What We Could Not Confirm
Not confirmed: we looked for these on official pages and did not find them. Check with the town or operator before you rely on them.
- Charleston City Market hours and whether browsing is free: we could not read a current official page for these. Check the Market's own site.
- Kids menus: none of the five restaurant sites we read mention one.
- Walking time from each restaurant to the Market: we did not measure it. All five addresses are on the downtown peninsula.
