We nice. Seems more on the EDM side of things. Mainly didn't like how tap was available when you pay the entrance but not for the bar. You needed cash/physical card which sucks. Bathrooms were surprisingly clean. read more

I ought to revisit ASAP because it had a great dance party and who doesn't love those?

Had so much fun at trio with my friends! They had Happy Dads which are my favorite drink!! read more

Trio - Lounges Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

I would definitely recommend this night club. The service, staff, nugget buckets and atmosphere are all amazing. The bring in local and well known djs and occasionally have pop up events. read more

See all

This is by far the best night club in Charleston. Great staff. Great Production. Great Energy.

Sean, the bartender? Coolest dude I have ever met. Guy had me all night, made sure all my friends were good, and when my friend was a little too dizzy, he damn near carried him home. I respect that man. He did a fantastic job. Respect to Sean at trio read more

Great dance environment. Had an awesome time for a friends birthday. Drinks are pretty expensive. read more

Best night life in Chucktown! Love the DJs, cool people and a fun atmosphere. Dancing is infectious and drinks are top notch.

Best club to dance at in Charleston! Went one night a while back and they had such a great DJ that played a bunch of house/dubstep EDM bangers. We need more places like this in South Carolina, so I appreciate when clubs are hiring like actually good DJs that are playing fun club music that you can dance to and not just remixes of the top hits charts. read more

Bob Moses was unoriginal and unenjoyable. A nice venue but a bad and over priced set. Feels a bit like a strip mall but the sound system is nice and the staff is highly attentive. Drinks are a good price. read more

Best music in town! Only night club in Charleston to consistently bring in world class talent from across the globe as well as the best local talents (GEO). Amazing energy from the staff & people on the dance floor. Also if you get the opportunity to purchase a vip table for the night you won't regret it! read more

Great vibes. Great drinks. Great bartenders. Just come have a great time guys. N leave the drama at home.

Not in the best part of town and it's incredibly crowded. Private shows have the overflow from the actual bar, security is very tense and will have no problem shoving through you to tend to bottle service. I wouldn't attend a show here again, but the bathrooms are very clean! Lol. read more

An absolute embarrassment of an establishment. if I could leave a negative review I would. Spent an a ton of money on a table with a large party to be treated terribly. Place is a joke. I've been to clubs around the world and have never been treated so poorly. read more

Had a horrible experience when I went there for the first time in 8 years. Was having a polite conversation then was aggressively approached by a bouncer who told me I had to leave now. He proceeded to aggressively force me out, another bouncer admitted that i had done nothing wrong. I'm convinced it was because I am gay and was slightly flamboyantly having a conversation with a female. Have filed a BBB report and will never go back read more

Great place for brunch. Enjoyed the setup and service. Drinks were great and food was great

Always a fun environment with up to date, popular DJs and Artists playing on the regular. Just open a new Tiki Patio out back along with a food truck that has AMAZING food. it is the perfect way to bring in the summertime! Kate always makes the best drinks and sets the mood to party! i can't wait to dance the night away every weekend at Trio Charleston! read more

Trio - #TikiMeToTrio - Lounges Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Potential patrons take note: Trio is where you want to be if you're an attention-seeking uncultured rube. It would be remise if I did not mention how unprofessional the staff was...Trio is probably the worst bar/club/lounge I've seen to date--dreadful music, questionable staff, and an all-around terrible vibe. Oof read more

If I could give the waitresses here 5 stars, I would. They were super professional and friendly. Any spill on the dance floor they were on top of cleaning up and would walk around making sure everyone had a drink. I was DD and they still made sure I had water and soda to drink. This was the best part of being here. Now onto the negative. I came here as an invitation to a birthday party and we had a reserved spot in the corner. The place was unbelievably hot and it wasn't even full yet. The place should invest in some fans. The club needs to hire better DJ's. The music was mediocre at best. The DJ would play the music to songs and then sing the lyrics himself, mostly out of tune and with a synthesizer piano in between songs. Someone was there playing a saxophone WAY out of tune. It was like they were playing there own songs over the music. He had a big mix of different types of music which is good but he played Gold Digger by Kanye West 3 times in 2 hours, and he sang the lyrics.... I would not recommend this place to anyone. There's a club next door that was playing great music while I waited for my ride. Never again! read more

Trio is one of the best nightclubs in Charleston. It's huge. Downstairs you can enjoy the live band and grab a drink at the bar, or you can go upstairs and dance the night away. 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. read more

