Lowcountry
A fantastic cafe and market for picnic rations such as pies, house-made relishes, local cheeses and all kinds of Lowcountry-spun awesomeness (including a bizarre but wildly popular cream-cheese lasagna). Or eat in and indulge in an Oooey Gooey, a grilled pimento-cheese sandwich with bacon and garlic-pepper jelly (one hot mess!), or a tasty crab-cake sandwich with brussels-sprout slaw.
It's a madhouse here on weekends, for good reason. And the Bloody Marys are fabulous.
