Great service! Employees kind and engaging. Fig and prosciutto pizza best in Charleston! Clean. Comfortable. Great experience!

While visiting my mother in law on Daniel Island, we stopped for lunch at The Dime. It is right by the water and a convenient casual eatery to grab a quick bite. They do not have bathrooms, however, the nearby bathroom was well maintained and suitable for myself as well as a diaper change for my daughter. My husband and I are vegan and the reason I cannot give 5 stars to this business is there are no readily available vegan options on the menu. It is a good spot for vegetarians, but the menu is lacking dairy free/egg free options without meat. When we spoke to the employees taking orders about what we could eat as vegans, I appreciate how patient and creative they were to come up with a solution. We ended up ordering a pizza with no cheese and all the available vegetable toppings. The pizza did look beautiful. I thought the presentation was lovely. The best part of the pizza was the crust. I am a sucker for a wood fired crust. The toppings did not taste great. The flavors were a little too acidic for my preference. I assume the cheese would have mellowed that out and this pizza was not really meant to be veganized. I thank The DIME for doing all they could to accommodate my vegan family. I do hope next time I visit there is an actual vegan option on the menu I can enjoy. read more

Loved this spot in Daniel's Island. Great to stop in and grab a coffee before walking around the area. They have an outdoor patio area, but there's plenty of places to grab a table around the area if you're planning on eating. Inside is clean and accessible. Tables all around but majority of the menu can be for grab and go. No parking lot, but lots of parking available within the area and easy to walk to. Great place and great coffee! read more

The Dime on Daniel Island has a very cool vibe and I cannot believe it's taking me this long to visit! It's right next-door to the restaurant called the Kingstide ! It's a super cute coffee shop and eatery that also serves lunch--and yes, they have pizza! They have a lovely selection of croissants, bagels, pastries, and a huge selection of coffee. The place gives off a beachy, trendy feel with cool decor and a bright, open layout. There's even a cute outdoor seating area with a fireplace and some shady spots, perfect for relaxing outside. It is perfect spot on Daniel Island to meet friends for coffee and to catch up or to have a business meeting. It's bustling with people coming & going, or people working on laptops which makes it a great spot for some low-key people watching while you sip your coffee. Speaking of coffee-- I had an affogato , and then I had a latte ..delicious. I had the soft scrambled eggs and burrata with basil and it was seriously tasty. Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully done. You can tell this spot has been a local favorite for a while. Whether you're grabbing a latte, brunch, or just hanging out, Parking is a breeze, lots of it near the coffee shop. The Dime is definitely worth a visit and I will definitely be returning. read more

Stopped by after a morning walk. The place was very busy, but the line moved very efficiently. Friendly and clean environment. Drinks were a little pricey but very yummy. The outside patio seating was nice and spacious. read more

Great atmosphere. Honestly one of the most laid back coffee shops. Indoor and outdoor seating. I love how none-pretentious this place is. I had the matcha latte that was just slightly sweet, just the way I like it. There is always a long line but it moves fast. Staff are friendly. read more

Its super cute inside with out door seating as well. Their menu is quite large for being so small. I dont love the fact that there is a time where they dont serve food though between lunch and breakfast. Its quite busy on weekends but the line moves fast! Easy parking all around. They have pasteries, coffees, teas and actual breakfast sandwiches too. read more

This is the perfect spot to drop into for a coffee, breakfast or light lunch. I love riding my bike here to sit in the courtyard and working for a bit on the WiFi. Mic drop moment: the breakfast burrito has tater tots in it! Counter service is quick which is good because it gets busy at peak times. They recently added Apple Pay so that's huge for when you're just out and about. The inside space is loud but lots of seating for a quick meeting or snack with the kids - outside is much nicer with umbrellas, couches and a fire place! It's also walled so you're protected from the breeze off the river. Another plus is the playground right next door for the kids to work off their sugary treats! read more

