9 Best Sports Bars near Seneca

“Love the food and service!“

“As a wife of an engineer in the Nuclear Power industry I know first hand what it's like to live in a hotel for months on end. Many of his crew works night shift and Jim has been there himself. You get off work at 4 or 5 am and nothing is open. You can't shut your stomach off so you're left with gas station or vending machine food. Very small refrigerators in the hotel rooms so you can't stock up on much other than some deli meat and cheese. Yesterday while visiting my husband on the road, we stopped at one of our favorite places in Seneca The Spot on the Alley. They were closed, or so we thought. Just as we turned to walk away from the locked door a man came and unlocked it. He let us in and explained they were just finishing up a few renovations. He kept apologizing and if we didn't mind them cleaning up they could serve us shortly. He said they were running odd hours due to the outage and decided to get a few things done in between the busy hours. I told him we just wanted to get an appetizer as we already had dinner plans but we were hungry and it would be a few hours before we were able to eat. He served us a big bowl of queso and fresh chips. I ordered a drink from the bar and we sat and talked quietly watching them work to get things put away. So the man came back and handed us a menu and invited us to come back the next morning. Come to find out they open early for the outage workers. The Spot on the Alley opens at 5 am during outage season for night shift to be able to get something hot to eat after a long night of hardwork. I just have to mention how nice I think it is. The man did tell me he only purchased The Spot on the Alley a few months prior. We have so much respect for these little towns who host hundreds of Plant workers a few months out of the year. Not to many businesses take into account the shifts these men and women work and their sacrifices and the odd shifts often times put their good health into question. So thank you for opening early for night shift. Don't know who will see it but here's the menu.“

“Applebee's Grill + Bar has honestly had quite the transformation over the years. I remember when it had a pretty rough reputation locally — service was inconsistent, the food wasn’t great, and overall it just wasn’t a place people were excited about. It had that “we only go here if we have to” kind of feel.

But fast forward to now, and it’s a completely different experience. Over the last couple of years, I’ve been there multiple times, and most visits have been genuinely solid. The food has improved a lot — hot, fresh, and actually enjoyable — and the overall experience feels way more put together than it used to be.

Every now and then, sure, something might come out a little off or not quite right, but that’s become the exception rather than the rule. Most of the time, everything hits the way it should, and the consistency is night and day compared to how it used to be.

The staff has also been noticeably friendlier and more attentive, which makes a big difference. You can tell the place has made real improvements in how it’s run and how customers are treated.

Overall, it’s gone from a place with a pretty rough reputation to somewhere I actually don’t mind going back to. It’s not perfect — no restaurant is — but when it’s good, it’s really good, and these days it usually is. Definitely glad to see the change, and I hope it keeps going in that direction.“

“We sat at the bar and enjoyed our conversation with the clemson Senior, Lauren. The food and drinks were superb.“

“Owners a great guy with military background Shawn Gibson and the bartenders are fast a friendly. And they get some excellent bands to play there. I enjoy going there with my mother. To me it’s a 5 star bar. All American.“

“Great college bar vibes. Food/Kitchen is always on point. Bartenders are the best. Always a “for sure” lunch stop when we’re in Clemson!!“

“I can’t say enough about the delicious bar food at this location. You can tell the kitchen staff really cares about what they produce! The jalapeno poppers and boneless wings have been my go-to to-go order three times in the last couple of months. Both items slap and are consistent every single time. Highly recommend Charleston Sports Pub!“

“Esso was so so good to us during the George Strait concert pregame. Their staff worked harder than I've ever seen and did everything to accommodate people in a crazy environment!! Top notch! Highly recommend!!“

“A lot of people put up false reviews for this place because they decided they did not want guns in their bar. They did it with a snarky sign and people got butt hurt.So here's the lo down on how they are as a restaurant and bar, and not an opinion on the extent to which 2nd amendment rights apply to private businesses:Their beer selection is the best in Clemson. Tons of cans and bottles and lots of taps. They get some really great craft stuff in. Plus this year they started the 100 beer club where you get a shirt and a plaque if you drink 100 beers there. The bartenders love their beer and make some great recommendations.Their food is bar food but they definitely step it up. Most things always have a little something something that takes it up a notch above standard bar food. Also their weekly specials are very good.Monday - $1 tacos,Tuesday - $5.75 large pizza,Wed -. $6.75/dzn wings,Thursday - burger night (<$6 for house burger and fries or tots, only $1 for speciality burger.They also have an upstairs and downstairs patio. Pups are allowed on the lower patio Mon to Thurs till 8.Update:Food is not as good as it used to be but it's decent bar food. Still a great selection of beer and staff is helpful. Two pool tables downstairs.“
