    Stopped by after a morning walk. The place was very busy, but the line moved very efficiently. Friendly and clean environment. Drinks were a little pricey but very yummy. The outside patio seating was nice and spacious.

    Great atmosphere. Honestly one of the most laid back coffee shops. Indoor and outdoor seating. I love how none-pretentious this place is. I had the matcha latte that was just slightly sweet, just the way I like it. There is always a long line but it moves fast. Staff are friendly.

    This is the perfect spot to drop into for a coffee, breakfast or light lunch. I love riding my bike here to sit in the courtyard and working for a bit on the WiFi. Mic drop moment: the breakfast burrito has tater tots in it! Counter service is quick which is good because it gets busy at peak times. They recently added Apple Pay so that's huge for when you're just out and about. The inside space is loud but lots of seating for a quick meeting or snack with the kids - outside is much nicer with umbrellas, couches and a fire place! It's also walled so you're protected from the breeze off the river. Another plus is the playground right next door for the kids to work off their sugary treats!

    The Dime is the perfect stop for everyday or your weekend! Many coffee choices! My favorite is the Dirty Chai Latte. Also, The Dime offers Smoothies for non-coffee or caffeine drinkers. The Dime has a full menu, fresh bakery items and many prep/grab and go items. The Dime offers GF rotating loaf and this pictured donut which is amazing, along with a few other GF options. There is also little gift ideas inside to grab. There is ample seating inside and outside! They also offer pickup ordering which is usually very busy! The atmosphere is great because of the variety in seating plus a little walking path/green area next door for use as well! The location is beautiful next to the water! It's a must stop on our weekends! Ample parking lot across the green area.

    I thought it was time for an update! I come to Dime weekly, and I will say while the drinks are still hit or miss on occasion, the staff is always absolutely wonderful! Would recommend if you're in the area, but be prepared for longer lines on the weekend.

    Love the DIME! Got A smoothie and while it felt (slightly) overpriced it was absolutely delicious. Friends got a yummy iced tea and coffee. Great spot & location!

    Beautifully located by the water, The Dime is a great coffee and snack spot. None of the menu options caught my eyes food wise, they have sandwiches, toasts, pizza, etc. I got a matcha latte with oatmilk + a honey cupcake with earl grey frosting, which was delightful. The frosting was delish, and honey cupcake tasted like a dense honey cornbread. Made for a great combo. Ambience is super cute, with both indoor and outdoor seating.

    Looking for a coffee shop where I could charge laptops and perhaps do some work, I did not find it in The DIME. It's a lovely spot and with the big windows on three sides, full of sunshine. But the tables in the center are without outlets and the folks inside are eating meals and drinking coffee. It's more "restaurant" than "coffee shop." I had a cortado while I pondered the next step. No complaints and still five stars - the coffee was excellent and it's a great location. Just not one that's good for working. [Review 19456 overall - 1030 in South Carolina - 426 of 2023.]

    We stopped into The Dime after dining at the Kings Tide. This was a beautiful little shop with coffee, chai, a variety of teas, and assorted snacks. Because we had already eaten, we just grabbed chai and a tea. My husband loved his chai, and I loved my tea. The tea I chose was Chamomile Rose. A unique flavor. that was perfect for the cold weather day. There is a wonderful little park nearby with trails and great views! The atmosphere is a fun little spot, busy but not overall noisy. We also went on a weekend so this might change. Please note that there were a couple pups inside so it appears to be pet friendly. We are cool with that but be aware Service was fast and friendly. We'd definitely return and try other goodies!

    I'm always looking to try places I haven't been to yet so after I finished an early morning appt on DI I was looking for a new-to-me coffee shop. I walked into The Dime and was surprised by how big it was. We were about to get a big storm and folks were hunkering down so it wasn't very busy. I decided that I deserved a bagel sandwich to go with my coffee so I ordered a mocha and a pork roll, egg, and cheese on a bagel. I sat with my coffee and waited for my sandwich to go. I noticed that they have a beautiful pizza oven and you could watch the chef make the breakfast choices. I didn't even realize they did pizza as well. I love that the sandwich came out of that oven because it had a nice crunch on the outside of the bagel even after I got it back to my house. Now I can't wait to come back to try the rest of the menu.

    The Dime is 10/10 for breakfast + lunch and a perfect place to get work done or meet up with a friend. The staff is sooo kind and friendly. I typically go for coffee and to work- the breakfast burrito is insanely good. Their wood-fired pizza is the best on DI. We love the margarita pizza & the fig and prosciutto. Could not recommend this place enough! Indoor and outdoor seating also.

