We offer private dining in three special venues.
With bluestone and historic Charleston brick, boxwoods, bubbling fountains, and beautiful crepe myrtle trees, guests are treated to a lovely, unique Southern garden. An idyllic space for pre-dinner cocktails, or al fresco dining, the Courtyard can accommodate up to 48 guests for a seated meal, or 100 guests for a standing reception.
Adjacent to the Courtyard Garden, this room features beautifully appointed fabric panels, antique mirrors, and historic reproduction sideboards. This room accommodates up to 80 guests for a seated dinner and up to 120 guests for a heavy hors d’oeuvres reception.
An extension of the dining room, this space features an intimate foyer for pre-dinner cocktails, and accommodates up to 32 guests for seated private dining.
