History
The Post House Inn stands in a three-story building constructed in 1896 at the corner of Venning and Pitt Streets in the Old Village Historic District of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. Originally a private residence with a retail store, it has served over the years as a town office, hardware store, school, and small hotel, with a restaurant occupying the space for more than 40 years.
After closing in February 2019, the property was acquired and fully redesigned by Ben and Kate Towill of Basic Projects and reopened in August 2020 as a 'restaurant with rooms,' modeled on English pubs, with seven individually designed guest rooms. It earned a MICHELIN Key in 2024.
