We just stumbled into Bakehouse in Charleston and were pleasantly surprised. The staff was very…read morefriendly, and the atmosphere felt welcoming right away. My husband and I only grabbed coffee, but it was very good. The coffee was smooth and flavorful, and I love when places take the extra step to decorate the top of a latte -- even when it's in a to-go cup. It's such a small detail, but it makes it feel special. The pastries and baked goods looked delicious, but we weren't hungry enough to try anything this time. We'll definitely have to go back for that. The only downside was that the interior could use some updating. The booth seats were torn and ripped, and when I see that, I can't help but wonder what else might not be fully maintained. A refresh would really elevate the overall experience. There is one small chair outside where you can sit with your pup, which is a nice little touch. Overall, great coffee and friendly service -- worth stopping in!

I enjoyed the strawberry shortcake, blueberry cheesecake, cinnamon sugar and maple bacon. Sign up for their rewards club for $5 off on your first purchase. For non-vegans, pass on the vegan donuts- they were dry, cankey, lackluster and fell short of what parlor doughnuts is known for (see my photos). They varied by toppings but because the donut base wasn't great, it felt like you had 3 of the same thing. For $4-5 each, this definitely was not for me.

One issue in particular is exactly where one is supposed to stand to order???--- its kind of confusing. Several customers were skipped over even though they had arrived first, but they simply didn't know where to place their order. Several cashiers were jumping back and forth from the drive-thru to the lobby too, which made it feel chaotic. Lots of various donuts, breakfast sandwiches, coffees, etc. are available. The menu was larger than we expected. The donuts are terrific. They aren't super unique in their creativity or recipes, but they are crafted well and are brioche style, not cake like at all. Very light! They are a real treat and worth the cost. Despite the hiccup in the lobby ordering system and its chaos, we will definitely return to try other donuts we didn't try this first time in.

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.

They delivered to his office & knowing I was in Ca she took a picture of my son receiving his baked goods & sent it to me! Over the top service & can I say some of the guys got on the phone to tell me how incredible these desserts were. Thank you Trisha for making my son's birthday that much sweeter! I will certainly be back!

Plus a lot of the bakeries in the area close at 6. So I found Sweet Dreams on here and decided to give it a try. I called in an order around 5:45 and had fresh cupcakes and still warm from the oven cookies at my door by 8pm. Needless to say it made his day and I was more than impressed with everything. We ordered a sampler pack and had her pick out a variety for us. We ended up with some cinnamon things (yum!), apple supremes (husband's favorite so far), and several types of cupcakes as well as some warm chocolate chip cookies. My favorite is the chocolate cupcake. I've had cupcakes from some of the best bakeries and this one is right up there with them. It's moist, it's light, it's rich but not cloying, it's super chocolatey and it's just the right amount to satisfy that chocolate craving. I'll have to add more to my next order because my son claimed one and then wanted a bite of mine too! We still have a few more things to try but I expect they will all be just as good. She does take credit cards, you can pay ahead by phone or at the door, perfect since I rarely have cash on me anymore!

We noticed that both of our orders came in a smaller 12 ounce size rather than the larger 16 ounce that we ordered. We brought it up, and the staff apologized and made us an additional 12 ounce each to make up for the mistake. We were super pleased with their customer service, and even more so that we ended up with full tummies of 24 ounces of dessert! We had the Affogato and Twix, and the Affogato was our favorite. It's coffee, chocolate, and vanilla with brownie bits. We also loved that the staff came over to our table to check on us and chatted, which was sweet and personable. The ambience was quiet and clean inside too. Vampire Penguin is our absolute favorite, and they made our Mother's Day eating adventure very special.
