It was A-OK - but I thought it would be better. Â We went for lunch Friday after the 4th of July and it was very crowded. Â Very crowded. Â You're supposed to seat yourself, but one of the staff helped us find a table. Â It was outside in the sun - no umbrella. Â They had some umbrellas outside but seriously need more. Â We took the table so we didn't have to wait a long time and scooted close the table next to us to grab some shade. Â 2 of the 3 of us had some shade. Â Service was good - it was hot and they were hustling. Â Burgers were great but came out underdone - probably the kitchen staff was rushing to fill all the orders. Â We could have/should have sent them back, but at this point really wanted to eat and get the hell out. Â I'd go back, but not on busy summer days.
Review Source:Poe's!! My gosh, what a great spot.
Rode through a downpour to get to Sullivan's Island, spent an hour at the beach, then hit Poe's for lunch before heading back to Charleston. And we got there just in time, there was no line and a couple empty tables. On our way out there must've been 20ppl in line...
Loved all the wall art of various pictures and paintings of Poe, and all the relics of his work.
I ordered a chicken, cheddar and avocado sandwich, and my sister got the fish tacos. I know burgers are what people normally eat here, but we're not burger folk. I was so happy when we got our sweet tea and it wasn't sickeningly sweet. It was perfectly sweet!
A great spot while you're out on the island.
