Came in to check out this spot in downtown Summerville. Street Parking. Cute lil spot. All kinds of doors. Lunch in the sunroom was good. Good healthy side options. Good food. Flies keeping things lively! Pics of salmon w/ M&C & kale & a Turkey wrap. Will be back to try some other dishes. 😃

Just wonderful! Brought my vegan wife here and options were plenty. I also tried gluten free macaroni and it surprised me. We will definitely be back.

So glad to have found this place for lunch while in town for a work trip! Fresh, tasty & healthy fare. Helpful, kind staff. Lovely indoor/outdoor seating area as well, filled with tons of natural light. Free parking garage right next door too.

The Gathering in Summerville, South Carolina was a delicious experience. The food was wonderful and I look forward to going there again.
The staff was friendly. The food was fresh.
We sat outside on a beautiful day...it was a win, win, win!!!

Kayla was so great. The food was perfect! Great prices it's more than vegetables ... they also have great protein options. My husband got the steak and it was cooked perfectly. I got the Buddha bowl. I can't wait to try everything on the menu

Surprisingly good with nice fresh veggies, ordered four plates today. (1)The green goddess bowl was my fav, served warm, with a very nice balanced flavor. (2)Teriyaki bowl with chicken was tasty, if a tiny bit salty (still less salty than all the local hibachi places), the mushrooms were the best part. (3)The avocado toast had fresh tomatoes and a lot of capers. (4)The steak wrap was served cold, the horseradish was good, it came with soup or salad (tomato soup pictured). All and all we would visit again. It was a bit pricey, as the proteins are an add-on to the bowls, but worth it for the fresh veggies and general good quality/flavor. The indoor seating was a bit stuffy today in the cooler rainy weather since the AC was not running and they did not have any fans.

Summerville needed a place like this!
Finally feels like I have a place to go when I'm trying to be more health conscious.
The tomato soup tasted like it was just out of their garden. The wrap was a bit dry and could have used a bit more sauce. The sante Fe bowl was super flavorful but that shrimp were overcooked.
First time here and I'm definitely going to be back.

What a delicious meal. My wife is vegan and I am vegetarian. The menu was fantastic and the food was fresh and plenty flavorful. So good! We will be back.

I’m so excited to find this restaurant. It checks all the boxes for vegan entrees, care taken for allergies when preparing food, sustainable practices and a friendly clean happy environment. They have wonderful, delicious options for everyone. I’m with my non vegan boyfriend and he’s very pleased with his entree. I ordered the curry and he ordered the green goddess. Both were very delicious. I am going to get the tiramisu to go. Never had it buts it’s vegan as well. They offer beer on tap and mimosas for breakfast. I would highly recommend stopping in if you are in the Charleston area. It’s well worth the trip. I was served by Jason who was very kind and knowledgeable. They offer online take out for those needing a quick meal. Check it out.

An exceptional selection of vegan and gluten free options. The food is light but filling, it's made quickly and tastes great! The building is odd with multiple doors to reach indoor seating but it's comfortable and the people are happy to help!
Kimberly Tissot
Delicious! Hands down, the best food in Summerville! Beer, wine, plus food that makes you feel good! Highly recommended!

Delicious food with a great atmosphere. Glad they came to Summerville. Many vegetarian and vegan options

As soon as I took my first bite I knew instantly that the food was prepared with love and care. It tasted as if it was homemade. Incredible!
Hanover Yaad
I loved my curry here. The food tastes like real food and not the salt, sugar and sauces that too many other restaurants use. I appreciate the wild caught shrimp, whole foods and vegetables. Portions are too small for the money. I spent a lot of money and left hungry but absolutely LOVED all my food. I will be back.
Marla Luster
I thought the food was really tasty here. I got the Buddha Bowl after the person at the register said the bowls were good. I got salmon as the protein. I ate a couple of bite before I remembered to take pictures. The person eating with me got the Panang curry with tofu and it was also good. The Gathering Cafe seems similar to CAVA, which is also a good health food restaurant.
Sean Fiumi
This has the feel of a coffee house, but a large eclectic food menu with something for everyone. Gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, carnivores--it's got it all. All that said, my Buddha Bowl was really good. It came with a lemon tahini sauce that was so delicious. It's also worth mentioning that the staff here is VERY accommodating with custom order/substitutions on their menu.
Oh, and as a side note, the ice machine at the drink center serves chewable ice!
Molly Kelly
The BEST gluten free food I’ve ever had!! As someone with celiac, it was such a joy to have so many options to choose from and everything was cooked to perfection. This was the first time I’ve ever had mac and cheese at a restaurant and it was SUPERB.
Coryn James
Such a cute little place! Came here for breakfast, got the spinach and feta frittata. Amazing! Loved the atmosphere too. Great service. Will be back.
Pamela Browning
We had a wonderful delicious breakfast here this morning. The food was very tasty and healthy, the service was fast, and our waitress was very courteous and friendly. Highly recommend!

