Son of a Gun

This is one of my favorite bars in town. The bartenders are fantastic, the atmosphere is fun and cozy, and there’s a real sense of community every time you walk in. The owners are active and involved, which makes guests feel genuinely valued and welcomed. And they always keep my favorite scotch stocked!

Best bar in Columbia. Staff is stellar and friendly and the drinks are delicious. Perfect for a quick beer or an elegant cocktail. Ambiance is warm and cozy — especially during the holidays! I recommend to everyone.

Son of a Gun is one of the most unique bars in the district! The atmosphere is fantastic, the staff are incredibly friendly, and the drinks are top-notch. It’s absolutely a must-visit.

Absolutely amazing bar, highly recommend the black cat martini. Also the owner Gretta was a delight to spend time with. It has a cozy retro vibe that feels natural.

Locally owned. Classy joint for a night out with friends or just a quick drink! Staff and ownership are top notch. Love this place! 10/10

This has to be one of my favorite bars in Columbia! The bartenders are amazing and really take the time to get to know you and your group! They have some of the most unique and delicious cocktails and you can really see that they have taken their time coming up with said cocktails. Would recommend this place for any individual or group because they truly have something for everyone!

Was handed a drink from the bar looking like this. Didn’t even take a drink yet. I paid $11.00 for this on a Friday night… enough said. Will never go back.

I had a very disappointing experience at this bar. The service was terrible—if you're not personal friends with the bartender, you won't be acknowledged. Instead of taking orders, the bartender spent most of the time chatting with his friends, making it feel very unwelcoming to newcomers. I wouldn’t recommend coming unless the two ladies are working, as they seem to be the only ones offering good service.

Now this is a cocktail bar. They did have a great list of beer, but this was a stunning cocktail bar. They had a great list of drinks with almost all the types of liquor and then a seasonal menu that was out of this world. I ordered the Slayyyyy Ride and was not disappointed. The bartenders are very talented and can make a great drink.

Was super cute! Small but lively, staff was great. Clean!! Cute little spot to get a drink before we went to a concert.

New cocktail place in town is 100% worth checking out. Walking in, you transport to a super hip bar that you'd expect in a big city. The design of the small space is perfectly fitting to its neighboring businesses as well. Its owned by 2 sisters, so happy to support the gals! Service was speedy and friendly. :)

Super cute new bar in town, very trendy and hip. We were excited to see there was a new bar opening up, and we came in for date night on a weekend. The place was pretty busy, the bar seating was full. Bartenders were very friendly. We ordered 2 cocktails off the menu. Spicy margarita cocktail (Hotter in Hell) was the perfect amount of spice, just a bit juice forward and pretty sweet. Don't Be a Prick is a prickly pear inspired drink; the lemon and pear complemented each other well. Solid drink overall. Love the vibes here, and there is a cute seating area in the back which was perfect. Definitely will be back!

This place is total vibes, great spot for chill drinks or to stop in on a walk home. You can never go wrong with their "Black Cat" espresso martini!!

Love love this bar. They have created such a fun environment. The drink are amazing as well as the service. If you haven't been here you are missing out!

The key to a good upscale neighborhood bar (Greta & Ava's goal) is the vibe. This place kills it. Having visited there a couple times, and being one of the newest places downtown, they are killing it in every respect. Efficient & attentive service, I have yet to see someone standing waiting for their cocktail. The atmosphere is elite. The eclectic cocktail menu is reminiscent of a high end speakeasy. You need to come for the experience and you will definitely be returning. I am pretty sure it will be your new go to spot!

Unique drink menu, full selection, fair prices, attentive service and great vibes. Great spot to stop in and stay awhile!

Bartenders are rude af. The vibes are so good but damnnnn the bartenders aka the owners are so fucking rude and disorganized. Will not be back

LOVE this place so much! If you want a chill place to hangout with your friends and great service, you definitely will want to check this place out!

Friendly bartenders and really good cocktails. Haven't had one I didn't like yet. Super good place to chill out and the setup makes it easy to meet new people

I visited Son of a Gun for the first time last night and I was blown away! The atmosphere reminds me of some of my favorite spots in NYC, and this type of bar experience is exactly what Columbia needed. Not only are the owners STUNNING, they provide immaculate service and excellent cocktails!

great vibes and cocktails, amazing to see women owned bar thriving in this city and they bartend which it makes it even doper. love to see it!
