Sightsee Shop

Such a spotlessly clean cut business! Great coffee and very nice surf style shop! Love the historic building. Friendly barista! Follow me @holycityfitblonde on Instagram for all of place to go in Charleston

We drive up from Savannah to Charleston and the first thing we do is go to Sightsee. Their espresso tonic is one of a kind. Can’t wait to see them at their new location.

The coffee SHOP of dreams. Emphasis on shop, because this chic spot is way more than just coffee - with a curated market of goods to browse. I was completely sucked in. Walked out with a handful of goodies + a smile (the folks working were super sweet) and enjoyed a delicious brew at one of their outdoor tables. If only passing through Charleston, definitely go out of your way to stop at Sightsee Shop!

Adorable little retro coffee shop giving surf 🏄‍♀ shop vibes. I got an iced dirty chai and the espresso was good as well.

The best place to get coffee in Charleston. The coffee is obviously outstanding, but the atmosphere, retail (the coziest sweater I own is from Sightsee!), community events, and super kind owners and staff all make this a truly special place.

I love the laidback surfer vibes of this cosy little coffee joint. Been a fan of their mobile VW bus at events around town and finally got a chance to check out Sightsee’s Shop. Great place with fun graphic tees, longboards, and coffee of course!

I ordered an iced chai with oat milk. Delish!
Sweet little shop and super friendly staff. Worth the trip!

This is such a cute little store + coffee shop combo. The workers are super friendly and the brown sugar poptart and cold brew were both delicious!

What a wonderfully quaint shop with such beach aesthetics. Friendly greetings and send-off’s, wonderful coffee, and absolutely beautifully curated decor makes this a stop not to miss. Also, killer branding.

Really great high quality coffee in a cute tucked away two-room bungalow. Loved the socal vibes, the colors, and all their brand merch. I'm not a huge coffee enthusiast so the beans themselves were probably a bit lost on me, but my coffee enthusiast friend said his pour over was excellent. Since they do a lot of specialty stuff though the line can take a while, and the place is quite small so it gets cramped quickly. There's only outside seating as well.

Sightsee is our very favorite Charleston coffee shop. The service provided is above and beyond every single time. It's also my go-to spot downtown for grabbing a thank you card or when I'm low on Everyday Oil (I'm pretty obsessed).

Delicious coffee and friendly service! Thanks to our barista’s recommendation we had a lovely day at the beach.

Sightsee is truly a bright spot in the Charleston community. Excellent coffee, kind, thoughtful staff, and an atmosphere where all feel welcome. Our most beloved neighborhood spot since the day it opened!

Specialty coffee lovers - this is the spot for you.
The shop is minimalist chic while promoting local artists, roasters, selling high quality to-go cups, and very cool private label merch.
The vibe is perfectly curated down to the last tiny detail, but it still feels easy and smooth. Both of the baristas were warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and made excellent cups of coffee.
On pour over, we had an anaerobic natural from Rwanda that only got sweeter as it cooled. It was light and fruity.
The Colombian espresso was nutty in the front and smooth in the back.
I usually can’t stand to drink out of paper, but I totally understand the space constraint of the adorable location. Both coffees stood out over the paper taste and next time I’ll definitely bring or buy my own cup.
Make sure you check out their custom made La Marzocco espresso machine - it is truly special.
Also worth noting - our VIP tickets to High Water festival were worth it when we saw a Sightsee truck and got a delicious ocean-side espresso on the a sleek white La Marzocco linea mini.

A must visit for both locals and visitors of Charleston! The espresso chai latte is my go to. This is a truly unique coffee shop run by passionate people. Go for the coffee, stay for the vibes.

The cappuccino was so good we got twice in the same day! The owners were friendly and informative. Highly recommend

Great coffee and the owners are super kind. Shop itself is a really beautiful space

Great coffee shop! Visited it on my trip to Charleston and really enjoyed it! The baristas were very friendly and the drinks were delicious!
