I immediately loved the place...as the place was strikingly decked out in PInk...unashamedly Hot Pink at that! I noticed some GORGEOUS cake creations, as well as some cute cupcakes. I chose to try 2 cupcakes...in Red Velvet and Strawberry. Well, I can honestly say that both were DEE-Lish!! Also tried this drink they carried called VOSS in Raspberry Rose Sparkling Water. Loved that as well. Truly the only downside was that they didn't have proper plates for folks choosing to dine in...though the place was quite spacious, with plenty of tables and chairs. I guess it's a post-Covid thing? I was hoping to get good pictures of the cupcakes on a plate (as the box presentation didn't do much), but Oh Well. Still, I can't dock any stars for this gorgeous place, and its lovely creations. Kudos to Alexis!!

Everything was beautifully decorated and the space is absolutely perfect for a girly girl party. I just needed the Barbie theme song to start playing! I tried the chocolate chip cookie with buttercream, but unfortunately it was a little too sweet for me. I also felt the price was a bit on the high side for the size of the cookie. The experience was cute and fun, but for me, it was just ok. Definitely worth checking out if you're all about the pink and Barbie aesthetic and looking for a pretty spot for a celebration!

The food here is good, and unfortunately, that is the only reason I can give this place two stars…read more If you order online and simply pick up your food, you may have a better experience. However, the customer service during our visit was extremely disappointing. We asked for help with the menu because we were unsure which items were vegan. Instead of helping us, the staff member responded dismissively and did not offer any useful explanation or recommendations. I ordered a hot matcha latte, which took at least twenty minutes to prepare. We also politely asked whether they had a packet of sugar and were rudely told that they were "not a coffee shop" and that we could go to the neighboring business if we wanted sugar. The response was unnecessarily rude and completely unprofessional. The music also did not create the calm, relaxing atmosphere that you would normally expect from a bakery, so it was not a particularly pleasant place to sit. Considering the service we received, I would recommend visiting one of the neighboring businesses instead. I would not return and cannot recommend this place to others.

I was kind of surprised how the Harlow on James Island has stayed under the radar…read more This neighborhood restaurant and bar is loaded with charm and perhaps some of the friendliest staff around. They are a burger/oyster bar with a diverse menu that has unique offerings. As far as I know this is the only true oyster bars on the Island. There are plenty of restaurants that serve raw oysters but no with a wide-ranging selection of oysters from various locales. I don't care for raw oysters myself, but I saw a lot being served. We started with cocktails with my wife ordering the "Don't Call It a Skinny" with Tequila, Guava, Lime, Agave, and Lime Salt. They say try it spicy if you are feeling feisty and she was. The drink was light with a wonderful back heat on the end. I enjoyed the Smoked Praline Sour with rye, hazelnut, Montenegro, praline, citrus and bitters with a nice smoke for added flavor. It tasted just like a praline, and I had a tough time getting it back after my wife had a try, We ordered some fried oysters Buffalo style with a ranch sauce for dipping. Being an oyster bar they were very fresh and full of flavor. Our favorite starter was the popular Jam Jar with ricotta cheese and seasonal jam with toasty bread. The jam was tomato and our server gave us a great pro-tip. Empty the bowl it comes in and dump the contents of the jar then swirl the two together then spoon it up on the bread. It was absolutely delicious and can't be missed! We decided to get a couple of burgers which are a mixture of brisket, chuck and short rib. I got the Harlow burger which has American Cheese, Comeback Sauce, Pickles, and Shredded Lettuce. I was pleased that instead of a smash burger which everyone seems to do these days, it was a thick juicy burger. It was so juicy I needed to wipe my hands and mouth after each bite. The comeback sauce was unique and definitely added to the spectacular flavor I was experiencing. Poe's used to be my thick burger go to and they have been dethroned! My wife chose the Southern Roots with Bacon, Pimento, Shredded Lettuce, and Pickled Green Tomatoes. It was obvious that the pimento cheese was homemade and packed with cheesy goodness. The fries were perfect burger fries being neither steak nor shoestring but just perfectly crispy and light, similar but better than McDonalds in every way. Zach, the general manager came over to chat for a bit and offer us a complimentary cocktail to try. The Section 112 was Bourbon, tarragon, preach, bitters, and a streusel foam. They purposely leave out a straw so that you taste that foam with each sip. I couldn't have had a better time. Friendly service that was top notch. Drinks that were creative as well as fulfilling and food that will linger in my collective memories for a long time. You need to make a reservation as they are so popular that walk ins may have a tough time.
