Although KSG said farewell to its location in the Holy City where the namesake originated, it expanded to new locations in Mount Pleasant, Myrtle Beach, and Kiawah…some of the best South Carolina locations minutes from pristine Lowcountry beaches.

Open daily for lunch, dinner, drinks, and desserts at all three locations. KSG is the place to be.

As South Carolina’s favorite sports bar, Charleston City Paper named King Street Grille the “Best Sports Bar” for over a decade, and KSG was selected “Best of the Beach” by Surge in Myrtle Beach.

Krazy Owls

https://krazyowls.com/
3157A Maybank Hwy Johns Island, SC 29455

Some people know when to give up. Others know when they are beaten. Krazy Owls founder Al Thompson isn’t that smart; in fact, his nickname, “Crazy Al” (and all those two words stand for,) is the reason for the name of this place. Who else could gain a type of fame for a thing like pushing a bed for several miles? Who else would break the biggest strings learning to tune a bass guitar, then a few days later have figured out how to actually play the thing? He’s won marketing awards and advertising awards though he’s never in his life taken a marketing class. Really, who does that kind of thing? Well, Al, it seems. He’s one of those people who do things because he doesn’t know they can’t be done. The word “impossible’ makes his eyebrow twitch, mostly in a downward position. Maybe he doesn’t know what it means.

The story of Krazy Owls was launched when, after over forty years in the fast food business, things changed. Al found himself faced with the prospect of leisurely retirement or working his tail off, creating a fun place to enjoy a great meal. Never a person to sit around and relax, Al’s crazy brain juggled several ideas as he searched for a different concept in the world of restaurant excellence. Always having appreciated the films and adventurous images found in the world of steampunk aesthetics, he, and a few friends, began developing ideas based on just that subject. What has resulted is Krazy Owls, the first family-friendly steampunk/ sports bar restaurant in the Charleston Area. It is a place focused on service and good food in a friendly atmosphere.

One of the best things is that Krazy Owls will be a little different with each visit. Our plans include adding more and more steampunk items and devices. We’ll have fun with outdoor events on our extended patio. Musical entertainment, plus events like dinner theater with Victorian dignitaries, will be making an appearance, and you, our guests, can be a part of the show! You’ll meet people like Thomas Edison, Marconi, Tesla, and perhaps even Queen Victoria herself. Who knows?

We hope you like it here at Krazy Owls, because it’s you who will make it great. We are quite excited to be a part of the John’s Island community and look forward to many adventurous years.

FOR RESERVATIONS CALL: 843-768-5680

Join us for exclusive outdoor activities on the beautiful secluded Kiawah Island, South Carolina's finest barrier island. Tidal Trails has been offering guided nature tours, instruction and customized tours since 1997. We want our guests to walk away with an experience that they can share with friends and family for years to come. Come see why many of our guests return year after year!

There is something for everyone at Tidal Trails: whether it is a chance to get closer to dolphins, to observe the abundant bird life, or to learn a new skill and meet some new friends. We are a unique adventure company in that we only cater to a select few that join us on our private Kiawah Island adventures. We pride ourselves on our ability to cater to our customer's needs. Our guides and instructors are highly trained and enthusiastic about sharing their love of the water and nature with our guests. Our equipment has been specifically selected for the Kiawah area and to suit the needs of our clients. Our comfortable, stable touring kayaks and stand up paddleboards (SUP) offer the perfect way to view wildlife and discover these relaxing outdoor activities. No experience is necessary and all guided tours include an introductory clinic. Our power boats are selected for their ample room and comfort. They are the perfect platform to enjoy nature and explore more of the island and remote local waterways. Tidal Trails' self-guided tours include top quality kayaks, stand up paddleboards and surfboards. Our goal is making wonderful memories.

Kiawah boasts 11 miles of pristine beach located just south of historic Charleston, South Carolina. We have been teaching surfing on the island for over a decade. Join our experienced surf instructors for an exciting fun filled lesson. If you have never surfed before, Kiawah Island is a great place to learn: shallow water, easy rolling waves and its warm! We start off on the beach with the basic surfing techniques, ocean awareness and safety. Then we head out to the water to catch some waves. We believe it is a great way for kids to get excited about a new sport. For families it is a wonderful way to get together, exercise and try something new.

Please note:
Kiawah Island is a private gated community and is restricted to KI property owners and property owner guests only

The Medical Spa at Kiawah

The Medical Spa

1 Beachwalker Drive Kiawah Island, SC, 29455
The Medical Spa at Kiawah was opened by Owner and Licensed Aesthetician Rebecca Williams in October 2017 to provide medical spa services to the residents and visitors of Johns, Kiawah and Seabrook islands.

A medical spa operates under the direction of a Medical Director (ours is Dr. Emily Darr) and uses medical-grade products and treatments. You'll find many of the same services as traditional spas, in addition to things like Botox injections, chemical peels, spray tanning, microneedling and microblading.
