About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Healthy
Octagon welcomes guests to a lively gathering place where tales are told, laughter lingers in the air, and nothing is taken too seriously. Cocktails, food and life are shared in this social hub. A namesake to the “Octagon House,” one of the first plantation homes that stood on the Bluff in years prior to the Wilson era, Octagon features sharable bites, classic cocktails with a creative twist, locally crafted beers and our Signature barrel-aged Artillery Punch.

    Wonderful food, especially the special of the day, pork loin chop! Tasty sides. Excellent service. Can be noisy if large groups are present.
