Poe's Tavern

Named after the poet who left his mark on Sullivan's Island in 1827, Edgar Allan Pоe’s Tavern is a highly rated casual restaurant a couple of blocks from the beach and offers a Lowcountry menu with various appetizers, soups, salads, burgers, fish tacos and sandwiches. Located in what used to be a 1940s house, it is covered with Poe's posters and photos from wall to wall. The items on the menu are named after his memorable literary subjects and characters, such as the Raven, the Pit and the Pendulum, the Gold Bug and the Starving Artist. Outdoor dining is available under the front porch with an awning or at tables with umbrellas in the front garden. Their selection of draft beers is extensive. Diners can also purchase mugs, T-shirts and other merchandise from the small gift shop on-site.
