Innovative cocktails & small plates in a sophisticated setting
























"A popular nightlife spot known for its lively atmosphere and connection to the Bravo reality shows Southern Charm and Southern Hospitality." - Erin Perkins

"A proper night out in Charleston isn’t quite complete without a stop into Republic Garden and Lounge, particularly for the bachelorette parties parading through this bustling part of town. Candle lanterns hang from the ceiling of the outdoor bar while cobalt suede couches and glimmering chandeliers fill the inside. There’s an extravagant charm here — so charming that Republic is the setting of a popular reality show about its staff. The Upper King Margarita with tequila and a splash of orange juice is bright, citrusy, and sour in all the right ways, keeping the crowds buzzy on the dance floor where some of the city’s most popular DJs spin sets late into the early morning. While Republic is more known for its party ambience, it’s stocked with a bar bites menu and an afternoon happy hour as well." - Kayleigh Ruller


"Party central Republic Garden & Lounge will host an NYE fete with passed hors d’oeurves and a champagne toast — here’s your chance to make an appearance on Bravo reality show Southern Hospitality. Tickets start at $155." - Erin Perkins

"I point out that Republic Reign is a dance club located directly across the street from the 477 King Street storefront, which helps explain why a new jazz bar there might be pitched as a quieter, more laid-back addition to the Upper King scene." - Erin Perkins

"Republic Garden and Lounge recently rolled out a new “Lucky Seven” happy hour that’s available starting at 4 p.m. daily. Find a selection of $7 cocktails and bar snacks along with half-priced punch bowls for the group, all to be enjoyed while listening to live music on the outdoor patio." - Parker Milner
