Fodor's Review:
The wooden barber poles from the last century still frame the door of this small, homespun café. Chalkboard specials are often the way to go here, be it breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Chef Robert Stehling is a Carolina boy who lived in New York; that dichotomy shows in his "uptown" comfort food. Have the perfect soft-shell crab sandwich with homemade fries, but leave room for the tangy buttermilk pie or the chocolate peanut butter pie. The young servers are sometimes frantic.

This was on our must try list and it was worthwhile but a tad expensive for what was served. French toast and pancakes for $8-9 with no coffee or potatoes. Most outrageous was the chocolate pudding for $6.95 we didn't ask which was our fault, but still... Not sure I would go back. F.Y.I. -In general most of the restaurants in Charleston are on the pricey end
best brunch in the world!

every time we go to charleston, we hit the hominy grill for sunday brunch. the regular breakfast is great, and the shrimp and grits is very reliable, but i like to try one of the more daring brunch specials when i'm there. memorable favorites include fried catfish and eggs in tasso ham gravy with grits and biscuits and a wonderful cornmeal waffle with spinach and chicken. the old barber shop in which the restaurant is housed is charming, and i am a fan of the outdoor patio seating with it's bamboo edging as well. the service runs the gamut from average to fantastic, but for the value, it's totally worth the risk!
