Coastal Crust

Coastal Crust earned its Lowcountry following the old-fashioned way — starting with a restored 1949 Chevy truck and a wood-fired Valoriani oven before planting a permanent 200-square-foot A-frame hut behind Vintage Coffee Café on Simmons Street. The Neapolitan pies draw genuine praise for crust quality — pillowy crumb, assertive char, enough chew to make you reconsider your pizza loyalties — and the arugula salad and burrata have developed their own loyal following. The outdoor-only setup, with twinkle lights and a repurposed antique truck-turned-playground, is charming on a mild evening; service has occasionally drawn criticism for event-hosting miscommunications and slower wait times under pressure.
