Saveurs Du Monde Cafe WestEdge

I found this absolute hidden gem of a place filled with some of the most lovely people I’ve gotten to chance to meet. Wonderful, kind energy from the staff, deliciously smooth coffee and the tastiest little baked goods. It’s made its way into my weekly stops.

We bought a chicken salad panini to take away which cost $15 and my husband had a ham one $12. When we opened the sandwich it was deli meat (1 thin slice) two slices of tomatoes and a thin layer of wilted lettuce. With breakfast we spent over $50 and to be honest Publix would have been nicer. Very disappointed especially as we have been coming here on 2nd January for 4 years. We visit from Orlando.

What a wonderful chance to have dinner served by Chef Jerome and Rini! The food was melting in your mouth, perfectly seasoned, made from scratch, and super fresh! We had the boeuf bourguignon, chicken coq au vin, and lasagna (as well as various pastries). Decorations, soft French music created a warm and welcoming ambiance.

I just went here for the first time and had the most amazing experience EVER! When we walked in, we were treated by the sweetest employee. She had the biggest smile and made us feel so welcomed. The atmosphere is just beautiful! Quiet and relaxing, but not awkward. It was calming and peaceful. The plants and lighting decorations were stunning. Now to the food - I got the Quiche and it was the best Quiche I’ve ever had. I also got a cup of the Soup, which was the French Onion soup, again, seriously the best French onion soup I’ve ever had. Which I’ve had a lot. Now to the pastries - I didn’t even take a picture because I ate it as soon as I got my hands on it. It was perfect. I had the pecan tartlet and a few macarons, perfect amount of sweetness. 100% recommend and I can’t wait to go back.

Insane that two coffees and two breakfast croissants was $50!! Service is always so slow and there’s never more than one person working. I felt so bad for the lady behind the counter. Breakfast croissant definitely NOT worth $12, which doesn’t include a side. Also there’s one little piece of egg. Disappointing.

Great service, good selection, tasty food. Keep it simple with a ham and cheese sandwich or go a bit more complex with a Croque Monsieur. They have limited seating for dine in, however, I had no difficulties in finding a seat to enjoy. They offer free refills on your coffee and also have free water (and fruit-infused water) if you are dining in as well. The food reminded me of France. Not that I'm saying this place is an amazing French restaurant, however, it does mirror a nice French cafe. Apparently Saveurs du Monde Cafe is a chain, but I won't hold it against them and neither should you!

A beautiful cafe in a lovely and quiet part of the city right near the hospitals. The quiche was crisp and flavorful. The blueberry danish tasted amazing and thankfully it was too much to eat at once so I will have it again later! 🤤

Went there for light dinner because it was walkable from our hotel. Authentically French. Much better than I expected. High quality and reasonable prices. It was nearly empty on a weeknight even though they have a bar and happy hour. I think this place would be a top choice for brunch.

We came to town for the SEWE festival and stayed nearby Saveurs du Monde. I stopped in each morning for coffee and breakfast. The cafe has fresh baked pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and a nice selection of coffee. The pastries were fantastic and fresh. The coffee was tasty and they were happy to make it how I asked. We will absolutely be back when we come back to town!

Everything we had was amazing. The espresso and pastries. The atmosphere is chic but inviting. It has lots of windows and light. Indoor and outdoor seating. The service was very friendly and helpful.

Went here for brunch with a friend! This is truly a French cafe, from the pastries to the wonderful French music that plays. Exceptional breakfast and pastries to select from so you won't be disappointed. Great customer service and seating area. They have a little robot that brings your food to your table! Will return when I go downtown!

Delicious classic croissant - even though it was near closing and past morning breakfast hours. Seriously good, fresh and friendly, prompt service.

Great service, per usual. Blueberry scone was delicious!! Perfectly sweet and just the right amount of blueberries. It has a sugar crust on top that adds a little crunch to it, just *chefs kiss. Macchiato is served the real way -- espresso, little bit of steamed milk, & foam. Don't expect a cup filled with milk ha. Plethora of pastries, coffee, and treats. Very nice, calm place to do work or meet.

