3 egg burrito for the win! Where have you been my entire life. Insanely good! Eggs done to perfection, pickled onions for the acid, potatoes, bit of spicy undertone, cilantro….

We came here on a Saturday for brunch and had a little bit of a WAIT. It's a counter service restaurant and seating is kind of scarce and FCFS. If you hang out long enough, you'll get a seat. Food: We ordered the stacked avocado toast and the yogurt bowl. Both were tasty and fresh. If you're REALLY hungry, the yogurt bowl may need some accompaniment. The avocado toast had a lot going on, but it actually worked well. The yogurt wasn't overly sweet and for most it's satisfying. Service: The interaction was just with the counter service person. They were friendly and quick. Ambiance: It's a cozy space that can feel constrained but it's not a huge deal. The colors and the decoration are all pretty cool. Overall we enjoyed it here. We prefer table reservation but that's not always feasible or realistic. If you come here on a weekend, expect a little wait, but the food and the service were great. I can see us coming back again.

Breakfast burrito cured my hangover + the miso brown sugar latte was so good, 10/10! I like that the coffee was coffee forward with a hint of creamer!

The best coffee and breakfast place!! The 3 egg burritos is just amazing. The lemon coffee and upside down coffee are must try. We had a 30 min wait and tables are fast occupied. Really great outdoor seating! Their almond milk is house made so a definite try.

Definitely my go 2 place for breakfast here in Charleston! From the amazing staff at this location in CHS makes me keep coming back! From Mark the general manager and Mark the head chef to all the staff have done an amazing job with going above and beyond with the customer service they provide! The Food is amazing every time I eat here. Consistent through and through! I highly recommend coming and dining here! You won't be disappointed at all. Breakfast sandwich, BLT, chocolate chip cookie, and the avocado toast are a few of my favorite things and a must try!

We went early (~8 am), and the service was so fast and food was amazing. I got the bananas foster latte and it was soo good. It seemed more like a quick dine place which was just what we wanted. I definitely recommend!

The daily has always been one of my favorites in Charleston! I went both Saturday & Sunday this weekend and got the 3 egg burrito on gluten free corn tortillas, the avocado toast on gluten free sourdough with egg and bacon, and a pumpkin Americano. Insane. The pumpkin is the best I’ve ever had- it tastes just like fall and it is sweet without being overpowering or too sweet. We were able to grab a table outside and our food came out extremely fast. Such a great spot for a casual bite to eat or coffee after a good workout or a long run downtown! Will be back again and again and again.

Food was awesome. Very clean and very tasty too. Very affordable as well. I definitely got my bang for my buck. Had the Avocado Toast on Fresh Sourdough with Chicken Shawarma. And the Chicken Shawarma Hummus Bowl both days. Very friendly staff as well.

We had a great experience at The Daily Cafe - King St. I ordered the breakfast pita and it was really good. We were a big group, and the staff treated us very well. The outdoor seating area was also really nice and relaxing.

Cute cafe. Limited seating. You order at the counter and then can take out or they will bring it to your table. Very friendly staff. Excellent coffees and smoothies. The avocado bowl was very fresh and delicious
