Traveling Mercies is an intimate neighborhood oyster and cocktail bar from James Beard Foundation Award-winning chef Caroline Glover. our menu muses raw bar favorites — like oysters and shrimp cocktails — alongside comfort food classics like wedge salads and rice pudding. The drinks side features refined, intentional and occasionally whimsical cocktails, with a focus on the breadth and versatility of rum and a deep rolodex of lesser-known classics. Wines skew coastally influenced, boasting acid and salinity to complement the seafood-centric menu.

traveling mercies was a semifinalist for the james beard foundation’s best new bar award in 2024, and was also named one of Esquire magazine’s 2024 best bars in America.
