Final Four in Charleston SC - Bar Recommendations

Submitted by JimHarbaughForPres on March 30th, 2018 at 7:57 AM

I'll be in SC for the game - hoping someone can suggest an establishment to watch with fellow Wolverines. I've looked online and found two recommendations - one from an old Reddit post which claims the Carolina Ale House downtown, and a Facebook group claiming Southern Roots BBQ in West Ashley. After looking at Google photos from inside both bars, I have yet to see a block M anywhere. Hoping someone from the MGoCommunity can help find the ideal viewing location. Go Blue!

The 9th Avenue Ale House. I was in Charleston about a year ago, and met up with some fellow Wolverine fans and it was a blast. Good beer (but, what beer isn't good?) and the food is great!

I hope you see what I did there. The guy is probably googling the 9th Avenue Ale House--but it doesn't exist! I made it up!

Mac’s Place was a big ten/Midwest bar in Charleston. I believe the owner was from Chicago.

I'm sure it's still going strong. Great place. I get to Charleston once or twice a year and always go to Mac's to watch Michigan if they're playing. I'd get there early ... place could get really packed.

Went to Charleston in July for a wedding at the Citadal and all I can say is holy smokes humidity.. I couldnt stop sweating and the bar that we went to had all windows removed. Its an OK town, if you like old Plantation homes, which I do not. Fort Sumter is cool and I would recommend checking it out, but thats about it...

And Oster shooters are gross

It used to be at Mad River Bar and Grille. I remember watching the 2011 UM-Nebraska football game there. It was a great time! But the bar changed ownership and is called 5Church (the building is a converted church). I don’t know if they still show UM games. I doubt it.

It is the final four. Every bar with tvs will show the games. Look for the people wearing Maize and Blue. You're welcome.

Actually, when I think back through the times I've not been home during the Final Four, I can't rememeber - at least inside the US - not being able to find a place to catch at least part of the action. Yeah, if you want to watch it around other Michigan fans / alums, that might not be possible everywhere, but for purposes of just watching the games, I would think it is an open field.

While in Charleston you have to have a dinner at The Ordinary, one of the best meals I’ve ever had.

They have really done a great job with park circle. When I was stationed there it was a shady place.

I’m a little late to the party but live in the Charleston area. Southern Roots in Park Circle will be your best bet. The bar itself isn’t a Michigan bar but it will be all blue tomorrow.
