Set in a charming 1888 Victorian house with a wraparound porch in the heart of the historic district, Poogan's Porch is Charleston brunch at its most classic, warm, gracious, and deeply Southern.
The award-winning shrimp and grits is the signature, backed by buttermilk biscuits with sausage gravy, chicken and waffles, and famous fried green tomatoes.
It takes reservations, so book ahead and request a table on the porch in good weather. Weekend late-morning slots go first, so aim earlier.
It's a couple of dollars, there's no reservation and rarely much of a wait, and it might be the most purely satisfying thing you eat all trip.