Went here for brunch and I was really impress with their pastries and food selections! The lady behind the counter was so sweet and friendly. She brought sweet pup treat for mu friend's dog and she even accomodate us to sit inside (my friend's dog is a small dog). I really like the inside of the restaurant , I love the hanging plants and the inside is very spacious. I had chocolate croissant, nutella eclair, and rhocos (its like fancy and delicious reese cup) they all so delicous. My friend ordered their french toast and it was delish too. We also ordered coffee late and machiato and they were perfect! I will deffinetly coming back to try other pastries :)

This is a regular must visit on every trip to Charleston for my family! The coffee & breakfast is beyond compare, the staff helpful & the pastry case renders one speechless! Also- the best hot chocolate we've ever tasted!

Delicious and off the beaten path. My partner and I came in for a late breakfast and each had a quiche, which were wonderful. I also ordered a waffle with topping and fruit, and was pleasantly surprised by the portion, and especially the lightness of the waffle. It was the perfect mix to keep me full until dinner. Tables are bus your own, but the space was beautiful, well lit, and quiet. Would absolutely go back.

Such a great experience dining here! The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The food is also delicious and their indoor space accommodates large crowds which is a lovely perk. Thank you again!

I was missing the French café back home in Arizona so my husband did some research and found this little café in Charleston! We stopped by mid-morning and it was the perfect time to visit. We ordered and had our brunch within minutes of sitting down. The apricot danish was delicious- it was warm and melted in my mouth. My husband ordered the french toast with strawberries and chocolate sauce. He stated that the French café back home served better french toast but this was still pretty good. The café had live plants strewn throughout so the atmosphere was cute and welcoming.

Always a delicious meal and sincere service from interesting staff. The ambiance at this bistro is relaxing and conducive to special moments.

I needed coffee and a quick bite before getting on the road for the day...but I don't like fast food. So by accident I found this spot near my hotel... I was in the same area earlier in the week for a mani/pedi and hadn't seen this spot...but the location, the quick service and crispy croissant were just what I needed. I don't know that all the fillings in the croissant were fantastic, but they were good enough and HOT. I like my not food HOT. I don't know that the serve yourself coffee was what I was expecting or hoping for, but I was able to get it quickly and sit outside while I waited for the rest of my meal. I had a number on my table, and quite quickly they brought me my classic croissant. I ate it and finished my coffee and was able to just up and leave. So for the convenience and the hot meal, it's a strong 4! I don't know how French it is. I'd come back and try some other items.

The food is so good, fusion of French and Mediterranean cuisine simply makes the food taste 10X's better. It's The service that really makes it better than most other places in Charleston, and the the Ambiance of the food captured by the chef along with staff are absolutely amazing making this (5) star restaurant that I love coming back to, especially when you have a great meal with lots of delicious foods makes all of my dreams come true.

Great coffee and the toast salmon (salted cold not hot)! The atmosphere was amazing with a walk after across the street at the park.

I thought I had previously left a review, but perhaps I did not. The food was highly average and my aunt and I both felt like we've had sandwiches and Paninis at Panera that were equally as good. We went in at lunchtime and they were not busy. I think the thing that annoyed us the most was the person who took our order asked us if we wanted "fruit or chips" with our sandwich, so we chose the fruit. After we sat down and we were looking at our receipt, we were wondering why our lunch was $60 for two sandwiches and two iced teas. And then we see that they charged extra for the fruit like four or five dollars per serving. Price on food are already high enough that I don't like it when I feel like I'm being gamed to drive the ticket price up. There is a subtle difference between asking a customer if you would like to "add fruit or chips", versus would you "like fruit or chips" with your sandwich? Even the intonation can suggest 1) it comes with it versus 2) it's an add on. She clearly made it sound like it came with it or we wouldn't have even ordered it. When she brought the food, I inquired as to the extra charge on the side and she said "oh no it doesn't come with it. Everything is all a cart here." So I told her that she should tell her customers that when they're placing the order, not imply that it comes with it. She just said sorry and walked away. The right thing to do at that point would've been to take the fruit and offer to refund us. We could say "don't worry about" it or "yes, thank you". Overpriced, average, will not be back.

I was on a short trip to Charleston and was staying at the Marriott right next door. Looking for breakfast, Saveurs came up as the closest cafe. I'm super happy we stopped in. With greenery and sunburst chandeliers adorning the ceiling, there is a trendy and modern ambiance right when you walk in. I had a chai latte (very good) and my fiancé had a coffee (also very good). We split a croquet croissant for breakfast, which was delicious; it came with a side of fruit and the plate had decorative garnish (a nice touch). Our server was extremely personable and friendly, and it wasn't too busy. Overall, an awesome experience and definitely recommend checking it out!

