The Charleston City Guide

Just a short drive away from the barrier island of Isle of Palms, South Carolina - where we shot our Spring '23 campaign -  is an extraordinary place. Charleston boasts a rich history, vibrant food and arts scene, breathtaking architecture, and spectacular neighboring beaches. It's always a pleasure to visit, catch up with friends, and take in what the city has to offer. Explore our guide to the Holy City. 

LITTLE JACK'S TAVERN

TO EAT

Situated in a moody venue with nostalgic art, green and white checkered tablecloths, good music, and even better bartenders - the best burger of your life awaits. The Tavern Burger is simple yet sublime with American cheese and griddled onion, but it's the accouterment of the “tavern sauce” that takes it absolutely over the top. Paired with a side of warm garlic knots and Jack’s Rum Old Fashioned - this combination is a force to be reckoned with.

FIG

TO EAT

FIG, standing for Food Is Good, lives up to the name, but you’ll find each dish is better than good or even great - food at FIG is phenomenal. Situated in a beautifully modern bistro with a seasonal menu that places emphasis on sourcing locally, it’s always a pleasant surprise to learn what our friend, Chef Mike Lata, is cooking up. Book in advance and come hungry.

RODNEY SCOTT'S BBQ

TO EAT

Simply put, barbecue at Rodney Scott’s is a formative experience. Friend and pitmaster, Rodney Scott, has been in the pit cooking whole hogs since the ripe old age of 11, and it shows. There’s not a single cut of meat, side, or dessert that isn’t prepared to perfection. Get there early, bask in the glow of the disco ball hanging in the modest dining room, and order the catfish. An unassuming hero.

INDACO

TO EAT

Settled on bustling upper King Street, past the large, elegant wooden doors and into the heart of Indaco is a rustic Italian kitchen humming with happy diners. Hearty dishes of pasta, housemade salami, and cured meats abound, but the pièce de résistance? The wood-fired pizza. The spicy soppressata dripping in honey is not to be missed.

BIN 152

TO DRINK

Neighbor to our King Street shop in the heart of downtown is Bin 152. A cozy wine and cheese bar featuring an expansive wine menu with over 40 different wines by the glass and over 200 by the bottle. The wine, cheese, and charcuterie offering is impressive, yes, but the hand-painted chocolates and truffles might steal the show. Be sure to visit Bin 152’s sister restaurants, Chez Nous, and Malagón.

BAR 167

TO DRINK

Bar 167, sister bar to the (incredibly) famous 167 Raw Oyster Bar, can do good drinks and savory bites all by itself. Rivaling its big sister in interiors, too, you’ll feel like you’re dining oceanside in Santorini with its lit-from-within agate bar top, Cypress walls, and crisp white accents. Find a spot on the patio, order the Jungle Cat, and sip slowly.

BILLY REID KING STREET SHOP

TO DO

We’d be remiss if we didn’t recommend spending some time in our shop, located at 150 King Street. Our building dates back to 1865 and is a distinct little jewel box situated on lower King amongst galleries and antique shops. Explore the neighborhood, visit with our shop team, enjoy our curation of art and antiques, preview our latest collection, and let us pour you a drink if you’re so inclined.

THE COMMODORE

TO DO

An iconic jazz club for locals and visitors alike, The Commodore is a lively spot of, what feels like, a bygone era. A house band of jazz musicians plays well into the morning against a rich, red backdrop enveloped in velvet curtains while the bartenders work diligently behind the bar serving up craft cocktails. Go early for a laidback feel, and stay late for the dancing.

CHARLESTON RIVERDOGS

TO DO

As baseball enthusiasts, it should come as no surprise that we recommend experiencing a game while in town. The Charleston RiverDogs are a Minor League Baseball team of the Carolina League and make their home in Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park. The games draw a crowd, and although the stadium is modest in size, it makes it that much easier to try and spot Bill Murray, who is part-owner and the “Director of Fun.”

ZERO GEORGE HOTEL

TO STAY

Tucked away in the French Quarter is a dreamy boutique hotel named Zero George. The property is comprised of restored homes that date back to the early 1800s, boasting quaint verandas, courtyards that exude Charleston charm, thoughtfully modern interiors, exceptional service, and a restaurant (Zero Restaurant + Bar) that is worth writing home about.

THE DEWBERRY

TO STAY

The Dewberry is a mid-century modern masterpiece that warrants all the attention it garners. Formerly a federal building, the hotel has been restored and reimagined - making it the sanctuary it is today. Complete with a lobby bar (The Living Room), rooftop bar (The Citrus Club), spa, and more - you’ll appreciate that no detail goes unnoticed.
