Palmetto Ale House

I recently moved from Boston to a new housing development off of highway 521 in South Carolina.  One of the first things that caught my eye was a tiki style torch burning outside of this gas station turned bar.  After unpacking for a few days it was time to check out this local dive.

The first thing that caught my eye was the line of convenience store style refrigerator doors behind the bar.  There is a great variety of beer, mostly on the “low end.”  Everything from Steel Reserve malt liquor and Natural Ice to Heineken.  As far as liquor goes, there is a small collection of vodka, whiskey, and tequila.  Most liquor is mid grade with Patrón Tequila being the highest end liquor on the shelf.  Along with beer and liquor, the ale house also has a full menu of food with everything from fried alligator tale and garbage nachos to burgers and hot wings.  The food prices are very good, with specials hitting the $5 range.  The bar has happy hour daily from 4pm to 7pm and a packed house on Thursday and Saturday nights for karaoke.  There are several HD televisions on the wall, a Touch Tune juke box, coin-op pool table, two video games, a Megatouch, and an ATM.  All in all this is a great bar with friendly people and is worth a visit.  They accept all major credit cards and of course cash.
