The Bounty Bar

Good food and good vibes. Everyone was nice. The atmosphere is fun. Dog friendly inside and even outside. They even have a menu for the pups and my girl got to enjoy a beef patty! Also, it was order at the bar when we went as well

Bounty Bar Folly beach. Wow! Good food very generous portions. Great burgers. Chicken tenders big 3 piece with fries. You can't it all of it. Nachos delicious and 4 folks will be full! And probably some left over. Staff is friendly courteous and attentive. Enjoy

Tried to go to another place for dinner around 9:30p and was redirected here by the staff at Tides. Damn happy I listened. I ordered the shrimp po boy & it was so good that I’m going to grab one before I return home. Katie was my bartender and she remembered my name after my first order. Great service. Now, the music - I didn’t have any expectations and I was overly impressed with the sound system and the live band. It was Monday, June 29, so sorry I didn’t get the name, but they had me head bobbin and deep brow frowning in the best way. Such a great experience and I’ll be back every trip now. The prices are reasonable. My spend reflected two people eating and drinking with one of us drinking more than the other.

Today my friends and i were exhausted after a very long day at the beach. The night was relatively young and we all agreed that it was time for dinner. To our surprise on what was once a wonderful Tuesday The Washout was closed so we decided to stop by The Bounty Bar because we figured it would have been a nice dinner to go to as an alternative. We got sat down and we wrote a list of the food that we were going to get and had the Bartender send our order to the back. At the time the bar was not busy as there was about 4-5 tables some with and without food and a couple people sitting at the bar which one of them being a worker! We waited for 30 minutes with zero check ups and after 50 minutes of waiting with just the drinks we got and no refills we finally see the table in front of us get their food. After an hour and thirty minutes we finally got our food after waiting on a Tuesday night. As we were getting our food my friend asked the waiter about his nachos that he ordered, lo and behold they forgot to put in his nachos after waiting all night for food so he had to pick off of our plates instead of getting his own meal. The wings, philly, fries and pulled pork were all equally mediocre in their own ways. We will say that the blackened chicken was very good though, compliments to the chefs! Normally i don’t write reviews on a bad experience at a restaurant but this one in particular was excruciatingly long, disappointing and unacceptable. There are several things that can be fixed to make the experience better but i guess they will see in due time. We will never be coming back here unless we have a few hours to kill and we want to starve. Would not recommend 2/10.

Pam and I had just taken a one-hour walk on Folly Beach where the gods had conspired with gentle breezes, a bright blue sky, and friendly folks to convince us that there was no way it could possibly get any better. But once off the beach and spotting a new Folly establishment called The Bounty Bar, we were to find out how wrong we were to set our expectations so low. The front door beckoned us to come on in. As I opened the door, the first thing that hit me was a bombardment of colorful lights, tastefully put in a context of a flat black background. It took a bit for my pupils to adjust from being out in the bright sun, but as they did I immediately felt the friendliness and informality of this “everyone-knows-your-name” place. I have to say I was impressed that an establishment that had just opened recently seemed to be running like a well-oiled machine. We ordered ice tea, the fried fish sandwich, the gator po' boy, some fries, and a salad which was brought to us on the front porch section where we could take in the “passing parade” of humanity enjoying their visit to this funky beach town. Both the fried fish and gator were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The fries were top-notch and the delicious ice tea hit the spot. I guess the only change that I might have made was to have ordered one of their many choices of beer or the renowned frozen rum punch to more closely complement the delicious lunch we had. That will have to happen next time. :) Thank you, Bounty Bar. We will be returning! Jim

Food was excellent and the beer was cold! The nacho appetizer was great! Only recommendation I would have - if you don't like lime juice, or limes, ask for it off the platter. Overall, it's pretty tasty! The Philly cheesesteak was pretty good, but I would like to see it in a slightly larger roll so the fillings don't spill out. Overall, I recommend it! The grilled chicken sandwich is always a safe bet, as are the burgers. The special at the time of visiting was the fried porkchop sammich. If it is the special of the day, it was also highly recommended. If you are here for live music and beer, grab yourself some good grub and enjoy the weather! Seating out front as well as around back - order at the bar!

Absolutely love this place! We got the Philly cheesesteak and parmesan mashed potato bites! One of the best Philly cheesesteaks I have honestly ever had!

Decent prices, awesome atmosphere, great food, great service!!!! Came in to try this place out. Not only are the frozen drinks good. But you are definitely getting your moneys worth. Started with the loaded fries you get a whole plate of fries and everything. My boyfriend got the chicken tender plate and oh buddy so much food so juicy and made in house. I got the philly cheese steak the steak was so juicy and tender. Definitely recommend.

Not your average bar.... Fantastic service, great vibe, terrific music, perfect margaritas, and WAY better than average bar food. Definitely recommend!

