The Tattooed Moose

Charleston, South Carolina
General Info
Wouldn't it be nice if there was a cool place where you could get a great sandwich and a cold beer? Maybe you could get a great basket of fries, maybe they'd have awesome happy hour specials with cheap beer and shots? What if we had a neighborhood place that served lunch, dinner, and late-night and it was only 5 minutes from everyone in metro Charleston? These are the questions that led us to open the Tattooed Moose, a laid back pub and sandwich shop with good beer, cheap beer, lots of shots, and a kitchen that's open 'til 1am.

We are staying in Charleston for the first part of my 30th birthday, and we couldn't check in until 3....my favorite animal is Moose, aka my dog's name sooooo when we saw this, my mind was immediately made up. We came for a drink, both getting a local beer, both IPAs. Very delicious and smooth, and for it being 95 degrees outside, they were both refreshing!! Read Less

Met some friends who wanted to try due to recommendation of relatives.  They were correct.  Good service and good food.   Our server was on top of it and very funny.  We all had a few good laughs.  When we were there we found out they were on Diner's, Drive-ins & dives.  And it fits perfectly.  A lot of locals but we did met a family that came because of the TV show.  Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal.  We started with a basket of the Duck Fat Fries that comes with a homemade garlic aioli.   Delicious. One in our group had one of the homemade soups and were just so pleased.  I had to try the Mike's Famous Duck Club which is a triple decker filled with duck confit, applewood smoked bacon and hickory smoked cheddar topped with garlic aioli, lettuce, tomato and red onion.  The sandwich was very good and the duck meat was very tasty.  If you are in the area and looking for a top notch sandwich in a dive bar setting...don't miss the TM.

We went for dinner around 6:30 and had no problem finding a place for the six of us to sit, but by the time we left larger groups were having to wait for tables.I got the thanksgiving sandwich, and it was one of the best sandwiches I have eaten in my life.

Bar food at its best!  Off the beaten path - you must drive or uber from the Market area to get here.  But if it is a Burger, or Duck Club or Cuban sandwich and Duck Dat Fries with Blue Cheese and Garlic that you crave - it is well worth it.Dive bar atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating.  Grab a Sharpie and a beer and scribble anywhere you like - on the tables, on the walls, on the light fixtures, on the barstools...  We have always had great service.  The place does get busy.  Family atmosphere during the day.  Our favorite is a basket of fries smothered on blue cheese sauce that comes with an entire bulb of roasted garlic.  You squeeze the garlic goodness on top of the fries and proceed to indulge.  Absolute heaven.They are famous for Mike's Duck Club which everyone raves about. I prefer the Cuban.  It comes with a small bowl that you fill with citrus - garlic marinade as a dipping sauce.  Yo die for.  The Tattooed Moose Burger is up there with Pie's and Big Gun.  Try a side of Brunswick stew.  This stuff is awesome!

I absolutely love this place and come here every time I visit Charleston. The gourmet sandwiches here are unexpectedly delicious and some of the best sandwiches I've EVER had! I always order the thanksgiving Sammy with duck fat fries on the side, and taste everyone else's food lol. Y'all! The thanksgiving Sammy is literally what it's called...you get Thanksgiving all in one bite, AND it comes with gravy to dip your sandwich in! Omgeeee it's just sooooo good  This visit my boyfriend ordered the duck club and omg it was delicious!!! I love duck confit  he also ordered the chili, which was sooooo friggin good. I legit could've just ate that with some cornbread and been just fine. Anyway, everything is always delicious when I come here, the service is always good, and who doesn't like a chill dive bar vibe?

Tattooed Moose is a cool spot. People have written their names all over the walls and tables and they even provide you a marker to add your own name. The vibe is really chill and laid back, not quite grungy but definitively not into pomp and circumstance being they have water in an Igloo cooler for the servers to use to refill your glass. The menu and bar list looked really cool and even had me thinking I should bring my wife back to this location to have dinner sometime. I had a Cobb Salad and it's certainly a nontraditional Cobb but it was excellent. I'd never had a pickled egg before but now I want more. Now, the issue I'm having is how come the server was hateful to my coworker when they miscommunicated over his drink order. Makes me second guess my willingness to take my wife to dinner at this establishment. I recognize everyone has a bad day but I'm worried my wife will be treated like my coworker. My wife and my coworker do not look like me or any of the servers running the front of the house. Yeah, if you get what I'm saying....that's what I'm worried about. Read Less

If you don't come here while in Charleston, you're doing yourself a disservice. I'm more of a lurker than reviewer on Yelp, but when my wife and I have a fantastic meal, I have to shout out the establishment. Yes, this place is a dive bar, but don't let that discourage you. The beers and especially the food are simply outstanding. I had the tattooed moose burger and it was crazy good. Be warned, it is a double patty - and I'm not a big guy - but I scarfed that burger down. It is easily one of the best burgers I've ever had. Yes, EVER had! My had a chicken salad sandwich which she raved about. The sandwich had pickled tomatoes which were so good. Seriously, if you can't tell by the previous reviews, The Tattooed Moose is totally legit.

We had an opportunity to visit the Tattooed Moose this weekend and it pretty much lived up to the stories told to us. It is a true "dive bar" so there's nothing fancy to it at all. This establishment has a very unique and memorable easy-going vibe and we enjoyed it. We went for lunch before the drive home to the Upstate, so didn't partake of the adult beverages. Service was fine and there are a lot of food options to choose from. We were satisfied with ours, but were not as "wowed" as some people have been. They were on the greasy side, which tended to make the sandwiches a little soggy in fairly short order. So no 5 stars, but no horrors either. I'd say definitely worth visiting at least once. Probably not a place we feel the need to revisit, however. Read Less

My friends live in Charleston and had eaten here before but this was my first visit. So we dropped by for a late lunch last Saturday while we were out doing some shopping nearby. I liked the funky vibe and the food was excellent! Our server was friendly and helpful. I wasn't overly hungry so I got the grilled cheese w/ tomato.  The bread was thick, crusty and delish! Best grilled cheese I have had in a long time. We split a large order of duck fat fries for our table of 4 and there was plenty for all. The fries were so tasty I didn't want to ruin them by adding ketchup. Tried the Pineapple cider & it was yummy!! I'd definitely recommend this place for a casual meal! Read Less

Tattooed Moose came recommended to me in a number of ways:  feedback from locals, YELP & Tripadvisor reviews, and someone I met while in town.  I left wondering how in the world it gets such raving reviews.  My experience was very lacking in both food and service.  I sat down and looked over the menu and was hard-pressed to find anything that sounded worth spending a meal in Charleston, so I just decided upon a couple of appetizers and a beer.  The first beer I ordered they were out of.  OK, strike one.  So I ordered another along with the nacho pork rinds and the duck fat fries.  The beer was cold and that is about the highest compliment I can give this place.  Oh and they had both inside and outside seating available.  The fries were reminiscent of Steak & Shake's skinny fries, or as some would say "shoestring" fries.  I couldn't taste anything remarkable about them but that may have been since they were overcooked.  They had the texture of those potato fries you buy in the container at the grocery store and they didn't taste much better.  They didn't taste bad just overcooked and unremarkable.  The aioli was fine.Next up were the pork rinds with the nacho topping.  Basically tasted like Hormel chili accompanied by some melted cheese whiz.  Whatever.The worst part of the whole experience was the service staff.  They are an apathetic group of servers if ever I have seen one.  No effort whatsoever to develop any rapport with the customer and one was fairly surly.  My suggestion is to give it a miss.  Charleston has an abundance of restaurants serving fantastic food and servers who demonstrate hospitality and that wonderful Charleston charm, neither of which I found at the Moose.

