You could hardly do better than Home Team BBQ on Sullivan’s Island. Is it really all that popular? One recent reviewer noted that “It’s always busy.” Another called it an “Awesome spot for drinks.” And one ecstatic customer said, “Home Team doesn’t deserve five stars. It deserves 100!” Second – Melvin’s Third – Swig & Swine BEST BARTENDER If you’re seeking the services of a master mixologist, then look no further than Tyler at Red Drum Restaurant on Coleman Boulevard. Hit up their happy hour and sip on some refreshing cocktails concocted by the best bartender in town as voted by our readers. And do yourself a favor and order the crab meat tostaditas. Second – Eli, Red Drum Third – Flora, Opal BEST BREAKFAST Rise and shine! Oh, so you’re not a morning person? Don’t worry, you’ll probably become one after you taste the breakfast at Page’s Okra Grill . Our former night-owl readers became grits- eating converts, so make sure to get there early and reserve your spot. They won’t care if you’re in PJ pants. Second – Collective Coffee Third – Eggs Up Grill BEST BRUNCH Fancy a Bloody Mary (some say it’s the best in town) with your biscuits and gravy or a signature Brunch Punch with your Hungry Neck Seafood Platter? Then there’s no other option for that late morning/early- afternoon repast. Head straight for Page’s Okra Grill for the Best Brunch East of the Cooper – or the Mississippi! Second – Red Drum Third – Grace & Grit BEST BUDGET-FRIENDLY MEAL Looking for breakfast, lunch or dinner on a shoestring budget? Hit up Page’s Okra Grill , a local restaurant serving up hearty portions of delicious dishes without being a pain in your wallet. Frugal foodies know this as the place to go to get Southern-style seafood with sides included without forking over part of a mortgage payment. Second – Chick-fil-A Third – Five Loaves Café BEST BURGER The hardest part about eating at Sesame Burgers is deciding what toppings to select. They offer an array of cheeses, veggies and sauces, and then they offer a daily burger special to throw you for another loop. We recommend ordering their sliders, so you can try a variety of burgers and narrow it down for next time. Second – Poe’s Tavern Third – Coleman Public House BEST CATERING Planning a party includes plenty of tedious tasks, so why make serving exceptional food one of them? You’ve got rugs to vacuum for goodness sake. Instead, call Coastal Crust Kitchen , along with our efficient readers – it’s guaranteed to make your guests happy. Then enjoy marking food off the to-do list. Second – Dish & Design Third – Charleston Bay Gourmet BEST CHEF You already know about him from Circa 1886 and his AAA Four Diamond-winning Langdon’s. Now, you can sample Patrick Owens’masterful cuisine at Opal at the Seaside Farms shopping plaza. Featuring Mediterranean-inspired fare, Owens’ Opal is designed as a “friendly, inviting space where people want to gather and enjoy great food.” Second – Nico Romo, Nico Third – Brannon Florie, On Forty-One BEST CRAFT BEER Raise a glass for a frothy toast to Westbrook Brewing for being voted Best for Craft Beer in Mount Pleasant. The Westbrook Claw series is great for the IPA lover,
