THE ATMOSPHERE
Poogan's Porch takes up residence in just that, an updated French Quarter Charleston residence that has been converted into four main dining rooms and an outdoor porch for seating options. Each dining room is slightly different, but all convey the feeling of a charmful, welcoming environment with a clean look and beautiful wood floors. The staff here pride themselves in hospitality and enjoy making restaurant goers feel at home.
FUN FACT
The namesake of the restaurant was a small Wheaton Terrier that came with the place when the property was puchased in the mid seventies. The beloved Poogan faithfully sat on the porch welcoming guests and acting as restaurant mascot until the end of his doggie days.
