45 Best Bars in Greenville

“Quite literally the best burgers and fries ever. I’ve never had anything anywhere in the US that compares. Not necessarily a “family restaurant” but I do wish they had a changing table in the bathroom. My kids love coming here and we love having them in spaces that we respect/align with politically🩷🩷“

“We just had our wedding reception at the Travelers Rest location. It was beyond amazing! Kimmie and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to help make our day perfect.

“Food is always the same. Fresh and great. We have been customers for over 50 years. Thanks David.“

“Lives up to its name as the friendliest bar in the Upstate. People of all walks of life come to this little dive bar and everybody is nice and having fun! Best karaoke in the Greenville area on Friday and Sunday! Cheap drinks. It is a smoking bar but they do have an outdoor patio to chill at.“

“Visiting family in Greenville, SC and it was Fall For Greenville weekend. We had dinner reservations Friday at Between the Trees for 7:30. We walked Main Street and enjoyed the festival for a couple of hours before heading to Spirit and Bower before our dinner reservations (Beautiful lodge setting bar venue with both indoor outdoor seating.) Shemiah was our server, and the primary subject of this review. She was the most efficient, professional and courteous server and also the absolute sweetest person on top of her serving duties. She took our orders promptly (with great service from the bar staff) our beverages soon arrived. Shemiah asked if we had enjoyed the festival, we told her that we had and that we were here celebrating my wife and my 50th wedding anniversary. She was as excited as were and served us with renewed passion. Not long after finding out about our celebration, she arrived with the most delicious strawberry shortcake I have ever had. This was such a kind gesture on her part, she deserved the hugs we gave her. You made a special evening more so with your kindness. Thank you to SHEMIAH and the people on her team for doing what you do.“

“This is the best place to come and hang!! The bar tenders are wonderful. Ms. Whitney is awesome. She will take good care if you!! Stan the owner is so cool and awesome. We have Karaoke on Tuesday nights with SuperRad Karaoke. My man Lex is the best. We even have battle shots where we compete for a free shot. And the foot is awesome. Every night they have food specials like $1 wings on Tuesday. If you are interested in Karaoke. Or just looking for a cool bar to hang, come out to Old School Tavern. The best bar in Greenville. I hope to see you here soon.“

“Awesome pub with craft beer and wine by the glass or bottle. TVs with live sports and general interest viewings. Great atmosphere!“

“Are Ready for some Football 🏈 Home of the Dallas Cowboys 🤠 Come out and enjoy Adult Fun over Drinks & Great Food 🍿 & Hookahs 🧞💨“

“Hall’s Chophouse has put itself as my #1 dinning experience so far. We reserved a stop for our wedding anniversary and couldn’t not have asked for a better dinner. The food was absolutely phenomenal. The steak was to perfection. Taylor and staff were the absolute best. Thank you for a wonderful anniversary dinner.“

“You'll see on reviews about membership, yes you should be a member(membership doesn't cost much you just can't drink) or know a member to get in. Most of us will let you in on our own as long as you don't cause trouble. We play league here (APA) sorry if that inconveniences you, one of the bartenders is a league member, and the owner is fully aware of how this bar is run. Friendly people, good food, games to watch and pool to play.“

“Awesome and exceeded expectations! Our server, Jennifer, made the difference--engaging, personable, knowledgeable and went out of her way to ensure our requests were met--and when several items were not available, she ensured we were satisfied, especially with dessert items that were just out of this world and the general manager came to apologize and was very gracious!! We were also visited by the owner, Rick Erwin, who greeted us along with other tables--a rarity. The evening was totally unique in so many ways--thank you and we will be back from North Carolina.“

“Went here for our anniversary last night and it was so nice! I had the duck salad and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone was so friendly, sweet, and genuine. Service was great. Can’t say enough great things 💛“

“Stopped in for dinner. It was really busy due to everything going on downtown, but let me tell you, the bartenders were on point!!! Todd was doing an amazing job keeping up with everyone to include us. But the other bartenders checked on us as well. They have multiple tvs to watch sports, outside seating and ample inside seating. I had the chicken ceasar wrap with sweet potato fries. All was very good. But the sweet potato fries were the bomb!!! I could have eaten them all.“

“Impressive selection of cocktails, bourbon and whiskey. Nice decor and great location. Clearly ups the ante for Greenville cocktail scene!“

“An Unforgettable Staycation at Hotel Hartness I recently treated myself to a staycation at Hotel Hartness in Greenville, SC, and it was nothing short of amazing from start to finish. I live in Columbia, so this was a quick getaway—but it felt like a world-class vacation. From the moment I arrived, the service was exceptional. Tyesha made check-in seamless and welcoming, Dwayne and Front Office Manager Marie ensured every detail was perfect, and Kadir provided a warm and efficient check-out and even provided an umbrella due to the rain as I was leaving. Each interaction was genuinely kind and professional. The on-site restaurant served absolutely delicious meals, and the spa experience was pure bliss—so relaxing and beautifully maintained. Every aspect of the hotel felt luxurious yet inviting. If you’re looking for a nearby escape with five-star service, I can’t recommend Hotel Hartness enough. I’m already planning my next visit!“

“Had a great time. Great food, great people and a lot of laughs“

“The food was wonderful. Presentation was great. Staff very nice.“

“Definitely a 10 out of 10 on food, drinks, and atmosphere. Come see your favorite bartender. We are open 7 days a week. We have Free Cover Fridays, Sensational Saturdays, and Layed-Back Sundays. No matter when you decide to come its always a grown, fun, enjoyable spot to be. Come check it out 1243 S. Pleasantburg Drive.“

“My gf and me love this place Everyone is so friendly.“

“THE FOOD!!! SOOO Good!“

“I really enjoyed this place! As a local, it can be difficult to say the least just to even get a reservation anywhere in downtown Greenville, especially on Main Street. But this place was both cozy and quiet with exceptionally great food and drinks served by a friendly staff. Might just become my little hidden gem to enjoy while escaping the chaos of Greenville busy nights“

“Love to hit this old school food & bar place. As a smoker, I enjoy that I can light up inside the place and indulge in an adult beverage. Reminds me of older, better days- but the place does not wreak of smoke.
The crowd is laid-back and welcoming with occasional live music in the small venue“

“Amazing! Hands down one of the best kept secrets in Greenville! Food is phenomenal and quality, service and attention to detail are outstanding!“