Trio - Chris aka DJ Rehab at Trio - Lounges Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

I cannot tell a lie. I had a blast at Trio a couple weeks ago. They hosted one of the after parties during Fashion Week. I was at every Fashion Week after party this year and aside for the official after party on Saturday, the one at Trio was my favorite. There was a good crowd, good music, and drinks were flowing. Sounds like a recipe for success and it absolutely was that night. Everyone was having a good time which really brought the energy up in the place. This is my second time in after the renovation. The first time was pretty lame and it was shortly after they opened. We ended up leaving after about twenty minutes as we were very unimpressed after all the "hype" of them re-opening. One good experience and one bad leaves me somewhere in the middle. I'll report back later because they can only go up or down from here. read more

I first learned of this location through their conversion from their old POS system to the Digital Dining system we installed there. We spent time there when they were about to open, while they were open and once the last customer left. I personally feel this is the best night club in Charleston, as I no longer 'club', but being from NYC, have been to many. Additionally, working in the F&B industry, I have been to many night life spots, this reinforces my opinion. Bartenders are great-fast-professional and friendly (they always remember my drink, which I like..thanks Tom) It is a bit of a attack on the ears, once you step in to the club, but if you can scurry off to the bar, order and settle in, it is a better option than what happens to some people, that get stuck in the first few steps into the main room. If your looking for a club scene, this is the place to go to. read more

honestly the worst service i've ever received. it was the end of the night bar for us and the bouncers were incredibly rude and even the people there were rude. the bouncers yelled at me to pick up someones cup that i WALKED BY drunk and spilled- which i went and picked up bc I understand that- but I went to go sit at a empty bar seat and was shoved off because the guy sitting next to me was married by a friend? okay? i was going to sit not hit on him. I wouldn't recommend. rude people work here and rude people go here. read more

I've been coming to trio for years and every weekend is another amazing artist! The club itself has many different areas and different atmospheres. Just recently renovated their patio to a beautiful tiki summer spot. Come here before "Club Trio" opens to get some speciality drinks/cocktails in a tropical environment. Check this place out!! You won't regret it read more

To start we paid $600 for a table in not even the popular part of the bar where we also waited longer than bar guests for alcohol. It took 20 minutes for our table to even be served any form of alcohol. We should have known then this "table service" was a joke. We were there for a bachelorette party and not only did not get alcohol worth the table payment (or the time it took to get it) but the night just continues to get worse. The staff does not monitor tables at all, you pay for table service to pour your own drinks, police who is actually in the area, and who's drinking the alcohol. A large wedding party came in and overtook the whole area, spilling drinks on the couch we paid for. Their guests were also allowed to come into our area to the point we had to ask them to leave and inform them our party and alcohol was not part of theirs. Our area was constantly covered in alcohol because of people who were way too drunk being allowed at our table and security not doing their job. So basically if you want to pay $600 to be covered in alcohol and sober by the time you leave being pushed out of your own table you paid for, then this is the place. They automatically tip 18% and we wouldn't have even left 15% considering we did not get any service. read more

Love trio with all my heart, one of the best places to go to get your dance on with all your friends! Great environment and great music!

We had an amazing time at Trio! My girls and I went for my bachelorette party over the weekend and we had the best time! We reserved a table for the night and Kate made sure we had everything we needed the whole night. She was great and even got my sister some flip flops when her heels were killing her from dancing. They made my night so special and I had the best night with my girls. Would definitely recommend for a great bachelorette night! read more

Probably the worst bar/club I've ever been to. Well, been to is a stretch. My friends and I are out of towners and were turned away at the door after waiting in line for over a half hour. The bouncers said we did not have a key so we would not be let in. Flat out refusal to four attractive girls. Absolutely idiotic. Tell us this before we wait in line. We may not come from Southern money but our money is as good as anyone else's. Never experienced anything like this in Vegas, Chicago, even London. If it doesn't work there, it won't work in Charleston. read more

I AM GIVING THIS CLUB 1 MEASLY STAR BC THATS ALL IT DESERVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just picture this: 4 out of towners, looking for a nice time. Smiling, gliding through the streets, taking pictures in front of Palm trees, crossing the streets with caution, giving each other wet willys We heard this place would be playing gucci mane and bobby shmurda, so we walked 388329 blocks to Trio. We were so excited !!!!!!! Finally, it was time to twerk!!! We waited in line for 20 min. We got to the front and the door dudes demanded we have a "key" to enter. Huh???? A key? How the hell can I get my hands on this key if I'm from Atlanta? What The little door man told us we couldn't come inside. We were all looking very nice. 3 blondes and 1 brunette, ranging from 5'3 to 5'6, very nice figures, very straight teeth, very friendly. NO!! STILL CANT GET IN!!! So then we got rejected and left. The end read more

