Big Gun Burger

Luv a good dive bar. Very clean so don't let the dive part worry you. It's more simple and cool, and that's much needed on Marion Square. Solid food and reasonably priced drinks and food with an attentive bar tender...yes you have to go to the bar for service, but the bar tender took care of everyone well. Lots of history and a pool table to boot. If you want a solid local spot where you won't go broke, stop on in soon.

Great atmosphere. Marketed as a dive bar. Sat at the bar and Keith took great care of us. Food was prepared accurate, in a timely manner, and everything arrived at proper temperatures.

Best vegan burger I’ve ever had! I don’t eat exclusively vegan and I had been craving a burger but once I read this on the menu I just knew I wanted it. It filled all my burger needs. The crispy kale was like fries on a burger(but better- so perfectly crispy and salty) and the avocado like a healthier version of cheese with this amazing burnt bun and a FAT veggie burger. So many veg burgers are thin but this one made me feel like I wasn’t missing out on anything and in fact it was better than any meat burger I’ve had lately. Without all the bloating and nastiness I sometimes feel after eating meat. Highly recommend to meat eater and vegans alike.

Yep! The best burgers in Charleston! Just go. The fries pair well. My fave is the Classic, but you'll win regardless of your choice. Amazing! Regulars come during the day because the burgers and Nick, our fave bartender.
