Always a delicious experience at Christophe's! The Halloween chocolates had my niece and nephew in overdrive. I enjoyed quiche while they enjoyed the chocolate croissants. They created a mess with the croissants, but the young lady working was so kind about the clean up. I got chocolate treats to go and can't wait to share them! I love the new set up and can't wait to get back! read more

You can't get a better chocolatier in the area. Truly a master of his craft, every single thing in this shop is delicious. I couldn't recommend it enough. Unique flavors, gorgeous designs, it's the perfect gift to yourself or someone else. Everyone is super friendly, easy parking, and they have cold brew! I think they even serve lunch now so that will be my next review read more

So much more convenient here in West Ashley. This location is where all the magic happens. Stopped here for some French press coffee and a chocolate/cream filled croissant.. Freshly made and so flakey. The chocolates are the same sold in his Charleston store. Delicious! read more

Just a wonderful shop with friendly service and yummy treats. Walking in is a delight! Picked up key lime and caramel pecan tarts. read more

Christophe's Macaron et Chocolat - Tarts - Bakeries Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Has the very best desserts in town. If they had real espresso/lattes, I would go every week. The French press coffee is not my style. I liked the coffee at their sister restaurant. The expansion gives more seating options which is great. Now, just need the good coffee and it would be the best place in town. read more

The pastries and service were great. However, the hot chocolate was genuinely hard to drink. It had no chocolate flavor and tasted like water. I've seen other reviews that complement the hot chocolate so I wonder if perhaps mine was made wrong? I went specifically because I was craving hot chocolate and I would have been much better off with Swiss Miss. That's incredibly disappointing for a place that advertises itself on its chocolate. read more

This is a small bakery down in the west Ashley area. Definitely authentic French but I was surprised they did not have Napoleons on the menu. You have to call ahead and it comes as a large portion for several people. Also the crème brûlée comes in actual ramekins so you can't get it to go. I would say in comparison to Croissant Gourmet in Winter Park FL the cream for the pastries isn't quite as sweet or rich. It's alright. read more

I ordered a huge box of chocolates for a party and they were awesome! We love the manager at the West Ashley location, she took extra care to get us the right mix of flavors and colors for a perfect presentation. Easily the best sweats in town! read more

Christophe is magnifique! The shop is full of so many delicious treats ~from lunch to pastries to gorgeous chocolates. We can't wait to go back again. He came out to speak with us, and it was wonderful to connect with him in his shop read more

Great choice for French desserts, croissants and the best CristoMontsier paired with a Stella Coffee. We enjoyed the ease of ordering and the welcoming front counter staff. Thankful for their 5th of July open for business hours-cute and quiet for the morning. read more

Absolutely love this place, have for the past 12 years. They have an amazing assortment of hand painted chocolates and truffles as well as the most awesome French baguette sandwiches (that do sell out)! I come here every special occasion and would come here more often if it was closer to Summerville. read more

Absolutely obsessed!! I drove into this lot to go to an adjacent sweets spot but when I parked it looked closed from the outside so I went to Christophe's instead and, boy I am glad I did!! They have BEAUTIFUL pastries and chocolates, delicious looking cookies, and lots of French macarons. I plan to get some Christmas presents sent from here this year. Will 100% be a return customer. read more

The chocolate bar is my favorite. I had a gift card from a friend to try it otherwise I don't know that I would have at $9 for a chocolate bar, but it was excellent. Super cute packaging too, would go great in a Charleston themed gift basket. The macaroons are okay, maybe just not my thing... they just don't wow me. The chocolates are fun to pick and choose from and the different flavors are interesting! read more

This is our favorite place to stop for delectable handmade chocolates and pastries! We feel like it's a local escape to a European bakery. We always enjoy a French press and a pastry at a bistro table outside, then we get a nice variety of chocolates for the week and head home. There's flavors for everyone! He makes beautiful creations out of chocolate that are really too beautiful to eat but would make a spectacular gift; right now near Halloween there are skulls, haunted houses, ghosts and pumpkins, as well as the regulars; beautiful turtles, high heels, alligators, the Eiffel Tower, and so on. If you like chocolate or pastries, this is the place to go! read more

Having been to their location downtown, I decided to check out this one in West Ashley. The selection of desserts is the same. As always, everything looked delicious. I had to knock off a couple stars though because I felt rushed by the sales clerk (Carly). She did not make me feel comfortable being there as her demeanor was curt. read more

I went to this adorable shop because in November I read food themed books so I take pictures of my books with places that correlate with the book. This shop is simply adorable! A lot of beautiful sweets. My daughter and I got beautiful desserts. I got a lemon pineapple thing and it was good but it could have used a bit more sweetness. We also got some macarons and they didn't taste right to me. The texture wasn't chewy like I'm used too (I've actually had French macarons in France before). The macarons were crispy/crunchy. I got my husband a pan au chocolate and he said it was decent, as well as the chocolate cake I got him. I tried that and it was okay. I am willing to try this place again because I have a major sweet tooth. Maybe I'll go for the actual chocolates next time. read more

Great spot to check if you just need a little gift for someone but cannot decide what lots of chocolate options. They also had sandwiches and fresh bread. read more

