Doar Bros. - Menu

When my friend told me they have the best manhattans ever I went to get one fully expecting to tell them they were wrong. Turns out I was wrong, I’m a manhattan connoisseur and I can confidently say this is the best manhattan I’ve ever had. Location, ambiance and service were all perfect too. They even walked down the street to track us down after my wife left her phone on the table. If you’re in the mood for a great cocktail, don’t hesitate to stop in!

Rare for us to go the same place twice on a vacation, but we loved this cocktail bar. Beautiful, intimate space. Service was very friendly. And, most importantly, the drinks were killer. I had a great paper plane on one visit, and a couple of their signature cocktails on another. The one called A Warm Burrow was excellent, sweet, both spiced and spicy. Great balance. The bartenders were also very accommodating about making my wife a range of mocktails, all interesting and tasty. Pro tip definitely order the brown butter truffle popcorn to go along with your drinks. Perfect elevated bar snack.

I love visiting a new city and checking out the best cocktail bar in town. In Charleston, that's Doar Brothers. And unlike most bougie cocktail spots, it also manages to stay comfortable and approachable at the same time. I had the Bourbon and Clyde, which was a delicious dessert cocktail, and another drink that is no longer on the menu and whose name I can't recall. Both were well balanced and delicious. I also had the bread pudding, which took a few minutes to come out but really hit the spot. I ended the night with a carajillo, which is a coffee drink that they make with Licor 43. It was a little sweet with a perfect shot of caffeine to perk me up before heading home. I'll be back at Doar...
