Where does ‘Southern Charm’ take place? Details on filming locations.
Southern Charm is filmed in Charleston, S.C. Along with a variety of eateries, viewers also see a number of historic landmarks — including plantations and the since-destroyed statue of Kathryn Calhoun’s late ancestor, slave owner John C. Calhoun.
In earlier seasons, the cast frequented the Gentry Hotel, owned by JD Madison. However, the business has since closed permanently. Southern Charm cast members are also regulars at Nico’s — made famous by their French oyster bar — and Home Team BBQ.

Isaac Jenkins Mikell House
Longtime Southern Charm viewers will recognize the Issac Jenkins Mikell House, where socialite Patricia Altschul lives with her butler, Randy. She first purchased the home — which has been frequently featured in the series — in 2008. Years later, the property was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Republic Garden and Lounge
Many of Southern Charm’s most memorable moments happened at the Republic Garden and Lounge. I mean, who could forget when Thomas Ravenel got head-butted in a nasty bar fight and left the Republic with a black eye?
Owned by Southern Charm newcomers Leva and Lamar Bonaparte, the Republic is the epicenter of nightlife in Charleston’s upper King Street. The couple also owns three other businesses in the area.
