Located in a historic building on Water Street, The Pearl is a polished gastropub with a sophisticated craft cocktail program and Southern-inflected menu. The Tavern Bar happy hour with $2 oysters and $4-off cocktails is one of the best deals in the entire Water Street development — a genuine pre-dinner steal for oyster lovers.
