Description

Taken from Poe's website:

"Welcome to Poe's Tavern, located two blocks from the beach on Sullivan's Island. Named in honor of Edgar Allan Poe, we're best known for great burgers and drinks.

Much like his work, the life of Edgar Allan Poe was short, tragic and shrouded in mystery. Best known as the author of the popular poem "The Raven", Poe is credited with creating the detective and horror story genres. After a brief stint at the University of Virginia, Poe enlisted in the army under the pseudonym Edgar Allan Perry and was stationed at Fort Moultrie at the western end of Sullivan's Island for thirteen months beginning November 18,1827. His time on the island inspired "The Gold Bug", a story about a mystical beetle that led to buried treasure. He died alone, impoverished and inebriated at the age of 40 amid conflicting accounts of his demise, yet left an indelible legacy on American literature.

Our juicy half-pound burgers are made with certified Angus Chuck beef, ground in-house and cooked to order.

Poe's wouldn't be complete without our expansive selection of bottled and draught beers, and a healthy wine selection. "
