Very good! We went for Mothers Day brunch and the food and drinks were very tasty and the service was great! Would go back again!

Was so stoked to try this place but was severely disappointed. The service was terrible from start to finish. The drinks are made with very cheap liquor and have absolutely no balance or care put into them. Waitress couldn't even be bothered to garnish the cocktails -- a small detail, but it shows how little effort was made. The waitress entered our drink order incorrectly and then disappeared instead of trying to fix the mistake. After waiting over 15 minutes, we cancelled the rest of our order. We still paid for the one awful cocktail we received just to leave. Definitely not a place I'd recommend if you're looking for quality drinks or even basic service. read more

Bourbon N' Bubbles - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Stopped in for pre-dinner drinks with my husband during our quick weekend visit for a friend's wedding, and we ended up staying for much longer than planned because of Abbie & Will behind the bar! They were incredibly hospitable and friendly, and Abbie was super helpful in recommending a spritz flavor for me. Peach was absolutely the move and I thoroughly enjoyed every sip of it! As we were sitting at the bar, I took note of the insane wall of bourbons they had behind the bar and my husband inquired about their most expensive one (he was just curious as neither of us are bourbon drinkers). Will was quick to answer and we ended up chatting with him for a while and learning all about his history as a bartender turned bourbon expert. This man had some really cool stories and our convo with him made the experience that much more memorable and enjoyable. The vibes are moody and swanky and the whole aesthetic is just beautiful. I feel like we were lucky to snag a couple spots at the front bar but we were also out a bit early for a Saturday evening. I really wanted to order one of their espresso martinis as well because they looked incredible and seemed super popular (we watched Abbie impressively make 8 at once), so we will have to come back again asap! read more

The inside is nicely decorated with dim, moody lighting. I received great, attentive service at the bar. Everything I ordered was delicious. The mango citrus mocktail was refreshing. The sweet corn risotto was perfectly cooked and creamy. The hazelnut bombolinis were filled with plenty of chocolate hazelnut spread and the cannoli dip was amazing. read more

Just went here for drinks, but what an awesome cocktail bar and lounge. The bartender amd service was top notch, letting us sample multiple bourbons and wine prior to buying. Had a very nice selection of bourbon and wine, as well as an expansive cocktail list. Spot was very chic and had a Manhattan cocktail vibe. read more

We've been trying to make it to Bourbon and Bubbles for some time now. It's really cute inside. Decorated beautifully. It's got a great vibe but the table set up isn't necessarily conducive to sit and eat comfortably. Our server Anissa was very friendly and helpful. The acoustics echo which made conversation quite difficult. Even our server struggled to hear what we were saying. The drinks that we ordered were a great way to start off our experience. We ordered the Wagyu burger, the BLT, Salmon, and the Steak Frites. Everything was very good although we all felt that everything was a little too over the top seasoning/sauce wise. As they say, sometimes less is more. If you're looking for a cool vibe for some apps and drinks, this may be your place. read more

The space itself is gorgeous--with the lighting, chic décor, and a stylish vibe that makes it feel like a special night out. The cocktails were excellent: balanced, creative, and beautifully presented. The tuna part of the appetizer was good. Was not a fan of how pickled the veg was underneath. Didn't think they really went together. That said, the experience started off rough. The host staff was dismissive and unwelcoming. Even though more than five tables sat empty the entire time we were there, we were told we couldn't sit at one because we didn't have a reservation. Instead, we were crammed into an already-crowded bar area. One of us had to stand. What saved the night was the bartender. He was friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. Not only did he make some of the great drinks, but he also gave us great recommendations for dessert spots nearby. His hospitality really turned things around and made the experience worthwhile. Overall, the atmosphere, drinks, and food are impressive, but the hosting staff needs to step up to match the rest of the experience. read more

This was a great spot for my birthday dinner! It's very low lit and has a bunch of upbeat music playing. Our waitress was very personable and friendly too. We all ordered different things and everyone loved their dish. I got the Wagyu burger and it was great, but only if you like blue cheese, if not I would order without that. The fries were crispy and well seasoned as well. For an appetizer definitely go with the crab fondue--it was so tasty. They also brought me free dessert which was a brownie and ice cream! read more

