  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for craft beers
  • Great for happy hour
A comfortable room where fine spirits are drank, laughs are had, and stories are told. A public house for travelers and locals alike. Cold beer, classic cocktails, and familiar faces are just the start of it.

We strive to offer Old Town Bluffton, SC a timeless neighborhood watering hole just a couple blocks from the bluff. Paired with a chef driven menu of southern plates, thoughtful service and comforting lowcountry classic food.

After a swell day on the river or a rough one at work, bring a friend or come alone. Whatever you do... pull up a stool and stay awhile.

You are home.

    This is a great local pub - the food is very good and the service is great. It's perfect for meeting friends for an easy and reasonably priced night out. Great beer and wine selection also.

    Creative, tasty appetizer (whipped goat cheese w/pepper jelly) and nice sized portion entree (pork chop) - impressive variety on menu. A nice local spot with a good vibe, always a favorite.

    Great night. The tuna appetizer was superb, 9/10. Was surprised that the ribeye was unavailable at 7:00pm on Valentine’s Day, but the strip was an excellent substitute, 8/10. The highly recommended as their number one dessert, crème brûlée, was a disappointment as it was nothing more than a very bland pudding under an over-browned sugar crust, not a well-infused vanilla custard consistency dessert with a light browning of the sugared topping that was expected, 3/10.

    Lovely place! The food was delicious, and our server was helpful in answering our questions. A nice walking area, too. Parking easy and close by. Definitely would recommend having a meal or two here. Bring friends!

    We were seated at a space where one side was a wall bench the other side a chair. The cushion on the bench was busted as well as wobbly. The service was ok however my husband was disappointed that they discontinued the Rib Eye but found out after the order was placed and sent to the kitchen. The NY strip was not an acceptable substitute. My dinner I had the flounder which is my most favorite fish. However the dish was 10% flounder which didn’t taste good, crab stuffing mostly stuffing and perhaps cheese grits. You think when it was not really eaten the waitress would ask why? I didn’t even like the Gin gimlet that was left as well. Probably the worst dining experience we have had in Bluffton. Very disappointing as I was look forward to coming here as I had heard such great things.

    Everything is good but ventilation eyes burn and you come Out smelling of food. Great place but the kitchen ventilation is terrible…this needs to be fixed. I have no idea how the employees do this every night…the owner needs to call back the HVAC and vent people fix what they didn’t do originally.
