- HHenryAtlanta Metro •7 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoTo begin with, Bourbon & Bubbles is beautiful. The Restaurant was mentioned as a new brunch location in North Charleston. We will be building a house uptown, so we were eager to try it. There was no disappointment. From the Chardonnay shrimp cocktail to the biscuit sandwich, everything was well prepared. My wife and I had a drink called First Love. Because she is my first love, we decided to try it. Again, it was on point. I highly recommend this restaurant, can't wait to go back.More infoBourbon N' BubblesPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown Charleston•4.2

But if the menu includes just what you want to eat, then I highly recommend this place.More infoTempestPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown Charleston•4.7

- TTannerSouth Carolina •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoAbsolutely amazing experience here. My husband and I are still talking about it. The server shared they recently changed their menu to Modern French and everything from the cocktail to the dishes were delicious!! I think we had about 5ish plates including the brisket and fish…all knocked out of the park! Can’t wait to come back to Charleston to eat here again!More infoCoterie- CharlestonPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown Charleston•4.2
