Hilton Head Social Bakery

So after dinner, we decided we needed something sweet. I found this bakery at Shelter Cove which I was surprised to find opened until 9 PM on a Wednesday evening. Its a little hard to find, but its in Harborside Building one and the entrance is dockside.

I was surprised that they had quite a few items left, but those were all the refrigerated ones. Daily baked goods were mostly gone although while we were there they were bagging Biscottis. My wife had a chocolate croissant and I had a Dark Cherry tart. Everything in the case was decorated nicely, sort of like you would find in a fancy pastry shop. Prices were just a little north of high with most items from 6 to 8 bucks.

We ate them after we got home and I thought the tart was tasty, but not the best I've ever had...would prefer more intense flavors. Nicely decorated. Wife loved the chocolate croissant. So minus one star for one item and 4 big stars for a very fancy pastry shop in good olde HHI.

You haven’t had a croissant until you’ve eaten here. My goodness. No superlatives do this place justice. Thank you for making me feel alive.

Best french bakery on the island! Coffee is delicious! Raspberry Macaron was perfect. We also had quiche which came with a fruit salad and was a very filling delicious breakfast! All of the pastries looked delicious! Highly recommend!

This hidden gem has fantastic coffee and the best hot chocolate! The pastries are to die for. Seriously delicious.

Amazing pastries and food that you can't find anywhere else! The staff are very friendly and the outside view is perfect.

Wow. Delicious mushroom asparagus quiche, lox, and matcha latte. The employees were just wonderful and nothing was over-sweetened or over-salted. Great outdoor seating, too!

If you don't get breakfast here while in Hilton Head, you're doing it wrong. Best place ever, and oh my gosh the quiche is to die for!! We absolutely loved it and the baked goods were so tasty. Highly recommend!!

Located on the harbor side of Shelter Cove Marina, the bakery is found once you park in the lot across the plaza and walk past the huge maritime sculpture toward the water. I was curious about its strange name until we entered the bakery snuggled in along the marina next to a seafood restaurant.

Bakery: delicious display of breakfast, lunch and dessert items, plus self-serve coffee bar. I can personally attest to the mouthwatering blueberry tart and banana bread pudding. Must return to try the breakfast quiche and grab a pastry-wrapped veg and meat-filled lunch treasure for the beach cooler.

Social Inside: friendly staff and warm cozy displays to make foodies rejoice.
Social Outside: long shaded counters with bar-height stools facing the harbor make this a spot to sit, sip and savor peaceful water views

The desserts here looked so amazing. Great view of the water and boats.

This is the best of the best in Hilton Head Island, Savannah and Charleston, believe me, you can't find a better place for having delicious food and pastries, cakes,coffee and employees are so cool always.Perfectvplace! LOVE IT!
