The DIME – short for Daniel Island Market and Eatery – is your go-to place for fresh and fabulous gourmet grab-and-go items – as well as coffee, gelato, pizza, sandwiches, salads, and drinks. Opened mid February 2021, they’ve partnered with a celebrated Charleston purveyor for this Daniel Island gem. Located at The Waterfront – Daniel Island.
Well-decorated café with a warm atmosphere.
The hot drinks were good, and the place is spacious enough to comfortably come with friends.
However, the atmosphere and staff style may feel unusual for a more traditional or conservative area, and it was not really what I expected in this region, which made the experience a bit less comfortable for me personally.
I understand there may be staffing difficulties nowadays, but I personally think the café could benefit from a more professional and locally fitting customer-facing approach.

4.5⭐ Enjoyed my experience on Daniel Island by starting my morning at the Dime. Quality breakfast eatery right in DI Waterfront Park. And yes, they have your oat & almond milk.
Although I only ordered an iced Americano ($3.25), I'd like to go back for the food menu. I noticed the wood-fired oven so one could assume their pizza may already have a leg up compared to others. Pleasantly surprised they serve wine morning/brunch alcoholic beverages (bloody mary, Irish coffee, mimosas). 8am-11:30am Breakfast menu - breakfast burritos/sandwiches (including pork roll), bagels, smoked salmon, quiche, and baked goods. Lunch menu 12pm - Close - Pizza, heavier sandwiches like BLTs, Meatball, Cubans, etc. If you have a sweet tooth, they even have ice cream for you or the little ones.
Plenty of room both inside and outside. It also seems like you're able to order for to go if you want to enjoy your meal & coffee by the water.
My only half star deduction was for a miscue in service. My order was called for being complete despite missing my fiance's drink even though it was on the ticket. Despite the confusion it was made in a few minutes. Still was an overall great coffee and eatery to pop in.

This is a great spot for coffee or a quick sandwich.
The outdoor seating area with a fireplace is especially nice—really adds to the cozy vibe.
One thing that could use improvement: all the milk options are sweetened except whole milk. There's no unsweetened one available, which is a bit disappointing. Some of my friends avoid it because a single drink can easily add 40–50g of sugar, and there's no real workaround—you can only add more sweetness with syrup or sweetener, not remove it. Offering an unsweetened milk option would make the place much more welcoming to a wider range of customers. Hope they consider adding it soon!
Let's be healthy!

The Dime is a special little breakfast and luncheon eatery on Daniel Island. It’s well located near a park and the river. Plenty of inside and outside seating, but also offers take away. The food is fresh and fantastic! If you’re in the area it’ worth stopping in for a pork roll on an everything bagel