The Dime is the perfect stop for everyday or your weekend! Many coffee choices! My favorite is the Dirty Chai Latte. Also, The Dime offers Smoothies for non-coffee or caffeine drinkers. The Dime has a full menu, fresh bakery items and many prep/grab and go items. The Dime offers GF rotating loaf and this pictured donut which is amazing, along with a few other GF options. There is also little gift ideas inside to grab. There is ample seating inside and outside! They also offer pickup ordering which is usually very busy! The atmosphere is great because of the variety in seating plus a little walking path/green area next door for use as well! The location is beautiful next to the water! It's a must stop on our weekends! Ample parking lot across the green area. read more

I was disappointed to find that both times I posted a flyer for my travel business, it was removed within a day, while other community flyers remained displayed. The inconsistency felt discourteous and unwelcoming. read more

I thought it was time for an update! I come to Dime weekly, and I will say while the drinks are still hit or miss on occasion, the staff is always absolutely wonderful! Would recommend if you're in the area, but be prepared for longer lines on the weekend. read more

Beautifully located by the water, The Dime is a great coffee and snack spot. None of the menu options caught my eyes food wise, they have sandwiches, toasts, pizza, etc. I got a matcha latte with oatmilk + a honey cupcake with earl grey frosting, which was delightful. The frosting was delish, and honey cupcake tasted like a dense honey cornbread. Made for a great combo. Ambience is super cute, with both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

I came here for the first time picking up an order for me and my gf. I ordered two strawberry shortcake lattes, one with oat milk, one with whole milk. The girl at the front register rang in one as a matcha. I politely let her know I wanted two lattes that are the same just with different milks. I thought she had fixed the order and then the barista called my name and one was a matcha the other as a latte. I was going to tough it out because I don't mind matcha but my matcha was sour, no syrup and made with oat milk (I don't drink that) and the regular latte was a strawberry shortcake with whole milk. My gf doesn't drink whole milk. This place has no competition in the area so it's no wonder they're so busy. But major disappointment! read more

Looking for a coffee shop where I could charge laptops and perhaps do some work, I did not find it in The DIME. It's a lovely spot and with the big windows on three sides, full of sunshine. But the tables in the center are without outlets and the folks inside are eating meals and drinking coffee. It's more "restaurant" than "coffee shop." I had a cortado while I pondered the next step. No complaints and still five stars - the coffee was excellent and it's a great location. Just not one that's good for working.

We stopped into The Dime after dining at the Kings Tide. This was a beautiful little shop with coffee, chai, a variety of teas, and assorted snacks. Because we had already eaten, we just grabbed chai and a tea. My husband loved his chai, and I loved my tea. The tea I chose was Chamomile Rose. A unique flavor. that was perfect for the cold weather day. There is a wonderful little park nearby with trails and great views! The atmosphere is a fun little spot, busy but not overall noisy. We also went on a weekend so this might change. Please note that there were a couple pups inside so it appears to be pet friendly. We are cool with that but be aware Service was fast and friendly. We'd definitely return and try other goodies! read more

I'm always looking to try places I haven't been to yet so after I finished an early morning appt on DI I was looking for a new-to-me coffee shop. I walked into The Dime and was surprised by how big it was. We were about to get a big storm and folks were hunkering down so it wasn't very busy. I decided that I deserved a bagel sandwich to go with my coffee so I ordered a mocha and a pork roll, egg, and cheese on a bagel. I sat with my coffee and waited for my sandwich to go. I noticed that they have a beautiful pizza oven and you could watch the chef make the breakfast choices. I didn't even realize they did pizza as well. I love that the sandwich came out of that oven because it had a nice crunch on the outside of the bagel even after I got it back to my house. Now I can't wait to come back to try the rest of the menu. read more

