    Hush puppies
    Pam M.

    We stopped by Loose Change in Clemson and ordered burgers, a veggie wrap, a club sandwich and hush puppies. The food hit the spot--solid pub grub done right. The homemade potato chips were a standout (huge bonus points for that!). The place has that perfect college-town charm: laid-back, funky, and welcoming. The bartender and staff were super friendly, and the whole vibe made it feel like the kind of local spot you'd want to become a regular at. Dan is definitely a cool dude! Definitely worth a visit if you're in town!

    Fun place. Great dive bar. Fun bartenders. Super cheap which is great! I'd totally go back and try food.

    Zucchini fries to die for!!
    Kendra H.

    Get the zucchini fries they are amazing! Can't wait to eat them again! We got them as an appetizer and I got the bird dog which was soo much food and delicious, I tried the jalapeño tater tots as my side and they were good not overly spicy. Would like to try regular fries next time. My husband got a burger and it was amazing! Puts 5 guys to shame. Dripping deliciousness. For an appetizer, one drink and two meals it was almost $40. To be expected in downtown and the quality was amazing.

    a crowd of people in a bar

    We stopped by Loose Change late on Saturday night and as you can imagine in a college town, the bar was FULL of college kids. We were easily the oldest people in there so we stuck out like sore thumbs. A bar like this was definitely my vibe 10-12 years ago but wow, how fast time goes by! The walls are full of dollar bills which I couldn't quite figure out so I'm curious about the story behind that. From what I remember, the drinks were cheap but I cannot speak to the food. I saw someone mention spicy ranch which is right up my alley so we'll have to go earlier and try the food next time. I would say Loose Change is a great college bar but maybe hit it earlier to avoid the younger crowd.

    Good people and great service. I'm far removed from college but fell in love with the college prices. A must visit again.

    Went here for my dad's 89th birthday dinner. Being a hotel restaurant you never know how good it…read morewill be but this place didn't disappoint. Service was great, the vibe was super nice overlooking the lake. And the food was delish. I had the steak and frites and it was delish. Other at the table were really happy with their meals. Everything from rack of ribs, seafood scampi, scallops, and wraps. Nice selection of menu items and everything that came out our table enjoyed. Great experience!

    This restaurant is located in Lakeside Lodge in Clemson. As I'm writing this review I realize that…read moreI didn't get the full ambiance for this restaurant. Our group of 8 was seated right inside the entrance of the restaurant and my back was to the lake side view. Therefore, I can only say I experienced a typical hotel bar restaurant vibe. Our server did a good job-even taking a minute to take a group photo for us. The brunch menu had a variety of choices. I chose the Renfrow Wings off of the Shareables Menu and a side salad. This consisted of 13 chicken wings so I had plenty of left overs. I ordered 1/2 teriyaki and 1/2 bbq. It was hard to distinguish between the two, but they were good. I need to go back and give this restaurant another try. This time I'll make sure to enjoy the view, maybe even sit outside on the patio if it's cool enough. I know this sounds strange, but I'm giving them a 4 star in anticipation of that lake view...
