Gene's Haufbrau - Charleston

We arrived around 11 PM, and the male bartender had his back turned to the customers for a good five minutes. The female bartender noticed my fiancé and me waiting, but instead of offering us service, she turned her back to chat with the male bartender. When she finally finished her conversation, she chose to serve the guests closest to her instead of us, despite our having been there first. As a result, it took over ten minutes for us to receive our first drink. Additionally, the game area was in a pretty disgusting state.

This place is so cool, oldest in Charleston, SC. Started with the artichoke dip and pita chips- AMAZING, Crawfish Salad with a sweet jalapeño dressing- I was very nervous about the dressing being hot but it wasn?t hot at all, just gave it a jalapeño flavor. Buffalo Ranch salad. And had really cool artwork alongside the building.

Gene's has been a cherished spot for many years. It has maintained its charm over time without losing its essence. It's a great Charleston bar where you can connect with locals, and it's the perfect place to unwind after dining at one of the nearby restaurants, capping off your evening on a high note.

This was my second visit, and it was just as enjoyable as the first. The prices are reasonable, and they offer darts, foosball, pool, and a few other games. If you're in search of a relaxed atmosphere, this is the place for you. The only downside was that ordering at the bar was a bit confusing, as there was an "order spot" that didn't really serve that purpose. However, it wasn't a major issue, and we still managed to get our drinks!

Best dive bar in town. Sunday brunch huevos rancheros are amazing! House made chili on the chili dogs. The food is all great. Huge beer selection.
