Briny Swine Smokehouse & Oyster Bar

Briny Swine Smokehouse & Oyster Bar A seaside-inspired smokehouse and oyster bar featuring Carolina-style barbeque, seafood, and Lowcountry classics. We’ll take care of the rest.

Briny Sw**e is a seaside-inspired smokehouse and oyster bar featuring Carolina-style barbeque, seafood, and Lowcountry classics served with a side of sass. It’s a local joint where friends and family gather to share meal, laugh and forget about life in the big city to get in on some Southern hospitality and good eatin’. Rosé, bourbon, cocktails and b**r are aplenty and on a steady flow. Whether you’re on vacation, passing by after a long day of work or catching the big game, Briny is that place where all are welcome, from all parts — and no one cares about the rest. Y’all, leave your worries at the door, take a seat, enjoy fine sw**e, w**e and oysters while listening to the sweet sounds of rock, blues, jazz, bluegrass and ho**ey tonk.

We’re open Labor Day! Doors at Noon. Smoked meats, oysters, cocktails, and no reason to cook today.

TONIGHT, Briny Sw**e Smokehouse & Oyster Bar 7:00PM!
NO COVER!

Crying Lions is the combination of childhood jazz roots from all 3 of its core members, sonically combined with the grunge and emo concepts from their lead singer Jesse Gasp. 

Having performed all over the world, the 3 met as both neighbors and online friends; piecing original music along with covers in a way that gently, but chaotically creates a new sound. 

Drake Faso, the brilliant guitarist and keyboardist for the group stems from over 25 years of performance ventures along with the impeccable rhythm and pocket skills of William Gingrich on drums, the group encapsulates the love of music, the passion, and the energy of all things life.