I flew into Charleston at midnight and unlike my town of SF where things are open late, my friend and I had slim pickings to get food past midnight on a Tuesday. We ended up at Tattooed Moose. Let me just say that this place's vibe seems very biker bar BUT everyone was so welcoming and friendly. Our server Lydia was bomb! I went with the suggestions of other reviews which was to get the philly cheesesteak eggrolls and the duck club sandwich with duck fat fries. EVERYTHING was delicious! I would totally come back here if it weren't for the fact that there's so much food to try and so little time. I highly recommend this place! Don't expect a fancy restaurant but DO expect yummy food.

My wife and I have driven past here plenty of times and have always wondered if it was any good. Well we finally got the chance to eat here on May 4, 2019 for dinner.  The staff was friendly and the place appeared to be clean. Although not very large they have both inside and outside dining.     Upon entering we were immediately greeted and then seated. Our server quickly took our drink order and shortly after she took our food order. While we waited for our food I took in the character of this place. It was unique. They have markers on the tables so you can write messages on the walls or tables. Which in away allows you to become part of this place. The beer fridge was unique in the fact that it looked like it was old and constructed out of glass and wood. They also had a pin ball machine which added to the character. Even the floor tiles appeared to be vintage. I could also see part of the kitchen from where I was sitting and noticed that the cooks were wearing gloves while preparing the food which is always nice to know.     The food was very good. They have some unique items on the menu like the Thanksgiving Sammy, which was a turkey sandwich that my wife thought was delicious. I just had a burger and it was very good. We also ordered the duck fat fries. These fries were well seasoned and full of flavor. We also had corn dogs. It is safe to say that all of the food hit the spot.     The service was very fast and good. Our drinks never emptied. I also do not want to forget that we were in here for a total time of less than 45 minutes. So yes it was fast. Yes we will definitely eat here again. Read Less

If you want a divey kind of place with strong drinks and decent, greasy food, this is it. I ended up ordering the burger with pork belly, and while the pork portion was great, the burger was dry and just kind of boring. It just tasted like a plain burger and didn't have any flavors that stood out.  I will say that the duck fat fries with the garlic was worth the hype and that alone is worth coming here.  While I would have prefer a thicker cut of the fries, the combination of the blue cheese sauce and garlic made this the perfect side.

Overall I was very happy. On an absolute scale this is probably a 4 - everything was very satisfactory but nothing dazzled me. However, getting food this good at midnight (I arrived at 11:30pm) is uncommon. I'll give a bonus point for that. Here's a rundown of what I got:* Brunswick stew - was surprisingly good, one of the highlights* Duck club - very good, no complaints, but not the "to die for" feeling that others have expressed. * I got a side of fries, and a side of blue cheese sauce (extra charge), instead of a full basket; was worth it.* Chicken wings - very good quality, meaty; the chipotle maple was weak - the Asian was much better* Egg roll - very good, unique; rib meat and Mac-and-cheese; a little underflavored, but the accompanying salsa was delicious* Dessert - not made in house; huge piece of very good carrot cake (not unique, but very acceptable) Read Less

Excellent!!! We stopped in after visiting the Charleston Tea Plantation for a quick lunch and we already want to go back! We got seated right away and asked our waitress what we should order because we had never been, and we don't regret doing that at all. We ended up getting the duck confit club and the chicken salad sandwich. The duck was absolutely delicious and my boyfriend force fed himself the entire sandwich because it was so big but so so so good! The chicken salad was smoky (unique) but easily one of my top 5 chicken salads ever (and I'm a chicken salad snob). We got fries cooked in duck oil served with a garlic aioli, they were delightful. The waitress also suggested the cauliflower casserole and we were hesitant at first but it was the best way that vegetables could ever be served... covered in bacon and cheese. We will definitely be coming back here when we visit Charleston again! Read Less

Sunday meeting this morning and received spiritual provision so it seems appropriate to attend to the mundanities of life and nourish the body as well. The menu lists an interesting assortment of meals and morsels very few of which contain moose or duck. Requested Brunswick stew, nachos, and a club sandwich before making my way across the dining room for a cup of coffee.MLB is a fan of the stew: delicious with bits of assorted proteins plus corn, peas, limas, onions and stuff in a light broth. Bright and slightly zippy on a cool damp afternoon, could have stood a dark caraway roll on the side so I'll have to bring one next visit. didn't notice the absent corned bread due in part to...Pork nachos: a clever pile of chicharrones served with cheesey chili dip plus sour cream and a small cluster of japs. Seriously, these were some of the largest pork rinds I'd ever encountered and they were so crunchety good. satisfying but not at all bloat inducing, that was the purview of...The Duck Club a multi-tiered meal of duck confetti, applewood bacon, smokey cheddar, plus garlic aioli, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on half a Hawaiin bread. If you've had one you know, if not then I can't really explain it so well. SorryBTW: best fist bump ever! (and no, it's not code for anything) Read Less

This is really a cool spot in Charleston that not many people know about. It's sort of a dive/hipster vibe to the place. Price is about average for Charleston bars but not as high as some. It's a little far uptown but if your willing to head out there it's a cool bar to check out.Draft/beer selection is good and reasonably priced. The IPA's and craft beers are a bit pricey but also normal. Food is really good. Can't go wrong with the burgers. Food is a little expensive for a bar but honestly it's worth it.Bar and wait staff are very attentive and friendly and I've never had a problem going there. My complaints are it's location and some of its pricing on drinks. You do really have to go out of your way to find it but it's worth it. And the price can be off-putting.In summary, this is a cool "hole in the wall" joint to check out if your into a tavern/dive kinda place. Read Less

The food was very good! The roasted garlic and blue cheese fries were my favorite thing!! The blue cheese sauce and the sweetness of the roasted garlic was amazing! I also ordered the gyro sandwich and cauliflower casserole! Seasoned well and full of flavor. The gyro could have used more yogurt sauce and the casserole more hot sauce but still delicious. My only true complaint was the pecan pie. The slice was $7.50 and was super small, it also tasted store bought. Very disappointed and underwhelmed. I didn't even finish it. Read Less

Flew in from out of town and this was our stop to eat and drink on the way to the hotel. They have a few local drafts and the standard bottles. I had the duck triple decker which was flavorful and huge. I also ordered the duck fat fries which were skinny and crispy.

