If you're looking for a bar that knows how to take care of a crowd, this place absolutely delivers…read more We came in with a large party, and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating--quick service, super friendly, and genuinely on top of everything. It made the whole experience feel effortless. One of the coolest parts of the bar is their fun tradition of letting guests write on dollar bills and staple them to the walls. It adds so much character and becomes a little activity in itself--everyone in our group loved it. The food hits the spot, classic bar favorites done right, and the drinks are solid without breaking the bank. Overall, it's just a great hangout spot with good vibes, great prices, and a team that knows how to make you feel welcome. Highly recommend stopping by with friends or a big group.

We stopped by The Griffon after going to The Black Fedora. This is a laid back drive bar, which we…read morereally appreciated. We snagged a seat and were able to order some mozzarella sticks and people watch for a bit. Service is great, even when it gets busy. The mozzarella sticks are SO GOOD! Their red sauce was spectacular. Highly recommend if you're looking for a dive bar.

This is a nice restaurant located on a great area. Plenty of parking available in front of the…read morerestaurant and plenty of things to do in the area. Overall I had great experience. The server was really nice and attentive. He also provided some good recommendations for my meals. I got the fisherman's pie and the Rueben rolls. Fisherman's pie is pretty much a seafood Shepard pie. Really good and really hardy. The rueban rolls were basically egg rolls with rueban filling. Hard to go wrong when dipping something in thousand island. I also recommend trying one of the half and half beers! I had the black and blue which seemed like an odd. combination but it worked well together!

Great little area in North Charleston. Bars and restaurants up and down the street…read more Madra Rua is a traditional dark, rustic Irish pub. Guinness is on point. Fresh! Ordered the fish and chips. Tasted great. Would have been nice to have had one more piece of fish. The one I had was large but felt it was a small portion. Fries were good. They were the fresh cut, darker, flemsy kind if you know what I mean. I like them but some folks don't. Sat at the bar. Bartender was attentive and food came out quickly.

Recently reopened, we wanted to give this eatery with its homage to Irish pub type atmosphere a…read moretry. The evening we were here there was an actual singer/guitar/bouzouki/ banjo player who really is Irish! Fantastic performance and the sound system was way above what you might expect in a small establishment like this. Impressive. The ambience was friendly and festive, and though many were clearly there for socializing and not as attentive in listening to the music as we were, it did not take away from our enjoyment of it! The crowd did eventually get engaged enough with several songs to dance and sing along. As expected the Guinness was tasty and it was well poured, but the surprise was the food was really quite good. A bit of an Irish pub theme with "bangers and mash" ( grilled sausages over mashed potatoes) and the chicken curry were quite tasty and filling at a fair price. One of the wait staff was sick so the staff was a bit harried and behind when the unexpectedly large crowd arrived for the music, but it all got sorted out and they remained friendly and attentive through it all. I personally love the menu, but there are few vegetarian options, and not much in the way of salads and such. It is early yet, and as the kitchen matures and the work gets out to the locals I expect the menus will develop more options in this area. But we will definitely plan a return trip here!

Not very good for consumer planning My friend said the fish and chips were good. There was only one person there working and it was lunchtime. The service was good, although slow. We enjoyed the cocktails and beers we had. They've got a nice stage so I'm assuming there's live music as well. We got up there and played around a bit, and the bartender had a fun time laughing at us. Maybe with a constant happy hour menu, we will try it out again!

Stopped by with the kids while in the area today. Totally fine experience. We started with the…read morebuffalo chicken dip and I appreciated that the chips were freshly sliced and fried. The chips were good and my daughter liked the dip (I'm not a fan of that dip so I didn't have any). She said her hamburger was fine, it looked like the typical 1/2 lb burger that I don't like much, but that's personal preference. My son liked his cheeseburger. I had fish and chips which were pretty good. Service was friendly. They have a game room filled with arcade machines and pool tables, and seemed to have a good assortment of German and Irish beers on tap. Lots of open air seating too. J.Ja

In Merchant Village, where Publix is located on Folly Road in James Island is where this bar and…read moregrill is located. Wooded walls, wooden booths, and a long bar with usual stools. Yes, that kind of welcoming feeling and look. Now for the food which was brought to us by our ever near waitress. The Philly Cheesesteak was on a soft hoagie type of roll, and trust me, soft is better for the bread being served on a Philly. The steak was small cuts mounded up (as in my photo) on top of the melted cheese, with tasteful grilled onions combined in. Trust me, you should order this! I have been here before for a quick beer in an afternoon, but the crowd and servers are different, but this is the first time for ordering food. Finally, an extra was live music by local talent David Orvin. All in all, a good Saturday afternoon!

Looking for a chance to watch Carolina Gamecocks. Ohio games were on as well as a Cleveland browns club event. Bartender turn on a tv that was 13 inch at best. Felt unwanted. Decided to leave.

Our first stop on this Charleston trip & it wasn't on my list but I'm so glad we stumbled upon it!…read moreWe sat outside in the outdoor area, where you order at the bar and the bartenders will bring your drinks, and food out. It was easy & we loved our lunches! I chose the double smash burger which was so delicious and filling! Loved it! Hubs chose the Cobb chicken salad and he loved it! Ate every bite & reports that the chicken was fried perfectly without too many clumps or batter lumps. We would absolutely come back for brunch items! Cool things: the bathroom wallpaper was epic, outside they have a water cooler with cups for self help access & a dog bowl for those who bring their pups. Loved that!

Listen, it's a great bar. The courtyard is nice. There is an ample amount of options for drinks…read more But... What does that matter if you're ushered out before closing? A group of about 8 of us went out for drinks Saturday (5/2/26). We were having a great time (respectful, quiet, not causing a problem). Last call hit at 1:30 so we decided one more drink before we went our ways home. 10 mins later we're were asked to leave the courtyard and head inside - not a problem. We will finish our drinks inside. 5 minutes after that, we were asked to take our last sips and leave. 15 mins before the posted closing time. Again, we weren't causing a problem, weren't loud, weren't disruptive. This was a group of 8, most of us well into our 40s (or older). But they were telling all guests to leave at 1:45a?? Just after we bought drinks? The posted hours say they close at 2a. Not 1:45a. Most of us left half finished drinks. The large bouncer was nice enough, the tiny one in a hoodie with glasses was totally unprofessional. So beware. The Blind Tiger has what it takes to remain a Charleston institution. Their staff, might ruin that chance.

The bartenders are always so friendly and kind and so on top of things. We love visiting on Tuesday with $8 cheesesteak night. A chicken or steak Philly with fries for $8. AMAZING! Only catch is the deal starts after 7pm when trivia starts. The sandwiches are a little different because the meat is super super chopped and mixed with the veggies and cheese but they are delicious. You can also sub out your side for any of the other 10 options! The fried okra is also pretty good! They of course have a full bar with cheap domestics and about 8 beers on tap which always includes Guinness! They're undergoing some renovations so I can't wait to see how they change things up a bit and make it a little more fresh. But this pub is definitely worth the visit!
