Founded in 1951, Heathwood Hall Episcopal School has long been known as Columbia’s premier independent school. Our tradition of academic excellence is coupled with an abiding commitment to experiential learning that has led to the development of many of our most distinctive programs.
Holding true to our Episcopal heritage, we celebrate and seek to develop the whole child, and to develop tenacious, sophisticated thinkers who value service to others over self-interest. We further support the development of the whole child through a rich array of extracurricular offerings that create ample opportunities for students to find and nurture their passions beyond the classroom.
We believe that children learn best when they are truly known and supported by their teachers. Our abiding commitment to building strong relationships between students and teachers allows us to meet each child where they are in their educational and developmental journey, as opposed to taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
While our outcomes are second-to-none—our students compete nationally and achieve at the highest levels—each student’s Heathwood experience is unique, reflective of his or her interests and abilities, challenges and talents, goals and ethos. Our graduates don’t just master the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in college and beyond; they know themselves, and know how to advocate for themselves, in ways that set them apart from most of their peers. They leave Heathwood prepared not only to take on our dynamic world but to transform it.

Let’s get a couple of things out of the way. Publico Kitchen & Tap is not your average restaurant. It’s not your average neighborhood bar. Instead, it’s something entirely new and different: a hip new Five Points restaurant featuring Lat-Asian cuisine, 54 taps including over 45 craft beers, wine on tap, sake on tap, house cocktails on tap & mead! We also have an AWESOME patio with plenty of space for you to enjoy it all!
You’ll see how different we are when you first walk inside. We encourage you to be creative with our space. Are you here with a date? Grab one of our small, intimate tables and let the world shrink to just the two of you. Have you come in with some friends? Push a few tables together to make room for everyone. Start your night off with a cold local brew and some chips and guac and then try a few of our fusion tacos.
Publico is your restaurant. It’s your night. Do what you want, and above all, enjoy yourself.