I love this place. We have been for late night drinks and now brunch, and I really just love everything about it. The brunch was INSANELY GOOD. I was blown away by the rice bowl - I don't think I've ever had a dish that I could compare this to, and I wish I could get it again at home. My husband's biscuit and gravy (you'll notice it's not *biscuitS*) was amazing. One of the biggest biscuits I've ever seen; he literally couldn't finish the dish. The caviar deviled eggs were *chefs kiss* Drinks are fun and always good -- we've had everything from an espresso martini to an old fashioned, to a Boulevardier to a Moscow Mule. Always good and always tasty. Service overall for me has been a 4/5, but only because we had a newer bartender who was struggling a bit. Otherwise, we've had great service. It's GORGEOUS inside and I always love how trendy and classy it is - a very good vibe and right up my alley. read more

We stopped in for a couple of drinks prior to a dinner reservation up the street. The bar was circular spanning from one room into the other, with two sections in the middle facing each from. As we walked in the main bar was hopping, we asked to be sit at the other bar. It was just us at first, absolutely beautifully decorated with cool stools and lighting. Bar tenders were impeccably dressed and had the pretty boy/girl look. As for the cocktails; lots of fun house drinks, an array of champagne and bubbles, bourbons, whiskeys, and wines. Not inexpensive but a fun place to go with friends. In saying that a party came in, a family with five young children - no bar high top seating for them!! read more

We loved the name so we went inside. food was ok. Felt kind of sad. We had a bottle of wine and some appetizers. We did not stay for dinner. I didn't like the feel. Bartender was not very friendly or helpful. Just felt odd. I felt sorry for them. Food was ok though. read more

Bourbon and Bubbles, sounds like a cool bar right? Nope they are also a restaurant with very good service and food. Wine took a while but they were busy.

Have driven/walked past this place hundreds of times, finally went inside. It is very prominently on King Street. They have a large drink list and decent although somewhat small dinner menu. The ambience seems upscale, but they do have several TVs and music playing on the rather loud side. It is quite pricey, be aware. In my opinion, they are overcharging but trying to appear "classy". Their Sunday Sauce pasta special was very tasty. Service was fine. read more

As a Bravo fangirl, I was hyped to check out Bourbon N' Bubbles during my stay in Charleston. Sadly, the experience was just overpriced and mildly annoying in that the fire alarm beeped with strobe lights going off the entire time we were there. An announcement would randomly say to evacuate the building too, but being that no one seemed phased by it, we stayed put for our one round of drinks and then bounced. I ordered the espresso martini, and while okay, it was the most expensive one I've had in Charleston and I had better elsewhere in the city. We were seated in the front room also, which I guess would be considered the Bourbon room based on all the brown decor. The room in the back looked much more "bubbly" and bright. I probably wouldn't return on a future trip, but I'm glad I got to see the space in real life as a reference point for the show. read more

This was my second visit to Bourbon n Bubbles on Upper King Street. First, for a birthday dinner and most recently for Restaurant Week. They offer a limited but delicious selection of appetizers and shared plates. The SC Cornbread with whipped honey butter and pickled jalapenos, is a must-try, as were the Fried Chicken Lollipops with Waffle Bread Pudding. The elegant atmosphere is perfect for special occasions, and the selection of champagne and cocktails is top-notch. However, the service is just average. Overall, it's a great spot for great food in a stylish setting, though there's room for improvement in service. read more