A hidden gem of downtown Charleston. Great beer offerings, amazing food, fair price. We had the moose burger and the pork sandwich, duck fries with garlic aioli and the specialty ciders. The fries are to die for; expertly crispy but not greasy. Hands down, the best garlic aioli I've ever had. Both sandwiches were delicious and came out from the kitten speedily.

We really enjoy this Tattooed Moose location when we are downtown and need our fix of duck fat garlic fries. That is if we can find a parking spot, parking is pretty limited on the road; but you can usually find a spot if you look.We love coming here having a few craft drafts with a Thanksgiving Sammy and order of Duck Fat Fries with Garlic and Blue Cheese. Always an excellent combo; so I haven't switched it up there yet. Service here is always great. We tend to sit at the bar area as we know the bartenders will be there with us the whole time making sure my craft is filled. This is a great spot to go to lunch (or pre-happy hour or happy hour) with you co-workers if you work downtown. It's also a nice spot to meet with friends. As long as your group is small; the building isn't that big. Overall, it's a great spot for some good food and cold beer. Read Less

We rode our motorcycles here for Sunday Brunch. I checked in with my yelp App so I found my favorite member of the Moose Crew and I got myself a free Fist pump!! The parking lot was a little tight but we came on bikes so parking was not an issue for us.  The decor was a mix between  "wilderness/cabin meets the city/dive" LOL. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and took our orders without any snags. The service was immediate and the food was perfectly prepared. I ordered the Monte Cristo-Roasted turkey, ham, and cheese  layered between sweet french toast and served with syrup on the side along with  a side of the duck fat fries. The duck fat gave the fries a seasoned meaty flavor. The duck fat fries  were crispy but not over-fried, stiff or burnt. You can't go wrong with washing down your delicious food with Southern Style Sweet Tea. I don't know if it's the cane sugar, the tea bags or if someone put there foot in it but the tea was phenomenal!  I had to get the stickiness off my hands from the syrup so I went to the bathroom. WHOA!!! The bathroom looked like a graffiti shrine so I had to videotape myself along with all of the thousands of folks who have taken their time from conducting their business to sign in. Overall, our meal was outstanding! We highly recommend this restaurant whenever you frequent the downtown area and you want to get "away from the traffic and the tourists".  A perfect "10" Read Less

We visited the Tattooed Moose to finish off our honeymoon in Charleston, SC. Out of all the restaurants we visited while in the area, we were most excited about this one, based on the many reviews we had read. The restaurant has a lot of character; a local pub with a lot of hand-carved names on the table tops and various pictures stuck to the walls. The giant moose head overlooking the bar creates quite a spectacle. We started with beer. It's always tough navigating the beer selections when in a city away from home, as our go-to local options are not available. I tried a sour beer from D9, with which I was pleased. My husband had a Delirium Tremens, one of his go-to's. Both were served in a tall-boy can stuck inside a glass. For our meal we ordered the famous duck club with the roasted garlic and bleu cheese covered duck-fat fries. We decided to share both the sandwich and the fries, as the portion sizes are rather large and we both had a heavy breakfast. We still took over half of our food with us. I took only a bite or two of the duck club, as it reminded me of pulled pork-and was quite caloric. It was fun squeezing the roasted garlic out of the head, covering the fries with the aromatic flavor. Overall I give the Tattooed Moose a solid 4 Stars, if for nothing but the fun atmosphere and unique food combinations. It is certainly not a restaurant I would dine at frequently, but it was great to try and made for a fun experience. Read Less

Dog friendly! A very nice porch to hang with our two pit bulls over a late dinner.

I was told upfront that this place was a true dive bar, with great food. That is a correct description. The duck club is a signatory dish they offer, my husband loved it. The one star I’m giving is for my entree, I ordered the chicken salad, I wish that I had taken a photo of it for proof of just how disgusting it looked on the plate. The smoked flavor of the meat left a less than desirable taste in the mouth and the bacon strips on the side were greatly undercooked. For the money spent, we should have had a better experience.

I had seen the Tattooed Moose on Yelp while researching the trip, and we decided it was a good place to stop.

My date had a Cuban, and I had the Thanksgiving Sammy (minus the mayo).  Both were great, but I totally preferred mine! The sandwiches came with pickle slices, but no other sides.

It comes with gravy on the side and is just so moist. This is by far one of my favorite restaurants and has the best comfort food in Charleston. Read Less

Whenever I can't make up my mind what I want to eat at a resto, I always look at previous reviews to see what the general consensus is as to what's the best bet. That's how I thankfully took a risk and ordered a sandwich I probably would've never ordered on my own: the Thanksgiving Sammy! I love sweet and savory flavors mixed together and this sandwich does its namesake justice. It takes like the greatest freshest Turkey Day leftovers sandwich! It gives me Monte Cristo vibes but with more complex flavors and less greasiness. I was worried the stuffing might dry out the sandwich or make it crumbly but it works so well. The other ubiquitous item in everyone's reviews are the Duck Fat Fries. Unfortunately when we went on a Tuesday around 8, they were out of Blue Cheese fondue so we just got plain Duck Fat fries. They were solid but nothing I'd go into lengthy, praising detail about. The biggest perk of going to TM? Meeting local doggos! We sat outside & met 3 the night we were there. Winning food & tail wagging floof sightings? I'll definitely be back! Read Less

I originally learned about the Tattooed Moose from one of my favorite TV Shows...Diners, Drive Ins and Dives! You can always trust Guy Fieri and his recommendations. He nailed this one on the head. My husband and I decided to split the Thanksgiving Sammy. We love the concept of Thanksgiving on a Sandwich. The flavors were so spot on between the turkey, cornbread stuffing, cranberry sauce and mayo. Easily, this is one of my favorite sandwiches. With the sandwich being as full as it was with ingredients, we didn't feel the need to get our own which is why we decided to split it. We also split the Duck Fat Fries...wow. We crushed our fries! They were so good. Initially, my husband was hesitate because he didn't like the idea of duck fat. I kept reminding him its just flavoring, mind over matter here. I'm glad he did! If you were to get anything here at the Tattooed Moose I would recommend the Duck Fat Fries...Must, must, must have! Read Less

