Premade sandwich was good, as was pastry. Just a suggestion. This being my first time, I found…read morethe process confusing. Nice staff member assisted me. Placing my pastry on a tray without a plate or tissue paper was just uncomfortable (promise I am not a germaphobe) . Have some type of paper to place on top of the tray might be helpful to gain the confidence of true germaphobes. Making a way thru the checkout process was also cumbersome. All in all, the pastry and food were great . I admit this being my first time , the confusion may have simply been my own. Just thought having staff to let newbies might be beneficial and avoid having potential customers leave . Having worked food and bev a number of years, I offer this only with the best of intentions that your establishment remains successful. Thx and good luck!

I gave in & decided to check out Paris Baguette located in Longpoint town center diagonally across…read morefrom Coastal Cupboard. There is tons of parking. The space itself is quite large with lots of seating and a self service area where you get a tree and pick up the pastries, cakes, slices, sandwiches, etc., and pay at the counter. They have a good selection of coffee, I got a latte and added an espresso shot. I also got a Boursin Cheese Quiche which they heated up for me. Delicious. All the baked goods and there are a lot, are made fresh every morning. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I was pleasantly surprised at the whole vibe... those cakes... pastries... sandwiches... pies... oh my... I will definitely return here.

They had a…read morevariety of yummy and slightly exotic macarons and we purchased a box of 6, along with a pink sparkly white chocolate Eiffel Tower. Here are the flavors we chose: Red velvet, lavender white chocolate, pistachio, violet cassis, grand marnier and dark chocolate, and finally basil and white chocolate. Some were flavored more boldly than others (red velvet just read as sweet, while the basil had a clear pizza sauce like flavor). Our favorites were the grand marnier and the lavender.

I was lucky enough to get a seat at Roxa in their first week. Having had Chef Heather's desserts at…read moreEdmund's Oast and at her pop-up downtown last year, I have been counting the days until she opened in Hanahan. Not having to worry about finding a parking spot is a game changer for me. The dessert bar is a dark purple, making the room feel comfortable and intimate while providing the perfect background for your Instagrammable drinks and plates. I started off with the Shirley Temple ($12 - NA). If there is cotton candy on the menu, I will order it - so this was an easy choice! My drink was served in a funky pink glass with a crisp wafer keeping the cotton candy from dissolving. The dessert menu offers a dozen or so options, including a Chef's Choice option of three desserts (well worth $42). I plan to return for their special Sunday tasting menu, so I chose two desserts of my own. The Sigh of Lima ($18) has a carrot cake base with butterscotch caramel and caramelized white chocolate and a floral finish. It was almost too beautiful to eat! I also ordered the Lemon Meringue Baked Alaska ($21); this one includes setting the dessert on fire and sprinkling sugar for a sparkler effect -- you should absolutely order it just for the theatrics! It has a kumquat sorbet with lemon curd, graham cracker, lavender, and of course the burnt meringue on top. My date for the night also ordered the Chocolate Teddi, which is maybe the cutest dessert I've ever seen and one which I wanted to bring home to cuddle with rather than eat. Make sure to make reservations in advance as the spot only holds 14-16 people! If you're having dinner at Cane Pazzo or Johnny's Garage, head to Roxa for a dessert nightcap. It's not to be missed.

My husband and I attended their opening night. From the moment you walk into the door, you know…read moreyou're in for an upscale experience. The soft lighting against the deep purple walls and gold fixtures were such a nice design choice. If you're like me and like to take pics of your food, you'll be happy to see touch activated lights that give you the perfect lighting to capture your desserts. It is a cozy space, so I would bring a few friends and not a large party. As we were seated at the chef's counter we got to see the chef preparing many of our dishes right there and it was fascinating to see how much attention goes into every dish. We shared a small tasting menu which consisted of a pre-dessert panna cotta and 3 smaller scaled dishes that were on the menu. Each and every dish was perfect. Individually, I ordered a chocolate cherry souffle and my husband ordered the baked Alaska. Our cocktails (I ordered a Shirley temple with cava and my husband ordered a mojito) paired perfectly with everything. We left with full bellies and plenty of gorgeous pics and videos of our experience. We can't wait to come back.

One day, I noticed that they had a sign saying Coffee and it said to come in, that they're open. I decided to give it a go. Wow! Walking in, there's a big display case full of beautiful chocolate candies. Reminded me of when I was a child and my granddaddy would take me to the Godiva store downtown to pick out some chocolates. These at Christophe's are extra fancy tho. They're hand painted! Well some of them are. A lot of the others are shaped like cute things. I got my friend a shark made of chocolate. It was hollow but the cutest thing was that it was filled with chocolate fish inside the chocolate shark! That's so appropriate for summer. My friend loves sharks and she loved this gift!!! Also, their coffee is pretty good, but they don't have many options for flavored coffees and lattes like I usually opt for. However what they do have usually hits the spot. They also sell deli sandwiches. I get the salami and Swiss sandwich. They heat it up for me in the kitchen. It is always delicious. And it's always followed by chocolate, which is the best part!

Iced coffee was refreshing I came back the next morning for another round. It was flavorful yet not sugary. It definitely gave me a kick and got addicted to it, except I'm only in the area for 4 days. Staff and manager were friendly yet professional. Although I was charged twice, the manager assured me they would fix it once the line was manageable. Somehow I trusted her word for it, just the manner with which she handled it was text book! Indeed, saw the overcharged taken care of by the next day. A must stop in downtown historic Charleston for sure! Great awesome pastries, sandwiches Parisian style made and clean refreshing breakfast beverages.

They serve soft serve ice cream, pastries and sweet treats, flan, smoothies, and coffee. We had their pastries on Christmas morning for breakfast and they were fantastic. Today we went in to try ice cream this time since our neighbors raved about it. Unfortunately they weren't finished making the new batch of ice cream when we arrived, but the ladies there were so sweet and kindly gave my daughter a free cupcake. Don't judge a book by its cover. The plaza it's in is older, but the inside is brand new and gives Barbie Land meets Candy Land. It's adorable, and my daughter's eyes lit up when we opened the door. Don't sleep on it!
