Best Late Night Eats in Savannah
Savannah, Georgia — updated August 22, 2026
Seven Savannah kitchens and bars for the hours after most Historic District dining rooms have turned the lights up, with the closing times we could verify and honest notes on the ones we couldn't.
Listings verified
Late dining in Savannah splits between two clocks: the kitchen's and the bar's, and downtown they rarely stop at the same hour. The list below leads with the places carrying the most settled reputations, and where a closing time is published we have quoted it rather than guessed. For anywhere without confirmed hours, call before you walk over.
1. Zunzibar
The strongest evidence on this list: 4.8 stars from 5,201 reviews, a volume that puts it well past the point of being a fluke. It sits at 236 Drayton Street, in the middle of the Historic District grid, which makes it an easy walk from most downtown squares rather than a drive. The rating has held up across thousands of visits, which matters more for a late meal than any single glowing write-up. Hours are not published in our source material, so confirm the kitchen is still serving before you set out on a weeknight.
2. The Olde Pink House
More people have rated this restaurant than anything else here: over 10,100 reviews, averaging 4.6 stars. That is the most tested score in the guide, and a 4.6 that survives five figures of opinions is a more reliable signal than a higher average from a few hundred. Find it at 23 Abercorn Street on Reynolds Square. It is a Savannah institution and books accordingly, so a late seating is often the realistic one. We do not have confirmed closing times, so check ahead if you are arriving after the dinner rush.
3. Cotton & Rye
A bar and kitchen at 1801 Habersham Street, north of Forsyth Park and away from the River Street crowds, holding 4.7 stars across more than 1,700 reviews. That combination of a high average and a substantial sample makes it one of the safer bets here for a later, quieter meal. The address is a short drive or a long walk from the Historic District core, which is precisely the point if downtown is packed. Hours are not listed in our sources, so verify the kitchen's last call rather than assuming.
4. The Darling Oyster Bar - Savannah
Raw bar and full-service cocktail bar at 27 Montgomery Street, rated 4.8 from 312 reviews. The count is modest, so treat that average as promising rather than proven. The published menu runs to seared scallops at 38, lump crab fettuccine at 32, shrimp and grits at 29, fried half chicken at 26, and a daily fresh catch at market price, alongside shrimp, fish and oysters with house fries. Reservations are taken at 912.667.7740, worth using if you want a table late in the evening.
5. Kava House
The highest rating in the guide, 4.9, but from 293 reviews, so the evidence is thin compared with the heavyweights above. It is at 1915 Bull Street, in the stretch south of Forsyth Park, and it is a bar rather than a full restaurant. Go for the drink and the room rather than expecting a dinner menu. Since neither hours nor a food list appear in our sources, this is one to check on the way, not one to build the night around.
6. Service Brewing Co.
A working brewery at 574 Indian Street with 4.8 stars from 670 reviews, and it is on this list with a clear caveat: the hours are not truly late. Wednesday and Thursday it runs 4 to 9pm, Friday and Saturday noon to 10pm, Sunday 12:30 to 6pm, and it is closed Monday and Tuesday. Friday and Saturday are the only nights that stretch past nine. Expect craft beer poured on site, board games, and live music. The taproom rotates its lineup, so ask what is currently on the board.
7. Crystal Beer Parlor
Included because the record is so long, not because it stays open: 4.7 stars from more than 6,700 reviews, one of the most settled ratings in the city. But dining hours run Tuesday through Sunday, 11am to 9pm, with Mondays and major holidays closed, so this is an early-evening plan rather than a late one. The address is 301 West Jones Street. One practical note from the restaurant: Apple Pay and tap-to-pay are not accepted, so bring another form of payment.
