Ah... coffee, behind sugar the most acceptable and almost required drug in America. Who can deny the satisfaction of opening the doors to any coffee shop and getting slapped in the face with the most brilliant, bold and savory smells that only fresh brewed coffee can produce? Not only that but the required caffeine that our blood streams need to jolt our overly taxed or perhaps underserved waking up mechanism. I work out in the AM so coffee for me is more about opulence and indulgence than a necessity but I digress. Anyways after living abroad and sampling many places in town, I believe I have found the best coffee shop in Summerville! Coastal Coffee Roasters is in an easy to access and safe area in a quaint building. After the initial blast of beans slammed my nose, I took awhile to check out the store. First the board screamed out at me with all the international (lets be honest almost all American coffee is international unless it's from Hawaii) flavors. I really wanted to sample a lot of flavors, but alas I was in somewhat of a rush. Next, I love the fact they grind their own beans, when I lived in Texas my favorite spot smoked then ground their beans; people are getting crazy y'all! While I hate trendy coffee shops, you know the ones with the pretentious people writing the next great American novel in a sterile environment? Coastal Coffee Roasters doesn't give that vibe at all, more of a laid back spot where you'll recognize people that come often and have a smile on their face; well after they've had some coffee. The walls have character that isn't forced but as if an owner on a whim puts a keepsake up on the wall. The furniture is a hodgepodge of whatever is found at a thrift store is considered seating, along with a long picnic table. This is a snapshot of lowcountry living, laid back, simple yet comforting. I looked over a menu and I'll be darned if I didn't love what they had to nibble on. It all looked devine but if I may suggest two items that I've enjoyed in other areas of the country - kloche's and homemade poptarts. There, my request is done! Back to their menu from what I saw is everyone really enjoyed the food and the pastries looked amazing. I know, this place warrants an appetite and repeat visits. I wrote this huge review for one coffee, I suggested myself! Apparently I think highly of this little insignificant review. But darnit my coffee was as JJ said "Dynomite!" I got a large latte with two shots of Amaretto, shot of honey and a shot of vanilla. My coffee at home I generally have my own creamer I doctor up for positive affects on the body and it includes non-sweet creamer, touch of cayenne, turmeric, cinnamon and honey. Anyways my latte was delicious and not too sweet. I even let my mom try it who literally hates everything she doesn't create and she loved it. To wrap this up, Coastal Coffee Roasters is the real deal and the best coffee you can get in town. The people are nice and will take the time to walk you through the menu and the store itself has the aww shucks sit down and stay a while vibe. If you like coffee and haven't stopped by, you're really missing out.

This review is mostly for me to come back to once I try more. I've been here on three separate locations and still haven't tried any of their food. That is completely my bad. Will judge that soon. One of the days I visited was an understaffed, Saturday morning with a shortage of ingredients. We were unable to try any seasonal beverages we wanted because of this. I will say, I have thoroughly enjoyed a regular coffee (Carolina Gold?) and dirty chai tea. The seating area could use a bit of an update and proper organization/storage of magazines, games, and the like. Just to make it a bit more tidy. The staff is very patient, hardworking, and communicative which increases my likelihood of return. I also need to actually try the delicious looking cinnamon roll. Why I didn't get it while there was a huge error on my part. When I do, I'll update my review.

Gyro special
Wanda G.

Ordered food to go for lunch. Lunch gyro special was delicious. I got side of Cole slaw ...nice flavor with a mixture of cabbage, carrots and kale. Gyro was fresh and loved the fresh tzatziki sauce. The pickles were unusual start sweet then have a little bit of a bite at the end. When I arrived had to wait a few minutes but I enjoyed watching the people. Lots of tables and many were working on lap tops. Also had to pick up a cinnamon roll for tomorrow's breakfast.