I really wanted to enjoy this place, but unfortunately our experience was very disappointing. We ordered gnocchi that was so overcooked and soft it was inedible and had to be sent back. Service issues were constant throughout the night. We ordered three appetizers, two of them didn't arrive until after our entrées were served, and one never arrived at all. When we mentioned the missing appetizer to our waiter, he told us he had "just put the order in," despite the fact that we were already eating our meals. In addition, multiple entrées for our table were forgotten entirely. When we brought these concerns to the manager, no solution or effort to make things right was offered. We were also celebrating two separate occasions and informed the restaurant in advance, but there was no acknowledgment at all, which was disappointing. We were a group of 8, and there is an automatic 25% gratuity for parties over 6. Being required to leave such a high tip for extremely poor service and bad food (greasy and mediocre) felt unreasonable and left a very sour impression. I hope management takes this feedback seriously, as this could be a much better experience with improved service, communication, and food quality. For now, I would caution others, especially larger groups, to be aware before dining here. read more

Such a fun idea & execution. Love that the restaurant has games on all the tables too. Delicious buzzed ice cream Be mindful, they do not ask for your ID until AFTER you pay. Is this dumb? Obviously. Just make sure you don't forget it!! read more

I wanted to like Bourbon N' Bubbles. It was so promising, till we were hoodwinked. The inside is vibrant and gorgeous. The menu is fantastic with lots of yummy options. I'm usually the one who plans my meal around what's available for dessert, but my husband zeroed in immediately on the red velvet cheesecake. He's nuts for red velvet cake, but in cheesecake form? He was giddy! When our server came, he even talked to her at some length about the preparation of the red velvet cheesecake. We told her we planned to order dessert at the end of our meal so we could eat it on hotel's rooftop garden. My entree, truffle lobster ravioli, was delicious, while my husband's was, in his words, "fine." This isn't a reflection of the restaurant, though; my husband had shrimp and grits. It's hard to stand out in a city where every restaurant serves that dish. When we paid, we were unpleasantly surprised to see a $6 credit card surcharge for payment. I'm aware some businesses are doing this. However, I have two thoughts on the practice: 1) I've never had the charge come as a surprise--it's always been posted very visibly in multiple places; 2) passing on the cost of business to your customers is bad form--at least work it into your fees. It's icky. But the real disappointment was that the red velvet cheesecake on the menu was NOT CHEESECAKE. It was mere red velvet cake, and a dry red velvet cake at that. I did give this feedback to the restaurant and have not received a response. The "cheesecake" is still on the menu. I'm curious if we were an off night or if they serve plain cake every night. With all the great diningchoices in Charleston, I recommend making another one. read more

My friends and I stopped in for brunch during a bachelorette trip, and it was such a great choice! The food was delicious--I ordered the chicken and waffles and was pleasantly surprised at how tasty it was. The staff was friendly and attentive, though to be fair, it wasn't too crowded so service was easy to keep up with. The restaurant itself is really attractive, with a nice vibe and good music that made the atmosphere fun and welcoming. Overall, I'd definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area! read more

Hands down worst service I've ever experienced in Charleston. Ordered appetizers and drinks and the appetizers came 10 min before our drinks arrived. Waiter never came to ask how we liked our food. We had to walk up to the bar to ask for more water and for our waiter to order another drink but even after asking it took Victor 10-15 min to come by again and we decided to just get the check and get out of there. Wasn't even busy on a Tuesday night. read more

Do not sleep on the blue crab fondue here- we asked for more crostinis because the portion was large and then I ate the dip with the spoon. Could not leave a single bit... soooooo creamy and good. The crostinis were crisp and soft at the same time I guess they get it from saffron which isn't too far. Thought to go stock up. The place is moody and sexy. Cocktails were great. A little expensive but worth it all. Our table was a little crammy in the back by where the servers go in to get food. Other than that this is such a great spot for an app and drink. Could get 4 of the fondue and still take one home to go. read more

I truly don't get how this place gets decent reviews. while the bartenders were lovely the food was just awful. steak aupoive was just gross. smothered in what tasted like a thick onion soup. the meat was undercooked, the extra fee for the truffle fries would have been fine if i could taste truffle but they were just herb fries. wouldn't go back. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! It was Thanksgiving! As my date and I walked up to Bouron N' Bubbles, we were immediately greeted outside and seated at a table inside the restaurant. As we walked though the restaurant there was 2 bars. One bar was spectacular! The ambiance was on point with the lights dimmed, music from the Gewastime frame was playing, the staff was well dressed. We placed our orders. This shrimp Cocktail was the best I have ever had and a nice presentation! Must try! I had the fish of the day and salad, incredible! Must try! Then the seafood/ shellfish pasta was also the best I have had! Must try! We were given 90 minutes to eat as it was Thanksgiving, nobody was rushed! We were there for 2 hours! I want to thank Bourbon N' Bubbles for one of the best Thanksgivings ever! You have definitely earned your 5-star review! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