    I removed most of the burnt areas but I think that's what still made me nauseous.

    Went to Daniel Island with my daughter to pick up her glasses. Lunchtime and hunger hit us. She mentioned a Wood fired pizza place-Dime, so we decided to try it out. Placed our order at the register with very friendly server. People were in and out and we were served rather quickly after we decided on our drinks-many kinds available including FROSE', sandwiches & pizzas. Rather pricey! Gluten free options are available. Inside & Outside seating is available. It was a nice sunny day so patio seating was perfect. Good thing the patio was perfect because the food-not so much. The two that had Gluten free pizza had slightly undercooked pizzas. Mine however was definitely NOT undercooked, more like WOOD FIRED-burnt! Not sure if the oven needs to be cleaned ever so often but for your hands to be blackened after picking up your pizza is not a good sign. No pictures were taken which was unfortunate! Seeing is believing! From reading others reviews, looks as if coffee and pastries are your best bet. Handicap parking is available. Beautiful view of the waterfront park areas.

    Delicious!!! I'm still thinking about the pork roll and cheese bagel that was the perfect size and flavors. I loved the iced chai latte with oat milk that accompanied my breakfast so well. The price was pretty good and the restaurant was very cute. I'd definitely come back!!

    Food was largely bland. The place was cute though. Wish real ceramic mugs come back for coffee when people are dining in!

    The vibe inside is nice. It's what you would expect from a trendy, aesthetic coffee shop: hip,…read moreaesthetic, and retro. We ordered the chai latte, cold brew with caramel and oat milk, and a slice of earl grey carrot cake. We added sweet coconut cold foam to both drinks. I was astonished to pay $19 for those 2 drinks and another $8 for a very small slice of cake. Chai latte- Found it to be okay...nothing super special about it. Cold brew- It reminded me of this specific sesame grain drink with barely any coffee taste. Could not finish. Carrot cake- It was moist and the frosting was good. No part of it tasted like earl grey imo. I would skip on the sweet coconut cold foam as it barely provides sweetness to your drink, which in turn, is not worth the additional cost. Overall, it was a nice place to cool down and the atmosphere was alright. The interior is aesthetic and well designed. Coffee is not really special and cake is good. Wallet may shed a tear.

    I really enjoyed the pour over and they pulled a great shot of espresso. Cool ambience and I bought…read morea bag of beans to take home. They do a good job roasting too. My gripe is that they use Minor Figures oatmilk which, in my opinion, ruins espresso-based drinks. I always ask what oatmilk is used before I order. Do a blind taste test against oatly...trust me. I also liked the patio out back. I hope that area continues to blossom!!

    Cute place that has a good amount of seating in the back. We got:…read more Grasshopper toast/avocado toast- This was probably our favorite thing and would definitely recommend. It was unique with the different flavors and textures on top that came together really nicely. Almond frangipane scone- I'm not the biggest fan of dried fruit in baked goods, but otherwise thought this was tasty and would want to get a scone/biscuit without dried fruit next time. Would recommend. Cinnamon twist- Tasty! Not mind blowing, but we enjoyed and would get again. Best friend/chocolate chip cookie- Loved that it was crispy on the outside and chewy in the center part and that it used a darker chocolate. Jam sesh- This was not our favorite and we wouldn't get it again. We just didn't think all the flavors worked together. Short + Sweet- The coffee cake was maybe a little overbaked. My friend liked it more than I did, but I didn't feel like I needed to have it again. Overall it's a good place to go with a few people and try a bunch of things and hang out!

    It's been quite a while since I made the effort to return to The Harbinger Café on Upper King and…read moreit reminded me instantly why this spot is such a Charleston favorite. The vibe is still effortlessly cozy and creative--flowers, greenery, unusual Christmas gifts, and those little bakery touches that make you want to linger over your latte. This time around, everything felt even better than I remembered. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the service had that relaxed but attentive feel. I tried a couple of their seasonal items, and once again the flavors were bright, fresh, and a little unexpected in the best way. Their baked goods are still the standout--beautifully made, not overly sweet & just delicious. It's the kind of place where you can sit with a book, catch up with a friend, or just enjoy a slow morning with coffee and something delicious. Consistently great atmosphere, consistently great food, and a place that really gets better with every visit. Why did it take so long to return. I've now placed it in the top of my list for a great coffee spot.