Local market

We started coming here because my sons SLP is in the building and we fell in love with this local gem! Service is always great even when busy which it always is and we're there at lunchtime. The baked goods are heavenly. We've had cruffins, cookies, and scones! We also have ordered off the lunch menu and the sandwiches are huge and delicious! They also have a cute front outdoor seating area and large inside seating. The coffee is also always delicious with a seasonal feature. They are always busy with people picking up beans but I've always gotten a latte! It's become a greatly weekly treat and I love supporting the local business!

Coffee beans anyone?  I love the choices!  (Well ok, I haven't tried them ALL. )

Another visit, another 5 star. I love this place for its relaxed neighborhood vibe, for its wide and excellent drink offerings and bean coffee choices, and its in-house bakery. Perfect! Once you figure out what to order, and if your eating in, you'll grab a seat. Choices range from tables for 2, or 4, or many (a long table seating large parties or friends that maybe haven't met yet). A server brings your order over with a smile. Yup, the coffee and fresh baked goods are excellent. But what I really like is that I get a mood lift from Coastal Roasters, I always feel better after I've been. BTW, Coastal Roasters is fully accessible to someone in a wheelchair. Go!

I'm still trying to find good coffee shops in Summerville and came across this one. I love that they roast their own beans and make their own syrups. It is a very crowd and family friendly place and the service was fast and friendly. I ordered a blueberry scone and it was delicious. It was thick, not dry and not too sweet. For coffee I got a lavender honey latte. I would've liked it a little sweeter but it was still very good and balanced. Very cute shop that I will be back to!

Kids have games and crayons to keep them occupied and kid friendly treats like chocolate chip cookies and hot chocolate.

Not only is the coffee quality amazing, the owner is very knowledgable and enthusiastic about sharing that knowledge. I came in because I got 2 batches of terrible burnt flavorless coffee from a very famous coffee brand. It was the last straw in long string of unsatisfactory coffee experiences. I vowed never to buy pre-ground supermarket coffee again. I came in wanting to try a light roast and love my way up. I now have coffee grinder and grind my espresso every morning. My favorite beans are the Sexy Seven and the Guatemala City. Start here if you want to up your coffee game. Side note the owner gave my kids a tour of the roasting room and explained the process to them, they loved it and thought I planned a field trip!

Located right in downtown Summerville. We came here to meet some friends for coffee for our first time. I got the Cuban cortado, it was delicious! We snagged a table outdoor and it was a nice ambiance. They have an assortment of different coffees from different countries and the quality was good. We also got a strawberry muffin and that was delicious. They brought our order out too us which was very nice. Definitely will continue to come here!

Was here yesterday for the first time after moving to West Ashley (Charleston) from Greenville. Really, really nice espresso place. Had a great iced mocha with an extra shot as it was getting hot out and I'd already had plenty of espresso. Wow. Really good as well the strawberry scone. (They were out of Blueberry which is my favorite) The scone was really, really good. As was the Lox on everything bagel I got to go. Not as great as some I've had in Manhattan or the city or some straight up Jewish deli's but better than almost any coffee shop bagel I've had. (Shout out to Jersey Bagel Brothers in Greenville - awesome bagels and Lox bagels sandwich's) There are a lot of tables here. Almost all had two or more people. Some working on laptops or iPads. Some just talking and having a nice morning. But the overall sound level was very decently quiet for all of the people there. Also there were more actual people working behind the counter than a lot of shops these days, and who were friendly and efficient and knew what they were doing so ordering went fast and smoothly. There were some Wall Street Journals and local magazines and papers which was nice. I bought 3/4 pounds of whole bean Espresso blend to take home for my DeLonghi. Really liked this place and will be back!

We stopped in for some coffee after a race packet pick up. Upon entering we noticed several tables with adequate seating, a small area with different items for sale, and friendly staff. The coffee was good and the service was great. Can't ask for more.

I've loved coming here since my first visit. The coffee and food here are all amazing and made with care. My wife has a special place in her heart for the bagels and I can't get enough of their brews. The dining area has an awesome array of other coffee products and local goods to purchase if you'd like all while listening to amazing music in a friendly atmosphere. Everyone is always so happy to see you and are happy to serve you when you arrive. Please come here and enjoy a coffee sometime!

