    We had a great experience at Coastal Crust Pizza on James Island. The restaurant wasn't too crowded when we stopped in, so we were seated right away and enjoyed a nice, relaxed atmosphere. ​We ordered the mushroom pizza, and it was fantastic--packed with flavor and served hot fairly quickly. Our waitress did a great job taking care of us, keeping up with everything smoothly and efficiently. They have both inside outside seating. We will definitely be back again!

    Good pizza, love the unique topping options. It's better when dining in though. The crust can get a little soggy when ordering for take out. The pasta, apps and wine list are great! Staff is always friendly. Worth wine place to go for a slightly more than casual date night.

    You have a wood fired oven yet your pizza is soggy. Waitresses have RBFs. What's with the attitude? I live two miles away. Place is empty. Will close soon

    Spaghetti and meatballs. Meatballs are juicy and full of flavor

    We were in town to drop the kid off for college. My work colleague lives in Charleston and has been wanting to try this place, so off we went. 3 stars because this is like the tale of 2 different restaurants. 5 stars to the food! The pizza's were really yummy. Cooked well and that sauce is so balanced! Not too sweet, not too much acid. They are generous with the cheese as well. Order the Grandma though and thank me later. One of our party ordered the spaghetti with meatballs. He said they were the best meatballs he's had in years! Not dry, but pleasantly juicy and flavorful. 1 star for the service. Our server was certainly nice and friendly, but she was also absent for most of the meal. She didn't know the bar (when we were ordering drinks, she had to go back and ask several times about what they had - come on, Bacardi is not exotic), and we had to flag someone else down for water refills, etc. Never checked on us either, just asked if everything was OK when we got the check. I would chalk it up to a new server or something, but prior reviews have mentioned the service, and not in a good way. So a 3 it is. We would definitely go to Coastal Crust for the food, but maybe in a different location.

    THE BREAD SERVICE, 10/10! That's our favorite part, you cannot go wrong with bread and delicious spreads. It's a cute little spot, our kids really enjoy their pizza and outside seating area.

    Pathetic pizza

    $40 !!!! Pathetic pizza - no cheese, 2 pieces of sausage Terrible salad Never going back!

    Great outdoor option for families with children, with picnic tables, running and playing space, but not great for those who DON'T want kids running around. Our drinks were forgotten about, the food came out before our drinks arrived (we were still charged for them). Pizza was not bad for the area, but was lacking flavor and crisp (very soft undercarriage). I had higher expectations, given the proper pizza oven they have. We ordered 2 pizzas and they came out about 15 minutes apart. Live music always gets us motivated to try new places, so that was a plus. But not sure I'd come back.

    Thought I'd try a second piece but I couldn't finish it either.  Too burnt on the bottom and not crisp at all.

    I am visiting Charleston for 10 days. I had high hopes for the wood-fired pizza at Coastal Crust. There were a few patrons at the bar, which seemed cozy. And the young lady who greeted me and took my order was very nice. That's where the good stopped. The pizza was not crusty nor crispy but "floppy" when you picked it up. It was burned on the bottom, and the crust, as well, in places on the top. The top would've been okay as it was easily picked off, but the bottom being burnt made the pizza inedible for the most part. I love wood-fired, but it shouldn't taste burned and still be floppy. The meatball slices were nothing to write home about either. It sounded so good on the menu. I am disappointed. I was really looking forward to a decent pizza.

    Glass of Prosecco

    Went back again this Friday for some wine and pizza. The outside area is so nice especially for the kids and the pizza is delicious! Here's the problem... The wine pours are tiny. They barely give a half glass of wine and at $11-12 per glass, it's just not worth it. We decided to end the night with a glass inside and the pour was almost double. I suggest going inside for your wine or we can hope they read this review and train the bartender on what a proper pour in the plastic glass is!

    Gluten free crust not safe for celiacs. They are unable to cook the gf crust on any type of barrier to prevent cross contamination.

I know it sounds funny to rave about chicken nuggets, but these were honestly some of the best I've ever had. They reminded me so much of McDonald's chicken nuggets in the best possible way. I stayed for a drink and ended up getting treated to an incredible thunder and lightning show over the city. It wasn't even raining, which made it even cooler to watch from the rooftop. Between the amazing views, the friendly bartender who saved me from going to bed hungry, and unexpectedly fantastic chicken nuggets, this ended up being one of my favorite stops in Charleston. I'll definitely be back for another drink...and another order of chicken nuggets.

The roof top however gives off more of a college/dive bar vibe despite having a great view of the city. When we went on Monday only one bar, the downstairs one was open. Despite there being servers it didn't seem that anyone wanted to take tables so the solution was for guests to order drinks/food at the downstairs bar and bring it up to the deck themselves. While the bartender was nice, fast, and good at her job everyone else around her just didn't seem to care to provide service. The chips on the trio platter were beyond stale and since servers didn't care to serve the top deck tables were left unbussed and dirty. Not sure if this experience was a case of severe understaffing or just negligence on the management. I'd recommend going to literally any other rooftop bar for a more elevated experience where the staff actually wants to serve the guests.

Don't let the name deter you if you are not a gin person because they have many options with different types of liquors. One tip: sit at the bar if you can, the set up is stunning especially for taking photos! The cocktail menu was moderately extensive with two full pages of complex and simple cocktails. Honestly, it was so difficult to choose what drink to get because I wanted to get everything on the menu. The bartenders were so attentive and talented - their implementation of each cocktail was even better than the menu descriptions. Not only were the drinks delicious but also beautifully presented. They have some bar bites as well as quite a few small and large plates, we got the pretzels which to my absolute surprise were so good! If I ever go back to Charleston, I will definitely be hitting this place up.

You can tell the bartenders know exactly what they're doing. The surprise star of the night, though, was the grilled cheese. Calling it a grilled cheese almost feels unfair because this thing was next-level. Perfectly crisp on the outside, rich and gooey on the inside, and paired with the cocktails so well that we were talking about it long after we left. Sometimes the simplest thing on a menu ends up stealing the show. The atmosphere strikes that perfect Charleston balance of classy, cozy, and effortlessly cool. Great service, great drinks, and one of the most memorable grilled cheese sandwiches I've ever had. If you're in Charleston and appreciate a serious cocktail program, The Gin Joint is a must-visit. Come for the drinks, stay because the grilled cheese will ruin lesser grilled cheeses for the rest of your life

But last night we went back and we started with the Crab dip. The crab dip had so much spice that the spice overwhelmed the delicate flavor of the crab meet.

Also, this place is huge so they were able to accommodate my friend's post-wedding party (about 20 people) at the last minute and we had a blast. Everywhere else we tried to go either didn't have the space for us or were closing so it totally made our night! We just made sure to call ahead to check and they were more than happy to have us - the bride was happy so you know it was good :) Bottom line, the Peacock is a local gem hidden in plain sight on East Bay and, as a local, it's become one of my top go-to's in Charleston. You can't beat the prices (seriously), ambience, quality, and awesome staff. They also have live music every week so they know how to keep it classy and lively at the same time. I highly recommend checking it out!