The crab fondue. If you only take one piece of advice from me ever, please let it be the blue crab fondue. It was delicious and served with perfectly grilled bread. I'm addition to this amazing starter I also enjoyed Charleston restaurant week here. I got the deviled eggs and while they were nothing to write home about the juxtaposition of the crunch and creamy was a welcomed touch. The chicken lollipops were perfectly breaded and had so much flavor, I love the ranch on the plate as well. My only hope for this dish is that there was more waffle to go with each piece of chicken. Unable to decide between the death by chocolate cake and the blueberry crumble cheesecake I got both. The chocolate cake was rich and flavorful, I would've love to see it paired à la mode. The blueberry cheesecake wasn't exactly what I was hoping for. There was almost an artificial pop tart taste to it, but beyond that the creaminess of the cheesecake was perfection. Our server was phenomenal, incredibly attentive provided great recommendations, and was so helpful when it came time to decide what to drink with such a meal. I love the atmosphere here, whether you're looking for a nice place for a date night or grabbing a bite and a drink at the bar you will not be disappointed. read more

We came in late one night for drinks and we're presently surprised by the interior! We sat at the bar and enjoyed a few drinks.

It was SO SWEET; it was difficult to drink it.... We would stop in again for the espresso martinis! read more

Went on a Saturday night for dinner, during restaurant week. This was my second visit and they exceeded the first. Our server, Jackson, was knowledgeable and patient. The manager, Scott, was hospitable and did a great job hosting our table and making the birthday girl feel welcome. The ambience is aesthetically pleasing and Instagram-worthy, but that doesn't take anything away from the food. Every single dish we had was amazing! The calabash shrimp made us dance, the shrimp and grits was flavorful, and the desserts made us clean our plates. We were a table of 4, but saw a large party and a lot of date nights as well. Large selection of cocktails and cocktails wines. Highly recommend for a downtown dinner option. read more

This is a tough review, because while I felt the food was decent, the price paid for this experience made it feel like a bit of a rip off. I came here with a group of wonderful ladies to celebrate a friend's 50th birthday, and the dining experience had to be prepaid given the size of the group (there were 9 of us, should have been 10). We were seated at a winding bench just beyond the hostess stand by the entrance, in a space that felt more like a lobby or waiting area before the dining room. Very tiny and wobbly round tables and chairs were awkwardly placed along the long bench, and there was very little room on the tables for the food. At one point we were placing plates of food on the seat bench next to us. A visit to the restroom revealed that the restaurant really is not that big (from where we were seated, we could not see the actual dining room area), and it looked and felt more like a large bar/lounge than a restaurant. I wouldn't advise anyone with a party larger than 5 or 6 to attempt to dine here. The service was okay, we had several servers attending to us and some of them were great, while one or two of them probably should have stayed in the back of the house. All dishes were "shareable," starters, small plates, a LOT of French fries, and a handful of entrees. We estimated the cost to be about $235 per person. Some alcoholic drinks were included however, (*initially) the ladies' drink of choice was excluded (espresso martini), as was a slice of cake we requested for the birthday girl. For this price, we all felt that everyone should have received their own entrée, and that we should have been seated in a more suitable area that could accommodate us and our food and drinks. Several of the ladies in our party ended up having a conversation with the manager as we were leaving, and he was very accommodating and ended up crediting the charge for the martinis and cake slice, and also escorted half our party (half of us had already left) to the VIP area of a nearby nightclub with complimentary entry and a gift card. This was a strong attempt to rectify the unfortunate circumstances and it was very much appreciated. read more
