Moon King Entertainment Group, part of Watterson Brands, is pleased to announce The Press Room, Bluffton's Largest Family-Friendly Entertainment Destination. The historic Island Packet Building is to be transformed into a premier dining, entertainment, and event venue honoring the Lowcountry's rich heritage.
This exciting new destination will be located at 10 Buck Island Road in Bluffton, South Carolina. The Press Room will be developed in multiple phases, beginning with a significant expansion of the brewery, Side Hustle Brewing Co. taproom, into a full-service taproom restaurant complete with a commercial kitchen. The Press Room will be your go-to for sports entertainment with a beer garden and jumbo TV, indoor arcade games and family entertainment, an upscale coffee shop, a full-service ice cream parlor, and a private event venue. Future plans include an 18-hole indoor black light miniature golf course and an elegant speakeasy in the only known basement of its kind in the Lowcountry.
"We are proud to bring our largest entertainment venue to Bluffton," said Billy Watterson, CEO of Watterson Brands. "By repurposing the historic Island Packet building rather than replacing it, Moon King Entertainment Group continues our commitment to revitalizing meaningful local landmarks.”
