What locals are saying
Christophe's West Ashley location draws loyal Charleston regulars who return repeatedly for the almond croissants, hand-painted truffles, macarons, and rich hot chocolate — all made by a genuine third-generation French chocolatier who imports chocolate directly from France. Praise is nearly universal for product quality and authenticity, though at least one notable review flags a brusque counter-staff interaction as a turn-off. The shop's rotating menu and limited hours (closed Monday–Tuesday) are minor friction points but rarely deter devoted fans.
