Poogan's Porch

The GOOD - The she crab soup was really good - it had the Sherry in it still. Some previous reviewer stated that it no longer did but it was for sure in there. The chicken was tender and well seasoned. The waffles were fluffy. Get the biscuits and butter, really light fluffy and with a little sweet because of the honey butter. The mimosas were strong, wow - I left with a buzz. Our server was just delightful - Christina. The BAD - the mac and cheese was underwhelming. No flavor, and relatively cold. The hostess was just unnecessarily indifferent, really rude.

From walking in to a beautifully Christmas decorated old Charleston building, you know this is going to be great! We shared the French toast for an appetizer, paired with the pimento cheese balls. Both amazing! The next was a family style meal of breakfast entres. I have to recommend the fried pork chop, it's amazing! Great service, would certainly visit again.

Simply amazing. It is always such a treat to have lunch at Poogan's Porch when we visit Charleston SC. You can make a reservation as well! I highly recommend the chicken and waffles. Also delicious is the chicken sandwich! If you have never been, do yourself a favor and go to Poogan's. It will become a favorite of yours! Also they allow pets on the porch which is so great if you are visiting Charleston with pets.

The food doesn't fail. I returned here after 2 decades although I've been in Charleston several times since 2002. Poogan's Porch is a Charleston staple. My server convinced me to try the banana pudding. It was overly thick and a banana hunt ensued. I would prefer more bananas. I would recommend sticking with pecan pie. The mocktail was tasty. The server was young. Failed to refill water or offer coffee with dessert during brunch. She seemed a bit overwhelmed or unconcerned although pleasant enough. I overheard her say she's a recent college graduate. So, hopefully, she'll learn better etiquette in a delightful southern city. The shrimp and grits may be the best in the city especially for lunch as in all these years I've tried most of the restaurants! Thank you to this amazing restaurant and home of the ghost dog!

Food and service were good. Even though our res showed for a different location, they accommodated our large group immediately. That was awesome. One thing that stood out about the food was its good presentation. I also remember the crust of the fried pork chop to be well seasoned. I enjoyed the experience.

This was recommended by my taxi driver from the airport who is a local. It did not disappoint. The venue was very nice and historically beautiful. Their fried chicken sandwich was the best I have had. There was not a huge menu, but the options we had were really good. Definitely a must have if your are in Charleston.

We were looking for a place for dinner in Downtown Charleston and this place popped up. We went during weekday and no wait at all. We ordered She crab soup, famous Fried chicken, the Catch of the day (Grouper) with green bean and the red rice and ended with Pecan pie. They gave us warm biscuit as soon as we sat down which was good. The soup is delicious. The fish is moist and flavorful. The fried chicken is very tasty and the pecan pie with vanilla ice-crean finished the day. It's a must try restaurant when you are at Charleston.

Poogan's Porch was absolutely amazing! I made a reservation two days before as I was bringing my dog and wanted to make sure we were able to get outdoor seating. When we arrived we were seated right away on the patio in the back on the first floor and there was a water bowl already waiting. Our waitress Keri, filled up the water bowl right away for my dog which I very much appreciated. Keri was very sweet and accommodating to not only me but my dog as well. We ordered the fried green tomatoes and they were absolutely phenomenal! The bacon jam and pimento cheese sauce that it comes with on the side was a perfect pairing! The shrimp and grits are incredible. The portion size was a bit big for me so I did not finish it but did take it to go. I also ordered one of the mock-tails on the menu which was delicious! I would highly recommend both dishes when you go there. It was a hot sunny day but the patio where we were was covered and there was a fan outside which helped a lot. I will definitely be back next time in Charleston!
