Train Depot Transformed Into Wood-Filled Wonderland at Scarecrow

The final piece of restaurant row Scarecrow & Co. debuts this weekend at 23 Ann St. Scarecrow will be the third restaurant from brand builder Jonathan Buckley to open in the former train depot parallel to the Children's Museum of the Lowcountry.

The concept Scarecrow sits on the north side of the Scarecrow & Co. building nearest Ann Street. This dinner-only restaurant keeps most prices under $30 with wood-fired items highlighting Lowcountry produce and products. A brick oven and open flame grill takes center stage in the dining room, and guests will have front row seats to the chefs prepping dinner, as seating surrounds the fire station.

While the news of chef Damon Wise leaving the franchise shook things up a bit earlier this month, chef Ray England filled in to carry on the concepts on Ann Street.

Scarecrow currently sits in soft opening mode, but announced a grand opening this Saturday, October 15, at 5:30 p.m. Here, Eater photographer Leslie McKellar explores the warming interiors of the restaurant for you to peruse.
