What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Great little coffee and dessert spot dowtown. With in walking distance to everything. We ordered espresso, caramel latte, tiramisu, oatmeal bar and crème brûlée. It was a busy evening so it took a while for the coffee, it the desserts were very good and fresh. The Crème Brûlée was one of the best I’ve had. Very creamy with a thin layer of crunch at the top. Sometimes there’s such a thick layer it over powers the custard. Not here, very well balanced. And it had real vanilla beans! That’s when you know you have real crème brûlée. The oatmeal bar tasted just like my Moms. With so many coffee joints downtown, I think this place has the best desserts."
"The reviews were great and they had gluten-free options so my daughter selected it for a few birthday treats. The presentation of the desserts was great so we ordered several items and were seated. The water in the flower arrangements at the table was very cloudy and there were notes left to customers about how long they could sit. It wasn't very inviting. I didn't enjoy any of the desserts. They were bland in flavor, missing the right amount of sweetness, and a few items tasted a little sour. We each took a bite or two then threw all of the items away. I wouldn't recommend this location nor would I return. Having thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Europe, this place evokes none of its essence."
"This place is great! I ordered the carrot cake, which was wonderful. They have many options that range from cake, cannolis, croissants, bread pudding, and much more."
"Old Europe is a cute spot to sit and enjoy dessert in Greenville. The atmosphere has a nice charm, and it’s definitely a cozy place to relax with a sweet treat. I tried the cheesecake and cupcakes, which were good, but they felt like they were missing a little something to make them stand out. The staff also wasn’t particularly friendly, which took away from the overall experience a bit. Still, it’s worth a visit if you’re in the mood for dessert and want a pleasant place to sit for a while."
"Old Europe is a cozy and charming spot with amazing desserts and coffee. The pastries are fresh, authentic, and beautifully made—especially the cakes and tortes. The coffee is rich and pairs perfectly with their sweets. The atmosphere feels warm and inviting, perfect for a casual meet-up or a quiet evening treat. A must-visit if you love European-style desserts in Greenville!"
"So, this is sad to report, but the truth is essential. My wife and I have had desserts from here multiple times. I am a fan of bread pudding, from..."
