One of my favorite pizza places in CHS so far! I like that they use sourdough! They have great happy hour deals like $4 slices, $8 meatballs, and a $3 pretzel! The meatballs are a MUST!! The service is great and the atmosphere is fun and inviting. This place is packed most nights so get there early, but they have a lot of outdoor seating. read more

Pizza is a winner. Restaurant is always packed but service is quick. Salads are a MUST, so good and can share among the table. Can bring the dog to the outside patio which is a bonus. read more

I freaking love this place. Eating pizza now at home and watching some college football. Bakers is near where our twin baby granddaughters live. On a nice day we might take them there down the bike path in their stroller. Other nights we get takeout when we're leaving their place. And then pass maybe 15 other pizza places on the way home. The pizzas are really really good. Perfect crust. The Caesar salad is as good or better than any pizza spot in town. And here's a pro tip. Meatballs. Get some meatballs appetizer. Money. Tonight our pizza is a simple 16" pepperoni and mushroom. Perfect. read more

I was definitely surprised by this place! Hands down some of the best pizza in the area. It even better that it's located in a shopping center with plenty of FREE parking and away from the hustle and bustle and headache of downtown Charleston. Service was also spot on. Their garlic knot appetizer was different and unlike any other garlic knot I've ever had. I will definitely be back! read more

Excellent first visit. The sauce was amazing We loved the roasted garlic on the pizza. Sausage and pepperoni was a big hit with our group. Thanks for serving up great pie! read more

Ordered a margarita pizza because it was near our Airbnb. Thought it was a pizza restaurant that also had a bar but turned out to be a bar that happened to serve pizza. Most expensive medium pizza I have ever bought and mediocre in taste. Would definitely not recommend it. read more

My search for a takeout pizza led me to this strip mall establishment. Pickup wasn't ideal as I arrived quickly and having gotten no notification went grocery shopping next door. When I arrived, however, my pizza was just starting to get cold. Never trust the online status updates. I liked the pizza; the Gruyere cheese added a distinctive flavor note and the crust was quite fluffy. Toppings were quite overpriced, however, and there was too much salt. Conversely, the calabrian chili I got on the side was 100% worth the cost. I don't know how they make it, but that is one flavorful chili oil. Overall, though, when my online delivery app snuck in a tip for takeout somehow, I end up paying almost $30 for a single personal pizza, which even for Charleston is a bit much. read more

It's a friendly, seat yourself kind of place. Our waitress McKenzie came right over. She was very friendly, cheerful and did a great job. We ordered the garlic knot which was amazing, and then had the veggie pizza which was also amazing and delicious. We were there at a busy time of day, with dine in and many take out orders and our order still came quickly. We were super happy to have found this place and will definitely be back. read more

Bolognese pizza. So good. Asked to have the table wiped. Never happened. Get it crispy. Sourdough May be a little doughy. Loud music but no tv sound. Can't call your place a sports bar when playing loud music and they won't turn on tv sound. read more

Ran in for a pizza.. empty, other than 2 tables, 1 person at the bar .. placed my order at the bar to take home .. within 10 /12 minutes the pizza was ready.. 28.00 for a 12 inch pie mushroom and sausage .. box felt heavy, warm .. got home in 5 minutes .. and took one look and this mess .. so much cheese, black burnt bottom.. gooey gross disgusting .. pizza .. the cheap cheese took over , the dough didn't rise and the bottom was black .. didn't smell good either .. two bites and then tossed it in the outside trash can ,( not something id consider consuming ) ! I went back out and picked up a frozen pizza .. 1000. Times better, for 11.00 bucks.. and I'm not one for frozen pizza.. but this was my solution for dinner. how can this place stay in business? Definitely won't return! read more

Best Italian sub I've ever had, no doubt! (Can I swear here?) I was floored. I heard their pizza is awesome too. Friendly, positive and warm vibe, they seem like nice people. Give them a shot. read more

