Polliwogs is a great bar and grill to go to. Basic simple food menu. They have a sandwich called the Willie beef I would recommend. I also had sauteed onions on it.

Kid-friendliness: Okay for kids and they also have outdoor dining.

Great place for a drink. Good pub food, they do resource locally and the specials are creative and fun. Friendly crowd if you remain a stranger you must be working at staying that way.

Man my wife and I ran across this place by sure luck.It was our anniversary and if we’re not out of town we try to find some good places to eat here in SC.Everything was delicious.my cheeseburger was amazing with that touch of blue cheese.my wife loved her okra and salmon.The bacon cheese fries was good enough to slap someone if they asked us for some.Weve been together for 20 years now I have never tipped anyone.i would pay for the meal and my wife would slip something to our server.I actually gave 10$.she almost fainted.first I thought it was those moonshine drinks 😂.good job folks.

We went there on a Monday night to try out their Trivia Night. It was fun with a different slant on their game but the music between questions was way too loud to suit us.

Food was extraordinary! Didn't think I could get a burger this good in this town. Our waitress was great as well. Can't wait to come back!

One of the best restaurants and bars in the midlands!! Live music at least once a week sometimes multiple nights. Happy hour during the week trivia once a week, weekly specials menu, and my favorite night of the week is Thursday's for all you can eat crab legs and karaoke!! See you at The Wog!!

Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly if the sun is out.

The inside was smaller than I thought from the outside. The upstairs seating receives a draft from the doors opening and closing. The food was okay, but not great! Some items are overpriced. All the tvs were on the same channel.

I've been to dozens of restaurants and bars all over the Columbia area the last two months of 2024, and this Polliwogs is the only place with going to. My only complaint is I didn't come here two months ago!!

I went to Polliwogs for the first time tonight. Their service was top notch, the food was out of this world amazing, and their beer selection was the best I've seen since moving to Columbia. I can't wait to come back for more.
