Caviar & Bananas
51 George St, Charleston, SC
Crema's Take
“This Charleston gem seamlessly blends a polished catering operation with a welcoming neighborhood café, where you can linger over thoughtfully sourced pastries and specialty coffee drinks in a genuinely warm atmosphere. Ryan and his team have built a reputation for treating both casual drop-ins and large corporate events with the same careful attention to ingredient quality and detail, making it equally perfect for a solo coffee moment or hosting an important meeting. It's the kind of place that rewards curiosity—many regulars admit they almost walked past before discovering it's exactly what they didn't know they were looking for.”

We (New York Life) recently partnered with Caviar & Bananas Catering for a formal awards banquet, and the experience exceeded expectations from start to finish. The food was outstanding — beautifully presented, flavorful, and consistently praised by our guests throughout the evening. Equally impressive was the professionalism of the on-site team. Service was seamless, attentive, and well-coordinated, which made a significant difference in the overall success of the event. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident at every stage, from planning to execution. Caviar & Bananas delivers both exceptional cuisine and exceptional service. I would confidently recommend them for corporate events, special occasions, or any gathering where quality and reliability matter. We look forward to working with them again in the future.
We had Caviar & Bananas cater lunch for our group on Thursday, Feb 12. Internally, we had some confusion and failed to order for a group of 12 until that morning. But Ryan and his team were up to the challenge! They were incredibly professional, responsive and punctual, and the food was delightful! I HIGHLY recommend Caviar & Bananas!!! NOTE: I did not score atmosphere because they catered in our hotel versus their brick-and-mortar
We’ve used Caviar & Bananas for everything from large 75+ person events to smaller 10-person meetings, and they absolutely hit it out of the park every single time. Their catering manager, Ryan, is incredible. He answers every question, provides thoughtful guidance, and brings real expertise when helping us select menus that work for our group. They’ve also been fantastic about accommodating a wide range of dietary restrictions and allergies, which is no small feat. Everything is always delivered on time, beautifully packed, and prepared to perfection. Reliable, professional, and consistently delicious. We couldn’t recommend them more.
This is a great spot to grab breakfast lunch or a snack. Everyone is super helpful. The food was delicious and I appreciate that they care about the ingredients they are using. If you need a quick bite to eat or want a quick lunch do not hesitate to stop in here.
I've passed this place so many times and have always wondered what it looks like on the inside. I'm glad I finally was able to stop and enjoy not only the food, but the atmosphere. This little stop-in gourmet cafe is perfect for any college student to businessman. It's busy with traffic constantly coming in and out but the good kind of hustle and bustle. I ordered a customized sandwich and was not disappointed! Their bagels are also from Ruby's , which I absolutely love! Highly recommend!!