Atmosphere: bro meets club. This is obviously where CofC grads in Charleston come to dance, drink, and get laid. I know this because I am a CofC grad... I have no idea why my fellow peers would chose to go to this shit hole when there are so many other amazing bars in Charleston. Not only was the staff rude to me (especially the ridiculously sort guy with the abnormally huge ego) but the bar is literally giant, dark rooms with no atmosphere. I left my ID at this bar and tried to retrieve it the entire next day. They said they would be open at 8 to get my card but I had dinner reservations at 8:15 so I figured I'd just pick it up after. When I got to trio the short man I referred to earlier told me that he could not open the safe for them to give me my ID. Not only that but he was the biggest asshole ever and acted like the most important man in the world. Having worked in the service industry for years, I have never witnessed a place where employees were allowed to treat their customers so poorly. I will not be returning to this place. I'm sure this review won't do much as this place does the business. However, I hope to visitors of the Holy City, that this review serves as an accurate depiction of this establishment. If you read this long... I salute you. read more

Went to Trio on my 21st it was a great experience. So much fun and bottle girls are amazing!!!

Best Cover Band. Ever. They cover pop really well. I mean, Lady Gaga never sounded so good. THere is a realy great vibe, and everyone dances, so you don't feel akward if you decide to get down. Booze is cheap compared to NYC, but probably moderate for Charleston. We ordered two rounds of shots for 6 people, and two mixed drinks for $50. If I ever return to Charleston, I know where to go! read more

$8 to park, $5 dollars to get in p/p, $42 for 4 drinks (not including tip). I'm originally from Miami so this night was a bargain. Once you step in you are immediately attacked by the loud band. They did play some pretty hip songs, but what they lack in talent they make up in volume. So, we went upstairs. A DJ spins hip hop while the girls grind each other and the guys turn into wallflowers. Seriously, the ratio of guy to girl was nearly 10:1. The crowd ranged from young college kids to older (think mom & dad) I found that the music upstairs wasn't as updated as the cover band downstairs. They have a cove with couches and a pole for girls to let out their inner stripper. It was ok at best. read more

Never will go back and will urge everyone I know to stay away from this place. A few friends and I went to Trio after leaving Stars and Banner. We were celebrating a friends wedding and wanted a good night in town. When we arrived to Trio expecting to show our I.D. and get in... we were turned down by the bouncer at the door. Why? Just like everyone else has said.. "No Membership Key" No Membership Key is code word for we don't like your kind. We watched several people get into the lounge by showing their ID and others get rejected for not having the mysterious Membership Key. They literally hand picked who they wanted in their establishment. read more

I'm somewhere between a 3 and 4 stars on this place. Calhoun is the street of clubs and I will say trio is my favorite outta the ones I've been to. That being said, nothing happens downstairs. The party is upstairs and if you don't have fun dancing, go to upper king bars instead. There's a DJ on the weekends, young crowd just wanting to party and cheap drinks. The past time I did go, there were some older guys that just didn't get the message that we didn't want to dance with them. This is expected of any dance club so can't downgrade trio because of that. Trio is a place to party! read more

Been going to Trio for years! Best late night spot in Charleston. It's got all the different vibes downstairs, outside, and upstairs. Best DJs and Chef Bryce is read more

Best cub in Charleston hands down. The renovation is next to flawless. Bartenders are some of the best in town. The upstairs lighting and visual boards are absolutely insane. If you are in Charleston as a local or just visiting I'd highly recommend visiting this club. Also I forgot to mention..... 2 words..... NUGGET BUCKET!!!!!! #TakeMeToTrio read more

Friendly crowd, nice bar tenders, cool bouncers and security. DJ downstairs won't play music (hip hop) after 2010. Up stairs is better but can easily drop back down to 2002. Not a hip hop club by far but it's fun. *I went on a Sunday night (4th of July wknd). I hear this place has a "key" request. Wasn't needed on a Sunday night and shouldn't be any other night, just being honest. read more

Trio is where you want to be on the weekends in Charleston! They have the friendliest staff, great drinks, and fun djs/live music! Perfect for bachelorette/bachelor parties! read more