Tattooed Moose is a great little bar further away from the hustle and bustle of main downtown Charleston roads. But the reason I come here isn't the drinks, it's definitely the food. The duck club and duck fat fries are amazing! The club comes with duck confit, bacon, lettuce, cheddar, red onion, tomatoes, and garlic aioli (I got it without tomatoes). The meat in the club was so tender and the flavors all together were top notch. I especially love their garlic aioli, which the fries come with as well. The club is a bit messy to eat but it's well worth the struggle. The fries themselves are so good; frying them in the duck fat adds such a great crisp and flavor. My friend got the burger with pimento cheese which she enjoyed as well. I will definitely come here again to try the other sandwiches! And of course to eat those fries again. Read Less

My first night in Charleston we came to the tattooed Moose after it came highly recommended for their duck sandwich.  My friends insisted on coming bc the duck was that memorable.When walking in the restaurant looked like a typical dive bar with tables.  We ordered beers and took advantage of the happy hour menu and ordered corn dogs.  The corn dogs came 2 per order for $2.50 but. Unfortunately we did not like them.  The breading was delicious but the hotdog itself was very pink and mushy and tasted funky.  Since we only spent $2.50 we were too bothered by not being able to eat them.For dinner, since I am not a fan of duck, I got the pork sandwich.  The pork wasn't pulled but sliced thin which was excellent.  Lightly covered in tasty bbq sauce and topped with bacon and crispy fried onions...it was amazing!  I also got a side of duck fat fries which were super flavorful.  the fries were thin and my batch they were short so i must have gotten the end of the pile. My friends fries were a bit longer.  Regardless they were delicious.  My friends said their duck sandwiches were really good but not as good as they once remembered.  Either nothing is as good as your first or the sandwich was different from what they had.  If you are looking for a super casual, low key, bar food type of meal then this place is great.  I only rated it 3 stars bc compared to the other restaurants in Charleston there are better options.

For our second night in Charleston, we decided stay cheap and just get beer and fries. But if you're just in the mood for beer and fries, Tattooed Moose is definitely the place to go! I'm a little disappointed that we didn't get a chance to try the duck confit sandwich, but one of these days we'll be back!Anyhow, we were fortunate to be in town on a weeknight. Parking wasn't too terribly challenging and Tattooed Moose was fairly empty so we had plenty of tables to choose from and received our drinks and food immediately. We enjoyed a few draft beer selections and ordered the happy hour duck fat fries with garlic aioli. They were so, so good. The aioli sauce is so delicious and the fries were perfectly crispy.Definitely a great dive to check out! Especially when craving something cold with a side of salty! Read Less

Tattooed Moose is a really great dive bar with great tasting food and has big size portions. I've heard this place serves duck confit, and when I researched this place, I absolutely had to try this place. Boy, was I glad I stopped by.I ordered the Mike's Famous Duck Club for $14.75 which comes with the following: duck confit, applewood smoked bacon, hickory smoked cheddar, topped with garlic aioli, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on sweet Hawaiian bread. The club is a la cartè, and a side of fries cost $2.50. The fries are not regular; the fries are fried in duck fat with a side of garlic aioli. I also got a bowl of gravy for $1. The sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I've ever put into my mouth. The fries were too fatty/greasy, and the garlic aioli complemented the fries really well!

Not sure if I'm a "duck confit" fan but this sandwich did not disappoint and look forward to my next visit to try one of the many other sandwiches on their menu. The one thing I was really looking forward to was the roasted garlic bleu cheese fries.  I didn't enjoy these as much as I'd hoped. Maybe just the day, they were a little soggy for me, yes I know with all the toppings I didn't expect crunch but just didn't enjoy as I'd hoped but could be I was stuffed from the fantastic sandwich!  The atmosphere is fantastic, loved all the "stuff" hanging around and all the handwritten comments from all over.

This place is definitely what you would describe as a dive bar but the food is definitely worth a stop in even if you just get the fries. Like I've said in previous post I'm a pescatarian but this time I had to order the fries that are fried in duck fat; I had both the plain and the garlic bulb-blue cheese fries. Both were good but the plain fries were out of this world awesome! Perfectly crispy and salted (seasoned). The garlic bulb-blue cheese fries were also very good but because of the delicious only for the daring taste bud toppings the fries became slightly soggy but still very tasty.The people I ate with ordered the burger with bacon; if you order the burger be warned you will not be given a choice of temperature as the waitress said "they don't do that here". So you get what you get and don't get upset. - more importantly they said the burger was definitely a good choice. The Cuban was also ordered by a member in my crew and it was reported that it was delicious, slightly different than a normal Cuban because there was a slight sweetness but definitely a repeat dish.

Hubby and I were making our rounds after the Tall Ship adventure and we just had to check this place out. We only stopped for a drink on our drink tour of Charleston so I won't be able to comment on food.We walked in and the inside is small, unless there are magic rooms, what you see is what you'll get. They have outside deck seating which is nice. We had a blast reading the graffiti that was on the deck railings, door frames, tables, and anywhere you could squeeze in something to saying was "Roses are red, Harambe is black, catch me outside, how bow dah".... totally cracked us up. We are obviously easily amused.We had a few people check on us so our order was put in fairly quickly so A+ on customer service.All walks of life go to this place...there were old people like hubby and myself and even older than us, plus you had the hipsters and families and so forth. Really cool, laid back vibe.Can't wait to come back and try their food as it looked really good as it walked by.The only negative thing about this joint is their parking issue. Do not, I repeat, do NOT park in the lot directly to the right of Tattooed Moose or you WILL be towed. They have street parking and a parking lot across the 4-lane road. That 4-laner can be sketchy so be careful. Luckily for us, hubby has mad parallel parking skills, unlike me. Read Less

Tattooed Moose is definitely a divey, low-key, casually hip, hole-in-the-wall bar. However, they do have a full kitchen and a good sized menu of food and I've always been satisfied with my meal (wings, burger, sandwiches). My most recent visit was mainly to grab a couple beers with friends but we couldn't resist sharing some duck fat fries. They're stringy, hand cut, crispy and thin fries served with a garlic aioli. The aioli is tasty but also very rich so I typically end up using more ketchup, but I'm pretty sure the fries would be delicious no matter what you dipped them in. You have two size options, which the waitress explained were basically one potato with the side and two potatoes in the basket. Four of us split the basket and there were definitely more than enough fries for us to all get our fill and fair share. They have a really good variety of beers in bottles/cans, but they only have maybe 5-6 taps offered. Maybe we just tried to order the more popular of the drafts, but two of their options were empty kegs when we ordered so I felt like there was a lot of back and forth with the decision making and they never actually crossed off the tapped out kegs from the chalkboard list. The waitress did bring up glasses (without being asked) to pour our cans/bottles into which is always a nice and appreciated gesture. Read Less

Now I could't leave this review without talking about their wings...because they are some of the best wings I have ever had! They fry them in duck fat and they were amazing - it also helped that they were on the happy hour special so they were .75cents a wing and they were big!

