10 Best Bar & Grill near Johns Island

“No Way You Leave Hungry! Petite portions are the last thing you're going to find at this John's Island establishment. So loosen those belts, get your taste-buds ready, and prepare to carbo load on the best sandwiches and sides this side of Charleston! The restaurant is surrounded by a gravel lot. Motorcycle riders will be glad to find a thin strip of cement at the front of the parking lot. Tattoed Moose regularly hosts live music throughout the week and on the weekends. These bands can set up outside under the oaks trees or inside on a small wooden stage. The inside of Tattoed Moose looks likes a hunting cabin designed by post-frat Harley riders. Hey that's not a bad thing! There are no preconceived notions that you have to dress a certain way, talk a certain way, or act a certain way to enjoy this establishment. Just sit back, sip a good beer, listen to some tunes, and uhhh.....oh yeah, eat! Begin your meal with some of the fries cooked in duck fat. The fries are unsalted but they are paired with a great dipping sauce that compliments the flavor of the fires nicely. The fries can also be topped with blue cheese and garlic OR a healthy heaping hopped-up serving of gravy. You'll definitely want to continue poutine these in your mouth! The Mexican street corn caught my eye, so I had to give it a try. I am happy to say that it does not disappoint. It is absolutely slathered in lime aioli, then rolled in cajita cheese, and chili powder. Now on to the main event. SANDWICHES. You get your money's worth when it comes to the portion sizes of the sandwiches at Tattoed Moose. You'll find the menu filled with tasty options like the falafel pita sandwich pictured above. Every sandwich is served with house made pickles and cajun pork rinds. You can, of course, swap out the pork rinds for another side like baked beans, short rib chili, cauliflower casserole, Caesar salad, brunswick stew or the aforementioned street corn and duck fat fries. The sandwich that caught my attention was the Pork Belly and kimchi sub. This was some of the thickest, tastiest pork belly I have ever had. Pair that with spicy kimchi, sliced veggies, and a sweet sauce, all wrapped in a super soft role, yes people, yes. The most popular sandwich is the Mike's Famous Duck Club. Hawaiin sweet bread is toasted and topped with duck confit, applewood smoked bacon, hickory smoked cheddar, lettuce, tomato, and red onion, and garlic aioli. Need I say more??? There's a reason people around Charleston rave about this sandwich. It's damn good. By now your stomach gremlin should be thoroughly satisfied. Per our servers recommendation, we decided to wash down the meal with a Raspberry Creamsicle Blender from Hopfly Brewing Company out of Charlotte, NC. Absolutely delicious and the perfect drink after a long day and a great meal.“

“The hamburgers are actually pretty decent, cooked perfectly in temperature, and they were able to accommodate me getting it wrapped in lettuce. The wait service was a bit slow and maybe understaffed, but they did a great job regardless. The ambiance is pretty bare and casual, but if you're into sports ball stuff they have like a dozen screens.“

“The go to spot for bar food in town! My friends and I love going here. Cheap drinks and food. As mentioned, you can expect bar style food...but cooked to perfection. The fries are cut and made in house, making them the best fries in town. Staff is usually swapped but will always greet you with a smile. The food can take a bit longer when they're busy, definitely worth the wait if you've got the time to hang out!“

“Talk about a great time with amazing eats and even better hospitality. The gang at Bedford Falls are just stellar! Bar tender Roscoe is a top notch lad and the owner Brendan made us feel right at home. Can’t say enough about the food…just perfection. Try the Fried Chicken Sandwich! Hands down a place to visit if you are in town.“

“I started coming here when I was remodeling a house near by. I had the best fried pork chop I’ve ever had and we visited more often than not for lunch for the remainder of the project. Bar food has gone so down hill everywhere and every single time I go here it is just magical (bacon cheese fries with jalapeños tonight). We love seeing Amy but we had mike and Josie behind the bar tonight and we had such a stress relieving late night app, drink, and listened to some karaoke that had people dancing. My glass stayed full and we brought home amazing leftovers. I really think places like this need all the recognition. COME GET THE DANG PORK CHOP IT WILL BRING YOU BACK TO YOUR GRANDMOTHERS KITCHEN.“

“Cool place close to downtown. You order at the bar and you pick your food up and take it to your table. You also clean your dishes and toss your trash when done. If you want white linens and table service, this is not going to be your jam. We were there for lunch and there were only a few folks scattered around. Food was good! Burgers were delicious. Bartender was friendly, bathrooms were crazy but clean, outdoor seating was nice. We would go back.“

“Perfect outdoor eating area on the backside of the place so no road noise. Staff spoils kids and dogs...LolParking: Plenty of parking which was really nice after experiencing the Downtown Charleston parking challenge.Kid-friendliness: Kids and dogs can have some open areas and TREATS!“

“Mainly 5 stars because I came up here from the beach on my 30th birthday and they delivered with cold beer and the best Crispy Chicken Salad I’ve ever had. Crispy fried chicken, halved figs, candied pecans, hearts of palm, a delicious truffle dressing over some romaine. I mean good gawd almighty.“

“Absolutely love the roost! I have frequented this bar a lot over the past few years! Lately my friends and I have been going to the music bingo on Wednesday nights at 7 and it's a blast. The vibes are great and I always meet someone new while there. The bar tenders and servers are amazing and the chefs know what they're doing!!!! Don't sleep on the food! Buff chicken dip- YUM (friend group favorite) Seared tuna-YUM Pork quesadilla-YUM All their food is delicious! Hope to see you on the dance floor!“

“Great Food.. Great Prices ... Definitely will return. Yummy brunch menu. I had the Monte Cristo. I have not had one this good since I lived in Minnesota in the 80s. Our server Kylie was AMAZING. Thwy have indoor and outdoor seating. If I could give it 10 stars I would.“
