The sandwiches definitely would have been great if the bread was warm.
The mocha my husband ordered was around an 8/10
My pistachio matcha was a 7/10 because I found the matcha flavor too weak
It’s a cute place, I wouldn’t go back, but I do recommend trying it!
The onion and tomato pizza was just okay. The bread felt overly soaked in the sauce and lost its texture, which was disappointing, especially given the many positive things I’ve heard about the pizza here.
The Akbar Mashti cheesecake (pistachio & saffron) was good—very dense and moist. The pistachio cheesecake layer was nicely thick, though we felt it could be even better with more pistachio crunch on top to add textural contrast.
The flat white was under-extracted, quite acidic, with a grassy flavor. Our biggest concern, however, was that our hot coffee was served in a disposable cup (a paper cup with a plastic layer inside) even though we ordered to dine in. We are a bit concerned about food safety, and mugs would be more appropriate for in-store service.
Overall, today’s experience was a bit disappointing. I’ve previously enjoyed their burrata pesto sandwich, croissant, savory scone, and matcha pound cake, which were all quite good.
The pistachio croissant had a lovely nutty flavor, was creamy, and not overly sweet — just the way I like it. Everything about it was spot on.
As for the pizza, I really enjoyed the contrast of the crispy crust and the soft, fluffy inside, along with the juicy, flavorful sauce.
Overall, I was really impressed. This is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to — can’t wait to try more of their bakery items!
The food is excellent. The scones are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside as they should be. The bread is fantastic and unique. They have sugar that is flavored with saffron, cinnamon, and cardamom for your coffee.
There is an attention to detail (the artwork, the music, and of course, the food) that is refreshing and really makes the experience of eating here worthwhile. Yes, the food is excellent (as noted above) but it’s also what you want for a breakfast conversation, or study spot, or reprieve from the daily grind.
I like this place and you will too.
It is pricy, but this is Charlestown, so that makes sense, and there are no surprises (if, say, non dairy milk costs extra, someone will tell you before you order and get the extra charge).
The art work is fun and curious too! I appreciate that it sent me reading to learn more.
Parking is tough here, but, again, that’s Charleston for you.
They have nice looking pastries, I especially like that they sell ones from the day before at a discounted price. Don’t miss out on the pizza though, the sausage and cauliflower one was delicious with a really fluffy thick crust, would definitely recommend!
