I usually love this place, but Iāve had several strange experiences lately. The staff is generally great, except for the blonde bartender who works inside. Now, I only get drinks from the outside bar because sheās consistently rude and clearly chooses who to serve first.
I work in F&B and fully understand how stressful it can be behind the bar, but what I canāt excuse is her attitude. Itās one thing to hustle for tips, but thereās no reason to serve every man before a woman, especially when weāve been waiting longer. Ladies, save yourself the frustration and head to the outside bar instead.

I traveled from out of state and specifically chose Jakeās because of its dog-friendly reputation. I researched the policy ahead of time. The current PDF on their website says dogs must be leashed by 11PM, with no mention of a 10PM cutoff. When I returned after feeding my dog, we were told dogs arenāt allowed after 10. Mind you I was just in thereā¦ after 10, another dog in there as well. Just went to the car to feed my dog. The policy isnāt posted anywhere, and other dogs had been there moments before. When I brought this up, I was told āthe policy changed 6 months agoā but again, this wasnāt reflected anywhere online or on site. It felt dishonest and dismissive, especially to someone who went out of their way to follow the rules. When I asked to see a policy I was told āthey have the right to turn anyone awayā which yes is true, but how ethical is that if itās a complete lie? ..or to have nothing to back it up? This is my first time visiting Columbia and Iāve been really excited but this completely ruined my night. I downloaded and read the entire policy and went back to discuss this with them and all I got was deflection. Really upset over this. I wouldāve visited another city if I knew weād be treated this way.

we love jakes. vibe is always great, staff are friendly, plenty of space. the outdoor area is awesome when the weather is great and def a better experience than other bars when youre all cramped up inside
Only respectable bar in 5 points. Minus one star because it's in 5 points

Several members of the staff have the worst attitudes and the āmuscleā of the establishment are complete jerks.

Smells like garbage, the staff are bullies and rude, bad to live performers, and tell blatant lies to keep up their profits. Very āfrat broā atmosphere, doesnāt even feel like South Carolina on their property š
