Staff is rude, especially the bar. Shame on you if you ask for a little accommodation while outside on the deck. 

Business response:

Jason, I'm going to message you for more details on your recent visit with us so we can address your experience immediately.

Some friends and I were down that way to celebrate a birthday earlier this month and I was told great things about Poe's prior to the trip. I was not disappointed. The service was phenomenal for the place being as busy as it was around dinner time, everything was cooked perfectly, and the Hop Frog is honestly the best burger I've ever had. My only gripe about my time here was that I needed a can opener to get out of the tiny bathroom, but that's besides the point. Whenever I head back to the coast, Poe's is a definite must. 

Business response:

Zach, great to hear you and your friends enjoyed yourselves! Thank you for sharing these positive words. Cheers!

I understand if that is the rules. But how you treat people matters too. Currently enjoying an excellent burger at Triangle Char & Bar just down the road in their outside enclosed seating with my... read more

This is my go to spot when at Sullivan's Island, service and food are usually good but have had a couple of bad experiences. Still worth going to for the atmosphere! 

Business response:

We take our service and food very seriously and want every guest to have a positive visit with us :) - Schanen
