We also went to the cafe based on reviews on trip advisor. We had a party of 15 . The person in the front said they had a large table in the back and the wait would be about 30 minutes. She came out later and said about 40 minutes. You have to wait outside due to the cafe being... more

Went here for lunch based on number one rating for restaurants in Charleston. We had soup and a sandwich. Nothing to write home about. Mostly very young clientelle (college students maybe). Saw or tasted nothing I would go back for. more

I ate at this restaurant with my husband and in laws over Thanksgiving weekend. Our meal was wonderful, and we did not have to wait for a table even though it was Saturday night. I had some duck risotto that was delicious and only cost 12 dollars. The best thing about this restaurant is that there are sandwiches, soups, and... more

We dined at Five Loaves on our first evening in Charleston. We seemed to be the only tourists in the place which was a good sign and were warmly welcomed by the wait staff. We are vegetarians so there were many options to choose from. There is a large community table which was quickly taken by a group of CofC... more

I'm a tourist in town and ate here for the first time tonight. The place was very full even though it was 7:30 pm on a very rainy Tues night. It is definitely off the main tourist track but is a doable walk from the historical area (though I would recommend driving at night). Lively but relaxed atmosphere; the space... more

Even though we visit Charleston regularly, we had not been to Five Loaves until this recent trip (Oct. 24). We decided to go after seeing its good ratings in "Trip Adviser". Excellent food and super nice wait staff. It's not a real fancy place but it has a good atmosphere. It's near the College of Charleston so expect some young... more
