    21 violations on inspection 10/3/25. So bad they took pictures. Owner needs to take health violations seriously. This can make someone seriously ill or worse.

    Burger Tavern 77 was a mixture of good and alright. The ambiance and atmosphere were relatively cool. It was basically your average burger joint with a splash of personality mixed in. The wait staff was very kind but also inattentive. I don't think it was their fault personally; I just think that they were understaffed. Nevertheless, it would have been nice to have been seated a little bit quicker and to have been checked on a little less sporadically. As for the food and drink, it was pretty average. I got the chicken tenders and fries, which were fine but not notable in any way. In addition, I was not particularly impressed with their selection of seltzers, which was sorely lacking. All in all, Burger Tavern 77 was a pretty basic burger joint, with some good and some bad mixed together. I wouldn't be averse to returning in the future, but it wouldn't be at the top of my list either.

    The outside of the place is welcoming. Based on the chairs and table locations, you can tell this place is ready to serve during football season. Upon entering, I went to the bar located in the back of the restaurant to pick up my to-go order. Because I ordered by phone, they instructed me to go straight to the bar for pickup. There weren't too many people there on a Wednesday night. The atmosphere was relaxed and casual, not too loud. The staff was friendly, making sure the order was correct and advising where to locate the additional condiments in the bag. The turkey burger was so juicy. I don't think I've had a turkey burger like theirs in Columbia. I have to say, this is the best place for a turkey burger so far. I like how you can build your burger to your liking. Yes, they have burgers you can order from the menu, but where's the fun in that? Oh, the side! I have never had a great pasta salad, but tonight this restaurant showed out. Overall, this was an amazing experience, even if it was to-go.

    The food here is great! Awesome! The French Onion Burger was cooked to my satisfaction. The meat has great flavor. The charbroil flavor really comes through. Their garlic aoili is made in-house. It's better than mayo. My wife is vegetarian and found plenty of options. SOB cheese sticks were great. 27 draft beers to choose from. They have a good variety. Our waitress has been there 3 years and was on-target with timing and pre-dressing the table with condiments. The music was 70s and 80s. It was a great, casual atmosphere. 5 stars here. We will be back. I will say they do have a debit/credit card surcharge so carry cash if you don't want to pay the surcharge.

    We're passing through town and this cute little burger tavern on the corner caught my eye so we stopped for an early dinner / happy hour. I'm so glad we did! The outside seating was so nice and refreshing. Inside was a little crowded but not too loud... the table behind me and I couldn't push our chairs back at the same time kind of crowded. The host and waiter were both super nice and friendly. I had a million questions and the waiter hit them all. The beer on tap was on a fancy QR code that I couldn't figure out and he was very polite in explaining to me haha The burgers were all fantastic! I don't remember the cute names but we had the classic, black bean, Charleston and Santa Fe. All were cooked how we wanted - mine mid rare of course! Fries were okay, nothing to write about, but they had other options if you wanted them. I loved my beer and my picky husband enjoyed his old fashioned and couldn't believe it was only $6!! If you're in the area, def stop by!

    Very cold Yuengling!

    Awesome burgers. My wife's had the Charleston and I had the Greek. Good sized patty both were cooked perfectly and had a great grilled flavor! My draft Yuengling was very cold, which to me is a very good thing. They do have an extensive mule drink listing which I am looking forward to sampling. Not too busy for a late lunch on Saturday 5/20/23, I think we got there a little after 1pm, but limited parking. Just looking at the parking lot almost full we almost drove away thinking it was going to be too crowded, but is was surprising to us that it was a lite crowd. Glad we didn't drive away. Highly recommend, and will be back!

    The Brunch Burger and The Chicken BLT

    I came from out of town and went to visit this place with my dad and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The burger and chicken sandwhich exceeded my expectations. Never had a burger so well cooked. Definitely a 10 out of 10, it was not your average burger.Our server was the best. If you have time I say give it a try because you for sure won't be disappointed .

    This is the 2nd of the salads-probably the same one bc it had just as many wet, wilted, soggy pieces as the original one I sent back.

    Sadly, this place has gone downhill in food quality and staff service-- we've been coming here for 7 yrs and are here for a lot of state level sporting events and when passing through. I'm not recommending it to people I know anymore. The first set of sweet potatoes I sent back bc they were burnt-- so apparently I pissed the waitress off bc when I showed her the the soggy, wilted and wet lettuce in the salad- she walked away angrily dropping pieces off the plate until another employee asked what was wrong, to which she replied "I guess the salad isn't good enough either"- instead of actually realizing why I didn't want to eat it, and just making it right. I dare her or anyone to serve that to their own family member-- let alone a paying customer.

    The Memphis burger minus the onion straws.

    Great burger place if you are downtown. It has a nice atmosphere and the Memphis burger is great! Always like coming here when I am downtown.

    Devine Chicken Sandwich!!

    We have eaten here several times. Both my bride an I are self employed, so it's not unusual for us to snag dinner around 8pm. I try to avoid 77 when it's after 8 because I always feel rushed. The staff seems ready to clean up and go home. The food here is really good. They have a nice bar in the back and a good selection of beer on tap. Unlike Backstreet's across the road, 77 is not interested in developing business after 8pm. It's a shame, they have the look and feel of a late night place. The two stars is for the rush. I'd give the a solid 4 to 5 for the food!

    My dad came here about 10 years ago while visiting some friends in the area, and wanted me to try…read moreit. It did not hold up to standards from last time, but was still fairly good. Pawleys Front Porch is a dive bar, and has been featured on an episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. We arrived about 15 minutes after they opened, and were the first to arrive. Even after us being in the restaurant for an hour, only two other parties arrived to dine. It honestly felt like a ghost town, and hope that it is not like this every day. Their fried pickles are actually pretty good! They are crispy, hot, and have a good dill taste (good pickles). The chicken tenders are good! They aren't frozen, are crispy, and have good taste. The burger was supposed to come with a pretzel bun, but apparently they haven't had a pretzel bun in three years lol. Why is it still on the menu? We don't know. His burger was a bit overcooked and toppings weren't quite as high quality as last time. Our server was wonderful, and constantly came around to refill our drinks and get us anything we need. It did take a bit of a long time for our food to come out, but that's alright. As long as the food is good we don't mind. We hope to see the restaurant return back to how good it used to be!

    We waited 15 minutes at a filthy outdoor bar. The bar-tender finally came out and looked at us but…read moreinstead of getting our order got others orders and went back inside. I went inside and said, " excuse me sir" he barely turned around. I continued with, " my husband and I have been sitting outside at the bar for for a bit now. " "Well. You were just out there so I was wondering if you would please take our order?" He fully turned around this time and glared at me and said in a rude manner and loud voice, " Yeah, when I get a second chance!" Then turned around and went back outside to deliver the others ( that he did not blatantly ignore) their drinks. I walked outside and told my husband we were leaving. Unless you do not want to be served, want to be treated like you are an inconvenience when you politely ask to be served, and to deal with dirty conditions( I would steer clear from this place!