For a dive bar, this place has really good food and service and is really one of a kind. At the beginning of their night, they started playing 80's music (e.g. Micheal Jackson's Just Beat it) and then they switched to throw back feel good 2000's music which I really liked and couldn't help but sing along to. The restaurant is dimly light and they have random signs, moose/deer heads on the walls, and random posters on the wall as decor. They have two arcade games on the left side of the restaurant, a pinball machine and a deer hunting simulator. Their restrooms are labeled with unicorns and have lots of graffiti which is fitting for the dive bar kinda environment.I'm considering coming here for Thanksgiving this year because of how good their Thanksgiving Sammy tastes! It comes complete with turkey, cranberry sauce, cornbread stuffing, and even gravy on the side. Their duck fat fries are also very AMAZING and they came out as a huge serving portion and were very crispy and flavorful. For drinks, we got lemon drop shots and vodka cranberries which were all good.I have no complaints about their service. I went with my friends for a late dinner on a Sunday night and they were a little busy. We got seated pretty quick and got good service when it came to our food and drinks.Overall, this place is a really cool and hip place that's fun for a chill night with friends.

I lived in South Carolina for almost a year and somehow never got around to visiting the Tattooed Moose. I was recently back in Charleston for work, and made sure to stop in. I stopped by for a late night dinner on my way to the hotel from the airport- the notorious duck club with duck fat fries. It was delightful. I got so excited about the fries, I didn't save enough room to finish the entire club. This place looks a little grungy compared to most restaurants/bars in Charleston. Once you get settled in, this place becomes kind of cozy. I had planned on grabbing some food and moving along to get some work done before the next day; I instead spent several hours here and made a few new friends at the bar. Service was okay.

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a cool place where you could get a great sandwich and a cold beer? Maybe you could get a great basket of fries, maybe they'd have awesome happy hour specials with cheap beer and shots? What if we had a neighborhood place that served lunch, dinner, and late-night and it was only 5 minutes from everyone in metro Charleston? These are the questions that led us to open the Tattooed Moose, a laid back pub and sandwich shop with good beer, cheap beer, lots of shots, and a kitchen that's open 'til 1am.

One in our group had one of the homemade soups and were just so pleased.  I had to try the Mike's Famous Duck Club which is a triple decker filled with duck confit, applewood smoked bacon and hickory smoked cheddar topped with garlic aioli, lettuce, tomato and red onion.  The sandwich was very good and the duck meat was very tasty.  If you are in the area and looking for a top notch sandwich in a dive bar setting...don't miss the TM.

Bar food at its best!  Off the beaten path - you must drive or uber from the Market area to get here.  But if it is a Burger, or Duck Club or Cuban sandwich and Duck Dat Fries with Blue Cheese and Garlic that you crave - it is well worth it.Dive bar atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating.  Grab a Sharpie and a beer and scribble anywhere you like - on the tables, on the walls, on the light fixtures, on the barstools...  We have always had great service.  The place does get busy.  Family atmosphere during the day.  Our favorite is a basket of fries smothered on blue cheese sauce that comes with an entire bulb of roasted garlic.  You squeeze the garlic goodness on top of the fries and proceed to indulge.  Absolute heaven.They are famous for Mike's Duck Club which everyone raves about. I prefer the Cuban.  It comes with a small bowl that you fill with citrus - garlic marinade as a dipping sauce.  Yo die for.  The Tattooed Moose Burger is up there with Pie's and Big Gun.  Try a side of Brunswick stew.  This stuff is awesome!

Tattooed Moose is a cool spot. People have written their names all over the walls and tables and they even provide you a marker to add your own name. The vibe is really chill and laid back, not quite grungy but definitively not into pomp and circumstance being they have water in an Igloo cooler for the servers to use to refill your glass. The menu and bar list looked really cool and even had me thinking I should bring my wife back to this location to have dinner sometime. I had a Cobb Salad and it's certainly a nontraditional Cobb but it was excellent. I'd never had a pickled egg before but now I want more. Now, the issue I'm having is how come the server was hateful to my coworker when they miscommunicated over his drink order. Makes me second guess my willingness to take my wife to dinner at this establishment. I recognize everyone has a bad day but I'm worried my wife will be treated like my coworker. My wife and my coworker do not look like me or any of the servers running the front of the house. Yeah, if you get what I'm saying....that's what I'm worried about. Read Less

We had an opportunity to visit the Tattooed Moose this weekend and it pretty much lived up to the stories told to us. It is a true "dive bar" so there's nothing fancy to it at all. This establishment has a very unique and memorable easy-going vibe and we enjoyed it. We went for lunch before the drive home to the Upstate, so didn't partake of the adult beverages. Service was fine and there are a lot of food options to choose from. We were satisfied with ours, but were not as "wowed" as some people have been. They were on the greasy side, which tended to make the sandwiches a little soggy in fairly short order. So no 5 stars, but no horrors either. I'd say definitely worth visiting at least once. Probably not a place we feel the need to revisit, however. Read Less

The fries were so tasty I didn't want to ruin them by adding ketchup. Tried the Pineapple cider & it was yummy!! I'd definitely recommend this place for a casual meal! Read Less

Tattooed Moose came recommended to me in a number of ways:  feedback from locals, YELP & Tripadvisor reviews, and someone I met while in town.  I left wondering how in the world it gets such raving reviews.  My experience was very lacking in both food and service.  I sat down and looked over the menu and was hard-pressed to find anything that sounded worth spending a meal in Charleston, so I just decided upon a couple of appetizers and a beer.  The first beer I ordered they were out of.  OK, strike one.  So I ordered another along with the nacho pork rinds and the duck fat fries.  The beer was cold and that is about the highest compliment I can give this place.  Oh and they had both inside and outside seating available.  The fries were reminiscent of Steak & Shake's skinny fries, or as some would say "shoestring" fries.  I couldn't taste anything remarkable about them but that may have been since they were overcooked.  They had the texture of those potato fries you buy in the container at the grocery store and they didn't taste much better.  They didn't taste bad just overcooked and unremarkable.  The aioli was fine.Next up were the pork rinds with the nacho topping.  Basically tasted like Hormel chili accompanied by some melted cheese whiz.  Whatever.The worst part of the whole experience was the service staff.  They are an apathetic group of servers if ever I have seen one.  No effort whatsoever to develop any rapport with the customer and one was fairly surly.  My suggestion is to give it a miss.  Charleston has an abundance of restaurants serving fantastic food and servers who demonstrate hospitality and that wonderful Charleston charm, neither of which I found at the Moose.

