Café Framboise
159 Market StQuick, affordable and filling coffee and pastries.
This little bodega is a treasure trove. They have a small mexican kitchen called "La Cocina". The sign says it's M-F 10a-3p, but I was just there on a Saturday afternoon. The carne asada torta was delicious. It came with salsa rojo, but if you want verde, they'll probably give you some. That comes with the chicken milanesa. I've also heard the burrito is good. Prices are perfect. The torta was the size of my head. Grab some pork cracklins or any flavor of Herr's chips, they literally have 20 different options. Pick up a 40oz Tecate and go hang out in the shade at nearby Hampton Park. Just please don't feed the ducks. (NO SEATING HERE).

Mexican food, mezcal, tecate, and the el Satanico (it's weird, try it. Only frozen). Another Sean Brock venture but who cares. The country fried steak at brunch is pretty sweet. Open Lunch and Dinner (Fri and Sat till 11pm) and Brunch on Sunday.

Cool atmosphere. This greek restaurant has been making delicious food since it opened in Spring 2017. The chef also has a restaurant in Richmond, VA. Some items can be pretty heavy, and portions are large so order short and add more. Love the octopus. Mushroom saganaki, lamb shank, kotopuolo (grilled chicken), brunch. The chios fizz is a great cocktail, and don't miss their traditional desserts.
Open Lunch, Brunch, Dinner and Happy Hour.

The best cocktail bar in Charleston. Don't rush through here. Ask questions. Enjoy small sips.
Mostly meats and cheeses for food options. I think the selection is top notch. I prefer Bin 152 for meat and cheese, but their plate is not going to disappoint.
This is quintessential Charleston cocktail bar.
