  • Vickery’s Bar & Grill

    Vickery’s Bar & Grill

    A party with a view, Vickery’s at Shem Creek offers salads, sandwiches, soups, and entrées, plus wines by the glass on the short, but not shoddy, list. When the weather’s nice, grab a seat on the marsh-facing upper deck and watch the pelicans catch their dinner.

  • Ville Sainte Bistro

    Parisian-born chef Carole Robert creates classic French dishes with a dogmatic focus on ingredients, hand-selecting each day’s meats, seafood, and produce, then combining them with imported specialties, like the garlic paste that flavors the splendid escargot or rare seasonal cheese to transforms into fondue.

  • Vintage Coffee Cafe

    Vintage Coffee Cafe

    Next door to sister Coastal Crust, this coffee shop caters to East Cooper families and foodies alike. Settle inside the cottage for a bagel or bowl, or relax with a sandwich in the backyard while the kiddos clamber over a retro Chevy-turned-jungle-gym.   Photo Credits: Katy Jurkiw

  • Wild Olive

    Flexing his Italian know-how, Chef Jacques Larson incorporates finds from local farms and waters into pastas to die for and seafood dishes that sing with the season. It’s rare to find this quality of good food in such a comfortable setting. And the desserts are not to be missed.

  • The Crab Shack

    The Crab Shack

    The best of the local chain, Crab Shack anchors the Center Street scene. Patio diners are a raucous, mixed lot of families and happy-hour types. Look for a barrel of peanuts, plastic utensils, a raw bar, the requisite fried fare, buckets of steamed oysters, snow crab, and Frogmore stew.

    This unassuming sandwich shop puts out panko shrimp cozied up inside a hoagie, a Cu-bahn-mi with candied pork belly, and a Southern pot roast hoagie with gravy.