My wife and I have driven past here plenty of times and have always wondered if it was any good. Well we finally got the chance to eat here on May 4, 2019 for dinner.  The staff was friendly and the place appeared to be clean. Although not very large they have both inside and outside dining.     Upon entering we were immediately greeted and then seated. Our server quickly took our drink order and shortly after she took our food order. While we waited for our food I took in the character of this place. It was unique. They have markers on the tables so you can write messages on the walls or tables. Which in away allows you to become part of this place. The beer fridge was unique in the fact that it looked like it was old and constructed out of glass and wood. They also had a pin ball machine which added to the character. Even the floor tiles appeared to be vintage. I could also see part of the kitchen from where I was sitting and noticed that the cooks were wearing gloves while preparing the food which is always nice to know.     The food was very good. They have some unique items on the menu like the Thanksgiving Sammy, which was a turkey sandwich that my wife thought was delicious. I just had a burger and it was very good. We also ordered the duck fat fries. These fries were well seasoned and full of flavor. We also had corn dogs. It is safe to say that all of the food hit the spot.     The service was very fast and good. Our drinks never emptied. I also do not want to forget that we were in here for a total time of less than 45 minutes. So yes it was fast. Yes we will definitely eat here again. Read Less

If you want a divey kind of place with strong drinks and decent, greasy food, this is it. I ended up ordering the burger with pork belly, and while the pork portion was great, the burger was dry and just kind of boring. It just tasted like a plain burger and didn't have any flavors that stood out.  I will say that the duck fat fries with the garlic was worth the hype and that alone is worth coming here.  While I would have prefer a thicker cut of the fries, the combination of the blue cheese sauce and garlic made this the perfect side.

Overall I was very happy. On an absolute scale this is probably a 4 - everything was very satisfactory but nothing dazzled me. However, getting food this good at midnight (I arrived at 11:30pm) is uncommon. I'll give a bonus point for that. Here's a rundown of what I got:* Brunswick stew - was surprisingly good, one of the highlights* Duck club - very good, no complaints, but not the "to die for" feeling that others have expressed. * I got a side of fries, and a side of blue cheese sauce (extra charge), instead of a full basket; was worth it.* Chicken wings - very good quality, meaty; the chipotle maple was weak - the Asian was much better* Egg roll - very good, unique; rib meat and Mac-and-cheese; a little underflavored, but the accompanying salsa was delicious* Dessert - not made in house; huge piece of very good carrot cake (not unique, but very acceptable) Read Less

We got seated right away and asked our waitress what we should order because we had never been, and we don't regret doing that at all.

The duck was absolutely delicious and my boyfriend force fed himself the entire sandwich because it was so big but so so so good! The chicken salad was smoky (unique) but easily one of my top 5 chicken salads ever (and I'm a chicken salad snob). We got fries cooked in duck oil served with a garlic aioli, they were delightful.

Sunday meeting this morning and received spiritual provision so it seems appropriate to attend to the mundanities of life and nourish the body as well. The menu lists an interesting assortment of meals and morsels very few of which contain moose or duck. Requested Brunswick stew, nachos, and a club sandwich before making my way across the dining room for a cup of coffee.MLB is a fan of the stew: delicious with bits of assorted proteins plus corn, peas, limas, onions and stuff in a light broth. Bright and slightly zippy on a cool damp afternoon, could have stood a dark caraway roll on the side so I'll have to bring one next visit. didn't notice the absent corned bread due in part to...Pork nachos: a clever pile of chicharrones served with cheesey chili dip plus sour cream and a small cluster of japs. Seriously, these were some of the largest pork rinds I'd ever encountered and they were so crunchety good. satisfying but not at all bloat inducing, that was the purview of...The Duck Club a multi-tiered meal of duck confetti, applewood bacon, smokey cheddar, plus garlic aioli, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on half a Hawaiin bread.

This is really a cool spot in Charleston that not many people know about. It's sort of a dive/hipster vibe to the place. Price is about average for Charleston bars but not as high as some. It's a little far uptown but if your willing to head out there it's a cool bar to check out.Draft/beer selection is good and reasonably priced.

Flew in from out of town and this was our stop to eat and drink on the way to the hotel. They have a few local drafts and the standard bottles. I had the duck triple decker which was flavorful and huge. I also ordered the duck fat fries which were skinny and crispy. The beer I had was awful and when the bartender heard I disliked it she asked what I did want and switched it out at no charge. Overall I would definitely hit this place again. Read Less

A hidden gem of downtown Charleston. Great beer offerings, amazing food, fair price. We had the moose burger and the pork sandwich, duck fries with garlic aioli and the specialty ciders. The fries are to die for; expertly crispy but not greasy. Hands down, the best garlic aioli I've ever had. Both sandwiches were delicious and came out from the kitten speedily. Really mellow and cool environment. The staff was helpful and friendly as well. Highly recommend to anyone who's looking for a new place with great food. Read Less

We really enjoy this Tattooed Moose location when we are downtown and need our fix of duck fat garlic fries. That is if we can find a parking spot, parking is pretty limited on the road; but you can usually find a spot if you look.We love coming here having a few craft drafts with a Thanksgiving Sammy and order of Duck Fat Fries with Garlic and Blue Cheese. Always an excellent combo; so I haven't switched it up there yet. Service here is always great. We tend to sit at the bar area as we know the bartenders will be there with us the whole time making sure my craft is filled. This is a great spot to go to lunch (or pre-happy hour or happy hour) with you co-workers if you work downtown. It's also a nice spot to meet with friends. As long as your group is small; the building isn't that big. Overall, it's a great spot for some good food and cold beer. Read Less

We rode our motorcycles here for Sunday Brunch. I checked in with my yelp App so I found my favorite member of the Moose Crew and I got myself a free Fist pump!! The parking lot was a little tight but we came on bikes so parking was not an issue for us.  The decor was a mix between  "wilderness/cabin meets the city/dive" LOL. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and took our orders without any snags. The service was immediate and the food was perfectly prepared. I ordered the Monte Cristo-Roasted turkey, ham, and cheese  layered between sweet french toast and served with syrup on the side along with  a side of the duck fat fries. The duck fat gave the fries a seasoned meaty flavor. The duck fat fries  were crispy but not over-fried, stiff or burnt. You can't go wrong with washing down your delicious food with Southern Style Sweet Tea. I don't know if it's the cane sugar, the tea bags or if someone put there foot in it but the tea was phenomenal!  I had to get the stickiness off my hands from the syrup so I went to the bathroom. WHOA!!! The bathroom looked like a graffiti shrine so I had to videotape myself along with all of the thousands of folks who have taken their time from conducting their business to sign in. Overall, our meal was outstanding! We highly recommend this restaurant whenever you frequent the downtown area and you want to get "away from the traffic and the tourists".  A perfect "10" Read Less

