Spent a lovely Sunday morning here! Despite the long line,…read morethe staff moved quickly and with a positive attitude to take orders and prepare coffees and food. The pastry case was full and beautiful with savory and sweet options. There's a fair amount of indoor seating and a few outdoor tables. I ordered a hazelnut latte which was bold and delicious. Despite saying I was dining in, it was served in a to go cup - I do wish I received it in a cup/mug. I also tried the almond croissant which was flaky and not overly sweet. The croque monsieur was indulgent and cheesy - although, I wish it was slightly hotter when served. The portion of everything matched the price.

The shop is super cute inside. And it smelled absolutely delicious. I love the way that they had everything laid out for you to see. And the ladies that worked there were very sweet and answered any questions that we had. I like that when you start to tell them what you want they have a cake plate that they put your items on and then they'll box it up at the end. It just had a really special feel to the service of how they treat you there. Now let's get into the sweet treats. I bought a chocolate chip cookie, a oatmeal raisin cookie and a ginger molasses cookie. They were all delicious, but that oatmeal raisin cookie was amazing. I also got too many cupcakes. I did the vanilla blueberry and the honey. Both were very good. And I got a pecan brownie. I loved the pecan brownie! My only problem with the brownie is that it's so small. I would love for them to make them bigger for the price, but absolutely delicious. I love that none of the sweets tasted too sweet. They were perfectly balanced. I recommend checking out the spot. It will definitely satisfy your sweet tooth.

I wasn't aware they were James Beard nominated, but it makes sense because the line grew quickly! Despite the line, there were staff passing out samples and menus to help us decide. All staff were extremely kind and helpful! There were plenty of small tables outside to enjoy your order if it's not busy. We ordered the strawberry almond croissant, a strawberry cake that I'm still thinking about, pain au chocolat, and the mushroom focaccia. My husband said they won the best cup of coffee on the trip as well!

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.

We gave Kaminsky's Dessert Cafe a second try, but unfortunately they couldn't redeem themselves. On…read moreboth visits, service was lacking. We waited about 5 to 10 minutes to be acknowledged while two employees stood nearby. The two layer chocolate caramel pecan cake, which our waitress initially could not find, was dry and tasted stale. I would not order it again. The Tollhouse pie was a bit better, but the presentation and the whipped cream were the standouts, and the whipped cream wasn't even homemade! That's the best thing I could say about our experience. The food, pricing, service, and ambiance all fell below average. When you are located downtown with so many great dessert options around, you really need to step up your game. We will not be returning.

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 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!

They have ample parking outside, cool vibe decor inside with lots of wall art. The staff were very helpful considering it was our first time & I didn't realize it was also a Vegan cafe along with being Gluten Free. I was kinda lost with the rather large menu. We settled on a coffee with Oat milk & a Tofu based spicy sandwich with avocado. It was good and I'm glad I gave this style of food a try. However it's not for me.

If you have an allergy, everything is marked. They do use coconut for their cookies, but even my BF who doesn't like coconut enjoys their treats and loves their smoothies.

The staff are very friendly and helpful at explaining everything but the menu alone does a fantastic job of spelling everything out. It has a nice, warm feel when you enter the premise. It's a good place to meet us with a friend or enjoy a bite and drink on your own!

We were quoted about 25 minutes for the wait. The hostess took my phone number down and said she would text me to let me know when our table was ready. Since this location is in downtown Charleston, it was easy to wander around outside and keep ourselves entertained until I got the text that our table was about to be ready and we had 10 minutes to check in. Once I checked in, we were seated immediately and told to scan the QR code at the table to see the menu. A few minutes later, our server came by and asked if we wanted coffee or other drinks. After she came back with drinks, she took our order. I got the cornmeal pancakes. They are made of cornmeal so they had a different taste than what I was used to with pancakes. It wasn't a bad taste. They tasted like a combo of sweet, but also savory. They also felt very light so I didn't feel overstuffed after eating them. Because of how busy they are, they got us in and out in less than 40 minutes. There are signs at the table to not stay longer than 90 minutes, but this was no problem here. Just something to keep in mind to not hang around if you're done with your meal and you see a giant wait outside. As we were leaving, other people were being quoted about a 45+ minute wait. Since it's in downtown Charleston, there is no dedicated parking lot. However, there is street parking available nearby. As someone that cannot parallel park, I went the safe route and parked in a parking garage that was close by. I paid $4 for that. Overall, great breakfast place and quick service!
