Poe's Tavern

Locals say it's the best burger 🍔 in town , and it lives up to the hype. Only a $15 Uber from downtown. Great spot for lunch , beer 🍻 and an afternoon stroll on the beach 🌊.

Get the Black Cat burger . Eat it over your fries and then you'll have chili cheese fries ! Eclectic decor and perfect for the Poe fan! Pimento cheese galore!

Delicious burgers , proximity to the ocean and an Edgar Allen Poe theme all make this beach joint for fun the whole family or for cocktail time with your friends. [Eater 18 Member]

Best place for Burgers at Sullivan. I Love Tell Tale Heart but I like all I have tried. Great selection of Draught Beers . A little bit noisy as usually is always crowded . Good service and nice price.

Great Burgers ! I tried the burger of the day with BBQ sauce , chipotle mayo , and a mango salsa that was pretty good, but the Annabelle Lee that my boyfriend had was AMAZING!

I LOVE that the menus items are works of Poe! The burgers were amazing. You can't go wrong with The Sleeper

Absolutely the best burgers in the city . We are locals and know a lot of burger places but Poe's Tavern is the best!!!!! Highly recommended!

Yumm-o! Everything I tried was bursting with flavor. I was happy to see how clean everything was. This is definitely a spot I'll be frequenting.

So good! The cheese fries were outstanding, as was the burger (cooked to temp!). And they have a great draft beer selection .

Good casual bar with solid burgers . Buffalo Shrimp Tacos are excellent! (You can order 2 or 3 tacos - they are big!)

The burgers of course although don't sleep on the fish tacos

Everything is fresh made . The buffalo shrimp tacos are top notch. Love it.

Excellent burgers all around. Get anything and you will love it. Onion strings were cold but it was very busy. Great atmosphere

Absolutely amazing... Hop Frog with pimento cheese is fantastic. I have to stop here every time I'm in Charleston :) super awesome atmosphere too.

Burgers are huge! Awesome selection of beer . Really cool decorations and environment.

Get the Black Cat burger . Pimento cheese , bacon , grilled onions , chili . The toppings are great but the freshly ground burger is the star.

Delicious burgers . Walking distance from the beach . Easy, casual . Get the sleeper!!

Another contender for best burgers in Charleston. Open-air and has a really cool atmosphere based on Edgar Allen Poe.

Great food. Great craft beer selection for a restaurant/tavern. Can get crazy busy. But totally worth it if you dig Edgar Allen Poe & artwork dedicated to him.

Southern Living: "The Annabelle Lee ($12). When you're craving a burger but the salt air is saying "seafood ," satisfy both appetites with this crab cake-topped burger w/ veggie rémoulade sauce ." Read more

Great spot no matter the day! Food and beer is #Deliciousness. Highly recommend the Black Cat Burger with fries !!! #Dayum

It's tough to get a table if they are busy because it's seat yourself, no wait list. Great burgers and mahi mahi tacos !

Burgers are fantastic. Get the Poe's sauce with your fries .

Great burger , maybe the best in town ; Edgar Allen Poe themed - he lived on Sullivan's Island for a time.

One of my favorite restaurant/bars in the US. Sit on the porch , order the tuna tacos , and enjoy a cold beer .

Had the tell tale heart ! Was one of the best burgers I've ever had !

Best burger in CHS! Fish tacos are pretty awesome as well . Great for rain or shine!

Great patio ! One of the best burgers I've ever had. Try the Annabel Lee. It's topped with a delicious crab cake .

I had a chicken sandwich with guac , chipolte SC, pico de gallo , pepper jack cheese ! Awesome! Great beer selection !

Causal lunch or dinner is a must at Poe's. Limited but great outdoor seating .

The Sleeper (cell) burger + an egg on top is pretty darned good.

Tell tale heart burger with the bacon blue cheese slaw is out the reference standard

Cannot recall ever having a burger I enjoyed as much as Poe's. Get there early!

I'm very picky about meat and will rarely eat ground beef , but I love Poe's burgers ! Can't go wrong with fries or onion straws !

The buffalo shrimp taco is legit, even with flour tortillas . 🍤 👌 spicy , tasty, and filling.

Burgers , brews, and atmosphere

The tacos are very good also the potato salad and the burgers are very good

The food here is uber good and I like how all the names of the entrees are inspired from works of Poe!

Fish (tuna ) tacos are fresh and served with pineapple salsa . Cute spot near the beach .

Sesame Yellowfin Tuna salad is delicious!! Great atmosphere, fun place to eat.

The Amontillado is my favorite burger here! And their fries are delic.

The Tell Tale Heart burger and the mahi-mahi fish tacos are absolutely phenomenal

Great place for food and drink. Always busy.

Lovely burger and staff 🥰🥰🥰 definetly to come back

The Buffalo Shrimp Burger with Garlic and their slaw is awesome !

Great porch for people watching . Known for awesome variety of burgers .

Awesome place!! Great Food!! Cool Atmosphere!! We'll be back!!

Great burger , maybe the best in town

Staff says The Sleeper may be the best thing on the menu. Buffalo shrimp and bleu cheese on a burger , I agree.

Black Cat Burger and Westbrook One Claw on tap , trust me
