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. This is the best patisserie option which actually lives up to its name, unlike those wannabe k ones!!!

We've had the blueberry muffin, peach turnover, pain au chocolate, olive oil citrus muffin, banana chocolate croissant, and the macaroons. I would personally skip the macaroons - they weren't very good as far as filling and flavor went 24$ for 6 not very good cookies was disappointing. Everything else was great! And like I said coffee (all of it) is super!!

On the way out of town we stopped for pastries. I had a blueberry filled…read more It was sooooo good that you should never order the last one. Why? Because if I need it and it's not there I'll come find you. :) The filling was the best filling I've ever had. The baked portion, too. And I grew up enjoying the bakeries of NYC and the area. What made it so good? It was not a disgustingly sweet, gelatinous blob. It had what I could only call a "natural" style filling. Not gelatinous. Not super sweet. One bite and you'll know that this is the way it's really supposed to be. It will ruin your enjoyment of all other blueberry danishes. Like I said, don't order one. :) Bon appétit.

I literally had the best almond croissant of my life! The chocolates were also mind blowing! They look stunning and taste even more amazing. There are even a few unusual flavored chocolates like bleu cheese (don't knock it until you try it)!! You can also order their hot chocolate/coffee drink and won't be disappointed!! Prices run on the high end here, but as a tip, stop in during their "happy hour" which I believe is a two hour window where chocolates are buy one get one free. It's cute inside but even cuter on their back patio area which showcases a fun European style painted wall. I can't wait to return!

Most pieces had a little bit of fat on them. It also comes with this side of creamy rice, veggies, and sausage dish. It was savory and full of spices, neither spicy nor sweet. It was just very good. The Coxcinha (Brazilian chicken croquette) filled with seasoned chicken and cheese was a savory treat. I would definitely get that again. They also serve Brazilian style pizza starting at 6. The young man at the counter was very helpful and shared the ingredients of each item. He also had a great attitude. They have tables and chairs inside; also a restroom.

The staff was amazing--one of the girls took her time helping me pick out a coffee she knew I'd love, which I really appreciated. We had our dog with us, so we sat outside, and she even brought the pastry out to us--such a nice touch! The croissant was good, but I personally prefer a lot of chocolate and felt it was a little light (just my taste). Overall, definitely worth giving them a try!

Price was a touch high, around $8 for a 12 ounce coffee, but the coffee was absolutely fantastic, sweet but not like a coffee milkshake, zero acid, great flavor but the coffee taste still sone through.

I was looking for a cake for our marine who finished boot camp at Parris Island. I did some…read moreinternet searches and found this place. I explained why we were in the area and what I wanted. "Marine colors, chocolate interior, platoon number, etc." We drove almost an hour to pick this up. If it weren't for the editable paper insignia, one would guess it was for a baby shower with the colors used. To make matters worse, the lid smashed into the top layer while we were driving back. I should have NOT bought it but felt weird since we went to the guy's house to pick it up. His store front had closed. We ended up leaving it at the Airbnb and not presenting it to our marine because it looked so bad. I'm sure it tasted good, but lacked in presentation. I was really disappointed. Russ did offer to come by and fix the top but by the time we connected we were no longer at the house and the cake was in the trash.

We each ordered a panini. I went with the vegetarian option and my husband had the smoked salmon. Both were very good--fresh ingredients and tasty flavors--and came with a small side salad. Nothing extravagant, but solid and satisfying. Afterward, we lingered with coffee and pastries. The chocolate-filled pastry and the pecan almond cinnamon roll were both excellent, and the coffees were tasty (though my café au lait was a bit on the smaller side). The standout was the service. The young lady working the counter was genuinely friendly, helpful, and patient as we asked questions and took our time deciding. It made the whole visit feel welcoming. Overall, although the price was a bit high for lunch and dessert, we had a pleasant experience and will definitely be back for another lunch or just to grab pastries and coffee. A nice local French bakery vibe without being fussy. Recommended.

This cozy little spot, sits in an older plaza off Old Trolley Rd in Summerville. The owner couldn't have been nicer. We got a peanut chocolate pie that was just so good. The peanut butter filing was rich, and the crust was more like a chocolate brownie. We also got 2 chocolate chip cookies. The cookie was large and dense, which we thought was perfect for sharing. The center of cookie was loaded chocolate, and was just so good. We are sure to go back and try some of the other options.

I also ordered a latte and was excited to see they use king bean for their espresso, which is a really good local brand. The only thing I didn't like was the Torani syrup for flavors. It's a personal preference as a former barista, but making your own syrups or using Monin tastes better in my opinion. I ordered a whoopie pie as well to go and it was good. It was pretty sweet and large so it took about 3 days to eat. It still seems like they are working out the kinks as a newly opened business. I look forward to this fall holiday season and what they will come out with next!