Lattes are incredible and environment is peaceful! All farm to table

My husband and I came here on the first night we moved to SC from out of state. I ordered the smoked wings w/signature dry rub and a side salad. My husband got the Philly cheesesteak and was very excited about the house-made cheese-whiz. The wings were excellent!! That dry rub is a chef's kiss. And that delicious side salad was a HUGE portion size! We already can't wait to come back here again! :)

I've always enjoyed Montreux in Summerville and used to consider their shrimp and grits some of the…read morebest around. Unfortunately, something has clearly changed with that dish. The shrimp had a very strong, fishy smell that was honestly off-putting, and the flavor matched. It almost seemed like the addition of wine was an attempt to mask the issue rather than enhance the dish. The grits were also disappointing--lumpy and lacking the smooth, creamy texture you'd expect. That said, not everything missed the mark. My coworkers ordered the chicken salad, chicken wrap with sweet potato fries , blackened chicken pasta, and bruschetta, and all of those dishes were absolutely delicious and well prepared. They definitely helped redeem the overall experience and show the kitchen is still capable of putting out great food. Adri was our server, and she was an absolute delight--a total gem. She never missed a beat and was completely on top of everything. I also appreciated the convenience of the location. I parked across the street in the garage, which was well lit, safe, and very close. There's plenty to see and do in the surrounding area, which adds to the appeal. I'm hoping this was just an off day, because Montreux has been a favorite in the past. I'd love to see the shrimp and grits return to the quality they were once known for.

The drinks are priced on the higher end, but the relaxed, comfortable atmosphere makes it feel approachable. We also love that they offer seasonal and holiday cocktails, which is right up our alley. We brought Luna along and sat on the patio, which was a nice option. I would love to see heaters added outside to make the patio more comfortable on cooler nights. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive throughout our visit. I ordered the Fireside Chat (served warm), made with Four Roses Bourbon, Croft Tawny Port, apple cider, orange juice, grenadine, turbinado sugar, allspice, and clove ($15). I really enjoyed the flavor profile--warm, well-balanced, and perfect for the season. That said, I was a little disappointed that my second drink wasn't garnished nearly as nicely as the first, especially given the price. Flavor-wise, though, both were very good. My husband started with the Gingersnap, which includes Monkey Shoulder blended Scotch whisky, Disaronno almond liqueur, butterscotch liqueur, spiced ginger syrup, heavy cream, Angostura bitters, cookie rim, and nutmeg ($16). He enjoyed it but felt it was definitely a one-drink cocktail due to how sweet, creamy, and heavy it was. He also ordered the Smoked Maple-Bacon Old Fashioned with bacon fat-washed bourbon, spiced maple syrup, tobacco bitters, and a salted brown sugar rim ($16). This one was a miss for him--too sweet, with the maple and smoke overpowering the drink, and not much bacon flavor coming through. That said, the presentation was excellent; watching the smoke being lit was a highlight, and I even grabbed a video of it. Our total came to about $71 before tip, and we didn't order any food, so it's definitely on the pricier side. Still, for the ambiance, creative cocktails, and overall experience, I think it's worth it--especially for a relaxed night out with a more elevated feel.

However, during our most recent visit, I was informed that minors must be accompanied by an adult at all times in the arcade. While I understand businesses having supervision policies, the enforcement and explanation caught me off guard because this had never previously been addressed during earlier visits. As a single mother of two boys with different personalities and interests, it can be difficult to physically stand beside both children at every moment while also handling things like food, restrooms, or other normal parenting responsibilities. My children have never caused disruptions or behavioral issues during our visits. What made the experience frustrating was the lack of clarity surrounding the policy. I had to specifically search online afterward just to locate a single line mentioning the rule, and there does not appear to be much explanation regarding how the policy works in practical situations for families. I believe clearer communication and more consistent enforcement would help avoid confusion for parents visiting with children.
