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!!!

Has indoor and outdoor seating with display case for all the pastries and food they serve Food: crossiant, chocolate banana crossiant and iced vanilla latte. The crossiant was light and fluffy and not too overly buttery. The chocolate banana crossiant had a good proportion of filling to pastry so it wasn't overly full but you were able to get the flovor I. Each bite. The ice vanilla latte was good, not too sweet. Parking: it's on king street in Charleston so some side street parking but parking may be much difficult on weekends. It is a walkable area

The Butter Me Up breakfast sandwich was huge and so shareable, packed with bacon, avocado, and egg on a crumbly, buttery biscuit--pure breakfast heaven. To drink, the turmeric chai latte was hot, comforting, and refreshing all at once. Honestly, if you're in Charleston and love cozy spots with epic pastries and breakfast, Harken Cafe is a must!

When I first entered I told her I had made the mistake of choosing "outdoor patio" for our reservation (90% humidity) which she told me "not problem, we went ahead and got you an indoor table", AMAZING. My husband got the Coastal Cola (like drinking a Coca Cola while eating boiled peanuts...really, and it's amazing). For dinner we split the following Tier 1 Tower - The oysters were fresh, the smoked amberjack pate was clean and filling, and the peel and eat shrimp were flavorful. For my husband's second beverage he ordered a "Loaded Hamms" (not on the menu but they'll know) with their homemade hot sauce. Smoked Bird Island Oysters - OMG it was so simple yet so flavorful and fresh. They make their own hot sauce which is very flavorful with a touch of spice. We loved it. Charcoal Grilled Royal Reds - The eggplant puree with like a Baba ghanoush but with a little more flavor and pizazz. The shrimps were so tender and again flavorful. For desert we split the corn ice cream with blackberry jam and graham cracker crumbles. It was amazing. We highly recommend "The Ordinary"; the food was phenomenal and the service was exceptional.

I remembered enjoying it during my first stay, so naturally I had to return. This time around I stopped by twice during our two-night stay. On my first visit, I was tempted by the limited-time LoveShackFancy collaboration and ordered the Pistachio Rose Matcha Cloud Latte. It sounded amazing: house-made pistachio rose syrup, your choice of milk, topped with fluffy matcha cold foam and rose petals. Unfortunately... it was way (way) too sweet. And this is coming from someone who usually likes sweet drinks. At $10, I powered through it, but it definitely wasn't for me. My friend ordered another one of the collaboration drinks and did not finish hers because it was overwhelmingly sweet. Thankfully, my second visit redeemed everything. I went back to an old favorite - an iced matcha latte - and it was just what I was hoping for. Service was excellent during both visits. While the cafe seems to remain pretty popular, it wasn't overwhelmingly crowded. I still love the atmosphere here. It's such a great place to grab a drink before heading out to explore Charleston or while staying at the Emeline. Lesson learned: sometimes the specials are worth trying... and sometimes it's best to stick with your favorite!

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.

I ended up leaving with eight bags of single-origin beans from all over the world. Having worked my way through about half of them so far, I've been very impressed by the consistent quality and clean, vibrant flavors across the board. I'm a bit of a coffee-snob so this is saying something! While it's a bit on the pricey side, that's simply the reality of specialty coffee these days, and the craftsmanship here at least justifies it. I highly recommend supporting these wonderful folks--especially if you love lighter roasts with sweet, bright tasting notes. They have been the absolute perfect way to start my mornings!
