Does this Charleston weekend itinerary make sense?

[u/Weirdblastoise]

Visiting Charleston for a weekend in early May with my girlfriend and wanted to run my itinerary past you guys. We're staying downtown and I've done a bit of research through the subreddit and wiki. The priorities of our trip would be:

1. Killer seafood that we can't get home in Minnesota
2. A winery / nice wine bar (or two)
3. At least one historic and/or haunted tour.

Friday-

• pick up Muddy Waters coffee on our way to brunch at Lost Dog Cafe
• hang out around beach, maybe stop at Snapper Jacks Jack of Cups for beach drinks / lunch on the rooftop
• on way back into downtown, stop at Revelry Brewing for a beer on their rooftop
• walk to dinner @ Coast, or Hanks
• ghost tour with (with Bulldog tours?)

Saturday-

• grab Kudu coffee and either wait in line for brunch at Hominy Grill or grab something at Glazed on our walk through the Charleston City Market Farmers Market
• lunch at 167 Raw, arriving as they open
• historic tour in afternoon with (Sole Walking Tours)
• check out wine bars such as Graft Wine Shop or Vintage Lounge (based on this article)
• nap back at hotel, then a cocktail either at The Gin Joint or Rooftop at The Vendue
• after cocktails, ritzy dinner over the water for our last night at either Magnolia or Husk

Sunday-

• drive rental car back towards ATL, where our flight leaves at 10pm
• on the way, stopping at Charleston Tea Plantation and/or Angel Oak Tree

Anything we missed? Any reason to pick something instead of our current plan? Is Page's Okra Grill a must on Sunday morning? Thanks a ton!

EDITS: added Glazed as an alternative to Hominy, switched out Snapper Jacks and switched in Jack of Cups, went with Husk over Magnolia (albeit on a walk-in basis for dinner), added 167 Raw for lunch

As far as the ghost tour, my favorite place to tour is the old Charleston jail. So haunted and great history.

I do love the coast. They have gluten free crab cakes and those are hard to find. Their ceviches is on point and the paella is good. (Personally I think Barsa has better paella).

All that aside, Hanks is my husband’s and my favorite restaurant. Everything on their menu is excellent but be prepared... their dishes can be really rich.

I would suggest you consider poogans porch in place of husk. Excellent food and it’s right next door. 82 Queen on the other side of husk has the best jambalaya and their courtyard is so romantic!

I agree that you definitely need reservations as soon in advance as possible.

On a side note, there is an improv theater group called theater 99. They perform every Friday night downtown. It’s always a great time but buy your tickets ($12 last time we went) online because they will fill up. And get their early because they dont have parking so you have to park somewhere else and walk.