Went to Daniel Island with my daughter to pick up her glasses. Lunchtime and hunger hit us. She mentioned a Wood fired pizza place-Dime, so we decided to try it out. Placed our order at the register with very friendly server. People were in and out and we were served rather quickly after we decided on our drinks-many kinds available including FROSE', sandwiches & pizzas. Rather pricey! Gluten free options are available. Inside & Outside seating is available. It was a nice sunny day so patio seating was perfect. Good thing the patio was perfect because the food-not so much. The two that had Gluten free pizza had slightly undercooked pizzas. Mine however was definitely NOT undercooked, more like WOOD FIRED-burnt! Not sure if the oven needs to be cleaned ever so often but for your hands to be blackened after picking up your pizza is not a good sign. No pictures were taken which was unfortunate! Seeing is believing! From reading others reviews, looks as if coffee and pastries are your best bet. Handicap parking is available. Beautiful view of the waterfront park areas. read more

The Dime is 10/10 for breakfast + lunch and a perfect place to get work done or meet up with a friend. The staff is sooo kind and friendly. I typically go for coffee and to work- the breakfast burrito is insanely good. Their wood-fired pizza is the best on DI. We love the margarita pizza & the fig and prosciutto. Could not recommend this place enough! Indoor and outdoor seating also. read more

I had a great experience here! I enjoy the seasonal lattes a lot and the avocado toast was great.

I've been here at least 5 times now because it's convenient and the only coffee option near the Daniel Island waterfront. The service is always terrible with surly teens at the counter that can't even be bothered to greet the customers. We tried it again for dinner this past Friday and were even more disappointed than usual. The food was meh and the service was so subpar it was laughable. Actual interaction: "Hi. What wines by the glass do you have?" Teen stares at me with dead eyes and lazily points to the giant menu behind her that's very high on the wall and reads "rotating white", etc. Then she says, "There's a cooler over there you can look at." I look at the cooler, I look at the bottles on the shelf, I go back to the counter. "Can you tell me what white wines you have open, please?" Another dead-eyed stare, annoyed at life/me/having to do the most minor of tasks to earn a paycheck? Anywho, I'll spare you the rest of the painful interaction in which she eventually poured me a 2-oz glass of wine in a water cup, handed my husband the bottle opener to open his own bottle and had to be asked for additional glasses for the rest of our party and she just shoved disposable water cups at us. The food ordering was just as miserable. We should've left after the 1st interaction but we were with a group. The owners clearly don't care about their customers with the way the staff is allowed to behave (and also, the disgusting state of the tables and countertops). Do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else. The only reason this place stays in business is because it's convenient and they have no competition, unfortunately. read more

Ambiance was fine. Food not good. Coffee average. Won't be back. Breakfast burrito worst one ever.

Great spot for coffee, frose, breakfast and even pizza! The pizza is probably the best option on the menu, otherwise their sandwich/salad selection is pretty limited. Their coffee and smoothies are good as well! They've even got a little market area where you can purchase drinks/snacks. Overall their food and drinks are good, the menu is just limited (otherwise I'd give it an extra star). read more

First time here... we did a little 'grab n' go' coffee and walked around the Waterfront/docks to check it all out. My dirty chai was great! My guy ordered a double espresso- was only served a single, so I just think maybe his order wasn't heard correct- no big deal. It seems like a great little spot for breakfast and lunch bites, pizza, ice cream- which we will try soon! A good amount of tables inside as well as a patio outside. They also have a cooler of sodas, wine, etc. I will have to peek a little closer next time but there is also a table of interesting snacks/jams. If you are lucky enough to be able to pull up to the dock nearby- great little shop to grab a few things and launch back onto the water! read more

My friends and I grabbed coffee Saturday morning at the dime, and I had been there multiple times because the sweet jessamine flower truck use to park there but they don't anymore :(( anyways I showed my friends it and they loved their coffee, Pictures is the vanilla iced latte - a classic. It was pretty large and fairly priced for how big. I got the seasonal flavor Cinnabon flavor. It was creamy and rich, and the perfect coffee for a Saturday morning push. We sadly didn't get any food but they have so many goodies, from pizzas to breakfast sandwich's and burritos. Also lots of gluten feee options in pastries, we will be coming back to try those out soon. The line gets long quick but goes by fast, there's lots of parking surrounding it. Quick heads up the do not take Apple Pay:( but I know I appreciate when I know in advance. It's close to the water and has seating inside and out but you can walk to the park or sit on a swing facing the water which was peaceful. Definitely check it out. read more

