Casual seafood on the water with a stunning view.

Chubby Fish does not take reservations but is definitely worth the wait. If you have time go early Friday (4pm ish) to get a spot for later in the night and enjoy one of the best spots to eat in town.

Seems like a tourist trap but sitting at the bar is so so fun! Live music with great food, drinks and vibes!

A great spot downtown for yummy smoothies, bagels, and sandwiches. Can order online for pick up too!

Leon’s is worth the hype! Rex recommends the chargrilled oysters with a fried chicken sammy or fried shrimp roll. Anna goes with the Siam salad add fried chicken and a side of scalloped potatoes.

Easy place to bring kids because there is a large outside area. Amazing sandwiches here also!!

One of our favorite restaurants around town- best for a big group so you can enjoy more of the menu family style.

A fun place to take a stroll and see the beautiful homes downtown. If we were you we would stop and get a coffee (and maybe a croissant) at Sorelle Mercado before and then finish up your walk at Blind Tiger for lunch.

Amazing art museum with phenomenal exhibits year round.

Some courses around town worth checking out: Links at Stono Ferry, Municipal Course, Kiawah, Wild Dunes

Our favorite place to walk downtown!

Escape the bustle of downtown and enjoy the gorgeous views heading out to Kiawah River. Once you get there head over to Linette’s for a drink and a bite to eat! Pro Tip: On your way out head to Rosebank Farms for local treats!

Such a fun aquarium for kids and adults! There is also a fun playground walking distance from here ideal for ages 2-10.

An immersive experience that tells the story of the historic ship!

Book a private or public tour to learn about the history of Charleston in a fun and exciting way. (Exponentially better than the horse carriage tours) The team also offers a wide variety of tours from Pink Houses, art galleries, ghosts and more.

Quaint bookstore with funky finds!

Anna’s favorite clothing boutique in town (that’s saying alot) Nette has elevated basics but mixes in unique show stopping pieces. Definitely worth checking out especially if you are walking around Hampton Park or are in search for a new pair of jeans ;)

Get a taste of Old Village at this adorable store with one of a kind pieces. Out of Hand has everything from clothes, skin care products, home goods and everything in between.

Right around the corner from Colonial Lake, Wentworth has one of the most beautifully curated home goods storefronts in Charleston.

Speakeasy style bar with amazing cocktails and French bites.

Rooftop bar of The Dewberry that shows you just why Charleston is known as the Holy City!

A cute little wine shop that is near Tutti’s pizza, Leon’s, Melfi’s and more!

A fan favorite place to sip (coffee) and enjoy a pastry. If this location is too busy try their sister cafe- Harbinger

Chill bar that usually has live music and good food!
