Review by Lori Hill

The Palmetto Cafe boasts a lovely brunch experience in a stylish Charleston setting! 🌺

I recently visited for their brunch buffet and appreciated the cozy ambiance and attentive service. Highlights included the amazing bacon and roasted pork shoulder, while the pastries and individual maple syrup bottles were delightful touches.

However, some dishes missed the mark - the egg bake was watery, and a few meats were a bit dry. Overall, it’s a beautiful spot for a special occasion, so just remember to manage your expectations with the food quality... ☕✨
