Monday \u2014 Little Palm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of Charleston\u2019s hidden gems,\u00a0Little Palm<\/a> is a breezy poolside cafe and cocktail bar with a lively, spirited environment offering fresh, vibrant cocktails and seasonal, ingredient-driven dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If access to the outdoor pool isn\u2019t enough entertainment for you, they\u2019ve got Charleston\u2019s own Good Trouble Band playing from 7 pm – 9 pm on Music Mondays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also have Happy Hour from 4 pm – 6 pm Monday – Thursday! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuesday \u2014 Commodore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A vintage jazz club boasting a great dance floor and comfy booths, The Commodore<\/a> hosts live music Tuesday through Sunday<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Where<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

However, we recommend checking out Caribbean Tiki Tuesdays<\/strong> for one of the few opportunities to see reggae in Charleston. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let your problems soak away as you drink a pina colada and listen to island music from 9:30 pm – 12:00 am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday \u2014 Burns Alley<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of Charleston\u2019s few remaining dive bars<\/strong>,\u00a0Burns Alley Tavern<\/a>\u00a0is always a great place to score drinks under $10. It’s also one of our favorite late night bars in Charleston, SC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Come join the students and locals for Wednesday karaoke night if you\u2019re looking for a laugh or want to practice the pipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thursday \u2014 Prohibition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re wondering where to go out in Charleston on a Thursday, you’ve gotta check out\u00a0Prohibition<\/a><\/strong> where they have rotating bands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All of these acts go on at 9:30 pm and have no cover<\/strong>! Prohibition is also a worthy stop for food and drinks seven nights a week, offering rustic-chic modern american cuisine and creative cocktails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also have Malin Wagon playing every Tuesday. Meanwhile their weekend brunch has Mike Huhn entertaining guests on Saturdays and New Ghost Town playing bluegrass on Sundays. Perfect for a classic Charleston Sunday Funday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How often do you get live music with a boozy brunch<\/strong>?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday \u2014 Share House<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Owned by the same group as Uptown Social, Share House<\/a> is one of Charleston\u2019s liveliest drinking establishments<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Share<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are multiple sections with different DJs playing<\/strong> throughout the week but our favorite time to go is on Fridays to get your weekend started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The open garage doors connected to the massive patio create the perfect setting to kick back in the sun and ease into the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They will also have at least one, if not two DJs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday \u2014 Cocktail Club<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cocktail Club<\/a> is one of our favorite <\/strong>drinking establishments in all of Charleston. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Their speakeasy-style bar serves delicious craft cocktails<\/strong> and they have great live music<\/strong> on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recommend going for Greg Keys & Company on Saturday nights. Also make sure to check out their rooftop terrace!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday \u2014 Republic Garden & Lounge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Charleston\u2019s hottest nightclub, Republic Garden & Lounge<\/a> is always guaranteed to be a fun night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Arguably their best showing is on Sundays<\/strong> when almost all of the other bars are still recovering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also the setting for Bravo\u2019s latest big hit, Southern Hospitality<\/strong>. So play your cards right and who knows, you may get on TV! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you go on Friday or Saturday, we recommend either getting there early or reserving a VIP table with bottle service so you don\u2019t spend your entire night in line. And if you\u2019re looking for\u00a0late night bars in Charleston SC<\/strong>, Republic should be on your radar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
