Lowcountry Fresh Market & Cafe is a neighborhood market with a cafe and scratch bakery at 303 Bleecker Street in Bluffton, in Washington Square on the west side of Buckwalter. It stocks food from Lowcountry farms, fishermen and makers, so it is a good first stop for a rental-house kitchen and a pleasant place for breakfast.

Lowcountry Fresh Market & Cafe Menu

What the Market Sells

The shelves and cases hold locally grown produce, farm-raised beef, pork, chicken and turkey (some ground and made into sausage in house), wild-caught local shrimp and fish, cheeses and charcuterie, wine and craft beer, and coffee, tea, ice cream and snacks from regional makers. The bakery turns out bread, bagels, pastries and cakes, and its coffee has a following.

The Cafe

The cafe serves breakfast and lunch: breakfast sandwiches, pancakes and plates in the morning, then sandwiches such as the Holy Cow (house roast beef, provolone and garlic aioli on sourdough) and seasonal salads. The make-to-order menu changes and is sometimes paused, so check the cafe menu or call (843) 815-2780 before you plan a meal around it. The cafe and a screened porch host private events, and the market runs ticketed dinners, cooking classes and catering.

Hours and More Places to Shop

The market is open 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. For the big supermarkets, see Bluffton grocery stores. For more breakfast spots, see breakfast in Bluffton.

What shoppers say

Customers come for the bakery and cafe: fresh bread, bagels, pastries and some of the best coffee in the area, plus a breakfast menu people rave about. The market stocks local products, and groups have held private parties there. The complaints are about consistency: menu favorites come and go, one shopper found expired goods on the grocery shelves, and a lobster roll was skimpy until the store made it right.
