This is another example of "hole-in-wall equals a hole-in-one" (aka, quality). The exterior looks rough! But when you're visiting a city, stop in to support one local biz, and that biz owner asks if you've been to Charleston Bread...well, you know you have to go. Honestly I was full at this point, as I had been to a coffee shop, cake shop, and market. But when in Charleston...I walked in and immediately the aroma captivated me. It was as if every oven had opened simultaneously, as the smell of cookies and breads and spices all entranced me. Two others were ahead of me and when I mentioned it was my first time, they had plenty of recommendations. I could tell this was sage advice being sent my way. I also noticed, on their menu, that the sourdough bread had "Charleston" in front of it. So I inquired about the difference between theirs and others, if any. The head baker came up and explained how the elevation, temperature, and water all effect the starter which in turn effects the final dough which produces each loaf. And yes, I did leave with a loaf (along with a number of other items). I gave myself about a hour (and the walk back to my hotel) to work up appetite so I could fully enjoy this experience. Then, I devoured everything. Delicious, perfect textures, and the longing that I wish I lived closer. If you are within a hour of this place stop in!

This is a local bakery, not a restaurant. There's free parking at the end of the building and metered spaces curbside. The baguettes are amazing. They have a good selection of breads and a few pastries but bread is the emphasis. Charleston Bread is a real gem. Go there

Charleston Bread has the worst customer service that I have ever received in my entire life. This wasn’t just one occasion, I have been a loyal customer for two years and I will not return! It’s not worth the hassle of dealing with extremely rude staff on a regular basis. Take your business anywhere but there

I grew up with bread from the grocery store, so going to a bakery weekly in order to get our bread supply was a novelty. It quickly turned into a habit, and there’s no turning back.
The bread choices are all delicious, and we love the sourdough varieties best. The bagels are the best I’ve ever had, the baguettes crispy and buttery and oh so versatile. The cookies and other treats are also delicious.
I don’t have a photo of the bread or store, but here’s our girl enjoying the last of the baguette.
Highly recommend.

Great place with friendly people working! The pastries are so good and fresh! My favorites were the chocolate croissants and chocolate chip cookies but there were no bad options!

Always satisfied with baked goods from here! I visited earlier in the day so there was a great selection (there's less left to choose from later in the day which is normal for a bakery like this). I picked up a loaf of Charleston Sourdough bread and a loaf of cinnamon raisin swirl. Mmmmm!

On this particular day I was parked close to Charleston Bread for a dentist appointment, but let me say Charleston Bread is one of my favorite places in Charleston. Smells like heaven, pastries, rolls, cookies breads and the list goes on. If you have a favorite you better get there early or it might be sold out, happened to me more than once.