The DIME is my favorite coffee shop in the Mount Pleasant area. It is in a really beautiful part of Daniel Island, surrounded by a small park with a dock. The coffee shop it's self is bright, spacious, and offer is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Not only do they offer coffee and tea, they also have ice cream and food available as well. The lattes are fantastic and the customer service is always great. I love the design of the coffee shop, the interior is absolutely adorable! read more

Always a sure thing for coffee or a bite to eat when on Daniel Island. Although not on the beaten path, go ahead and give it a go.

This is such a cool spot. Right on the water where there are walking trails and grassy areas to sit. I love their breakfast-- the ricotta toast is wonderful. And they sell Ruby's New York Style bagels, which are my personal fave! Service is always really quick. It tends to be pretty loud inside, but they also have outdoor seating. read more

Went here for an iced latte and the price point was fine but the color was very light in my opinion and it was simply not sweet enough even though I had to pay an extra 75¢ for the syrup. They should have a line item on the menu of a flavored iced latte and put in 1.5-2x the flavor they put in a regular iced latte + flavor. 3 stars because it was cute in the restaurant, the pizza looked and smelled great, and the service was fast and easy. read more

I came here with my partner on a Saturday afternoon for a quick bite to eat before a walk around town. I'm happy to report that we'll definitely stop by again. Echoing its sister establishment The Kingstide, The Dime has all the same interior coastal charm. The coffee menu is wide, and there is a variety of local snacks and goods to buy as well. My latte was good, and the Italian sandwich met expectations. My partner and I have sweet tooths that we can't resist, so we bought an ice cream sandwich as a small dessert. That was maybe the best part of the meal. The food does not impress as much as its nextdoor neighbor, but the options are much more casual anyway. Besides, what you're coming for is a coffee and the quaint outdoor seating or the view by the water -- or the ice cream sandwich. read more

The Dime has evolved and improved over time. Now offering freshly made to order pizzas and sandos (including gluten free!). Still great cortado and iced selections with homemade syrups for unique flavors. Gluten-free loaf of the day is usually fantastic. More reasons to live this spot next to one of the prettiest areas to explore in Charleston. A bit loud indoors but patio offers a more quiet option. read more

I've given The Dime several chances, but each visit has been disappointing in terms of service. The staff seem annoyed and it genuinely feels like customers are a bother.

Pizza, poke, wine, lemonade, and then some! The Dime slings fourth yummy espresso drinks and the tea they steep is very flavorful! I tried their green tea, very good choice to try. The poke bowl's rice was creamy and dreamy plus liked that they didn't shy away from the tuna - I like when it's a generous amount like that! Next time I wanna try their espresso drinks. Cute little spot near the water with walking trails to enjoy as well. Friendly crew working. Keep up the good work! read more

The cashier, food server and staff were not friendly. The food was so-so. I don't usually use hot sauce, but I added hot sauce to my egg, cheese and bacon bagel to give it flavor. $14 dollars for a meh breakfast burrito . read more

What a cool new coffee spot! I met a friend here for coffee and then decided to stay to do some work. They have seasonal syrups! Seriously, who does that??? The most recent is their peanut butter syrup. The barista suggested putting it in a mocha for a peanut butter cup taste. It was delicious! While I was working I grabbed a bite to eat. I couldn't decide if I wanted to do savory or sweet. Their cinnamon rolls looked so tasty. However I decided to go with the bacon, egg and cheese on an everything bagel. Great choice! I wish I lived locally! This would be my go to spot to work. read more
