PARRIS ISLAND HERITAGE

Where All Belleau Wood Marines Trained

Every Marine who fought at Belleau Wood trained at Parris Island. The path you took to reach this tavern follows in their footsteps. We honor their sacrifice and courage by being guardians of their legacy.

CORE VALUES

Our Values

HONOR THE FIGHT

Every generation has its battles. We honor the Marines of Belleau Wood and all who have worn the uniform by keeping their stories alive. A beer here isn’t just a drink, it’s a toast and paying homage to sacrifice, courage, and the fight that never really ends.

COMRADES FIRST

Since the dawn of time, there’s been a kind of magic when brothers and sisters break bread and raise a glass together. Sharing food and drink builds purpose, belonging, and strength. Isolation breeds weakness and danger. At Belleau Wood Tavern, no one stands alone.

COMMITMENT

In the Corps, commitment means showing up; for the mission, for your comrades, and for yourself. At Belleau Wood Tavern, that same promise holds: we’re committed to excellence in every meal, every pour, and every experience.

GIVE BACK, DON’T JUST TAKE

Service doesn’t stop when the uniform comes off. We support veterans, families, and the Beaufort community because strength grows when it’s shared. We take care of our own, and that means everyone who walks through the door. 

RESPECT ALL, FEAR NONE

True strength isn’t about domination, it’s about respect. Show respect, earn respect. Stand tall, fear nothing, and raise a glass together.

LIVE PROUD, DIE FULL

Life is short. Celebrate the wins, honor the losses, and never miss a chance to eat, drink, and laugh with your comrades. We live proud of where we’ve been, and we leave the table full, body and soul.

Semper Fidelis
