Shiver Me Timbers
The Pirates' House
Before seafood was added to the menu, the Pirates' House was once a buzzing inn that welcomed sailors and pirates from the Savannah River. It's been said that after a long night of ale drinking, the inebriated sailors would be kidnapped by pirates, only to awaken to a life of frightening captivity. Underground tunnels assisted these scallywags with their ghastly deeds. The souls of sailors still allegedly haunt the bar today. Shadowy figures roaming the dining room and ghostly footsteps could make a believer out of anyone. Aye, these spirits have a story to tell ya!

Churchill's Restaurant and Pub
Don't Look Up
Churchill's Restaurant and Pub
If Toby and his sullen Moon River crew didn’t run you off, head next door to Churchill’s Restaurant and Pub, where ‘hanging out’ is an understatement. Churchills is a high-spirited (no pun intended) bar and restaurant that serves traditional English food, craft beer and cocktails. Rumor has it that a figure of a man can be seen hanging from the beams. We dare you to try not to look up while you’re eating.

Before cocktails, burgers and cheesecake, Savannah Taphouse was home to the former Avon Theatre, built in 1944 and there have been reports of ghostly sightings ever since. The most common story is that of a young girl in a white dress who is said to haunt the upper levels of the building.
