Things To Do
Charleston City Market
One of the nation's oldest public markets and the cultural heart of Charleston. We are home to more than 300 vibrant entrepreneurs, and we are open every day of the year except December 25th. No matter what time of day or season you plan to visit, there is something to see, do, taste, and take home as a souvenir from the Charleston City Market!

Callie's Hot Little Biscuit
Open late night Callie’s is the perfect snack after a night of dancing at a wedding reception. Their glowing sign on King St. leads the way to the most amazing fluffy Southern biscuits. Make sure to grab a frozen pack so you can make them at home too!
167 Raw
Hands down 167 a favorite restaurant in town. Get there early if you don’t want to wait in line and grab a spot at the bar. Everything on the menu is absolutely amazing but you can’t go wrong with the mahi tacos and a cool glass of rose.
The Ordinary
In Charleston, The Ordinary is a fancy seafood and oyster bar centered on traditional Southern hospitality with coastal Carolina charm. Guests to The Ordinary have the privilege of dining in a historical building that has been altered just slightly to accommodate the American brasserie it currently holds. High energy atmosphere, detailed service and great food and drink pairings make an excellent meal. The menu at The Ordinary is based largely off of market availability from the local Charleston fishermen. Some classic favorites include East Coast oysters, fish chowder, American caviar and whole roasted flounder. Each day of the week features a different dish on special.
Rainbow Row
Rainbow Row is the name for a series of colorful historic houses in Charleston, South Carolina. The houses are located north of Tradd St. and south of Elliot St. on East Bay Street. It is referred to as Rainbow Row for the pastel colors used to paint all of the houses. It is a common tourist attraction and is one of the most photographed parts of Charleston.After the Civil War, this area of Charleston devolved into near slum conditions. In the early 1900s, Dorothy Porcher Legge purchased a section of these houses numbering 99 through 101 East Bay and began to renovate them. She chose to paint these houses pink based on a colonial Caribbean color scheme. Other owners and future owners followed suit, creating the “rainbow” of pastel colors present today.
Felix
At Félix we believe dining and drinking are experiences to be enjoyed, even cherished. We serve creative cocktails and small plates, all with the flair of today’s Paris.
Chubby Fish
We proudly offer fresh, Lowcountry seafood with innovative preparations. Tucked away in Charleston’s Historic Elliotborough neighborhood.

The Commodore
When local entrepreneurs Taylor Grant and Robbie Marty stepped into the old “Touch of Class” jazz club on Meeting Street, they immediately felt like they stepped back in time. They made a commitment to maintain the best elements from the original atmosphere. At the bar, they’ve preserved the same row of vintage brass and green velvet bar stools and glossy black tile that sparkles with the light of chandeliers. Velvet curtains surround the stage, as the disco ball casts patterns of light onto the dance floor, while comfortable booths for sipping signature cocktails beckon you to stay and relax.
