The Charleston Tea Room Cafe

Food was awful. Every dish. The egg salad was sliced and drenched and mixed with an off-brand salad dressing and put on a low budget croissant. Their corn chowder was bland with no flavor. The pumpkin bread was dry. The shrimp salad was boiled shrimp drenched in an off brand salad dressing with no seasoning. The chicken salad tasted like canned deviled spread. Pimento cheese didn’t taste homemade. Everything seemed to be low budget store bought slapped together. No attention to detail. Olive green plastic table covers. No China ... cheap white restaurant plain plates. Their signature Charleston Delight desert served on almost every plate in plastic jello cups, was nothing to write home about. If you delight in an awesome tea room experience, then skip this place! Wish I could give them zero stars!

I really enjoyed this quaint little sandwich bistro. The chicken salad on a croissant was delicious! I drank hot tea with mine. Service was excellent; very attentive and friendly waitress but not intrusive. I'd go back and take guests with confidence in a good return on investment. Highly recommend.

Glad they're back open 11-2! Some great new delicious items added to their always great menu. Fast, friendly service. The new management is very welcoming, hard-working, and accommodating. Good prices!

My go to lunch spot every time I’m in town! I always order a sandwich or salad sampler bc I can’t decide what my favorite item is. Everything is so good! I’m also a big fan of the potato salad and the Charleston delight dessert. The apricot iced tea is so refreshing. The owner is so sweet and attentive to her customers. Highly recommend.

Wow! Things have changed and I won't be coming back here again. Service was very slow and it was obvious they are spending their time on to go orders and NOT restaurant customers. Also the description of the tuna salad is erroneous. My sister was misled by the menu so went without most of her lunch AND then they surcharge for using a debit or credit card! Never again for me!
