/ custard-situation for dipping, which were so good I forgot to get a picture of them! Our server was super sweet and we got to hang out for sometime without feeling rushed. I really loved the art too, it was bright and upbeat :) A super cute spot to stop in for some food.

    Chopped Cheese Sandwich

    We really wanted to like this place but it was disappointing. The drinks were not as good as the descriptions. While the sandwiches looked tasty, they were dry and bland. It was also hard to enjoy them with all the flies! Unfortunately, we will not be returning.

    I was really excited to try Bodega, the vibes are cute, the menu looked tasty, and the location was great. Our server was doing her best, but apparently you can't build your own sandwich, so she tried to tailor a sandwich on the menu to be vegan. Had I known it was such an issue I would have just ordered something off the menu. Needless to say, my sandwich came out with egg on it. I would definitely go back, but don't expect to be able to customize your order.

    This is the Traditional Benedict. If you look at the whites, you will see these eggs are uncooked. They slid right off their bases.

    I met three others here for a friend's lunch. The gal I drove with and I discussed "lunch" once we were headed back. She brought it up, and once I realized she had a bad experience, we shared our observations and agreed never again. I snapped a photo of my meal only, the Traditional Benedict. Save your money. These were inedible, raw eggs. The whites were still translucent. The potatoes were cold, not even warm, just cold. Just an all-around disappointment for $16+. The $8 watermelon lemonade was good. I should have stopped there. So, I had a $30 lunch (I'm now including the gratuity I left), and I had to eat once I arrived back home. I did leave a gratuity because it wasn't the waiter's fault. However, I left a lower gratuity than I usually would due to the fact that he cleared away four largely still full plates and bowls from the table and never once bothered to ask if everything was okay. Trust me, the portion sizes are not big here, so when you send 50% back to the kitchen and there wasn't much to begin with, it should be obvious to anybody there's a problem. Inside is clean. Lots of televisions playing old cartoons, so could be cute.

    This place was the perfect place to have delicious food in a fun environment. I loved the Bodega so much, I can not stop sharing my experience with my friends. The food is reasonably priced and the coffee was delicious. Perfect as a sit down restaurant and a drop in cafe.

    I ordered the Lowcountry breakfast sandwich and cinnasticks. The Lowcountry sandwich had housemade breakfast Sausage, egg, cheddar and sausage gravy. Delicious! The cinnasticks were good!

Iced coffee was refreshing I came back the next morning for another round. It was flavorful yet not sugary. It definitely gave me a kick and got addicted to it, except I'm only in the area for 4 days. Staff and manager were friendly yet professional. Although I was charged twice, the manager assured me they would fix it once the line was manageable. Somehow I trusted her word for it, just the manner with which she handled it was text book! Indeed, saw the overcharged taken care of by the next day. A must stop in downtown historic Charleston for sure! Great awesome pastries, sandwiches Parisian style made and clean refreshing breakfast beverages.

The pastry case was full and beautiful with savory and sweet options. There's a fair amount of indoor seating and a few outdoor tables. I ordered a hazelnut latte which was bold and delicious. Despite saying I was dining in, it was served in a to go cup - I do wish I received it in a cup/mug. I also tried the almond croissant which was flaky and not overly sweet. The croque monsieur was indulgent and cheesy - although, I wish it was slightly hotter when served. The portion of everything matched the price.

Luckily, we were able to be seated immediately but it was very close quarters with surrounding tables. The menu is vast with different dessert options. If you want to know what cakes are available, you should check out the display stand right when you enter. Since we were there 2.5 hours before closing, there didn't seem to be a lot of cake options available, but my husband and I decided to share a slice of the s'mores cake with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream to make it à la mode. The s'mores cake was a chocolate cake with mini marshmallows, chocolate fudge, graham crackers, and more marshmallows. The cake was good and had everything I could ever want in it, but it was a little dry. I think this also had to do with it being the end of the night. The ice cream complemented the flavor well. It would have been better with a second scoop of ice cream though. Service was great! It took about 10 minutes from when we ordered to get our dessert. I would probably come back here again, but not so late at night so there would be fresher cake with more options available.

We waited about 5 to 10 minutes to be acknowledged while two employees stood nearby. The two layer chocolate caramel pecan cake, which our waitress initially could not find, was dry and tasted stale. I would not order it again. The Tollhouse pie was a bit better, but the presentation and the whipped cream were the standouts, and the whipped cream wasn't even homemade! That's the best thing I could say about our experience. The food, pricing, service, and ambiance all fell below average. When you are located downtown with so many great dessert options around, you really need to step up your game. We will not be returning.
