About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for craft beers
  • Great for outdoor dining
The newest restaurant at Kingston Resorts showcases the best local fare in a comfortable setting. All 40 beers on tap come from the states of North and South Carolina and the entire menu is Carolina born and brewed. Share small plates and appetizers, try fresh seafood, and house-smoked meats while enjoying ocean views. Order a craft beer at the outdoor beer garden and play favorite yard games such as cornhole in the new event space.

Above the restaurant, find a new event space with high ceilings, exposed wood beams, and floor to ceiling retractable windows with ocean views and an upper balcony for outdoor weddings, receptions, and events overlooking the new pool.

    Beautiful day to enjoy the patio- from the moment we sat down we were welcomed and relaxed. The service was very good, attentive and not rushed. Food was excellent- we shared a pizza which was delicious. I had the s’mores cake all to myself but snuck a bite of my friend’s hummingbird cake. Both were awesome. Drinks were on point too. We will be back!!

    Good time at Wednesday night trivia. We liked Black Drum because we were able to talk, listen to some music and still hear the trivia game. Much better ambiance than other options. Pizza was great
