The Obstinate Daughter restaurant on Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina, experienced a reported structure fire early on Wednesday morning, January 14, 2026, prompting a swift response from fire crews.
Incident Details
Firefighters arrived at the 2000 block of Middle Street just after 4:35 a.m., with most leaving by 6:15 a.m. after addressing smoke and hosing down the building; Middle Street was temporarily closed. The restaurant confirmed it would reopen for lunch at 11 a.m. that day, suggesting limited severity.
Prior Fire History
This marks the second fire at the location in just over a year, following a January 8, 2025, kitchen fire possibly caused by kitchen rags, which caused minor cosmetic damage and closed the business for over a month. No injuries were reported in either incident, and investigations into the latest fire remain ongoing.
