The crowd there is very accepting and welcomes every newcomer with open arms! They encourage an atmosphere of healthy communication and friendship! You won't find trouble or fighting there like you might at a lot of other bars at night. Easy access to a pool table gives you casual entertainment, as well as the bar sporting an arcade style bowling game and three separate TVs for watching pretty much whatever you are in the mood for. A Touch Tunes jukebox on the wall means that you can play any song your heart desires while you grab a cold one from their wide selection of beer and small selection of wine. Every once in a while, they have a fish fry hosted by a local fisherman who cooks on site, and on holidays, they offer food as well. Occasionally, they have a food truck on site. Not to mention, they have a small selection of snacks and sodas stocked at the bar at all times. Wednesday night is APA pool league night, and they welcome players to join their team, The Twisted Ducks, whether you are new to the game or an old pro. Saturday nights are Game Night and karaoke, and you can expect some great singers in the house. They offer a selection of board and card games available for you and your friends to join in on, of which the most popular are Cards Against Humanity and Heads Up! If you haven't checked this place out before, you're missing out. It looks daunting from the outside, but once you're in, the mood is absolutely wonderful! Everyone is a friend there, just waiting to connect with you! You should go down there and see what kind of fun there is to be had down by the river. You won't be disappointed!

Suitcase Social Club Dispatch No. 47: "Timmy vs. The Lumberjacks"…read more If you've ever wondered what happens when a grown man with sales quotas, a mild caffeine imbalance, and the attention span of a golden retriever discovers competitive lumberjack sports streaming on the bar TV... well, allow me to submit Exhibit A. I wandered into Main Street Bar & Eatery for what was supposed to be a "quick bite between quotes." Instead, I became spiritually welded to a barstool while the TV blasted a man in flannel yeeting a chainsaw like it owed him money. And the fried pickles. Good grief. Those things ambushed me. One minute I'm thinking "I'll just have a snack," and the next I'm waist-deep in a basket of fried circles of temptation, crunching my way into oblivion while pretending to "work." My laptop was open, sure, but let's not lie to ourselves -- I got absolutely nothing done. I was too busy yelling advice at professional lumberjacks like I'd trained for this moment my whole life. Tim the Suitcase Regular Rating Breakdown: * Atmosphere: Cozy but with the unpredictable energy of a log-rolling final * Food: Fried pickles that could ruin a man's productivity in the best possible way * Service: Friendly, fast, and kindly nonjudgmental of whatever fever dream I was living in * Entertainment: 10/10 involuntary lumberjack immersion If you're looking for a place where you can lose an entire afternoon under the noble banner of "I swear I'm still working", Main Street Bar & Eatery is the arena. Suitcase Social Club™ stamp of approval: Earned.

I checked out this downtown lounge in Spartanburg last night and really liked it…read more It's underground with late night vibes, tasty drinks, cigars, and entertainment. I'm 30, and while most of the crowd was 40 plus, there were people my age too. You could tell a lot of the people there were regulars. Everyone was kind. The music was a nice mix, not too old school and not too modern. A decent volume. The owner said they sometimes have live music as well. This place has multiple TVs for sports, karaoke, plenty of seating, and really good ventilation. I don't smoke, and the cigar smell didn't bother me at all. The back den area was calm, private, and had a TV. They also have VIP lockers and updated cameras, which made the place feel safe. The food and drinks were good and came out in a decent time. The owner, Desmond, took over this place four years ago and was very welcoming. We even played a game of chess and he beat me. The whole place felt friendly, almost like visiting family. I would definitely come back!

Please beware of mandatory gratuity charged under a service fee. Went in had a late evening meal on…read morethe terrace. Have been coming here for years and this is the first time that a mandatory tip( charged as a service fee) was added. When asked what the fee was the server said that the manager told them that he should charge the gratuity since were a party of 7. There was six of us. When the manager came she said it was a party of 6 that they charge. When asked why their menus weren't noted that they charge mandatory gratuity. They said that they are printing new ones, that it is a policy that they just started 6 months ago. As far as I am aware in order for them to charge mandatory gratuity they have to have it posted in the menu. My point is if you change your policy at least have the menus updated before you have the policy in effect. Ended up paying the service fee of over $35 for all of us. Will be going to a place where tips are earned and not mandatory imposed as a service fee. The service was not outstanding, definitely had better service else where and didn't mind leaving a well deserved tip, way over the 18%.

We loved…read moreeverything from start to finish- the atmosphere was lovely, we had our own private fire pit and comfortable outdoor couches. I was delighted with the upstate burger, it has a slightly spicy aiole and a crispy fried tomato in the giant burger, (and pimiento cheese! Yassss!) and the Caesar salad was perfectly dressed and crisp with pumpernickel croutons. The manager, Thomas stopped by our table and was very hospitable, and we also received excellent service from our server, cristin. Over all the best experience we've had in the Spartanburg area and we can't wait to come back again. Five stars for sure!
