Voodoo Tiki Bar & Lounge

15 Best Bars in Charleston | Condé Nast Traveler

"Located next to a Subway sandwich shop in now-crowded Avondale, Voodoo has been welcoming all for years with its tiki goth-fortune teller-dive bar aesthetic. This is a neighborhood joint, so regulars abound, bartenders have been slinging drinks for years, and Drag Queen Bingo, live music nights, and DJ parties happen often. Come early, and the place is chill, but come after 10, and you're likely walking into a dance party. Tiki drinks are the centerpiece here, and if you're at a table, try a flaming Voodoo bowl to share. If you're at the bar and feeling adventurous, don't miss Caroline's concoctions. The long-time bar manager creates custom infusions that usually land on the specials boards." - Stephanie Burt
