The Oldest Liquor Store in the U.S.

Located along one of Charleston's most renowned streets, you'll find the nation's most ancient liquor store. The Tavern on Rainbow Row continues to welcome patrons to this day. Its origins trace back to 1686 when it began as an illicit gathering spot, catering to sailors and locals seeking a variety of libations. Today, under the ownership of Charleston Spirits, this historic establishment's doors remain ajar, extending a warm invitation to visitors and customers alike. (Submitted by Kelli Seeman-Smith)