This pizza is extremely cheesy and not in a good way. I would consider this a pizza for children tasting like a Pizza Hut/chuckee cheese hybrid pie. The construction is also not well put together, the sauce separated from cheese and toppings separated from both. The quality of ingredients also leaves a lot to be desired- the pepperonis were barely cooked, cheese seemed low quality and the sauce lacked flavor. We asked for this to be cooked well done but the center was extremely floppy and soft in the center. Overall I would not order the pizza again. The salad and dressing were delicious though. read more

Baker's Bar - Pepperoni pizza - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

It's obviously a locals favorite. We stayed in a hotel nearby and are so glad we grabbed pizza here. Locals are really lucky to have this quality pizza. We ordered the new pesto and sat at one of two tables outside. Pizzas crust is not too thick, or too thin. Loved this and would be back often if we lived here. read more

Super casual pizza join in the Windermere shopping center. They apparently started doing a Football Sunday menu where they have sliders and hotdogs for $3, or chili for $6 a cup. Discounted drinks as well. Overall, the hotdog was the best. Fun place to watch the game with a very inexpensive tab. The owner was running a one man show, which was super impressive. Would have liked to try the pizza, guess that's my reason to go back! read more

Very impressive friendly staff as only 2 people working the front of the house. The place was packed and the food was delicious and quick. Loved the big salad, meatballs, margarita pizza and mushrooms pizza. read more

Honestly, the waitress did a great job--she was attentive and friendly, and the service overall was solid. The pizza was good and definitely enjoyable. However, I have to say it was extremely disappointing--and frankly a bit insulting--to be served "yankee tea" that was just unsweetened tea with sugar packets on the side. As someone from Charleston, I expect a place to understand the basics of making proper sweet tea. It's not difficult or expensive to brew a real batch of sweet tea. If you're going to cut corners, at least use simple syrup, which dissolves in cold beverages. Otherwise, the sugar just sits at the bottom of the glass, completely undissolved, and you're left with a poor excuse for what should be a staple drink. This might seem like a small thing, but to people who know and love sweet tea, it makes a big difference. Please consider putting in the effort to do it right--your local guests will thank you! read more

We were on our first stop on our road trip to Tennessee and we decided to stop here and weren't really sure at first but after trying our first appetizer we knew we chose the right place we also had a very good waitress that treated us well and got our food to us fast and we loved the atmosphere as we could tell it was a very local spot with a bar, arcade, and very entertaining shows on the tv overall 5 stars. PS get the meat ball and garlic knot!!!! read more

Baker's Bar - A pizza that was very very good - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

When we entered this restaurant I felt suffocated from the bleach that they use to clean it. We ordered pizza (supreme) it was so good. However, the drinks was AWFUL! We ordered sweet tea and lemonade and water and all of them were not drinkable. I do not recommend coming here. Just go elsewhere. Their ice I guess thats what made our drinks taste AWFUL! Very disappointing!!! read more

Pizza is alway amazing and tasty, this place does a great job on their dough. Gotta try their salads....yugeeeeeee and always good lettuce is used. Cool little atmosphere inside too, with a few arcade games for the kids, but not a loud annoying kinda thing. Staff has always been friendly and the food has always been good. I always get the meatballs and the cheesy bread too, both apps are stupid good. read more

The New pesto pizza is the best pizza I've ever had! And the service was, as always, amazing!

Speak easy for pizza? You bet! In an unassuming street corner, in the basement is a small wood fire pizza place. The place discourages cell phones and has limited seating. Fits about 25 customers, so I always have a second plan if it's packed. Maybe Fast & French or Blind Tiger. Quirky vibe for sure. Check out their insta bakersbarCHS. It's laid back too, so don't be in a rush. Just be chill, yo. Speakeasy style. The medium pizza was a good size and the large are a bit bigger than I expected. I had their garlic knot, but it was a bit burnt, so I probably will skip the knot next time. Pretty fair prices and a decent selection of drinks. This pizza dive is worth it -- just like vinyl. read more

