Crema's Take

Watusi Cafe is a beloved Hilton Head institution that punches above its weight with upscale decor and a relaxed vibe that welcomes everyone from solo coffee drinkers to large family groups. Their breakfast and brunch menu shines with creative Southern-leaning dishes like brisket and crab eggs Benedict, paired with generous pastries and traditional coffee drinks in a surprisingly spacious setting that includes a lovely outdoor patio. Whether you're a local seeking your weekend ritual or a visitor wanting to experience the island's best, the consistently warm service and central Pope Avenue location make it the kind of place people return to again and again.

We really enjoyed our breakfast at this well established little gem in Hilton Head, SC. Convenient location and decent size parking lot. It's a lot larger inside then I thought it would be. Great service from Grettell our waitress. Delicious food, and such a quaint type of atmosphere. I had a breakfast omelette your way and my drink that was recommended by Grettell was the Lady London Fog. Hubby had a aromatic coffee and the Shrimp Hash. Needless to say he didn't have any to take home! They also have a nice small area where they sell Watusi t shirts, cups, jewelry, and lots of other memorabilia. A coffee bar with some detectable treats. Make this a stop if you are in the area!

Watusi was a great place for breakfast or brunch as that is what my wife and I went there for. The service was great and the food was delicious. The environment was relaxed and comfortable. And the prices were reasonable

Delicious food. I had the Southern style brisket eggs Benedict and husband had the crab eggs Benedict and shared a French toast. All excellent. Waiter Kevin was very nice. Beautiful atmosphere, lovely to sit outside on the patio with our dogs. They had ice water for the dogs too.

Watusi was a favorite of our weekend on Hilton Head! The food was delicious, the selections so amazing it was hard to choose and the staff was friendly and accommodating of a large group for Sunday brunch. Everything was fresh and they had a good selections for those with dietary restrictions. Be sure to ask about prices for sides and add ons - it wasn’t totally clear whether some things were included so the totals were more than expected. But 10/10 recommend. Notable: Strawberry Pancakes, Strawberry Chocolate Smoothie, Avocado Toast and Eggs Benedict.
