Best Pastries in Sullivan's Island

"If in search of something a bit heartier, visit Village Bakery, just across the quaint East Cooper River. While Village Bakery harbors plenty of options for dessert, its sandwiches, soups, and salads are also good picks to try. Restaurant owner Sal Parco has also championed a handful of other successful individual favorites in the Mount Pleasant and Charleston areas."

"At this eatery on the locals’ end of Market Street, French chef Dominique Chantepie shows his years of experience in breakfast and lunch menus, offering everything from crèpes to paninis (try the Prosciutto di Paese!) alongside a gorgeous array of desserts."

"Super cute spot Baguette Magic offers carbs on carbs on carbs. Patrons rave about the recovery baguette — a hangover-curing combination of scrambled eggs, bacon, prosciutto, white cheddar, tomato jam, and arugula. For those in search of something sweet, check out the homemade Pop-Tarts or the chocolate croissant."

"Tucked-away shop Baguette Magic creates breads and croissants using traditional French methods. Baker Mathieu Richard's baguettes are often touted as the best in the Lowcountry."

"This small Society Street chocolate and pastry shop is truly authentic: the owner and artist, Christophe Paumer, was raised and trained in France as a third generation chocolatier and patissier. Visit Christophe Artisan Chocolatier-Patissier for hand-painted chocolate truffles, chocolate bars, favored chocolate pieces, pastry and even luxurious chocolate milkshakes as you stroll along King Street, or after a meal nearby. The dessert and sweet treat offerings change daily, and the display cases full of chocolates will make the shop feel almost like an art gallery."

"If you’re in the mood to make a good life decision, get a canelé. A specialty of the Bordeaux region of France, a canelé is a small rum cake with a dark, caramelized exterior and a soft custard center. Canelés are not overly sweet, and addictively good."

"As its name implies, Christophe Artisan Chocolatier would rather be known for its Charleston chocolates. But their French-pressed coffee and pastries are pretty amazing as well. Plus, their seating areas are cute both upstairs and in the outdoor area behind the building on Society Street, just off of lower King Street."

"This cozy shop sells their chocolates downstairs and has a small seating area upstairs. You’ll find chocolate bars and other handmade chocolates including truffles and hand-painted chocolates. Make sure to order some of their drinking chocolate as well!"

"Every sort of cake, pie, or tart can be found at Luckhaus & Brubaker. The pastry chef duo Robyn Luckhaus and Larry Brubaker specialize in whimsical cakes made to look like anything you can come up with. If you desire a baked good in the shape of an octopus, baseball player, or Elmo, they've got what you need."

"The Grand Bohemian Gallery features one of the most visually stimulating and exciting collections of artwork in all of Charleson. The collection consists of oil paintings, glasswork, wood, jewelry and sculptural work from both locally renowned and internationally acclaimed artists. Featured artists include Ali Launer, Amber Higgins, Donna Dowless, Elizabeth Nelson, and many more!"

"If you’re a fan of eclectic vibes, the Grand Bohemian is for you. The smallest hotel in the Kessler Collection, this place is all about art and design. The rooftop terrace at Grand Bohemian will treat you to neon lights and teal-colored furniture."

"The Grand Bohemian Gallery, located within the luxury hotels of The Kessler Collection, is one of the most eclectic and visually stimulating art galleries in the nation."

"With a premier collection of over 10,000 American works, the Gibbes Museum of Art promotes and protects Charleston's rich cultural heritage through a vibrant artistic lens."

"Showcasing the creativity of regional artists, the Museum Store features jewelry, gifts, books and specialty items that introduce art into everyday life."

"The Charleston Artist Collective is a web-based business that provides an avenue for local artists to grow their potential and to provide collectors, young or experienced, access to small pieces of affordable original art. Collectives are significant to the Artists' practice by providing a vehicle for combining inspiration, ideals and approaches. An innovator and leader in Charleston, South Carolina's vibrant visual arts scene, Allison Williamson is a nurturer of local talent and a nationally respected authority on the exhibition and sales of original works of art."

"Address: 414 Whilden Street, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464Phone: (843) 936-2022Website. Downtown Charleston has numerous galleries, but you’ll find a more curated selection of art at Charleston Artist Collective in Mount Pleasant. From smaller, more affordable pieces, to larger scale works, the studio strictly showcases local artists and their original creations."

"With both classic and eclectic topping choices, Fam’s pizza is a great choice for those who need the comfort of a little cheesy, carby goodness. The pizza joint delivers throughout the Charleston area, but if you choose to do curbside pickup instead, you can get discounted growler fills of its most popular brews. In addition to normal, baked pies, you can get pizza kits -- with fresh dough, cheese, your choice of toppings, and instruction card -- so you can make pizza at home."

"Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account. This may sound cheesy, but we would love your nomination for Best Pizza for the Charleston City Paper Best Of Awards. https://www.famularis.com/bestof : @jaredmdean"

"Born from strong friendship, brotherhood, and a passion for pizza. With their 20+ years of pizza-making experience, they set out to create the best possible pizza."

"Featuring a large outdoor patio, live music inside and out and an incredible selection of flavors from the wood-fired kitchen and our 27 taps."

"The latest addition to Brooks Reitz and Tim Mink’s restaurant group, Melfi’s is a clubby Italian restaurant kitty-corner to their other spots, Leon’s and Little Jack’s Tavern. Melfi’s specializes in simple pasta plates and creative pizzas like the Vinny Vongole, topped with thinly-shaved pancetta and clams, and the Proscuitto Party, topped with hand-pulled mozzarella and blanketed in proscuitto di parma."

"This modern Italian restaurant is a cheerful, all grown-up spot that never seems to take itself too seriously, drawing on both old world and new world influences for an appealing menu of pastas, pizzas and salads."

"Clubby, classic Italian restaurant in downtown with fresh pasta, salads, larger plates, and Roman-ish thin crust pizza. Intimate for 2 or a proper adults evening on the town."