Baker's Bar - Them the rules... - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Yep, it is delicious pizza, but because it is so tiny and cramped - it felt more like a 'no pizza for you!' spot. We arrived and sat at the bar and waited a good 10 minutes before being thrown some menus. Trust me, no frills here. We chatted with several friendly customers, but found that this was not going to be a good spot to try to eat on two pizzas, so decide to change our order to go. When we finally wrangled one of the two employees (in a packed area with maybe 35 people, he said OK, 5 to 10 minutes. We paid and gave our seats to 2 of the many people still in line to get in. Fast forward (tongue in cheek) one hour later we had our pizza. Every single person in that place got their orders before us! Look this was good, and to some, this may not be a deterrent, but I'll nosh elsewhere. read more

With Uneeda Sicilian gone, we needed a new local "go to" pizza place where we can act like pizza snobs and discuss the world's best pizza. BB stepped up to the plate on our first visit and hit a triple. When you walk down the stairs and enter the stone forward basement space, you feel like you're one of the cool kids who knows exactly where to go to find great pizza. YES, BB is small, cramped, and you'll likely have to wait if you go after 6. The trade off is that their intimate setup promotes interaction and community among tables...a pizza lovers community! Hey, we all love pizza. Let's talk about it. We spoke with tables on either side of us about where we're/they're from (we live downtown) and how we ended up being one of the cool kids. The pizza, salad, and the (gotta have) wine were all stellar and listed at an EXTREMELY reasonable downtown price point. For two people, it was $72 with tip. Again, extremely reasonable. The (custom, build your own) pizza checks off every box in that it's chewy, crunchy, has a little char, and cheesy without being greasy. The Big Salad was fresh and the vin perfectly complemented the crust's saltiness. We also enjoyed the old school Chianti that's served in an old school basket holder (unsure what you call these things) reminiscent of Little Italy. Service was rushed, but consistent and without error. We look forward to our next walk down East Bay, basement detour, and pie! read more

Tonight I was really feeling pizza but really didn't feel like dealing with the downtown parking situation just for takeout. I decided to try a new place closer to home and decided on Bakers Bar. I ordered online which was really easy. I received a text after ordering saying it would be 30 minutes. Not bad for a Saturday night at 7pm! But, they really blew me away when after only 10 minutes, I received another text saying it was ready! When I went to pick it up, the place was packed. Not a single open table inside or out, and the bar was full too. How they were able to get my pizza ready in 10 minutes, I have no idea but that alone would earn a good review from me. However, not only were the fast, but the pizza was excellent as well! I ordered a cheese pizza with feta added. It was awesome! The crust was the perfect thickness and I'm very excited for my left overs. I only got takeout but the inside looked super cute. It even has some arcade games. I definitely want to come back for a dine in experience! read more

Baker's Bar - 16" Pizza with meatballs! - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Stopped by after a windy day at Folly beach. It's did not disappoint. Munchkin ordered buttered noodles (which he loved) We started with the meatballs. My husband is very picky and he said they were the best he has had besides his own. Just needed a bit more sauce. I ordered the spicy pesto pizza which was so amazing. Crust was perfect and the star was the garlic confit. We also got the supreme and it was fine but not as amazing as the spicy pesto. Split a bottle Chianti and the night was complete. Our server, Marisa, was absolutely amazing. Can't wait to go back. read more

