Tavern & Table is the dream child of Cecil & Dianne Crowley, Andy Palmer & Jeff Condon. After years of working together on various successful restaurant concepts, they wanted to bring together the very best aspects of fine dining and casual hospitality in a beautiful and comfortable setting. Tavern & Table is more than a restaurant, it was created to be a gathering place where people sit in comfort and share small plates for the table or enjoy a hearty meal. The bartenders know the fine art of cocktail making and their interest in flavor and presentation comes alive in not only in the food but in barrel aged cocktails that are created in-house.

A delicious taste of Germany in the Charleston area. Great service, nice ambiance, wine, beer and a menu that is broad enough to cover all tastes but focused enough to ensure quality in each bite. It’s a small and efficient location with ample parking so make a reservation, arrive on time and prepare to be happy.

Great food and great service but if you’re a small party ( 2 guests in our party) they only have bar seating. A small round stool with no back. I could not go back and sit there again it was so uncomfortable. They should be transparent about that when booking.

We had a wonderful dinner on Christmas Eve at The Boathouse. Valet was friendly and efficient. The hostess was kind, and our table was ready when we arrived for our reservation. The food was excellent (as always) and well paced. Even on such a busy evening we never felt rushed and service was wonderful. Thank you so much!!
