50 Best Bars near Mauldin

“From Buffalo, so I know real food. Friday fish fries, beef on wick, pizza, subs, all true to the way it should be. Oh and the wings deep-fried to perfection every time I go. I’m not talking about Frank’s redhot sauce poured on little pieces of chicken, these are legit, buffalo wings. These guys know how to make the wing sauce and they have excellent, Rich, blue cheese to go with it. So glad I found this place. If you miss the food from where you’re from or you want to taste the way food should be, Moretti’s is a must dine experience. 5stars all day!“

“The Escape Lounge is a great place to wait for a flight. When a flight was delayed for hours, I was grateful to have the opportunity to visit the GSP Escape Lounge. The food was excellent, and there were several special-diet-friendly options! Kerry was an excellent host! Not only is she very friendly and makes any visit more enjoyable, she is so imaginative and creative with her drink recipes.“

“Wandered in here about 7 on a Friday. There were only a few locals in at that time but they had tons of TVs all playing sports. The bartender was very nice to us despite clearly looking like silly tourists. Drinks were cheap, pool table was in good shape, and karaoke was a lot of fun late night on Friday. If we come back to Taylors we will make sure to stop back in.“

“What a nice surprise. Being from out of town, we weren’t certain what to expect but this establishment was so fun, friendly, and the food was excellent. Not a huge menu, but what they do, they do well. Everything is hand breaded..from the shrimp to the chicken tenders. It’s a little smokey inside but the food and fun make up for it. If we lived here, we’d become regulars.“

“Great venue! I attended one of the last shows at this location. I've been going to the Radio Room since they were located on 291!This show was two tribute bands, Jeremy's 10 (Pearl Jam) and Nervani, if I spelled that correctly, a Nirvana tribute band.Both were excellent!Can't wait to visit at the new and larger location! Always a great time, and they offer a wide variety of shows.“

“First time coming to RR for the Nirvani show, and it was a really fun venue. Good view of the stage from anywhere in the venue, and the grilled cheese was fantastic. Staff at the door were friendly and the security staff was on it all night. They worked it like Roadhouse and played cooler all night, making sure all the negative energy was kept at bay.

All in all, a super cool place.“

“10/10 — from the vibes to the cocktails to the bartenders we can’t rave enough about vault. Ryan and andrea made us the most incredible dealer choice cocktails but not only were the cocktails amazing, everytime we come here the cocktails are incredible. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a cocktail forward bar!“

“Cool place! Cheap beer! Pool!“

“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.“

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

“Ok so hear me out. This place is very chill n laid back almost like a hood version of CHEERS (GOOGLE THE TV SHOW) The security is super chill and will actually remember you, the bartenders are very nice my favorite is Light bright she's the best 💯 plus the have a pool table that's actually free. Just bring your own pool stick/que and be prepared to enjoy yourself. Also if I may add I've seen all types of races in this place so it's pretty chill if you wanna experience a chill hood/urban place with good music and food. Come here. Oh ya when it's raining they will pick u up in a extended golf cart 🤯the person won't ask but it's ALWAYS proper ethics to tip 💯“

“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.“

“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.

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

“I went in with high expectations and Sum Bar absolutely met them. I absolutely adore this spot. The vibes are immaculate, the dining are and bar super comfy and inviting. The food was absolutely incredible, everything we ate was delicious and full of flavor. My favorites were the crab rangoon appetizer and the hotteok. I think I shed a tear whenever I bit into the hotteok. We both got an orange blossom drink, crab rangoon, green beans, sui mai, chicken wantons, char siu, sesame balls and hotteok. I was strongly considering getting more crab rangoon lol but I would absolutely come back just to sit at the bar and grab a crab rangoon, a drink and a hotteok.

The service was great as well, all the people we encountered were super friendly. The guy who was running the food gave us the run down on the sauces and was very knowledgeable on everything. Everything came out quick and hot.

Would recommend everyone in the Greenville area come and try this place. It’s so good, and for a fair, decent price you get some great high quality food. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Thanks for your encouragement and support about this because I had no idea how they care about me and they paid for a private Club and it is very nice thing about the customers there and I encourage the visitors try go there a membership at the private Club at the price is 10.00 dollars for life and they are very nice people“

“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!“

“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 💛“

“Great football Sunday hangout, especially if your Raiders Nation 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️“

“We just had a surprise Dinner Party for my Husband at Coral. Jen could not have helped me more setting up the plans for a surprise evening!! She helped me pre-order Appetizers and Dessert. She was very quick with responses to all of my questions and made helpful suggestions to me. Our table ordered Sea Food, Lamb, and Vegetarian Dishes and everyone was beautifully presented and delicious. The Appetizers looked like they belonged in a magazine and were delicious as well! We could not have been more pleased with our experience. This was about the fourth time at Coral and it is hands down our favorite place to dine in Greenville, SC! Thank you to Chris and Jeff also for adding to our fabulous evening!! Pamela Koenig“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Man I made the honest mistake with my wife and mother in law to walk out side while leaving our drinks in plain sight of Olathe window but uncovered! The bouncer as I came in was the most respectful person and Pauly the man who tossed him said got to cover em man. I knew exactly what that man meant l. Date rape spiked drinks carelessness and innocent people getting harmed by leaving unattended drinks. Hats off to someone “pauly” looking out. He took care of the situation immediately gave me a round I was more then willing to pay for but said no worries shook my hand and kept relations great!! Hats of to you si!!!“

“Had a great time. Everything was fine. Very nice Ambience. Very nice spot to eat and drink and very good live music 🎵🎵🎶“

“I went for karaoke on a whim and ended up having the best time with some cool people and the great staff! 5 ✨⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This place definitely is a vibe if u want to chill on the weekends 😌 love this place an love making new peeps 💕 love the staff people there always kind an sweet & boss is amazing 👏 I will always be here on weekends !!! ❤️“

“Kind and knowledgeable staff. Great food and a wide variety of beers. This is a family owned and operated business, so it has a very warm and friendly atmosphere.“

“This place is the BOMB! The atmosphere is lively, yet casually laid back. Perfect for that casual drink with a friend or relaxing place after a long day. But even better is the service. Dennis & Logan are two of the dopest bartenders out there who also know how to make a killer drink. I love coming here for Dennis’ expert take on an old fashioned, which he has spent a lot of time and effort refining. And I don’t kid when I say that this is Greenville’s best old fashioned. The attitude behind the bar is very laidback, which will likely offput people expecting a pretentious, posh atmosphere. But if you want a drink made by people who care about what goes in your glass, trust me, pay Rey’s a visit.“