It's ok. Pizza. Good tasting dough --but a little too thick for my taste, cheese is weird--it's like blended with something other than mozz and never cooked enough--I've been 2x. Second time pizza cooked better then the first. But you know you have piZZA problems when a 9 year old says they don't like it Salad. Caesar Very good. Fresh tasty not over or under dressed. Could use a little fresh parm and some anchovies but ‍1/2 size enough for 2-3 people. Wish there was a dude option. (Not that it matters because I'm never going back) Meatballs tasty-- but hard to get at in the little fancy Staub pot they're served in Staff. 1st time I went was a highlight--server knew the menu, was super cool, recommended this chili crisp thing they have which was better then the pizza. 2nd time not so much was told it is illegal to sit at the bar with a "kid under 18". It's not and drinking age is 21 so what's the ducking difference--oh--you're worried about your tips? Meanwhile there were at least 2 barstool Open the entire time we were there. Oh and that was after standing near the bar for 3-5 minutes without anyone acknowledging us and when someone did I asked if we could sit at the bar and before a yes or no covered with bartender. --this is pretty standard for Charleston service tho- overly laid back and self centric rather than guest focused---but would you like a drink while you're waiting for a table --no thanks--you can get your tips from the 10 empty bar seats Get a table--need to wait for the windex of r whatever cleaning solution is used to dry before sitting Order food and wine all at once No real issues. Wine is old--not in a blues brothers kinda way but in a "this bottle was opened a day or two ago kinda way ---like flat flat tasting ask if the bottle was opened today. Server say I don't think so--probably yesterday--no problem would you mind cracking a fresh bottle--I'll check Comes back 5 minutes later with a little wine in a rocks glass (warm from dishwasher) here taste this. I say it's a little different --says that's from the same bottle and walks away. Never to address the issue --am I at fucking applebys? My kid tells me the server and bartender are looking at our table and talking about us Now I don't know what the standards are now --I no longer work in restaurants--but I did for 30 years--I've worked for Jean Georges, orient express company for a number of years (5 diamond hotel), Marriott, and a number of the top restaurants around New Orleans, NEW York City, cut my teeth in the San Francisco Bay Area--and yes...in Charleston as well. I've worked as a chef and consultant all over the world from Asia, to Russia to France --I've been a server and a bartender----with by the glass wine service we were trained to bring the bottle to the table, show the guest the label and allow them to taste it for freshness (and also preference) --in this for instance maybe the bottle is off--bring a new one to the table--you want to play games? so I had no drinkable wine and another bad taste in my mouth. Maybe they're short staffed,? Maybe they're having a bad day? Maybe there's bad training? I don't know I don't care--these are not my problems--I'm the guest-- I'm Paying you to take care of me --I'm giving you money so I can relax instead of cooking and cleaning ---when the bill comes up to $60 for a pizza a salad an app a glass of wine (this was removed from the bill and bill was $49) everyone should be on their best. read more

My partner and I ordered a margarita pizza and a pepperoni roll for dinner. A relative made the suggestion that we order from Baker's Bar on our trip to Charleston. We were unable to dine in but we did take out. We enjoyed the pizza best! I like how crunchy the crust was and how they used cornmeal on the bottom of the pizza! It is hard to find good pizza where we live so we like to try new places wherever we go! We enjoyed the flavor of the pizza and especially the crunchy crust! The pepperoni roll was just ok so I would order another pizza but skip the roll. The inside of the pizza place was great and I loved how it was decorated! It was a local place and is sometimes a speakeasy! It is a small place so if you did dine in I recommend making a reservation or getting to Baker's Bar early to eat. When we are back in Charleston we will definitely be going back to Baker's Bar! Order from them during these times! It's great to support local places! read more

This place is amazing with such fresh food! It's a neighborhood bar, but everyone is welcomed. I was a newbie and everyone embraced me rather quickly. To be fair though, I'm rather charming. lol. Shout out to wait staff/bartender Charlie and Raina. They are sunshine. Happy Hour offerings are ridiculous! The price points are pleasing to the wallet. There are great Happy Hour choices, too. Here is my future plan--run the Greenway and, then, pop in for a beer. read more

Craving for pizza on this stormy day in Charleston SC. Found this busy pizza place near our hotel and loved the family atmosphere. Ordered a large Mushroom pizza with mornay, mozerella, bleu cheese, caramelized onions, balsamic drizz and added roasted chicken. And margarita. The pizza was great!!!! So great I forgot to take a picture before it was attacked. Thanks to our server/barista for a great job. read more