We ordered at 12:10 PM. It is 12:55 PM and we still do not have our four sandwiches. There was only three people in the entire establishment the entire time we've been waiting. Luckily, we had great conversation which kept us entertained for 35 minutes until we asked, "Are we gonna get our food?" From what I understand, the owner was in store and didn't even offer any reconciliation for our wasted time. After I eat the food, I will say whether I believe you should come here or not.

Pastries are as close to France as they come...flaky and amazing! Coffee was good! Service was fast. Great ambience and great find! Check it out!

The food was, Amazing!!! Ordered a Le Jardin panini and a keish, would rate the panini a 10/10 and the keish 10 too. If you get the mushroom soup, ADD SALT. The service was amazing, their very patient and helpful. Very cozy even though a bit dirty still great(lunch ambiance)

Absolutely delicious food and coffee! Fantastic service! I recommend trying them out, you won't regret it!

The downtown cafe lacks the food quality, service and ambience of the Mt Pleasant location. I was with three women who had all been to the Mt P location before and we all agreed that we wouldn't be back.

The only thing saving this review from the one star required is the food! I had a fabulous crepe and the croissant was also good. Unfortunately they were out of a lot of drink options so I didn't get to have a drink. But, The location and space is convenient to where we were staying at the Holiday Inn. The service here is AWFUL! I don't know if it's just this city but this restaurant was no different, the attitude of Erik behind the counter was like we shouldn't even be there along with the dirty looks that were given to other customers that ordered before us. If you are going to be the face of the company the least you can do is be a good human being.. I would take my business elsewhere.

Tasty crepe and cool robot delivery. A little slower than Americans are accustomed to but very good food.

Really enjoy their food especially bakery! It's always worth a trip. One of the best in Charleston

I ordered quiche and it was overbaked, tasteless and dry-very unappetizing to look at. My friend had a chocolate croissant which was dry with very little chocolate filling. I like the open ambiance but don't appreciate having dogs hanging out inside the cafe. Staff members were very nice.

We were so excited to try this place out. Had looked at the menu beforehand and wanted to split one of their giant croissants. When we arrived the counter person said they only have those randomly and it's "hit or miss" to get one. Super disappointing but we ordered pastries and an avocado toast. The pastries tasted old and the avocado toast looked interesting but was vey odd combination of flavors a top a huge chunk of untoasted bread. While it seems like they are going for a French vibe the entire cafe felt like I was sitting in a nail salon in Los Angeles Also it's never a good sign when the cook is wearing a shirt from another restaurant.

Really cute little cafe in downtown Charleston. I ordered the pain au pecan and almond. It was really good! Get it warmed up! The dough was flaky and buttery and it had a lot of pecans and almonds on top. I also tried some of the quiche Lorraine. It was the best quiche I've ever had! The bacon bits were nice and smoky and the center was very creamy. Service was great as well!

Really enjoyed the food and the ambiance. Dinner seems like a slower time than usual so service was great. Recommend this lovely little piece of Paris anytime of day.

Love the place. Our galettes were perfect. Friendly service and tasty food. Opera cake is just superb.

The superb coffee and crispy galettes were the highlight of our stay at the nearby Marriott. Galettes are crispy, savory buckwheat crepes, a specialty of the Bretagne region of France, and these are the only good ones I've found anywhere else.

Stopped in hoping this place had breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. Inviting atmosphere, quick and friendly service, and a tasty croque croissant. I felt so welcome and can't wait to return and try the pastries.

Indifferent staff, unclean environment, disappointing coffee. I would not recommend.

Discovered this gem for breakfast the first morning of a trip to Charleston. After the first visit I decided it would be breakfast every morning. As you enter the cafe the glass display cases you pass on the way to the counter are full of mouth watering treats and pastries. Everything I tried tasted even better than it looked. Three mornings of breakfasts and one evening's dessert and it was all excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. They recognized us by our second visit and were happy to take a few moments to answer questions when we were selecting dessert. If you are in the area I highly recommend stopping in for great coffee and treats.

my husband ordered a good turkey blt. but both soups were lukewarm--for a late lunch at 1pm. and the avocado terrine--I don't even think they used fresh avocado? perhaps it's silly of me to assume they would, but the result was a sour tasting avo mush on toast. they tried using the robot server to deliver--and tables were covered in coffee and Nutella during a slow time of day. I was disappointed because I'd read good things .

