Another great experience! I came in for a muddy mocha and got it without much wait. The latte art and flavor is still top notch here. Thank you! read more

Stopped by over the weekend - thankfully, it's a coffee shop that doesn't close at noon! Some of us like afternoon & even evening caffeine haha The staff was friendly, place was cute, decorated with art available for purchase, service was quick. My iced white mocha was tasty - a tiny bit too sweet, but still good. There is also plenty of parking, which is a always a bonus! read more

I love when I have a meeting for work and the person picks a local spot to meet. This was my first time here, and from the abundance of parking (the shop is in a Harris Teeter parking lot), the nice crew, and the fact they also offer more local drinks besides their coffee are all wins in my book. I had a One Love Kombucha that is brewed in CHS. Blueberry basil was my pick and I finished the whole bottle. Yummy! The seating area inside is small and the place was packed. It was cool outside but sunny, so we were able to meet and enjoy their outdoor seating area. Definitely a great spot for a meeting if you can get a table. I will definitely continue to recommend this local shop. read more

Muddy Water has become one of my go to coffee shops in town. The staff is always kind and the coffee is consistently good. Great place to work or hang out and I love that they're open later than a lot of coffee places around here. read more

A cute little local coffee shop with every coffee you could want. Our two lattes were $11 before tip. A busy place and they kept up.

Cute and cozy vibes for sure! The coffee was good, nothing outstanding but good. Great place to work, with outlets and WiFi. The server was OK, could have been nicer. read more

Very cute little coffee shop with cool local goods for sale. I got matcha and it was alright. I do wish they had more food options though. Good spot if you need to grab something quickly. read more

Lovely start to the day. Huge traffic delays and me having a dog with me had me stop here purely due to bridge being closed. Lovely outdoor area with plenty of shade. I had a friend meet me and we had iced coffee. Delicious and fast service. I also had one of the pop tarts in the pastry section. Delicious! A great visit and I hope to make it back soon. read more

Excellent coffee shop with a great bohemian vibe and nice people :). Also good location, close to where I live too!

The coffee here is expertly made. I had a flat white and it was perfectly balanced-smooth, creamy, and not bitter at all. It's clear they take their craft seriously! read more

Still my favorite James Island coffee shop. I recently moved back to Charleston and decided to try a couple other local coffee shops, but Muddy Waters still wins for me. Staff are always kind, attentive and efficient, the vanilla cinnamon latte is delicious, pastries on point and they have so many lovely little nooks to sit inside and outside. My baby enjoyed the glider in the courtyard area outside. Thanks as always for a great Friday morning treat! read more

Looove Muddy Waters! Such a great spot to meet a friend for a coffee, with seating inside and out on the covered patio. Highly recommend the Vanilla Cinnamon Latte or the Honey Lavender Latte! I've also tried some of the baked goods and everything is always fresh and yummy! Super fast service for specialty coffee drinks, and always a friendly environment. I also love the selection of local artists, etc. throughout. Can't go wrong here! read more

Came into town to visit family members found this place thanks to random comment on TikTok. Order: (M) Iced Matcha Latte (M) Hot Chai Latte Plus tip Total - $13.14 My mom is a late bloomer die hard Starbucks lover. Only orders chai from Starbucks. She loved her drink on the first sip and kept complimenting on how smooth and creamy the drink was. My mom is extremely picky with her food/drinks so the fact she loved her drink is a big deal. My matcha was great also. The front desk worker (sorry don't remember names well) fully explained each drink and gave recommendations. The place is a small cozy atmosphere. Would recommend drinking inside if there is room. If I were to live here in SC this would be my go to place to get my matcha fix. 10 out of 10 Drinks 10 out of 10 Service 10 out of 10 Atmosphere read more

A cute little neighborood coffee shop on James Island! From the couple times I've been, it's been a chill atmosphere, delicious coffee, and friendly service. I'm looking forward to trying their baked goods! read more

Great coffee shop within a shopping center next to a Harris Teeter grocery. Stopped here on the way out of town. Smelled amazing walking in and it had a nice mellow vibe. Love the local art and craft items for same. I got a white chocolate mocha and it was delicious. There's a small indoor seating area. read more

Such a cute little coffee shop. The cashier was friendly and answered our questions. The muddy mocha was good and they even have a small patio to sit on with dogs. I would recommend. read more

The lavender honey latte was the best I've had. Not over-powering, smooth and delicious. Got my husband a black coffee (if you're into that kind of thing, haha) and he said it was great as well. Tried a little protein bar (pb & choc) they had by the register and enjoyed it. Not overly sweet. Inside is tight seating with lots of people in and out. Outside seating available for nice days. read more

Got a regular lavender honey latte .it was pretty good . She was very fast and friendly. Love the wifi area and it was very comfortable. read more

Muddy Waters Coffee Bar - We absolutely love these coffees!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

We came here for some caffeine after a reggae concert/campout. It was so easy to get to and there was no line at 8:30am on a sunday. Quick, kind, competent baristas served hs. Both of our iced lattes were great. They had a ton of awesome beans for sale with interesting names and delicious flavor profiles. Seems like they are running low on supplies (we drank iced coffee out of to go cups for a hot coffee). But that really didn't ruin the experience at all. Will be going back next time I'm in the area. read more

Muddy Waters Coffee Bar - Caffeine !! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

It's a lovely coffee shop with many fond memories! Great customer service and a variety of treats!

