Sean Brock opens Joyland burger restaurant in Charleston
Sean Brock has opened a new burger restaurant called Joyland in downtown Charleston. Located on Calhoun Street, it debuted on February 14, 2025, in the space formerly occupied by Hero Doughnuts & Buns. Joyland offers a casual dining experience, featuring a menu with biscuit sandwiches in the morning and burgers, fried chicken, and hot dogs later in the day. The restaurant is managed by Jen Bresnahan, a veteran in the food industry. The signature dish, the Crustburger, combines elements of a burger, patty melt, and grilled cheese. Joyland is open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., extending to midnight on weekends.
