    Croissant sausage egg and cheese sandwich
    Carolyn L.

    Neighborhood staple. Most of the time, they're filled with neighborhood regulars. Who just want a simple breakfast or lunch meal that's quick, cheap but more gourmet than the typical fast food around Tega Cay. The place is cozy and small. Nothing fancy. You look for what you want. They will make it there. Bring it out hot or cold. I enjoyed my croissant sausage, egg and cheese sandwich. Totally worth my $6 with $2 tips. Happy they have a staple like this in Tega Cay.

    Believe the hype - This place is truly legitimate. This is the closest that you will get to a New York/Long Island Style Sit Down Bagel Shop in the Charlotte Region. I'm amazed how close this place is to our apartment in Charlotte. Bagel sandwiches are made to order and these guys actually will get your order correct. They have a wide array of fresh bagels. Toasting is not necessary! Staff/Crew are incredibly friendly, efficient and polite. I can promise you, you won't get strange looks from staff when you ask for "Scrambled Soft, Everything Bagel - Salt, Butter, Pepper & Ketchup" - Thank You! Great selection of Coffee and Coffee Drinks; - Excellent set up with just the right amount of space to sit down and relax. Staff are efficient and keep things moving right along. Limited "Bottle Necking" - which is a relief. Nevertheless, this place can get very busy. Impressed with the wide assortment of cookies that are sold in the front. Owners are pleasant guys from Massapequa, Long Island. They "Insisted" that I try the Macaroni Salad; - Yes, it was fantastic. We are definitely returning! Calming vibe; All too often, places like this - everyone gets overwhelmed and stressed. These guys really hit the nail on the head with their design of the location and flow/traffic management. Again - Staff are very friendly and customer focused! Bagels were great! Coffee was great! Plenty of parking - don't stress!

    Mostly cream cheese salmon lox bagel ($11)
    Dawn R.

    I heard this place has the same owners as Rock Hill Bagels &Deli, which we love, so we decided to check it out. I got the salmon lox on an Asiago bagel ($11). The bagel just came out of the oven and was excellent. I have to say the Rock Hill location puts more salmon vs cream cheese on this bagel and more capers. This bagel was mostly cream cheese. I also bought bagels to go. You can buy each individually for $1.50 or 6 for $8. I got 6 and selected 2 blueberry, 2 French toast, and 2 cinnamon sugar bagels. The cinnamon sugar bagel gets all over your hands so not the best for the car. The blueberry bagel was excellent. They have several salads available, muffins and croissants. We had the bonus of running into 2 friends while we were there that like this place too ! This place is pricey but good. I prefer the Rock Hill location though.

    Boar's Head Turkey Sandwich
    Tracy S.

    So content I stumbled across this place randomly being in the area and wanted a deli sandwich! The service was pretty quick considering how busy they were. I dined in thirty minutes before close and they were nonstop busy up until the very last minute! The ambiance is typical of a deli. The tables were cleaned regularly. I customized my turkey sandwich. I'm definitely going back. Everything was fresh and delicious every bite! They have soo many options for everything! Just would be nice if it was a little less expensive. I spent $13 for a sandwich and chips. Not a big deal, food was great.

This is the cutest little gem tucked away at the end of a strip mall. The second you walk in, you're greeted by a fun poppy mural and a display of all the delicious pastries of the day. Immediately I'm like, okay, I'm going to like it here! We had about a 20-minute wait, but thankfully there was plenty of time for mimosas and catch up chitchat! And honestly, the time flew by... we weren't even finished with them before we were seated. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the service was on point from there. Someone filled our water glasses almost immediately after we sat down, and we never had a dry cup. Mimosa refills were quick, too! I also grabbed a chai latte that came in the cutest old-school homemade-looking cup and was perfectly warm and spiced. Soooo good! For food, two of us ordered the Fresh Pick Sandwich with fresh tomatoes, stracciatella, kale pesto aioli, arugula, fresh basil and balsamic glaze on perfectly toasted sourdough. I added avocado and bacon and basically turned it into the most deliciously elevated BLT of my life. I also made a pro side swap for my side and went with the cheesy grits. They were delicious. No notes! My friend got the Fresh Pick without tomatoes and added prosciutto, and another friend ordered The Grit with shrimp, and that plate was BEAUTIFUL. Sweet pepper and tomato sauce, mushrooms, crispy onions, arugula and an egg over a plate of grits. Between us, there were clean plates, full bellies and a whole lot of "what are we trying next time?" conversations happening. The food came out quickly, the service was great, the atmosphere was adorable, and it was just an all-around excellent brunch. My only complaints? 1-Why do they have the cutest pastry merch for kids but not adults... I need that "I'm flaky" croissant shirt lol! And 2-Why is this little gem not closer to me?! But clearly that just means I need to make the drive again. Poppyseed Kitchen has officially been added to the "worth the trip" list!

    Wife and I went for lunch. Excellent menu, good service, clean tables and floors and the dishes we…read moreordered were excellent. A rather stark, high-ceiling open floor plan with superb air conditioning. Bring a wrap as it does get chilly. Plates, bowls, sandwiches and salads, along with a kid's menu and miscellaneous snacky items. Prices range from $13 to $18. Decent portions. I had the The Bisquit and Gravy ($12) after asking for a sample taste of their gravy. I have had horrible biscuit and gravy dishes in many places where the gravy was just cooked flowered grease. Not at Poppyseed! It was excellent, flavorful and if you ask for more, you will get it. I did. Wife agreed on the gravy. Wife had the Poppyseed Salad ($12) which was so loaded with cucumbers that annoyed her. Very little lettuce, but lots of other hard veggies. She was not happy. My second choice that lunch day was listed as The Ranch Hash ($18). A fellow diner across from us ordered this hash and said he loved it. It did look good with braised brisket, potato hash and two eggs to order. A very fine portion and will be my order when we return. Parking galore. You will need to turn right when you exit on to Tom Hall Street, unless you get a lucky traffic gap. We will be back, for sure.

It can get quite busy and loud, so it's not the best place for an intimate conversation, and reservations can sometimes be difficult to get. That said, it's absolutely worth it. The menu changes regularly, so I try to visit whenever they announce a new one. Yesterday, we shared several small plates. The bacon-wrapped dates were phenomenal. I almost ordered a second serving before realizing we still had four other dishes coming! The chicken and waffles definitely satisfied my craving--crispy, savory, and full of flavor. The mushroom ravioli was also outstanding. We finished with the stuffed calamari, which reminded me of something my mom used to make when I was younger. It wasn't Asian-inspired like hers, but the concept brought back some wonderful memories. To top it all off, I enjoyed a delicious dessert while feeling pleasantly tipsy from the evening. I'd call that a win!

We ordered two coffees and two breakfast sandwiches and left a 20% tip. Afterward, they let me know that I had accidentally been charged for an extra coffee. They refunded the coffee, but the portion of the tip associated with that extra charge was never refunded. I ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese croissant. Overall, the sandwich was good, but the bacon was way too salty. At first, I thought maybe it was just me, so I had my partner try it--and he agreed. Definitely salty. My caramel coffee was also pretty watered down and just wasn't what I expected, especially for what I paid. On the other hand, my partner really enjoyed everything he ordered, so our experience wasn't all bad. It's definitely a cute neighborhood coffee shop with some great breakfast options, and I can see why people enjoy it. Just a heads-up: if you're in a hurry, I'd recommend ordering ahead. They can get pretty busy in the mornings, and there can be a bit of a wait when ordering in person. I really wanted my second visit to win me over, but unfortunately, I'm still not quite there.