We visited the Tattooed Moose to finish off our honeymoon in Charleston, SC. Out of all the restaurants we visited while in the area, we were most excited about this one, based on the many reviews we had read. The restaurant has a lot of character; a local pub with a lot of hand-carved names on the table tops and various pictures stuck to the walls. The giant moose head overlooking the bar creates quite a spectacle. We started with beer. It's always tough navigating the beer selections when in a city away from home, as our go-to local options are not available. I tried a sour beer from D9, with which I was pleased. My husband had a Delirium Tremens, one of his go-to's. Both were served in a tall-boy can stuck inside a glass. For our meal we ordered the famous duck club with the roasted garlic and bleu cheese covered duck-fat fries. We decided to share both the sandwich and the fries, as the portion sizes are rather large and we both had a heavy breakfast. We still took over half of our food with us. I took only a bite or two of the duck club, as it reminded me of pulled pork-and was quite caloric. It was fun squeezing the roasted garlic out of the head, covering the fries with the aromatic flavor. Overall I give the Tattooed Moose a solid 4 Stars, if for nothing but the fun atmosphere and unique food combinations. It is certainly not a restaurant I would dine at frequently, but it was great to try and made for a fun experience. Read Less

I was told upfront that this place was a true dive bar, with great food. That is a correct description. The duck club is a signatory dish they offer, my husband loved it. The one star I’m giving is for my entree, I ordered the chicken salad, I wish that I had taken a photo of it for proof of just how disgusting it looked on the plate. The smoked flavor of the meat left a less than desirable taste in the mouth and the bacon strips on the side were greatly undercooked. For the money spent, we should have had a better experience.

I had seen the Tattooed Moose on Yelp while researching the trip, and we decided it was a good place to stop.

My date had a Cuban, and I had the Thanksgiving Sammy (minus the mayo).  Both were great, but I totally preferred mine! The sandwiches came with pickle slices, but no other sides.

Whenever I can't make up my mind what I want to eat at a resto, I always look at previous reviews to see what the general consensus is as to what's the best bet. That's how I thankfully took a risk and ordered a sandwich I probably would've never ordered on my own: the Thanksgiving Sammy! I love sweet and savory flavors mixed together and this sandwich does its namesake justice. It takes like the greatest freshest Turkey Day leftovers sandwich! It gives me Monte Cristo vibes but with more complex flavors and less greasiness. I was worried the stuffing might dry out the sandwich or make it crumbly but it works so well. The other ubiquitous item in everyone's reviews are the Duck Fat Fries. Unfortunately when we went on a Tuesday around 8, they were out of Blue Cheese fondue so we just got plain Duck Fat fries. They were solid but nothing I'd go into lengthy, praising detail about. The biggest perk of going to TM? Meeting local doggos! We sat outside & met 3 the night we were there.

I originally learned about the Tattooed Moose from one of my favorite TV Shows...Diners, Drive Ins and Dives! You can always trust Guy Fieri and his recommendations. He nailed this one on the head. My husband and I decided to split the Thanksgiving Sammy. We love the concept of Thanksgiving on a Sandwich. The flavors were so spot on between the turkey, cornbread stuffing, cranberry sauce and mayo. Easily, this is one of my favorite sandwiches. With the sandwich being as full as it was with ingredients, we didn't feel the need to get our own which is why we decided to split it. We also split the Duck Fat Fries...wow. We crushed our fries! They were so good. Initially, my husband was hesitate because he didn't like the idea of duck fat. I kept reminding him its just flavoring, mind over matter here. I'm glad he did! If you were to get anything here at the Tattooed Moose I would recommend the Duck Fat Fries...Must, must, must have! Read Less

Tattooed Moose is a great little bar further away from the hustle and bustle of main downtown Charleston roads. But the reason I come here isn't the drinks, it's definitely the food. The duck club and duck fat fries are amazing! The club comes with duck confit, bacon, lettuce, cheddar, red onion, tomatoes, and garlic aioli (I got it without tomatoes). The meat in the club was so tender and the flavors all together were top notch. I especially love their garlic aioli, which the fries come with as well. The club is a bit messy to eat but it's well worth the struggle. The fries themselves are so good; frying them in the duck fat adds such a great crisp and flavor. My friend got the burger with pimento cheese which she enjoyed as well. I will definitely come here again to try the other sandwiches! And of course to eat those fries again. Read Less

My first night in Charleston we came to the tattooed Moose after it came highly recommended for their duck sandwich.  My friends insisted on coming bc the duck was that memorable.When walking in the restaurant looked like a typical dive bar with tables.  We ordered beers and took advantage of the happy hour menu and ordered corn dogs.  The corn dogs came 2 per order for $2.50 but. Unfortunately we did not like them.  The breading was delicious but the hotdog itself was very pink and mushy and tasted funky.  Since we only spent $2.50 we were too bothered by not being able to eat them.For dinner, since I am not a fan of duck, I got the pork sandwich.  The pork wasn't pulled but sliced thin which was excellent.  Lightly covered in tasty bbq sauce and topped with bacon and crispy fried onions...it was amazing!  I also got a side of duck fat fries which were super flavorful.  the fries were thin and my batch they were short so i must have gotten the end of the pile. My friends fries were a bit longer.  Regardless they were delicious.  My friends said their duck sandwiches were really good but not as good as they once remembered.  Either nothing is as good as your first or the sandwich was different from what they had.  If you are looking for a super casual, low key, bar food type of meal then this place is great.  I only rated it 3 stars bc compared to the other restaurants in Charleston there are better options.

Customer service was great. Our server was very fast and checked on us regularly. I didn't like the fact that my sandwich was so soggy that I had to turn it upside down to prevent it from falling apart. It was literally wet. The cheese looked kind of old too. Kind of like the way it looks when it's been sitting out for a while. The flavor was great! I only wish that it wasn't so soggy. At least the sandwich was warm. Read Less

For our second night in Charleston, we decided stay cheap and just get beer and fries. But if you're just in the mood for beer and fries, Tattooed Moose is definitely the place to go! I'm a little disappointed that we didn't get a chance to try the duck confit sandwich, but one of these days we'll be back!Anyhow, we were fortunate to be in town on a weeknight. Parking wasn't too terribly challenging and Tattooed Moose was fairly empty so we had plenty of tables to choose from and received our drinks and food immediately. We enjoyed a few draft beer selections and ordered the happy hour duck fat fries with garlic aioli. They were so, so good. The aioli sauce is so delicious and the fries were perfectly crispy.Definitely a great dive to check out! Especially when craving something cold with a side of salty! Read Less

Tattooed Moose is a really great dive bar with great tasting food and has big size portions. I've heard this place serves duck confit, and when I researched this place, I absolutely had to try this place. Boy, was I glad I stopped by.I ordered the Mike's Famous Duck Club for $14.75 which comes with the following: duck confit, applewood smoked bacon, hickory smoked cheddar, topped with garlic aioli, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on sweet Hawaiian bread. The club is a la cartè, and a side of fries cost $2.50. The fries are not regular; the fries are fried in duck fat with a side of garlic aioli. I also got a bowl of gravy for $1. The sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I've ever put into my mouth. The fries were too fatty/greasy, and the garlic aioli complemented the fries really well! I would recommend the Mike's Famous Duck Club! Read Less

