Coastal Mystique Surrounding Bowens Island Restaurant
If you are from the Lowcountry, you know of the great food and coastal ambiance of Bowens Island Restaurant. It is undeniable that the freshest seafood is right off the boat and here in the Charleston area, we take pride in that. Bowen’s Island is not only known for great local seafood, but their contributions to the community, offering its open atmosphere for local area fund raisers, is legendary. This establishment is a foundation in Charleston and one of the iconic places that defines the small town coastal appeal that we have come to know and love.
From its memorable entrance sign, the rocky roadway filled with pot holes, mounds of oyster shells, rustic building and stunning skyline, the Bowens Island Experience truly is that, an experience. Tip: If you want to make a trip over, come for the food, but stay for the sunset. Don’t forget to order the Frogmore Stew and hushpuppies.

Ate at your original cinder block restaurant with old wooden tables ( no, I never carved my initials) back in the mid-60’s as a Citadel cadet. Plan to stay in Folly Beach this September for a “room-mates reunion” and Bowen’s Island is a DEFINITE for all of us. Memories will abound!
Hey…. JC my old Citadel roomie…. he is on target. Wife and I came back to Bowens Island and the greatest low country restaurant I know of not long after the fire. Ate on the dock [sitting by the dock of the bay as it were] at a picnic bench and got my own beer out of the old cooler. Foam plates and plastic. God it was great. What ever you guys do please keep the restaurant alive. I still cannot match your crab cake recipe, but I tinker with it every chance I get. Getting closer, but you guys are the greatest. See you in September and again for the reunion. Citadel ’68.