Everything is so cute and adorable! My husband and I had to try a bunch of things from pastries to chocolate and macrons. Loved everything except the chocolate croissant. That has to be eaten fresh and we got there at 4 pm so it was probably made hours before. The one chocolate I had to try was the blue cheese and it was as expected! So strange but good! I accidentally gave my 20 month old a bite of the blue cheese one. Well that immediately made her stop grabbing our chocolate truffles. I guess a win win for my husband and I to enjoy the rest of the chocolates in peace. The shop is very small so the only seating area is outside and there are only three tables with two seats. Not the best location to sit and have a bite to eat when it's cold. Everything else was good and we will have to be back to try everything else! read more

One of my frequent visits. Another level of enjoyment of sweets! Their hot chocolate tastes also nice as well as cakes and pastries. read more

The best sweets I have ever had. So amazing. We get these for our guests and just love them

I thought I walked into a coffee shop in Boston. Woman was so rude I felt right at home. Maybe get a smaller press so you do not get so pissed when one customer orders *one* coffee. Never been back, and I go by every day. read more

Christophe's Macaron et Chocolat in West Ashley is one of my favorite favorite places to go for chocolate in the Charleston area. They have a fantastic selection of different items that are works of art and taste even better than they look. I am happy every time I get a chance to come in her and am excited to eat my purchases. This store provides an excellent and impressive shopping experience and is well worth a visit. read more

What a wonderful little French bakery. I purchased an almond croissant. It was one of the best I've tasted. I also purchased these yummy treats. It's a small bakery, so easy to miss, but don't! read more

Christophe's Macaron et Chocolat - Pear and mixed berry tart - Bakeries Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

My husband and I found this place by accident. We walked in and saw so many tastes desserts to choose from. They had single chocolates, regular desserts, and prepackaged desserts. They also serve dessert drinks like hot chocolate or coffee. We got the apple pastry and the chocolate Raspberry mousse. Both are very large and we could get desserts for two nights eating them. All of the desserts are made in this location. They have a window set up so you can watch them make the desserts during the day. The guy hand PAINTS the truffles with an airbrush style. I could not believe it. They looked like they were in a covering, but no it was just the chocolate. They have no indoor seating and a few tables outside to sit at. However, it was chilly so we didn't sit outside. I am sure we will go back as a cute date when it is warmer. I am so glad we found this place. read more

Christophe's sets the standard for fine chocolates and macarons (this side of the pond). The original store is located downtown on Society Street. This store is much more convenient with ample parking. There is no seating inside, but there are a few small tables outside in case you want to enjoy your treats there. This location also has classes for you to learn alongside the masters on how to make pastries, desserts, and chocolates. Ask the employees any questions as the girl who helped me today was extremely knowledge and sweet. Must try any of the hand painted chocolates/macaroons/desserts and the almond croissant. The bleu cheese has an interesting taste. It's very good! Also the lavender caramel is amazing. I can't wait to try more! read more

Price is the issue. Very expensive, but then again if it's the best, it has to be pricy, right. If they were only bigger so my eyes could accept the prices. A great variety of sweets, chocolate, specialty items, cakes, macaroons, oh my. Hand painted chocolates, really? They even offer classes. They also have a place downtown, but how nice that we have one so close. Go in and just die a chocolate death. Frank G read more

Picked up some afternoon snacks here after reading a tourist article review. Staff was very helpful with suggestions. Sable was the pick for me and I can't wait to go back for more. For gourmet cookies, I thought pricing was very reasonable. I'm willing to splurge for something extra special. My boys loved the choc chip pecan and choc chip peanut butter. The items were so fresh the only thing that would have been any better would be if they were warm. read more

What a surprise to find a European style shop outside of downtown. The macaroons were wonderful and the truffles were magnificent.

First time here and we were an awe of all the beautiful chocolates and pastries! After the oohing and aahing we decided on some macaroons which we've never had and a flourless chocolate cake. The macaroons were delicious and light! The Earl Grey was my fav and the cake was good too! Will definitely be back! read more

This little guilty pleasure of mine qualifies for the treat myself Friday the staff is so friendly and knowledgeable and patient as I dive into decadent lushiousness. They have savory sandwiches and speciality pastries read more

Very good macaroons. Only wish is they had more non chocolate macaroon filling options since hubby is not a chocolate fan. Definitely coming again. read more

Lovely chocolates for enjoyment and gifts. The hand painted assortment makes a lovely gift for anyone.

My husband went all out and brought home assorted chocolates and macarons for our anniversary. This is quality chocolate for sure. You can tell each piece was made just perfect. The macarons are so delicious, and the chocolate superb. Personally, I think the price is right for the quality and artistry of these chocolates. read more

The best chocolate croissant ever! I love this place! Try have so many options of things to eat. and the classes that they offer how to make chocolate and other things looks amazing! I can't wait to go back! read more

By far the best patisserie in the US (and possibly France) that I have tried. I have yet to have something I did not like. The customer service is fast, personalized and friendly. Seasonal chocolates keep you coming back for more. The fresh mint chocolate is a flavor explosion and much better than the similar style Norman Love I had in Florida. The prices are on point for me as everything is hand made and fresh and there are lower priced items and higher prices depending on how much you want to spend. I try to get there once a week! read more

A little expensive, but how often do you get to eat hand painted chocolates, macarons, eclairs, and other yummy pasteries made by a Frenchman? The Ashley River location is nestled in a strip mall. We discovered another location in downtown Charleston on Society Street. Everything was delicious! read more

Finally made the time to pop in and so glad I did. I got 4 chocolates, 2 macaroons, and a quiche so I could sample a variety. So far all are wonderful and so happy they opened near me. I will definitely be back! read more
