We’re sure everyone could use more recreation, health and beauty after the last year we’ve had. Lucky for you, the City Paper has all the locals’ favorite names on tap and all in one place for your convenience. Whether you let your hair grow too long (we hear Barrelli Barber is pretty top notch) or you’re ready to get back outside (James Island County Park is nice this time of year), you’ll find everything you need to make up for lost time.