Finally made it to try the famous "Duck Club" I was not disappointed.  The Hawaiian bread used really made the sandwich for me.  The garlic aioli sauce is outstanding. Not sure if I'm a "duck confit" fan but this sandwich did not disappoint and look forward to my next visit to try one of the many other sandwiches on their menu. The one thing I was really looking forward to was the roasted garlic bleu cheese fries.  I didn't enjoy these as much as I'd hoped. Maybe just the day, they were a little soggy for me, yes I know with all the toppings I didn't expect crunch but just didn't enjoy as I'd hoped but could be I was stuffed from the fantastic sandwich!  The atmosphere is fantastic, loved all the "stuff" hanging around and all the handwritten comments from all over. Service was great, friendly and fast. Look forward to my next visit. Read Less

This place is definitely what you would describe as a dive bar but the food is definitely worth a stop in even if you just get the fries. Like I've said in previous post I'm a pescatarian but this time I had to order the fries that are fried in duck fat; I had both the plain and the garlic bulb-blue cheese fries. Both were good but the plain fries were out of this world awesome! Perfectly crispy and salted (seasoned). The garlic bulb-blue cheese fries were also very good but because of the delicious only for the daring taste bud toppings the fries became slightly soggy but still very tasty.The people I ate with ordered the burger with bacon; if you order the burger be warned you will not be given a choice of temperature as the waitress said "they don't do that here". So you get what you get and don't get upset. - more importantly they said the burger was definitely a good choice. The Cuban was also ordered by a member in my crew and it was reported that it was delicious, slightly different than a normal Cuban because there was a slight sweetness but definitely a repeat dish.

Hubby and I were making our rounds after the Tall Ship adventure and we just had to check this place out. We only stopped for a drink on our drink tour of Charleston so I won't be able to comment on food.We walked in and the inside is small, unless there are magic rooms, what you see is what you'll get. They have outside deck seating which is nice. We had a blast reading the graffiti that was on the deck railings, door frames, tables, and anywhere you could squeeze in something to saying was "Roses are red, Harambe is black, catch me outside, how bow dah".... totally cracked us up. We are obviously easily amused.We had a few people check on us so our order was put in fairly quickly so A+ on customer service.All walks of life go to this place...there were old people like hubby and myself and even older than us, plus you had the hipsters and families and so forth. Really cool, laid back vibe.Can't wait to come back and try their food as it looked really good as it walked by.The only negative thing about this joint is their parking issue. Do not, I repeat, do NOT park in the lot directly to the right of Tattooed Moose or you WILL be towed. They have street parking and a parking lot across the 4-lane road. That 4-laner can be sketchy so be careful. Luckily for us, hubby has mad parallel parking skills, unlike me. Read Less

Tattooed Moose is definitely a divey, low-key, casually hip, hole-in-the-wall bar. However, they do have a full kitchen and a good sized menu of food and I've always been satisfied with my meal (wings, burger, sandwiches). My most recent visit was mainly to grab a couple beers with friends but we couldn't resist sharing some duck fat fries. They're stringy, hand cut, crispy and thin fries served with a garlic aioli. The aioli is tasty but also very rich so I typically end up using more ketchup, but I'm pretty sure the fries would be delicious no matter what you dipped them in. You have two size options, which the waitress explained were basically one potato with the side and two potatoes in the basket. Four of us split the basket and there were definitely more than enough fries for us to all get our fill and fair share. They have a really good variety of beers in bottles/cans, but they only have maybe 5-6 taps offered. Maybe we just tried to order the more popular of the drafts, but two of their options were empty kegs when we ordered so I felt like there was a lot of back and forth with the decision making and they never actually crossed off the tapped out kegs from the chalkboard list. The waitress did bring up glasses (without being asked) to pour our cans/bottles into which is always a nice and appreciated gesture. Read Less

After checking out a few local breweries we came across the Tattooed Moose and I am sure glad we did - we hit up this place at just the right time: Happy Hour! They have awesome happy hour specials for drinks and food!We were are the restaurant around 4pm on a Monday afternoon (vacation!) so the place was busy but not too crowded so we grabbed a table and a couple of beers. The place is COVERED in signatures, quotes, and "Bryan wuz here" 's so it was definitely entertaining to read these. Now I could't leave this review without talking about their wings...because they are some of the best wings I have ever had! They fry them in duck fat and they were amazing - it also helped that they were on the happy hour special so they were .75cents a wing and they were big! The waiter also mentioned the fries (which are also fried in duck fat) we didn't try those but he spoke highly of them and we would give them a try when we go back! Read Less

For a dive bar, this place has really good food and service and is really one of a kind. At the beginning of their night, they started playing 80's music (e.g. Micheal Jackson's Just Beat it) and then they switched to throw back feel good 2000's music which I really liked and couldn't help but sing along to. The restaurant is dimly light and they have random signs, moose/deer heads on the walls, and random posters on the wall as decor. They have two arcade games on the left side of the restaurant, a pinball machine and a deer hunting simulator. Their restrooms are labeled with unicorns and have lots of graffiti which is fitting for the dive bar kinda environment.I'm considering coming here for Thanksgiving this year because of how good their Thanksgiving Sammy tastes! It comes complete with turkey, cranberry sauce, cornbread stuffing, and even gravy on the side. Their duck fat fries are also very AMAZING and they came out as a huge serving portion and were very crispy and flavorful. For drinks, we got lemon drop shots and vodka cranberries which were all good.I have no complaints about their service. I went with my friends for a late dinner on a Sunday night and they were a little busy. We got seated pretty quick and got good service when it came to our food and drinks.Overall, this place is a really cool and hip place that's fun for a chill night with friends.

I lived in South Carolina for almost a year and somehow never got around to visiting the Tattooed Moose. I was recently back in Charleston for work, and made sure to stop in. I stopped by for a late night dinner on my way to the hotel from the airport- the notorious duck club with duck fat fries. It was delightful. I got so excited about the fries, I didn't save enough room to finish the entire club. This place looks a little grungy compared to most restaurants/bars in Charleston. Once you get settled in, this place becomes kind of cozy. I had planned on grabbing some food and moving along to get some work done before the next day; I instead spent several hours here and made a few new friends at the bar. Service was okay. Definitely could have been better.Some day when I'm back in town I'll be sure to stop by and try something else off the menu. Read Less

The bread it comes with is heavenly as well. Each (small bite) we had was delightful and I'd definitely recommend anyone try this sandwich if they are passing through the area.
