You know those bars designed with luxury and comfort in mind? Fiat Lux is that kind of bar.
Nestled at the top of Hotel Bennett in Charleston, South Carolina, Fiat Lux overlooks the famous Marion Square, a cherished landmark of downtown Charleston. People watching at its prime, you’ll see all types of dogs, College of Charleston students enjoying the sun in the grass or playing lawn games, vendors perhaps during the farmer’s market season, and plenty of the Holy City’s skyline accompanied by views of King Street and St. Matthews Lutheran Church beneath.
It is obvious that the design of the hotel was not so selfish to keep it within the confines of its walls; it fortunately was extended to its restaurants and bars alike. Fiat Lux with its deep blue papered walls, symmetrical trim work, and the contrast of the cognac leather furniture is reminiscent of England’s Regency Era while still feeling modern.
“Though the design is regal in all things considered, the drinks scream modernity with sumptuous touches such as the Plum Perfect’s Earl Grey garnish.”



“Underrated, or perhaps misunderstood, Fiat Lux can compete with the many other rooftop establishments in the Holy City any day.”
