I stopped in for an early dinner one day and was so excited about the Pistachio Brie Skillet I got years ago only to find it no longer on the menu... womp womp. Being in the mood for cheese, we started with mozzarella sticks instead. It came out as half moons of fried cheese and being that they were but in half, that 3 little slices of fried cheese cut in half for $11 which is just wild. For entrees at the table we had the Greek Grilled Shrimp salad, a buffalo mac spud, and a build your own bacon cheeseburger. Overall the entrees were all solid with good portions and the buffalo mac was the winner of the table. I understand that prices are going up and I always try to support local, but I feel like the fried cheese was a bit overkill. The price for the quality doesn't exactly match up, but we still enjoyed our meal. read more

The arcade games are just a money grab at this point. No longer has pinball or anything fun. Just crane and prize games where you can't win anything and each game is 2 a try. read more

Tucked away in a small shopping plaza with a couple boutique stores close by... this little gem of a place had an amazing menu... everyday favorites with 'foodie' upgrades. The food was stellar, the drinks strong and fancy... and the service was very fast, at the bar... there's typically a small line for the tables on weekends but it would have been worth the wait! Well done! read more

I love Thomas, Edward, and Evan so much. They keep this place alive. Food is good as well and the servers and other staff are always very nice!! read more

Garage 75 - Chicken Wings - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Not sure how I feel about this place. First time we have ever gotten something from here and we've lived here in James Island for 15+ years. It is a sports bar and restaurant and we went in on a Saturday. The greeting staff appeared to be more interested in their phones. The waiter was friendly enough. Wife had the shrimp platter, though it was a pretty good meal all in all. I had a shrimp or two, a piece of broccoli, and both the potato and the potato jacket by itself (real test of a baked potato is the jacket). I thought the shrimp was tasty enough, broccoli and potato were both good. The potato jacket tasted burnt. I had the chicken fried steak. The meal itself was pretty good, the gravy was well seasoned, the mashed potatoes were fine enough, and the great beans were delicious. My only negative was the plate with the razor sharp broken edges, there were five chipped edges on my plate. read more

Clean sports bar on the way to Folly Beach. I came with friends for Team Trivia night. We had a blast and won 2nd place! I had the Shrimp Po Boy and Chips and my group shared the loaded nachos. I tried their Red Raspberry Italian Ice Sour Ale which had a fruity flavor like a Sour Patch Kid. Skittles was a wonderful and friendly server. Had such a great experience! Absolutely delicious! read more

Garage 75 was recommended to me to take my son, we decided to check it out on his birthday as he wanted to play games. It is definitely a bar atmosphere, pretty dirty -- our shoes were sticking to the ground when we walked and the games had trash all over them. This didn't phase my 4 year old at all as he had a blast playing all the games. Food was mediocre, very fried. The beer selection was fine, not great. Service was okay -- the credit card machine gives suggested tips and 20% was the lowest option (what happened to 18%?!). All in all, we probably won't return but my son had fun during our visit. read more

Always a great stop for wings! We've found them to be the best classic wing preparation in Charleston. Their ranch is so good too. The boiled peanuts are great to start with. The side of fries is overpriced but they're good fries. Service is great - friendly and attentive. It can get a bit loud with the arcade side but is a sports bar so not a big deal at all. Parking is easy on weekends in the shopping center. read more

The service was good. The food was good. The arcade was horrific. A lot of the games were broke, but still took your money. The crane games are rigged so nobody ever can win. The games are two dollars apiece, but they sell your credit credits that are a dollar apiece to trick you. If you're coming for something to eat, it's OK, but if you're coming for something for the kids to do stay away. read more

Fun spot to grab a bite to eat with lots of televisions to watch sports. I had the beet salad which was a large portion. It was missing that sweet and salty balance that beet salads usually have, but it was ok. The burger was thick and juicy. Almost impossible to hold and eat, but it was very tasty. The prices are great! Would like to try other things next time. read more

Always a good time! Staff is AMAZING, food is great, beers are cold. Always something fun happening!! read more

LETS START WITH THE SETTING OF THE PLACE!!! When you walk in the people here are all smiling and laughing. The aura of this place is top tier amazing!!! Next you have the friendliest of waitresses willing to help out with drink options (due to me being pregnant I wanted a mocktail) and she knew exactly what would hit the spot. Next up the FOOD: when I tell you it was so good I couldn't stop eating it. The portions are larger than expected for an average person. I could have settled for half a sandwich and chips. Overall very very pleased!!! 10/10 overall!! read more

My favorite time to come to Garage 75 is for wing night on Thursday. If you stay long enough, you'll get the chance to participate in trivia as well. The onion rings are quite greasy and weren't a very big portion for the price, but they had good flavor. I've enjoyed all of the wing sauces I've tried and they come out nice and crispy. read more

Stopped in on a Thursday evening around 7:30 pm. Place was packed. Enjoyed the vibe and music was good. Lots of games for the kids, 3 were down. Must use a prepaid card.

