About Old Town Dispensary
Old Town Dispensary is the kind of place a neighborhood needs — a relaxed, unpretentious bar and kitchen where the beer list is taken seriously and the food is genuinely good. It sits in the heart of Old Town Bluffton, a short walk from the May River waterfront.
The draft list leans toward local and regional craft breweries, with rotating taps that reflect what's good right now. The kitchen turns out Lowcountry-inflected bar food: shrimp, sandwiches, and snacks that pair well with a cold pint. The patio is one of the better places to spend a warm Bluffton evening.
It's a good spot for a casual lunch after exploring Old Town, or a low-key dinner when you don't want to plan ahead. The vibe is friendly and local — the kind of place where regulars know the bartenders by name.
