Cafe Charlotte

We stopped in for breakfast after having a medical procedure at MUSC Citadel located across the street! Talk about a hidden GEM! Great little breakfast/ lunch place. Unpretentious casual European style cafe. Great breakfast options at reasonable prices. I had the "American Dream " which was as hearty a breakfast as you can find. My wife enjoyed an omelet. Wide array of delicious looking pastries. We chatted with the owner Tom a very friendly gentleman who I believe is also the cook. Really great place worth a try. We will certainly return

The food is always delicious in a warm, cozy, inviting, German cafe. But the real gem are the owners who are always friendly and kind, going out of their way to welcome their customers. The owners along side their staff do a wonderful job making Cafe Charlotte a place you can’t help but want to return to!

We had our wedding in Charleston and were in desperate need of someone to provide our guests with an authentic German Kaffee und Kuchen experience when we came across Café Charlotte. Everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish! If I could give 6 or 7 stars, I would!! Communication was smooth, Tom and his family were incredibly nice and professional at the same time! Quality of the cakes and specialty coffees as well as the presentation were exceptional! The whole family supports the endeavor which creates an atmosphere that money can’t buy - providing the extra touch to our German speaking guests! I can’t thank them enough for being part of our special day!

Went here for early lunch and we like this cute little cafe on the corner of the establishment. The girl behind the counter was friendly and took out ordered pretty well. My friend ordered the English muffin with egg and I ordered the hashtag (croissant with brown sugar bacon, hashbrown, cheese, and egg) which was pretty good. I also ordered the hot latte but the coffee was not hot it was kinda like warm temperature. I had iced coffee latte from this place before so next visit I think I am going to order iced coffee instead of hot coffee.

If you’re looking for a hidden gem with real personality, Café Charlotte is it. Affordable and tasty! Environment: The place has an amazing vibe. It’s cozy, creative, and feels like something straight out of a movie. It has that warm, community feel that makes you want to stay longer. We even met a really nice couple sitting next to us, ended up chatting, and exchanged contact info. Definitely the kind of spot that brings good people together. Service: Kylee, our barista, was super friendly and helped us figure out what to order since it was our first time. I also spoke with the owner, Tom, who’s genuinely one of the nicest and most personable owners I’ve met. You can tell he really cares about his customers and the experience. Food Quality: We ordered the Caprice and the Big Tom, both flavorful and perfectly made. Added a little turkey and it hit the spot. The bread had that perfect crunch, everything was fresh and balanced. Overall: Family-owned, welcoming, and full of character. Café Charlotte feels like a spot you’d stumble upon in a film authentic and unforgettable. Highly recommend this place.