My wife and I stopped by while in the area. This place is nice. It's like a sports bar with arcade games. It seamed clean and the staff was very friendly. We started with the fried pickles. They were okay nothing special. I had a cuban, it was very good. My wife had there burger. She loved it. The prices were not bad at all for the area. We would come back. read more

I finally got a weekend off and enjoyed some family time. We were here because I checked them out on Yelp and they had good reviews and good looking food. It is also my experience. The only thing there was a complaint about was the stacked potatoes that my mother-in-law had with her salmon. I'm not big on chicken wings that are bigger than my fist. That's just me but that was my only complaint. You play games for an hour was a lot of fun. TVs everywhere. Super cool waitress. I got my game on the big screen right in front of me. Go braves. People inside seem to be bandwagon Alabama fans so they were going crazy. I simply don't believe there are that many Alabama fans in Charleston. Got to be on the bandwagon. But all food was good I will definitely be back. Super cool environment and food came fast. read more

Garage 75, located on James Island, is one of Charleston's hottest spots. The atmosphere and environment are top-notch. The restaurant is basically split into two parts, with the left side having most of the seating, a full bar and live music; and the right side featuring dozens of arcade style games and additional seating. It's a great place to bring the family and let the kids play games while you wait for the food. For an appetizer, I recommend the Corn Doggy Dawgs. For an entrée, I highly recommend the 14oz Black Angus New York Strip, Baked Potato and Side Salad. The steak was cooked perfectly, seasoned just enough and juicy. I also recommend the Holy City Pluff Mud Porter Oil Can - it has a nice taste and is very refreshing! I wish we lived closer, so we could visit more often. Regardless, we will return next time we are in the area!! read more

One of the best restaurants I've ever been to. I had a twelve piece chicken, and it had no fat or chewy pieces, it was absolutely delicious. Overall great service and amazing food, 100% recommend! read more

shorted the blackened chicken on the salad. Cuban sandwich was soggy nasty and cold. Brussel had way too much maple syrup . disappointed. food not good read more

Wow, what a great experience. I live on James Island and have been hearing about how good the Garage Ribeye is for a while, but didn't try it until today. Deliciously seasoned, tender, well prepared, and comes with a salad and big baked potato. It was big enough to share with my 9 year old daughter and still have a few bites leftover. I'm so full. I did call in and place the order for pick up. Timing couldn't have been better as it came out of the kitchen as I was paying. This is gonna be a regular thing. read more

Ordered hamburgers and boneless wings and a few beers. The burgers were good. Came with fried chips which were ok. Not my personal favorite. Beers were cold. Wait staff was attentive. The place was pretty loud with music and a bingo game was finishing up. It was friendly and decent impromptu stop. read more

The ambiance looked decent coming in but the service was awful. Waitress was rude and unresponsive to several asks only had 5 adults who ordered and the kids all were playing games. In the beginning with only 4 people sr the table it took over 12 minutes to get a glass of water and the restaurant didn't even have many tables at all. Took forever to have our food order taken. When we did order food, she forgot a simple appetizer item and by the time she came back to even check on the table we were basically done with our food. I mentioned to the hostess that we were missing the Brie skillet early on and she said she would check and instead of actually checking she was just at the hostess stand chit chatting with another employee. Gratuity was automatically added at 18% and was completely undeserving. Usually don't write negative views The arcade area seems fine for the kids if you need somewhere to entertain them but don't expect to get good service or good food. read more

The staff is cool and the drinks are good. I love the wings. I also recently played in the arcade and really enjoyed it. The ax throwing is the best and the driving game. I love that this place is open late since everything on the island closes by 9:30. Worth stopping by and having a drink..also whatever you do DON'T order the catfish nuggets.. read more

Came for dinner on a weeknight. The drink menu does not include prices for beers. The menu is odd. I ordered a cheeseburger and my husband got hot wings. My burger was not very flavorful and the bun was stale. My husband didn't like the sauce on his wings, said it tasted weird. I found it odd that we were one of the only customers in there but there were tons of employees goofing off or sitting at the bar. Staff is not very friendly or attentive. read more

Love this place!!! The staff kicks ass, late night food and great drinks. Not to mention the arcade is a great way to break the ice for a first date. read more

An interesting bar style restaurant in a roadside shopping center on Folly Road (on the right as you go out to the beach). We went there to hear a friend's two piece folk group (really good) and sat toward the back as there was a bit of a crowd, but plenty of parking spaces available. The menu (see my photo) is for flatbread sort of pizza choices. I had the "Steak Flat" which was quite good with tender meat that had been tastefully marinated. A bit of vinaigrette over the meat and the mozzarella topped it off nicely. We also happened to be there when they had $1 off of white wine, which was the "house wine" but good and not bitter or off-tasting at all. Yes, I will be back. read more

