Food & Drink

Food and bar, thoughtfully built in.

At Union Station, food and beverage are handled in-house by Rosemary & Rye, the Charleston catering and bar team behind the venue.

It is a simpler way to host. Your venue, food, bar, staffing, and service are planned together from the start, so the experience feels seamless without adding more vendors to manage.

Signature cocktails and zero-proof drinks

If you want something more custom, Rosemary & Rye can help create signature cocktails that fit the tone of your event, menu, or brand. These can be named, batched, garnished, and served in a way that feels intentional without making the bar overly complicated.

Zero-proof options are also available for guests who are not drinking alcohol. These can go beyond the standard soda and water setup, giving every guest something thoughtful to enjoy.

How bar planning works

Bar service is planned as part of your event details. Once we know your guest count, event timeline, and general preferences, our team can recommend the right beverage setup and talk through the best format for service.

Because bar packages and pricing may vary based on event needs, final beverage details will be confirmed during the planning process.
