Any time I travel to a new city, trying out the local coffee shops are a must! There are so many around Charleston, it was hard to narrow down our choices!
✨photo 1 | stunning mirror inside Babas; see photo 2 description for my thoughts 😉
✨ photo 2 | I wanted to go here the next day. When I tell you this was the best matcha I’ve ever had, I’m not even kidding. I believe I got oat milk, but apparently they’re known for their house made peanut milk. I heard someone behind us in line saying how amazing it was & I really regretted not trying it! However, I did hear a woman say they locally source their peaches for the matcha. I could rave about it forever
✨photo 3 | I saw videos on TikTok of bitty & beaus and when I found out there was one here, I had to stop! The staff was so sweet & the coffee was delicious.
✨ photo 4 | a perfect stop of King Street! la patisserie is a French bakery, and I didn’t even take a photo of our pastries because we devoured them. While I didn’t try out their coffee, I highly recommend their pastries & can only imagine their coffee is just as good!
✨ photo 5 | Lodi was near our hotel & we stopped on our way into town one day. The vibes aren’t what typically catch my eye, but I was surprised at how good it was! It’s also drive through only so the convenience is nice.
✨ photo 6 | apparently I only took a pic of the menu at the Bald Monkey because I was laughing so hard at the “f me up” coffee & I forgot to take a pic of what I got! I had the cinnamonkey and it was so dang good! It’s located in goose creek so we stopped here on our way out of town!
