Lillian’s Petite Market & Eatery | Charleston Café, Bar & Brunch

ROOTED IN PLACE. MADE FOR GATHERING.

Located in Charleston’s historic Westside, Lillian’s is a neighborhood eatery rooted in place, where thoughtful food, genuine hospitality, and community come together.

Our menus are shaped by what is growing, being caught, and produced around us, with ingredients from local growers, fishermen, ranchers, and makers. From locally roasted coffee and breakfast in the morning to lunch, weekend brunch, Happy Hour, and dinner, Lillian’s evolves throughout the day while always feeling like the same place.

At the bar, you’ll find handcrafted cocktails featuring house made seasonal ingredients, local beer, and a thoughtful wine list focused on small producers and low intervention wines.

Our market extends that same philosophy beyond the table with fresh flowers, prepared foods, wine, gifts, and goods from local makers. We also bring Lillian’s to gatherings throughout Charleston through catering and private events.

Come for coffee. Stay for lunch. Meet your neighbors for a drink. Linger over dinner.

However you find us, we’re glad you’re here.
