What People Are Saying About Charleston Inc

The Scene
This handsome corner tavern derives its unique charisma from an antique feel and woodwork and from its adoring neighborhood-and-beyond clientele. Comfortable, lived-in and welcoming, the Bucktown bar attracts easygoing weekend bohemians, post collegiates, longtime locals, and newly settled professionals. It can get crowded but it's never a scene. Seating consists of a dozen bar stools and various wooden tables and chairs. There's an in-house piano and a pool table in the back. Windows offer a pleasing street view.
The Draw
The bartenders take good care of the diverse urban crowd. The wide selection of draft beers includes Harp, Guinness and Moosehead, and the bloody mary enjoys an excellent reputation. Live music, usually folk, jazz and country, echoes through the joint on weekend nights.

I love the Charleston. If I opened my own bar this is what it would look like, replete with the most random assortment of interesting trinkets you could imagine from taxodermed furry heads to street signs. Prices are cheap. There's a pool table. Staff is friendly. Many nights offer live music. Once, they even held a local chili cook-off. What could be better?

Nice place to go and relax with a friend. Good selection of musical guests. Great beer specials. Tamales are a must.

Great little bar where you dont have to pose or worry about looking good. Once in a while they have live jazz or folk bands. They play country, bluegrass, banjo music overhead. Buy some tamales from the tamale-man that comes by.
