Early Bird Diner in West Ashley is frequently found on “best of” lists when it comes to Charleston dining, and this funky, art-filled joint really lives up to the hype. It’s classic Southern cooking done right with breakfast served all day (meaning until 4am on Friday & Saturday nights). The true star of the menu is the chicken and waffles, so let us elaborate: it’s pecan-encrusted fried chicken and a cinnamon waffle drizzled with honey mustard and syrup.
