The honey lavender had a light floral touch while the mocha was rich and balanced. The shop itself has great seating inside, making it a perfect quiet spot to get some work done or catch up with a friend without the usual coffee shop bustle. They also have a variety of fresh, local bakery items, which pair perfectly with the drinks. Cozy, welcoming, and definitely worth a visit!

Some of the best valued desserts in the Mount Pleasant/hello Charleston area I've come to find…read moreafter being in town for a little. I grabbed an apple fritter, a cookie butter donut and an Oreo donut. The fried outside, along with the toppings of all of these were fantastic. The inside of the apple fritter was a little disappointing though, it's not the typical middle and more of a brioche donut. By far, my favorite one was the Oreo. The first bite was a flavor sensation along with the spongy, airy middle. The cookie butter had the same great brioche inside, they're almost a little undercooked, which is nice. The inside was very clean and the staff is young and very friendly. I couldn't get a pic of the food menu, but here is some examples: specialty donuts $3.50, apple, fritter $4, sticky bun $7 (it's massive ), cookie $3, pretzels $6-$7, ho-ho $6.

It's definitely like stepping back into the 60's and 70's with the guts and decor seeming to be original, old, vintage, etc. And of course the coffee was on point.

That I did not know and got a little frustrated when Google Maps kept telling me I arrived but yet all I could see what the motel lol.

The space was quite loud, with rock music playing, and the condiment station was messy and out of several basics like cream, stirrers, and sugar. A few tables were also unstable--I had to wedge a napkin under one just to use it. The person at the register was impatient when I misheard his question, which didn't make for a welcoming interaction. Overall, the coffee was alright, but not enough to make up for the rest of the experience.

There is a nice covered outdoor seating area, lots of interior seating complete with a cozy corner of leather chair seating. This location lends to longer sitting vs grab and go. The staff was friendly and patient while managing the long line of patrons (10 people) efficiently. Everything was bussed and cleaned in a timely manner. The bagel sandwich was delicious until I felt the crunch! My heart sank a bit, there was a chunk of egg shells. I love that Ruby's uses fresh ingredients but double checking the cracked egg bowl to ensure no egg shells is preferred. I think it's a fluke and will be fixed in the future. It won't stop us from returning for our favorite bagels in town.

We ordered an iced…read morehalf-sweet vanilla latte and an iced half-sweet Purple Haze latte, and after just two sips, we ended up tossing them. What threw me off first was the preparation. I watched them pull espresso shots, leave them sitting, then head to the back and suddenly my drinks appeared. When I asked about it, I was told the espresso was "pre-pulled and chilled." Meanwhile, the shots I originally saw pulled sat untouched at the machine for about two minutes (100% expired at that point). It was a confusing process and honestly, pre-pulled espresso just doesn't taste fresh. As for the drinks themselves, they were overly sweet. The vanilla latte had an odd banana flavor, and the Purple Haze tasted chemical (ironically). Overall, I won't be back for drinks. I've heard great things about their beans, so it's a shame I didn't get to experience a fresh espresso shot

I didn't ask about the beans or the roast, just ordered a large with room at the top and didn't take my first sip until I was settled in my car. Delicious. Simple as that. Inside, the space is perfectly cute with tables big enough to spread out a laptop and get some work done. There's also outdoor seating along a sunny, covered walkway that makes it a great hangout spot. I noticed the pastries only after I was already fixing my coffee, and they looked incredible. Big, golden, and clearly made with care. The barista told me they're baked fresh on the premises every day, which tracks because they looked amazing. Next time I'll definitely stay a while and try something beyond just drip coffee. But for now, let's just say Summit has officially earned a spot in my coffee rotation.

The space has a warm, welcoming vibe with a clean, modern design that makes it easy to relax or get a little work done. The coffee was excellent -- rich, smooth, and full of flavor without being bitter. You can tell they care about quality in every cup. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, which made the whole experience even better. This spot is definitely a gem for anyone who appreciates great coffee and a nice atmosphere.

All of a sudden Amy & grey tell me even if it's rinsed out it isn't clean so they can't use it. The wifi sucks even worse. This place is definitely on my s*** list.
