Poe’s Tavern: The Place of Literary Dining

Photo by Tiffany Goggin

Turn the page to this arty gastropub stocked with a full bar and local/regional craft beers, serving a menu focused primarily on gourmet hamburgers named for works of Edgar Allan Poe.

The Tell-Tale Heart beats with a single fried egg at the center, the Black Cat is drowning in Edgar’s drunken chili, and the Gold Bug Plus with pimiento is dedicated to his time stationed at Fort Moultrie on Sullivan’s Island where he wrote the story of the same name and wherein lies the original Poe’s Tavern.

Other locales include Atlantic Beach FL and Wrightsville Beach NC, each soaking up its area’s local culture.
Poe’s fourth location in Savannah accepts reservations for large parties and is well situated near Plant Riverside District. A “Poe-fect” reverberation of SAV’s literary leanings.
