Built from Scratch in Beaufort

Every morning at Herban Market and Cafe begins the same way: our bakers arrive early to fill the kitchen with the smell of fresh bread and pastries. It's how we've always done things, and it's how we always will. We use only unbleached, non-bromated organic flour in everything we bake. No shortcuts, no substitutes. Every loaf, every croissant, every roll is made right here in our market, then served in our cafe alongside scratch-made breakfast and lunch. We believe food should be simple and honest. Real ingredients prepared by real people who care about what they're putting on your plate. That's not a slogan for us, it's a promise. Whether you're stopping in for a fresh-baked pastry with your morning coffee or sitting down for lunch by the Beaufort River, we hope you can taste the difference that real, honest food makes. That's what Herban Market and Cafe is all about.

Very nice quaint breakfast spot with a fantastic view of the Beaufort river. I ordered a club sandwich and it was delicious!

Nice local cafe. The Herban breakfast croissant is a must try. Almond croissants are amazing. Best to come early before baked goods sell out!

One of the few places in the US that truly knows pastry. Lovely staff, great ambiance, and a beautiful view of the river. A Beaufort jewel!
