My husband and I stopped at Periwinkle Kitchen for dinner on a Saturday. This is located off of Betsy Kerrigan Pkwy. There is plenty of parking. The outside of the restaurant is deceiving because it looks simple. The inside is beautiful, modern, spacious and well maintained. They offer wine and have a coffee bar. You can dine in or carry out. They offer breakfast daily from 8-3 and dinner from 3-9pm. The service was excellent. I had the grilled chicken tenders with sweet potato fries. The chicken was grilled and moist and tender and well seasoned. The sweet potato fries were cut in large wedges. They were crispy and topped with sea salt. The daily specials are listed and they offer a varied menu that will suit any discerning palate. I really enjoyed my meal and will be back again and recommend this place to friends and family. Highly recommend.

My wife and I visited Periwinkle Kitchen for the first time. It doesn't look like much from the outside of the building but when you enter the building, your opinion changes. The interior is clean, well decorated and very inviting. The seating would be sufficient for small groups, tables seating up to six. The staff was friendly and engaging. We were checked on several times during our meal and our drinks refilled. My wife and I had the Chicken bites and fries. Both potato and sweet potato fries. The food came out quickly and was cooked perfectly. The food was flavorful and fresh! We will definitely be back again to try some other items on the menu. I would recommend that you give Periwinkle Kitchen ao8 try, you will be pleasantly surprised!

Cutest little cafe! I'm visiting from out of town and wow was this place an amazing find! The staff was so friendly, the food was delicious, and the prices were so reasonable! I would definitely stop by again!

Avocado toast with overeasy egg and citrus cilantro slaw.
Sohailah S.

Delicious food, quick service, lovely atmosphere, well priced. We loved it. I got the avocado toast with an egg and the citrus cilantro slaw. My husband got the chicken and pimiento cheese biscuit with grits. Man oh man. Cleaned our plates in a hot second. Would come very often if we lived here. (Probably better for our waistlines that we don't). Thanks for the great food and quick service.

Small and different ! Waitress very personable ! Cooks are great ! Dinner was good ! Two chicken sandwiches ! She crab soup! Chicken need salt very expensive ! This place is a treat! Straight forward menu ! It was light at dinner! Service great ! Chicken sandwich was good ! Local flavor! Togo items in freezer ! Desserts too expensive!

Great ma and pa shop! Breakfast was so delicious! For the cheesy grits which were phenomenal! Sat inside but the outside seating was also cute!

Iced lavender latte

I went to Periwinkle kitchen for a late lunch while on vacation. When I arrived the cafe was surprisingly empty, even for an off time. There is ample seating in the dining area. They don't have the most comfortable tables and chairs, but the seating was all very clean. Service was excellent and our waitress was friendly and helpful. The food was alright, but nothing to write home about. The sandwiches were warm and fresh, but fell apart easily, especially my biscuit sandwich. The coffee was good though. I got a lavender latte and cold brew which were both quite tasty. Overall, Periwinkle kitchen isn't my first choice for cafe food, but a good option if you're looking for a quick option in the area.

Honey Butter-fried chicken and pimento cheese-biscuit.
Jack F.

One of the most magical culinary experiences of my life was trying their honey butter-fried chicken-biscuit sandwich with pimento cheese on top. Every single bite was a roller coaster of flavor, and I left the restaurant happy and full. Truly off the beaten path, but somewhere I will be 100% returning to next time I'm in the Kiawah Island area. My brother got the burrito with chorizo on it, and he says it's one of the best he's ever had in his life. Definitely a hole in the wall type feel on the exterior, but the inside of the restaurant is very clean and up-to-date, with very Dedicated service.

Fried chicken sandwich
Nuke N.

Great lunch spot. Best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. Prime rib sandwich is bang'n. This place is a hidden gem.service was great. Fries are good. Love the salt. Sweet tea was good as well.

The Prime Rib dip and sweet potato fries - going back for this again!!
Dawn L.

We had a wonderful experience at Periwinkle Kitchen & Cafe on Johns Island. Dining outside made it even more enjoyable, and the food did not disappoint. The Smash burger was fantastic--juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Sweet potato fries were some of the best I've had. My husband got the loaded potato salad as his side and by far the best he has ever had dining out. The Prime Rib Dip was equally impressive, rich and satisfying with a delicious roll and gooey melted cheese. A perfect outdoor spot for a great meal after a day on the beach. Indoor seating is available. Our server Adam was engaging and funny! Made us feel welcomed and a valued customer. He made sure our beverages were full and was a fun addition to a great meal. He even provided a chilled stainless steel bowl of water for our pup! We will be frequenting here more often! My only recommendation is a little outdoor update, pull the weeds and have a better curb appeal as it is on a busy road, even a shrub/lattice barrier between seating and parking lot/road.

Latter while I wait for breakfast

I enjoyed a quick breakfast on my own today and really liked this cute place! They serve breakfast and lunch with many options. I had the Wake up Plate and I chose scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit and cheddar grits. The latte was perfectly done. Good value for the amount of quality food that I had. Friendly service too!

Cute patio outside dining but we took food to go!

See all

It's always nice when a restaurant exceeds your expectations…read more Had lunch today and I gotta say wow. The room is gorgeous, I love how it's divided up, reminded me of Spice Market RIP in NYC. Soaring ceilings, linen napkins, and a nice view of the ocean. Service was fantastic, always topping off the water. They give you a complimentary warm biscuit and big cracker with some pimiento cheese and herb butter. That was so nice and reminded me of old world hospitality. The food was very nice. Cup of she crab soup was fantastic. Generous portion of crab with a tiny kick. Incredible grilled cheese with a home made tomato bisque. And a massive blt that had blue crab in it and a fried green tomato. Very tasty. The bread could have been toasted a little longer but it didn't fall apart. Also came with a side salad which I picked Cesar and it did not dissapoint. One let down was being charged $7 for a glass of iced tea, which sat empty for the last 20 min of the meal and was not refilled. Aside from that it was a really nice lunch in a gorgeous setting.

Our dining experience started off great with our servers: Tara and Camilia (or Kamilia) . They both…read morewere so friendly and knowledgeable. The food was delicious. The fried food however seemed like they used the same batter (and grease) which everything taste the same. It was good but I wish things had a different profile. As someone who is from the south, the macaroni and cheese was a poor example of southern food. However, besides that it was a great experience. Tara made amazing drinks. Great atmosphere and overall a great experience! Would recommend!
