Overall: A delicious yet expensive lunch.The good: The sandwiches were absolutely delicious. The focaccia bread might as well have been from Italy. The sandwich was Thanksgiving-themed, with cranberry, turkey, stuffing, dressing, and more. It definitely hit the spot and I felt full afterwards. It's nice to be able to sit outside with the tables and enjoy the neighborhood.The not-so-good: Expensive. The sandwiches were great, but charging for as much as they did is a bit much. The prices aren't on the menu so unless you explicitly asked for prices you are bound to get sticker shock. They also took awhile to come out on a relatively normal lunch hour. The side pasta salad was small.

Plan to eat outdoors in the park seating across the small street. You order at a window. They have fresh and different food. Souo, sandwich and specials. Prices little higher, but the food is fresh and good. Great way to have lunch in a beautiful, charming setting in Mt. Pleasant on a lovely warm day in Charleston .

Food is amazing.. but 20$ for a small sandwich???? They are basically robbing people, it’s not a Michelin star restaurant where a 20$ sandwich is expected, it’s a neighborhood restaurant… they literally sell casseroles! I will only buy the goose once a year because it’s my favorite sandwich. Can’t imagine charging people that much for a sandwich that is smaller than a 6 inch publix sub! I recommend going to Joey Tomatos and getting their roast beef sandwich, it’s big, delicious, and half the price.

The roast beef sammy is my absolute favorite sandwich! Any form of potato salad they are serving will be amazing. One of my favorite lunch spots to visit and sit in the courtyard!
Sandwiches are not the average and that’s a good thing. Good fare for lunch, haven’t done the take home and bake yet, but that looks interesting. Good ice cream spot surprisingly.

Stopped in for the first time yesterday to try them out. I wanted to try a half sandwich/half salad combo but they wouldn’t do that with the buffalo shrimp wrap I had. I got the broccoli salad as my side which was a pretty small portion, but the wrap itself was substantial but had a lot of lettuce. The flavor was pretty good but it didn’t seem to be very evenly distributed with the sauces. Some bites were very dry and bland and others were good and flavorful. I would go back and try something different for sure. Not a bad first experience but I feel like they’re are better things than what I tried.

Got Shrimp wrap, 1/2 salad, side of mac n cheese. $28. Mac n cheese container less than half full and Bland. Not worth the $2.50! Shrimp wrap was just thrown together. Falling apart. Had to try to re-wrap myself, (not easy to do once its cut in half). Lastly the side fruit that came with the wrap only had tasteless melon. We used to like the place but come on! They have to at least TRY. Won't be back anytime soon. Plenty of other GOOD places for take out lunch in Mount Pleasant!!!

They charged us $3.50 for a Coke, and charged for a side of chips. We always get sides with no extra charge. They tried to charge for our turkey on the sandwiches! This place has gone downhill.
