The second floor has a nice sized dance floor, DJ, stripper pole (yes, a stripper pole), and another large bar. Both floors have bathrooms. There is an outside area too for the smokers, I can't comment on that area as I've never really been out there. Trio isn't always booming with people. I've been there some nights when there wasn't a lot of people and other nights when there was a line out of the door and the building was packed. I have no idea how to predict how many people will be there. I usually find my way upstairs, as I like to dance and the DJs are always great. 9 times out of 10 you will see some bachelorette party sitting in the little area with the stripper pole...so ladies, if you want to go here for your bachelorette party, assign one of your maids to stake out the pole for you (oh and bring some Clorox wipes...who knows who's spun around that thing). If you want to go out with a group of people and have a loud, fun time dancing the night away...this is the place for you. If you want a more sophisticated evening out, try another place.

The owners did a tremendous job at curating an extensive cocktail menu with modern twists to an array of tasty classics. Mother! is a go-to favorite that I revisit often with its glitter flare serve in a sophisticated coupe. If youre there with friends the Margarita and Mojito flight is perfect to share (or enjoy yourself). Complimenting the cocktail menu are several snacks that always seem to pair perfectly with the cocktails including delicious flatbreads and desserts to enjoy.

They had some servers walking around with some small bites which were all good. (Hot chicken sandwich, waffle fries, rib tips) definitely came in clutch bc I was so hungry. We got some shots from the bar and they came in fun frozen glasses that we were told to throw at the bell in the back. A lot harder than it looks I shall say! lol The vibes were high and we went to check out the upper level. This area had a small bar tucked on the inside which wasn't as busy which was nice to be able to get a drink fast. They were doing 2 complimentary options which was very nice. Then you can walk outdoor to the back patio area that also had a bar. This area was very congested so we did not go out there, but perhaps next time. I liked that they had some big water jugs out and it was very low key, not too divey but with that country vibe. I'm interested to see what this place is like on another night bc I can imagine it bringing in more of the college and early 20's crowd. But overall we had a fun time.

It felt cozy without being stuffy and was a great spot for people-watching. The cocktails were well made and balanced, and we got lucky enough to snag a table. The space is pretty small though, so by the time we arrived the bar was full and a lot of people were standing with drinks. Even so, the atmosphere was fun and energetic. Definitely a great spot for a nightcap if you're in the area.

(On occasion, I rant about how we need more cocktail bars and wine bars that don't serve food at all or just snacks like nuts - don't get me started.) Last Saint is a really cool dual concept cocktail bar. The front of Last Saint is more casual - small, cozy, allows walk-ins. But you can also make reservations (or try to get lucky walking in) at the Annex. The Annex is their weekends-only cocktail experience in the back of Last Saint. You walk to the back of the bar and press ring the bell by the yellow door. Someone answers and seats at one of six seats at the bar and three small (but private) tables. The Annex is a no-menu experience. The friendly and creative staff ask you questions about your preferences for drinks and then make you something that fits the bill. It was personal and fun, and we enjoyed all the drinks we had. A reservation at the Annex is good for a 1.5 hour time frame, which was perfect for us to have two drinks before closing out and heading to our dinner reservation. We sat at the bar, which I loved, because we got to chat with the staff and watch them make our and others' drinks while we enjoyed our creative cocktails. The staff have a wide knowledge of cocktails and an almost endless supply of ingredients to choose from when making your drinks. A truly fun experience. One I haven't had in any other city. I wish there were more bars like Last Saint!

I'm sure the vibes change from day to day with the crowds but I'd say there was a variety of people there, older, college kids, bachelorette party, wedding party. It definitely gives dive bar energy and drinks are affordable which was nice. Everyone was quite friendly there and it's a great place to just be a spectator if you don't like to sing. lol I actually got called up to sing just before they shut down and everyone was really vibin! I'll need to come back because I didn't get to spend much time there but all in all it was a fun time even going solo.

I'm beyond glad this option was available because I don't believe we would have had a good time had we just participated in a public setting trying to karaoke. What I will say is that $100 per hour to reserve this space is a joke. We booked this private area for $200. We were enclosed in by a curtain and had to compete with the music and noise from the bar and others singing karaoke. We were literally placed in a 4x4 space (a bit exaggerated, but not big AT ALL). The space contained 1 tv screen, a computer, 1 microphone, 4-5 broken bar stools, an inflatable guitar, an exit door, another door to storage space, and the smell of old spilt liquor and urine. Not the most pleasant setup to pay $200 for. BUT we made the most of it considering the amount had already been paid. We were interrupted multiple times by employees fetching things from the storage closet and random guests who wanted to peek through the curtains to see what was on the other side. I believe my expectations were high based off prior experiences of booking private karaoke rooms at other establishments and assuming this would meet the standards.

I was on a sister trip with my older sister and on one of my morning runs in the beautiful city of Charleston I ran passed Groovers.

He was so nice and funny and made some really good espresso martinis for my sister and I. The ambiance was so nice inside. I loved seeing the different vinyls on the wall that made up the decor. There is also a lot of seating within the venue and who doesn't love a nice clean bathroom! It was giving are you the cousin to Buc-ee's?

The music was so fun, throwback after throwback (early 2000s) and the drinks were cheap! I felt like the crowd was younger (I'm late 20s) so they weren't dancing much but me and my friends were (we knew the songs... it looked like the gen z patrons didn't). There was plenty of room on the dance floor and we even were able to sit down at a booth with a table. So we were able to put our drinks down and get on the dance floor! This place is cute for a date or a night out with friends. Such a fun vibe. I hope more people find out about this place and come check it out! Casual attire is fine. Check out their Instagram, they announce who will be DJing each night so you can know what the vibe is. I saw they have like live bands sometimes too so it seems like a cool spot for all different kinds of music!
