“My fiance and I stopped in last night for a quick bite and a little country music bingo. We ended up leaving having one of the most fun nights I can remember. The atmosphere is so friendly and welcoming, from the staff to the customers. We were only expecting to stay an hour but ended up staying most of the night. yall treated and made us feel like we'd been coming there forever. im sad we're leaving for our next contract but if we ever come through this area again, we will absolutely be back- i just wish we'd found yall sooner! Thank you for the yummy food, the wonderful southern hospitality, the endless laughs and amazing little memory we got to make on one of our last nights here!!! Tyler, I wish you and your crew much success, you have a great little spot and amazing people there!!! ❤️👌“

“The menu is appealing, the facility is clean , and there are plenty of screens to watch a game but don’t be fooled by the eye candy. The service and food are disappointing. We arrived at the restaurant at 8:30 and was seated in the bar area were no other patrons were currently being seated. There were plenty of people out in the main dining area so we figured that they must just be short on servers and that we would be waiting on by the bar hostess. The first item we ordered was an appetizer (chips with chili quest) that we didn’t find out for almost 20 minutes they were out of. Deciding to change our selection we ordered a second appetizer that we thought was going to be tater tots and it turns out it was balls of hash browns deep-fried in old oil that tasted absolutely terrible and were extremely greasy. We ordered food ( chicken and waffles) and about 10 minutes later we were told that they no longer had that item because they were out of waffles so we were once again asked to change our order. When we got the hamburger to replace the chicken and waffles they said they couldn’t make it was on a bun that was soaked in some type of fluid (water or grease it didn’t really matter) but it made eating the hamburger virtually impossible. We spoke to the waitress about the tater tots and she was going to take it off the bill but when the bill arrived she had not done it and informed me that the management would let her do it. She was preoccupied because they were closing early so maybe she never tried If your idea of a good meal with bad service is a sloppy hamburger and s ball of hash browns that are greasy and taste like an old oil then this is the place for you. It’s not $45 that I’ll wish to spend in that location ever again.“

“Stopped by TD’s Food and Drink in downtown Clemson during a road trip, and it’s the go-to spot before a game, buzzing with Clemson spirit right next to campus!

This lively student dive bar delivers high energy and a perfect pre-game vibe. The wings were a standout, packed with flavor and cooked just right. The sandwiches were delicious too, hearty and great for a casual lunch. My wife and I shared a pitcher of “The Tiger” (orange vodka, Sprite, and orange juice), a fun, citrusy drink that was a hit with our table and new friends we made among Clemson students and alumni - such a great community feel!

That said, the dive bar atmosphere - loud, crowded, and unpolished - might not suit everyone, though it’s part of the charm if you’re here for the game-day hype. Service was solid but a bit stretched during the busy lunch rush. If you’re looking for tasty bar food and the heart of Clemson’s pre-game excitement, TD’s is the place to be. Go Tigers!“

“We went to Calhoun Corners for our anniversary dinner and it was absolutely incredible. The service was phenomenal from start to finish. Our waitress, who had only been in the area for two weeks, was so kind and friendly, offering great suggestions throughout the night.

We started with the escargot and stuffed mushrooms, both were delicious, and the fresh, hot, buttery bread was irresistible. For our main courses, I had the beef Wellington, perfectly cooked and flavorful, while my wife’s favorite of the night was the prime rib. Everything was prepared beautifully and tasted amazing.

Our waitress even took the time to give us other dining recommendations in the area since we are visiting. Overall, it was an unforgettable anniversary dinner and we can’t recommend Calhoun Corners enough.“
