If you're not local and don't know about red carpet, you may be a little taken aback on first…read morevisit. This is definitely a dive bar but a beloved dive bar to the locals. The decor is what it is and we don't mind. It is pretty much the only place in Charleston that has an outdoor patio and a rather large one at that. It is also dog-friendly on the patio. Thursday nights in the summer they have a grill night and offer your choice out of two meat options and comes with a couple sides. Very delicious and very reasonably priced. FYI, if you're interested in eating on Thursdays, you should call them in the afternoon to reserve your meal as they usually are reserved up pretty quickly. It's not something you can arrive at the bar and just order. They sponsor the local kickball league so you'll often see young folks in their team T-shirt's hanging out on the patio after the game. You'll see a diverse mix of people at this bar and it's definitely a safe bar to imbibe at. The drinks are very inexpensive compared to anywhere else. Great spot! Locals approved!

It's definitely a **low-key** joint, feeling like a sports bar and a secret, silent society where…read morethe only rule is that the **locals** must watch the game through intense, unblinking focus. You could hear the crickets outside calling plays. Honestly, the quiet was perfect; it meant I could fully enjoy my existential dread without background noise. Overall .... good and clean

If you are a Music Lover or a Musician. Your CUP runneth OVER at "The Empty Glass!!"…read more Every night of the week is something different. The stage will either have local talent (out of town folk too, lol!!) doing "Open Mic," and a Gig who plays every week who brings the Freak, Funk, & Awesome out EVERY time!!!! Thank you Spurg!! ALL other nights the stage is filled with the most diverse, great, different, normal, unusual, old, new, & regular rock, old, new, & regular country, soul, funk, alternative, R&B, punk, hip-hop, rockabilly, weird, not weird, hard, not hard, wild, soft, silly, serious, from absolutely inaudible, to "that was beautiful!!" and MANY other types of Musical Genres!!! So, if the fabulous nightly musical talents don't woo you in... Maybe knowing Chris, "The Glass's First Class!!" generally tries to have all the "new" and most unusual Beers and Lagers available for his customers to indulge will entice you just enough to come on in. Plus, the kitchen's open late and they have some really tasty Pizzas and wings, etc... There is ALWAYS a Doorman here who watches outside and inside. I have honestly never felt unsafe here. If anyone would need an escort to their car, they would make sure that would happen, so "no worries!!" There are many reasons that I enjoy going to The Empty Glass. I have always felt so welcome, the staff, the owner, the patrons, and the entertainment as well, are the most down-to-earth, and friendliest people you could ever meet!!! When you walk in, they instantly greet you and make you feel like you belong. Another reason I respect The Glass.... And this may sound silly to some people... But it is one of my biggest pet peeves!!! The Glass has a Closing Time and They DO NOT Close BEFORE Closing Time!! 1 customer or 135, it doesn't matter.... They stay open.... If the Sign Says: OPEN Monday 2pm-11pm Then you can bet your sweet ass....they will be there on: MONDAY: 2pm-11pm!!!!!! I have gone to many establishments anywhere from 8:30pm, 10pm, 11pm, midnight, 1:30am, etc... Drove 10-50 miles and because they were "slow".... They closed early.... . And to add to my frustration.... A big sign on the door or lit up on the parking lot with the Bar Hours posted in BIG BLACK LETTERS to CLOSE like at 2:00AM. & I look at my clock and it's 10:40PM!!!!! LMAO!!! To me, that shows total disrespect for your customers & their time. If you're going to close early, put ?'s on your closing time. JS.... So, that's my spill... Now I guess I have to go get "My Empty Glass" refill!!!

The best bar in town. So much fun. 8bit brunch is awesome, great service, Jordan and Calvin are…read morethe best bartenders in Charleston.