Nate is an incredibly talented and creative chef, who delivers consistently delectable, innovative, and nutrient-dense menu offerings. He is also an incredibly kind and gracious human being. Because of Nate's holistic approach to healthy nutrition and life, hospitality and customer service are paramount, which reminds me of the Charleston and West Ashley I grew up in.
My mom and I are regulars at The Gathering, and we look forward to creative specials, as well the regular menu. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner have all been equally delicious. The "Be an Artist" section allows me to mix/match healthful veggie options and add on various protein options if I want.
From a professional perspective (I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist [RDN] with a PhD in Nutrition), The Gathering is the #1 Charleston restaurant I believe best embodies healthy eating, as the substantial menu boasts a diverse selection of low-calorie and nutrient-dense offerings, with a clear emphasis on plant-based dietary patterns, but also with plenty of great non-vegetarian protein options too. And great taste is never compromised. Healthy never tasted this good!
Highly recommend!!
Keli Tolley
Food is phenomenal, service is laid back but on point. Every time I go the menu is fresh and new. Every time I try something new, I'm never disappointed!
Rebekah Galloway
Amazing gluten free menu and great people!! Will definitely be back!!
Debbie Daniels
I had the salmon at the Gathering Cafe and it was delicious, along with the smashed red potatoes and the green beans. The homemade ginger cake was enough for 2 to share and was a great way to finish our meal. Excellent food and excellent service with very reasonable prices! Will definitely be back again soon!

The Gathering Café is on the top of my list of favorite places to eat in Charleston. In fact, I ate there last night (6/12) and had the eggplant parmesan (a fairly recent addition to the menu). It was the best I have ever eaten and the portions are soooooooooooo generous I am usually able to take half of it home and eat it again the next day - but don't tell the chef cause I don't want him rethinking portion sizes. Actually, if the truth be told, I set half of it aside because I wanted to try one of the new deserts. The greek yogurt gelato (with a fruit swirl) was absolutely sinful. If you have not tried this place out, you don't know what you are missing.
Leah Morgan
We went here for the first time today and had a really great experience. I fell in love with the atmosphere immediately. Really cute and relaxed, but still really nice. The food was excellent. Got the poached eggs (Eggs Benedict), apple French toast, mimosas, and coffee. Our server was super nice and attentive despite having several tables. I will definitely be coming back! I can't wait to try everything else on the menu!
Patricia Chery
I went for lunch today for the first time, wow, I couldn't be more impressed! Not only the service was spectacular, but the food.... definitely a new favorite and already looking forward to another visit when I am in that part of town!!! <3
Todd S Walsh
Amazing food and great presentation. The chef really knows what he's doing. Now if you could just open an Asheville NC location lol. Our server was so awesome also, we can't wait to come back.
Nathan White
It's so good! Love the menu choices, the price is super reasonable for the quality. You will be happy you ate here.
Lisa Carda Pearce
We've been here for dinner a few times. Delicious seafood, steaks and side dishes. Fresh and creative cuisine. ��
Angela Hope Judy
I'm here almost every Sunday, and always introducing my friends to it! Jenn and India are warm and welcoming. I love the Be an Artist section of their menu. There are so many delicious vegetable and grains to choose from to create a different combination on every visit, you can add a protein if you wish and it's still very affordable! And now they have Almond milk for your coffee too!!!
Amanda McGowan
I eat here almost every day. Nathan is an amazing chef and has a killer kitchen staff as well. I will come back for this amazing food even after I leave Charleston and move to Asheville. It has a charming and welcoming touch and keeps customers coming back for more. So much love!
Joan Hoffman
I was visiting Charleston this weekend and had lunch at The Gathering Café. My friend Gail Martin Corbett gave me a few choices. She said this one was healthy. It sure was and delicious. I had the chicken salad sandwich on wheat. It had apples and grapes in the salad. Very good! The next time I am back in Charleston, I will go there!
Renate Friason
I ordered the Mahi Mami special with a side of brown rice and roasted Brussels sprouts & red grapes. Everything was DELICIOUS! Service was timely and courteous. Will return!
