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 solid go-to in Charleston. Whether you are entertaining out of town guests, there for a romantic evening, a special celebratory gathering or really just want a fantastic meal in a great atmosphere -- Church and Union is the place. The vibe captivates you before you even take a seat; the service is attentive without being overbearing, and everything on the menu is spectacular. (I've been there enough to know!) Everything about Church and Union will be a memorable experience that you absolutely shouldn't miss.....a feast for the eyes and the palate. Don't sit on this one -- just go.

This is a terrific restaurant. The menu is quite basic, but everything is prepared expertly, and the staff is both welcoming and professional. Whenever we're in Charleston we never miss a visit. My faves are the local Low-Country seafood items and the filet. Again, a basic menu but all the bases are well covered. Oh... and that coconut cake. "Extraordinary" doesn't do it justice.
