When you visit Coastal Crust, be sure to request Robbie Townsend as your bartender. Born and raised in Mount Pleasant, Townsend began his bartending career as the manager of Coastal Crust’s Mount Pleasant location. “It was fate that I ended up here at Wild Dunes bartending.”
Townsend has a deep connection with the Charleston community and loves engaging with the regular patrons. “Although there are a lot of tourists and it’s cool talking to people from different areas of the country and hearing their interesting stories and lives, I love getting the regulars that live back here. It’s the winter and fall times where I really get the opportunity to have conversations with them for hours.”
Outside of his bartending duties, Townsend is enthusiastic about health and fitness. “I love meal prepping and working out. Fitness is definitely a big passion of mine.” When he isn’t at Coastal Crust, you can find him at the gym, dedicated to his personal well-being.
Coastal Crust’s beverage selection includes a curated list of craft beers, fine wines and creative cocktails to complement any meal. Townsend’s favorite cocktail to make is an old fashioned.
Coastal Crust is open Monday through Thursday from 4-9 p.m. and Friday through Saturday from 4-10 p.m. Make sure to stop by and chat with Townsend while enjoying a drink and savoring a meal. Coastal Crust offers a diverse menu ranging from their renowned wood-fired pizzas to house made meatballs, locally-sourced pastas and delectable desserts.
It provides a wonderful dining experience, combining delicious Italian fare, a laid-back, family-friendly atmosphere and exceptional service. Be sure to make a reservation to fully enjoy this local hotspot.