Garage 75 - Wednesday night specials - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Enjoyed the casual atmosphere of this sports bar , arcade and restaurant. Among our group we ordered the ribeye, wings, fried oysters and potato wedges. All was satisfying. The ribeye had a really good flavor. I ordered medium and unfortunately it arrived medium well . I did eat it all though and didn't mention to the waitress because she was busy and I was starving . Once my bill arrived I noticed the price of the ribeye was a couple dollars higher than the menu price and I thought that was odd considering I did not add or order anything extra. Not cool. I didn't address this to the waitress because she seemed busy. Although I might venture here again with friends, I personally wouldn't go out of my way to dine here again. Decent option if you live nearby . read more

Great spot to catch a game on Saturday - lots of big screens; nice beer menu and the bar food was excellent. Our server, Maggie, was great - wonderful personality and tasty recommendations off the menu. Nice decor and really not all that loud - even with the game playing and the bar full. Back again to catch the next Tiger game!! read more

Great food and service! Fun game room for the kids and the young at heart!. Great place to watch a ballgame.

Oh my god, their chicken strips and wings are to DIE for. Not only is the food good, but the staff is nice, they have plenty of sports games on, and they have plenty of arcade games to play. One of the better establishments in James Island! read more

I always enjoy this James Island local bar. Most of the time I sit at the bar, regardless if I am there to eat or grab a couple of drinks. The food is delicious! And they have different specials throughout the week. They have plenty of large, flat screens that can be seen easily from pretty much anywhere in the restaurant. Half of the place is devoted to food service and the other half is full of arcade games, pool tables and fun times. They have live music from time to time and also serve brunch. It's one of those places where you wouldn't feel weird going alone. Most everyone there, both patrons and staff alike are friendly and will make you feel right at home. read more

Family vacation- looking over casual atmosphere for steak. So we select Garage 75. And this begins a 5-star experience. Great service, great food, great appetizers, great drinks, great casual atmosphere. Actually the best meal my family has enjoyed this week on vacation in Charleston. The steak and potato were perfectly seasoned and to the perfect temperature. My sister, bro-I'm-law, and myself each for the ribeye. Alll three ordered different temperatures. We ALL enjoyed it. My bro-in-law said it's the best steak he's ever had in a restaurant. I recommend this place as highly as I can. Super enjoyable experience. read more

Garage 75 - The ribeye!!! - Bars Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Restaurant was very noisy. Food order was wrong. Sent the burger back when it was wrong and it took an excessive about of time for it to come back. It should have been put at the front of the line since our other order was already served. All people at the table should be served at the same time. We couldn't see the cheese on the burger but was told it was melted into the burger. Buns seemed poor quality. Side salad was very fresh. Granted they didn't charge us for the burger. Might return but won't go at a busy time, especially BINGO night or burger night, neither of which we knew before we went it. Based on 2 previous visits we were disappointed this time. read more

Been to a lot of barcades in my life, this is probably the worst. It has the prices of a dave and busters (think $1.50 a game for about 60-90 secs of play) but not even the diversity. The games were mediocre, and a third were out of order. Also, those swipe cards make sure you end up with leftovers that nothing is cheap enough to play. Even the crane machines were like the weakest cranes you could imagine, not shot in hell of picking up something as tiny as a rubber ducky. I know that's their thing, but come on. The service was a little weird and begrudging, which isn't something I'd usually comment on, but it was noticeable. The drinks were actually not bad for price, but price is about $3 more than you'll find on the old menus listed on yelp. Definitely a disappointment. Hopefully someone establishes a decent barcade in the city someday read more

When I first moved here everyone raved about this place! Eventhough playing the games, when they work, was about the only thing going on here! The food and service aren't even sub par! Steaks poor quality and overpriced! Staff acts like it's a bother to do the job the are paid for and expect a tip!! Floors are disgusting! Idk how this place stayed open. I feel bad writing this review because I have family who love it, but I don't have money to waste ,especially when a home sandwich is cheaper and taste better than expensive sub par food!!!!! read more

I went to Garage 75 for the first time Friday. I met yo with colleagues for Happy Hour. I like the set up, and love that there are games to be played while having a drink. We enjoyed appetizers, and drinks. Everything we had was delicious, except for one which I'll get to next. The flatbread was delicious-a nice mix of sweet and savory. The mac & cheese was just right-could rival the best at any hot spot. The nachos were out of this world. The potatoes were fresh sliced, and cooked perfectly. The toppings were perfectly combined, with a great amount of each. The disappointing dish-the Warm Crab Dip. This was the worst crab dip I have ever tried. We were all put off when we saw the brownish color of it. We tried to eat a couple bites, but it was just disgusting. The service was excellent, and I definitely plan to return, but I would like to see some changes made to the crab dip! read more
