Traveling in a business trip and starving is never good. As I was passing through the area, Yelp…read morebrought me to Dallas Tavern. It was mid afternoon with a small late lunch crowd. Ordered wings and loaded fries. Not sure I would call them loaded as they come with bacon, cheese and scallions. On this day, they came out with cheese and bacon. I had to request the scallions and they were brought out in a small cup. The fries were...ok, not HOT. The wings..definitely crispy however most were missing the dry rub and had feathers all over them. Being a major wing fan, this may have slowed my roll with ordering wings anytime soon. My advice to the restaurant. 1. Source cleaner, higher quality wings. 2. Up the game on the loaded fries, more ingredients and make sure what's included is on the fries...deliver them HOT. 3. Have salt and pepper on the tables.

I ordered the loaded fries. They were to have cheese, bacon and scallions. They came out with shredded cheese on the middle of the pile of fries, bacon with ranch on the side and that's all. I had to ask for the scallions but by then it was too late The cheese had already chilled and they fell off. The fries needed to be crispier. The iced tea was ok. We had to ask for salt as there was none on the table. This place could be good. It was lacking greatly.

Just ate at The Pickle "Bistro" and Bar…read more It's not a bistro', it's a bar, with just bar food. Not what Yelp says. We ordered a hamburger with pickles and were told the don't have pickles. Not that they were out. They don't have them...... The Pickle doesn't have pickles for sandwiches. If you like to drink and play pool, this is the place for you. I gave it an extra star because some clientele might like it.

The Pickle Bar & Bistro is a cute little local spot that honestly reminds me of a classic dive…read morebar--in the best way! It's very laid-back and chill, definitely not a huge party or club-type atmosphere. The drinks are reasonably priced, and they usually have some pretty good specials, like $2 beers and $7 mixed drinks, which is hard to complain about! They have pool tables, plenty of seating both inside and outside, and even a bar outside, so there's plenty of space to hang out. I haven't tried the food yet, so I can't really speak on that, but I'd definitely come back for the drinks and atmosphere. My only complaint is that I swear every night is karaoke night , but honestly, that's part of the charm! Overall, it's a fun, relaxed little local bar if you're looking for somewhere to grab a drink, play some pool, and hang out without the craziness of a big nightlife spot.

They have tons of local bands too that are just starting so another great way to support local artists. We came for the Tantric concert but heard a couple opening bands that were fantastic!

We will definitely be back!

Returning on Sunday 6/8 after my first visit 12/24. It was…read moreSinger/Songwriter evening and I was mainly there to see Todd E. It's not a terrible drive from Fort Mill, SC, about 45 minute on a Sunday afternoon. I was able to park right in front of the Venue and my ticket was waiting at will call. A smooth and easy check-in and I was able to talk to Todd before the show. I've seen him several times when he collaborates with other musicians but this was the first time solo. He played a mix of originals and covers. After several songs others joined him for several songs. They were all great on a Dave Mason original, Feelin Alright. Many know the song from the Joe Cocker cover. The band was great, Todd with some great guitar licks and a lead riff, the bass player was laying the line, the drummer on time and the keyboard player, Bazz The GranDude, with a nice mini-solo. Very impressed with the lady on the mixing board. She was out front on her iPad and got the vocal & instrument mix solid. It was a fun time and I hope to return before the summers done.

It was mostly empty when I went as it was an odd time of day but I could see it being very fun in the evenings. My coffee was delicious and fresh brewed.

My sandwich came with Swiss cheese but I ate it anyway for the sake of time. The nice server offered to remake my sandwich, and actually did, but I told her not to - she promised a discount for the mistake. No Discount $5.00 Diet Coke $3.00 Tap water $40.00 total with tip We will not be back. I felt violated when we left.

Stopped by here for a pit stop. The first parking lot we came across was a little misleading as it…read moresaid "Brewery Parking" but it was the overflow lot. We did find the brewery just a short way up. It's a fairly large brewery. It was quiet as they had just opened and they had plenty of board games and seating. Seems like it was a very laid back brewery that would be great to come in to just chill. We ordered at the front and then sat ourselves. We got a flight and also ordered a Hawaiian pizza. The beer was pretty good, we really liked the Smores Brown and the pizza was delicious. Service was friendly and fairly quickly and we loved that it was dog friendly inside. Would recommend!

One downside was learning that pets are not allowed inside--even though they don't serve food--which is always a bit of a letdown for us. That said, Luna was welcome on the outdoor patio... unfortunately, it was about 20 degrees outside. We didn't let the cold ruin the experience, though. They have patio heaters and warm drinks available, which helped a lot. We grabbed comfy outdoor chairs right next to the Christmas tree, and the setting was really nice, especially with the water view just steps away. It never got overly busy, but there was a steady flow of people coming and going, which gave it a relaxed, lively feel without being crowded. We both ordered the Hardywood Gingerbread Stout (9.2% ABV), which was their only holiday beer available at the time--they mentioned they had another seasonal option but had already sold out. The beer was pretty good, though definitely strong. We actually left to check out the only other bar in town, but it turned out to be closed, so we circled back to The River Room for another round. Two gingerbread stouts came out to $14 total which felt very reasonable. They do charge a small membership fee (around $1) since it's a private club, and we were told that fee goes toward animal conservation, which is a nice bonus. Overall, despite the cold and the indoor pet restriction, we really enjoyed the ambiance, holiday decor, and relaxed vibe--and would definitely stop back again when the weather is warmer.
