Heavy's Barburger

Downtown · $ · Ranked in 2 TasteSignal categories

Updated November 2026

← Best Burgers in Charleston, SC
#1 Burgers#76 Best Overall ▼

A counter-service smashburger bar in a small storefront where the beef is hand-smashed paper-thin on a flat-top, finished with American cheese, and stacked as a double on a soft potato bun. The menu is short by design: a few burger builds, hand-cut fries, milkshakes. Limited indoor seating; most orders are takeout or eaten at the counter.