We popped into this little coffee shop in the same strip mall with a Harris Teeter that has a Starbucks in it. Normally I'd be concerned about a local shop surviving, but they make an excellent breve. It is reasonably clean inside with space for 20 customers including a big community table. Soothing music and a friendly staff made this a great coffee experience. We sat for a while and a steady stream of customers came through. They use beans from a North Carolina roaster. I would have liked to see them supporting a local roaster. read more

Solid coffee spot! Small and concise menu and small space with one guy behind the counter. In a great location if you're running errands in that shopping complex to grab some coffee. My favorite thing about this shop is they sell local vendors in the front of their store - candles, jewelry, etc. I love their promotion of local biz! read more

Excellent wonderful coffee drinks and snacks. Quick unhurried service. Warm environment read more

I know that this place is well loved, but the drinks I've tried here have let me down a little. I tried a few different drinks, but each time the espresso tasted a little burnt or off in some way. The drinks taste similar to what I can make myself at home. The space itself is adorable and the baristas are so kind. Parking is plentiful and it is in an awesome location. I will continue to try to love this place, but for now, it isn't my cup of tea. read more

Located in a strip shopping mall, there's tons of parking. This is a locals hangout, definitely. Not a ton of seating and it's pretty small inside, so it definitely gave me a cramped feeling. It's not roomy enough for me to want to hang out too long. People are all close by and you'll definitely be listening to the conversations of others. I'm guessing, but seating maybe for say 20 or so, but yeah, it would be cramped if all seats are filled. I tried the Muddy Mocha, sized medium, for $4.45 and it was quite sizable, had cool artwork at its top, but most importantly, tasted quite good. It wasn't too sweet and I always appreciate that. I'd get it again. My wife got a lavender honey latte that I also tried and I really liked that too, maybe even more than the Muddy Mocha I had. I love mochas though, so yeah. They do have free WiFi, but you have to ask for the password and the girl at the counter hits a button on this router thingy and that kicks out a number. She writes the number down for you and then you input the number into their network as the password. Every user gets a different number. Strange to me...never seen that before. It did work however. Use all lower case letters btw. Prices are totally reasonable in my opinion. Check out the photo I posted of their menu board for additional specificity. You're welcome bizzle. read more

No wifi. Very few tables inside for reading or working. Lots of takeout ruins the coffee shop vibe. Sitting next to a parking lot is not the ambience I'm looking for. Please expand your indoor tables and chairs. Someone from Seattle should understand the multi-purpose uses of a coffee bar. Thanks. read more

Muddy Waters is my FAVORITE coffee bar in the Charleston area. Every trip I take down to the Charleston area I make sure to stop at Muddy Waters multiple times during my vacation. They make the best cinnamon vanilla latte and it tastes great both hot and iced. I always make sure to bring home a bag (or two or three) of the counter culture beans they use at the shop. My favorite flavor is the Fast Forward beans. They are so delicious! The customer service is ALWAYS spot on every time I go. They are super friendly and make each coffee drink with a smile and some lovely chit chat. Thank you Muddy Waters for always being there for me when I visit Charleston. I wish you had a store up here in Jersey! You are such a wonderful highlight to my South Carolina trips! read more

Muddy Waters is a great little coffee shop. The service is quick and friendly, and the coffee has really good flavor. We have tried hot lattes and coffees, cold brews, and cold coffee drinks. All have been good. I highly recommend Muddy Waters. 9/10 rating for me. read more

So good and reasonably priced! The iced sugar free vanilla latte with oat-milk was amazing!

Eh. Their muffins aren't made fresh in the morning (it was colder than room temperature, so likely previously frozen or at the very least refrigerated). The coffee was good but the pastries are an important part of the coffee shop experience for me. read more

Coffee was good, service was fairly quick. Very small coffee shop so we got it to go as there was no seating but I would recommend for a quick to go coffee. read more

Great little coffee shop! Conveniently located outside of CVS/Harris Teeter - so easy to run and grab a coffee while running errands! Large parking lot makes parking easy, but it's a busy lot so be careful! Super friendly and consistent staff that remember my order, always making me feel welcome and special! One of the best lattes in all of Charleston - the caramel latte is my personal fav! read more

Was sadly disappointed in the overall taste of this coffee. I asked for a white chocolate peppermint mocha and I did not taste any peppermint. The beans they used were also not too my liking, but they did well on steaming the milk and pulling the overall shot so that it was not bitter or sour. read more

I was recently in the Charleston area and tried Muddy Waters. It was an awesome coffee shop. I am a total coffee snob and I must say there coffee was amazing. I tried it on one of the first days of my vacation and I am so glad I did. I went back every day. I can't wait to return to the Charleston area just to have another latte at Muddy Waters. read more

Lavender / Honey Latte. I came in knowing that I needed caffeine, but I had no idea that I needed this magical beverage until it was passing by my lips and heading down to my belly. Oh my. I wish that I lived closer, 'cause I love those Muddy Waters. I was working in the area and knew from friends that this was the local place to go. I walked in and there was a line to the door, but no joke, I was at the register and served in about five minutes flat. I didn't order any food, but those chocolate muffin's looked amazing. I can't wait for the next time that I get to volunteer to work near this coffee bar. It might even be worth the 30 minute drive to go out of my way for a great cup of coffee. read more