Baker's Bar - Spicy Pesto Pizza - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Josh at 5Church told us about this speakeasy pizza joint earlier in the day, so we made it a point to pop in for a late night bite, especially after being quite disappointed by Burwell's around the corner. Josh is from New Jersey/New York area, as am I. My future husband and I know good pizza, so when Josh said this was some of the best pizza he's had since coming down South from up North, we had to test his theory. He was right, it was pretty darn good. We got a special pie mind you (not one straight off the menu but a different one offered on this particular night that came as a recommendation from the bartender). While we didn't test out the plain slice, I would still give this pizza a solid 6.2 on the Barstool pizza review El Pres scale. That's not bad for Charleston!! Also, I just f*cking love Speakeasy vibes, so I think the ambience here really spoke to me more than anything. Future husband and I sat at the bar. I love sitting at bars with him because we both love to chat with other people, aka the bartenders, just as much as we like to chat with each other. Loves a good banter over pizza and drinks ya know? I am on a tequila kick so I had the bartender whip me up some sort of version of a super sweet marg. Could've done without some of the added ingredients because I am not big on sugary drinks, but it hit the spot with the complement of the pie, me thinks. We each had two slices at Bakers Bar and then called an Uber home. As per usual, when Joey says it's time to go home, I go harder, so I had him leave me out a third slice before he tucked the other leftover slices away into our hotel mini fridge. I am not big on leftovers so I needed to finish my overindulging night done right. I passed out after that third slice but definitely went to bed happy. Good pizza makes me happy! I woke up in the middle of the night to post this review and am feeling only slightly regretful that I ate all that pizza & drank all dem drinks. I'm a really healthy person usually and this trip to Charleston has me behaving in quite the opposite manner from my usual tendencies, so that's the only reason why I feel slightly regretful. You only live once, so go enjoy the pizza and have a 3rd slice naked in your hotel bed if it's speaking to you. read more

Asked around for a good local pizza joint and was directed to Baler's Bar. We ordered the meatballs as an appetizer and they were delicious. Perfectly sized for sharing. For the pizza we ordered a Supreme which was the closest thing to my husband's favorite pepperoni, mushroom and sausage. The crust was nice and chewy without being thick and too bready. The sauce was great too. We will be back for more. read more

Hands down our favorite pizza place in Charleston. Honestly our favorite place to go period. Super efficient, funny, attentive staff. Family atmosphere but my husband and I come here and sit at the bar to chill just us and love it. Our favorites are the new Pesto and the pepperoni. The salads are also massive and so delicious. Got a half to split three ways as an appetizer the other day and we all got plenty. Love it here. read more

Disclaimer: I only got takeout so this review is not reflective of the dine-in experience. Ordered a large supreme pizza on a Friday night. Was shocked at the blazing speed at which it was ready (15-20 mins). Heck I could've waited longer and been just as happy once I saw the final product. The pizza was fantastic! Best I've had in Charleston. The crust really sets it apart from competitors; it's chewy and full of flavor. Crust lovers, your Mecca is calling. read more

Pizza - hands down best dough and flavor in town (coming from a New Yorker). No doubt about that. However, this past week was the final strike in terms of losing their customer base - last minute the place decides to not open (day before thanksgiving) when they've explicitly mentioned they would be. Additionally, this place has no respect for its fans and customers who have grown them to where they are today. It's clear from their waiting staff and overall lax attitude of being open/closed. Multiple customers were outside waiting at 4pm when they realized they posted on their insta page last min about being closed (same day). Sorry to say they've lost a customer, but I am sure with their popularity the owner does not care one bit. read more

This place is fantastic! First- you have to do a little work and find the location. The amazing part is that your going to smell the pizza before you can figure out where the door is. Don't fret, take your time and you'll find the place. It's well worth looking! Started with the pretzel. It was delicious and a fluffy treat. To make it even better, it came with home made mustard. Being a self confessed mustard freak- I was in heaven! The menu recommended getting your pizza with salad on top. Ok- when in Rome- it was great and added to the flavor. We got a pepperoni with Cesar salad on top. It was YUMMY!!!! Sad part- is I live 8 states and the District of Columbia away. Next time I'm in Charleston, I'll be back! read more
