It was November around 10:45 AM, so we were able to snag the last available table inside. Again, if you don't know by now, I don't drink coffee, but they offered Kombucha which I've grown to enjoy to drink. If you're in West Ashley, this is a great local spot to support.

One was a hot latte with whole milk and the other was a Peppa Mint latte with whole milk, also hot. Our order came out in ten minutes, and I was ready to go! Both lattes were well-made! The taste was great, and the coffee beans were good. They definitely started our morning off right.

The woman that took our order was kind but the guy barista gave us a weird look, not super welcoming. Regardless, I ordered the Mt. Joy strawberry matcha and the syrup that they used seemed to be homemade and fresh - very delicious! They also made the matcha the right way and mixed it in a bowl outside of the cup and then poured it into the Oatly afterwards. My boyfriend got a cold brew with Oatly and was so impressed that he went vac and bought a bag to take back home with us. I lament not trying the food since it looks so good, but this is a stop that we're adding to the agenda next time for sure!

As soon as I pulled in, someone was there to greet me and take my order, and despite the crowd, the line moved super quickly. The energy was high, everyone was friendly, and it honestly just felt fun to be there. They were giving out free small drinks of your choice for the big day, which was such a nice touch. It's always great to see a new spot open with this kind of excitement. Drink choices were plentiful especially the variety. They are limited on their food selections and didn't have any veggie options. I'm sure new items are being thought of as I speak. Can't wait to swing back through and try something new next time.

The pastry was a bit underdone. Looks like it may have been popped in the oven too fast and too furiously. Otherwise, amazing job SoCarolina! The TOMATO BACON PIMENTO CHEESE PIE is an homage to all the Southern Mommas. It is simply divine in all its cheesy tomatoey glory. Edited to add: the SWEET POTATO AND CARAMELIZED COFFEE CAKE is heaven! It's light and pillowy. Not too sweet, not too crumbly. Whoever concocted the idea for this creation has to know this is the potential masterpiece of everyone's morning. I was just missing the coffee with it, ha! The GINGER COOKIE is iced and sprinkled with sugar for texture. Also amazingly baked. I just wished it had some crystallized ginger pieces for more spice!

I ended up leaving with eight bags of single-origin beans from all over the world. Having worked my way through about half of them so far, I've been very impressed by the consistent quality and clean, vibrant flavors across the board. I'm a bit of a coffee-snob so this is saying something! While it's a bit on the pricey side, that's simply the reality of specialty coffee these days, and the craftsmanship here at least justifies it. I highly recommend supporting these wonderful folks--especially if you love lighter roasts with sweet, bright tasting notes. They have been the absolute perfect way to start my mornings!

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.