A short walk from the Marriott and good reviews drew us there for a light dinner. The sandwiches and salads were wonderful and the desserts were superb! We highly recommend the pecan tart. A bonus for some might be that there are many gluten free items.

what a nice place! Spacious inside and a lot of selections reminding of Paris France. Excellent foods. Thoughtful service. I love this neat and hip place. Regrettful that I didn't explore this area sooner. Very relaxing and quiet place to enjoy coffe, lunch and sweets. Bacame a huge fan at this first visit.

Nice to see the reassuring green that is Saveurs du Monde French Cafe & wine bar in Westedge. Located in the same complex as Publix & The Woodhouse Day Spa. Having frequented the original in Seaside MP and also BelleHall MP it was nice to finally try the Westedge location. As expected it met its standards and then some. We sat outside in the comfy green chairs enjoying the sunshine, watching the world go by. Drinking coffee and partaking in some decadent pastries. What more could you you ask for. I loved that, in this very busy area of the Medical District, a parking garage exists in the WestEdge building and the first two hours are free, with plenty of spaces!! So go and support local while at the same time enjoying exquisite French Fare presented impeccably. I love Saveurs du Monde.. you will too.

This place was a pleasant surprise! I stumbled across this spot based on others reviews and I am so happy I did. It was a short walk from our hotel and the customer service was nothing short of fantastic. There was no one behind us in line so we could take our time viewing the menu and bakery. I went with the french toast with berries and it was TO DIE FOR. They make their french toast in house and it is nothing like I have ever had. I was tempted to also get a bakery itme, but the FT filled me up! I was very happy with this stumble and wish I lived local to go back!

Absolutely love this place! The food has such amazing flavor and is put together so well! The atmosphere is so relaxing and refreshing. It's definitely a must if you're downtown. It's right next to the publix and if you park in the garage it's 2 hour free parking so you have no excuse! There's also breakfast!

Really love this cute and convenient cafe located over in Westedge in Downtown Charleston. The crew was extremely friendly, and the pastries were delicious. I ordered a dozen macarons, along with a couple of cheese danishes, and they were delightful. Everything was moist and flavorful- not dried out like pastries you find at some bakeries. I can't wait to go back and try some more off their menu! ...and definitely getting some more pastries and desserts.

A wonderful evening with friends. The bar is cozy and comfortable, the food great and the the desserts to die for. The Chef Flo and Server Niyah took excellent care of our crowd. Highly recommended.

Went for lunch during a conference. Walked in and able to order promptly, but 50 minutes later still hadn't received our food. Went up to the counter to ask and she said it was "on it's way", but it was clear that she had not put in the orders for any of the three of us. Got our food shortly thereafter. The crepe was deemed delicious, but the two sandwiches were only okay... definitely not worth the nearly hour wait. Worse, there was no apology or any attempt to rectify the situation.

Espresso had excellent flavor, the service was friendly, overall a great place to have a morning coffee.

We went on a Saturday morning and to be fair if it was the cashier's first day with no training I would have understood the horrible service. If she had training then she needs a new job. With every order she stared at the screen like she was watching a movie. First order was quiche and espresso, second order was hazlenut latte and 2 macarons and 3rd order was a large cafe au lait and a pastry. After about 10 minutes to take the order we were given a number and we had a seat. Five minutes later we received the quiche. 10 more minutes we got the macarons. 5 more minutes and we went to the counter and asked for the pastry. 5 more minutes we got the espresso and were told they were out of Hazlenut. Another 5 minutes and I went to the counter again to ask about the large coffee and was handed a paper cup and was then told I had to serve myself which I then said that would have been nice to know a half hour ago to which she started crying. TBH the pastry was good!

Fresh good food. Love the buckwheat crepes and quiches. Tidy and clean area with real plants everywhere. Friendly environment

This place is an absolute gem. It was close to our hotel and we needed some quick breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. We had the breakfast croissant with egg, cheese and bacon and it was phenomenal. Perfectly cooked eggs, and the fruit on the side was refreshing. The pastries were delicious and fresh as well. The service was quick and it was a great place to cool off

Busy with terrible customer service and not enough help from the team and the coffee person doesn't know how to make it happen find another place to get your coffee and drink and breakfast from somewhere else

food was alright however service was very strange as they told me they were out of what i had ordered well after i had placed the order and gave me a much cheaper substitute without price adjustment and felt the need to remind us multiple times about their closing time despite us coming in well before then
