Stopped into Burns Alley Tavern with a friend after everything wrapped up for the day at a work event, and it ended up being one of the highlights of the trip. We were just out exploring late night and came across karaoke, which made it an easy decision to stay for a while. The vibe was laid back and fun, the crowd was into it, and it felt like a great spot to unwind after a long day. Drinks were reasonably priced, which was a nice bonus, and it was the kind of place you could hang out in without overthinking it. Definitely glad we found it and I’d come back again next time I’m in Charleston!

This is a classic dive bar!! Brenna is the BEST!!! Top notch service!!
Burns Alley was such a fun time! The bar was packed to the brim, with everybody vibing and having a great time. Despite the fact that the bar was packed, the bartenders were awesome and always made sure that I was good on drinks and doing alright. The DJ that was there was great as well, as he kept playing throwback and contemporary hits that had everybody rocking out. Finally, I loved the location of the tavern, as it was an easy place to leave and walk a short distance to another bar or restaurant. The one (1) small downside was that there was a $10 cover, whereas other similar bars nearby didn’t have one that night. Even with the cover, I’d still recommend dropping in to Burns Alley for a fun night!

When in Charleston, you must go to this cool bar. We've yet to experience the live music because it starts late but it is a must-see just because of the cool laid-back vibe. Bartender needs to pour a full pint too.

Make sure you go on a weekend for Claire! Out of my top 3 experiences for my first time in Charleston (coming from DC) both Claire and the bar tied for 3rd place. Make sure to be nice and patient with the bartenders, and they’ll take care of you. Don’t be a jerk if your sugar free Fru fru Red Bull isn’t super chilled.