Looking for a divey bar on Folly? Look no further! The bounty bar has plenty of seating, food options, and occasionally will have live music. I was able to stop by the bar on the Fourth of July for a quick bite. They had a special menu deal- I got a burger with all the toppings( lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and cheese) and a side of Mac n cheese ( the casserole type). I devoured my meal all while drinking a pineapple high noon. The staff are super friendly and attentive. If you order food, they deliver to your table which was a nice touch!

Get the frozen drink trio for $14! Great deal and all three drinks were delish. Great spot to people watch. Will definitely be back!

We had a really good time here! We came for my friend's bachelorette party. She wanted a fun beach weekend, and The Bounty Bar played a role in making that happen. We came later in the evening and it was really lively. There was a live band that would play, and they had a great stage presence. One of them even had an electric clarinet, I had never seen that before. It was darkly lit, providing for an intimate atmosphere. I think one of my friends got some food. It was nothing to write home about, but hits the spot perfectly on a night out. Overall it was a fun time! Check it out when at Folly Beach.

Great food, atmosphere and bartenders! The bands that play here every weekend are awesome! Shout out to Patryk! He's amazing Takes great care of us every time! Tonight we had the weekly special which was Three cheese Grit Cakes topped with a over easy egg, green onions and a roasted garlic aioli Also had the Cauliflower & Cheddar soup! Delicious!

I was in Charleston for a weekend trip but we stopped in Folly Beach on the way in for dinner. We came in quite late, so Bounty bar was a recommendation from a local for late night bites! Street parking is pretty easy to find in Folly and Bounty is a relatively big bar. Inside, it's a little divey, but that's any Folly Beach bar and we were excited to see they had live music! We placed orders at the bar and were able to find a booth. The servers came out with food quickly and I was surprised by the quality of food for a dive bar! My shrimp in my Po boy were fried so good and the fries were hands down the best part!! They were shoestring and perfectly salted. Overall, I liked the vibes of Bounty Bar and the food!

I love this place on Folly! Such a great option to pop into... whether just for a drink, a snack, or full blown meal. We personally love sitting outside in the front, as they have some comfy chairs and couches and you can people watch. They also have misting fans to keep you cool enough on hot days. It's a dark and sort of moody interior... so when you walk back outside, don't forget you're at the beach! :) As for the food, we have had mostly great experiences here. The menu is great, but lacks consistency in quality at times. 9 times out of 10, it shouldn't be an issue. This most recent time we got the loaded fries, but unfortunately the fries weren't super cooked. Otherwise, the service is always great and you're bound to have a good time!

This folly beach spot is the newer venture from the folks over at Royal American which is one of my all time favorites. I stopped in randomly so there wasn't any live music and I didn't try the food as we were just bouncing around Folly. I can say I liked the setup with a big front bar and lots of seating. Also checked out the patio with a handful of picnic tables too. The bathrooms were full of flash tattoo art and they had a cool setup where each gender neutral stall was private and a shared bank of sinks outside. There are indicator lights to tell you which ones are occupied. The bartender was funny and welcoming... Definitely a place I want to go back to.

My group ended up here for lunch since everywhere immediately nearby had lengthy wait-times. This place was seat-your-self and order only at the bar, which was different. So that's what we did. They definitely seemed understaffed so service was slow, but the bartender was absolutely killing it. The decor was cool to look at. Grilled chicken sandwich would've been okay had there not been a giant tendon throughout the whole chicken breast. Bland (frozen) fries, kind of McDonaldsy vibe. Frozen flight drinks were SO SWEET so unless youre a basic chick that only drinks sugary drinks, skip these.

First of all this cute little bar is tucked in between the buildings, and feels like the perfect little tropical bar, completely shady and lots of fans, so yay for that. Got their homemade Seltzer on tap, it was excellent! And then we ordered the wings, their "Magic Wings", double fried and seasoned with "Magic Dust." Possibly the best wings I've ever eaten. EVER. Outrageously good!! Bartender was friendly, food service was super fast, and did I mention the seasoning on those wings?!

The patty melt was awesome!! Fish and chips were great as well. Service was exceptional

First time here since Taco Boy moved. Service was great, beer was cold. Fish and Chips was delicious, fish was fantastic with a thin crispy coating. I think homemade chips in house would be better but these were hot, salty and plentiful so no complaints!

Popped in to Bounty Bar after a walk on the beach for a margarita - best margarita I've had in a good long while and reasonably priced. Ended up staying to try the Patty Melt - 2 thumbs up! Perfect little dive bar near Folly

Went here 6 months ago and was just OK, but went a few times last month and had a better time. Food has definitely improved and the drinks are still good (the Painkiller is great and seems like is the recipe from the old Surf Bar). Nice to sit outside and relax and they have a little something for everyone. Note that you order both food and drinks from the bar and they'll bring the food to you.

We have been to Folly Beach 7 of the last 10 years. Initially we were saddened to see the Irish Pub/Restaurant changed to another business. The Bounty Bar makes u feel like friends and family. The FOOD was the best on Folly Beach. 3 full breasts for amazing breaded chicken tenders. French Onion soup in a crock and melted cheese perfection. Note I am. French Onion soup snob who criticizes places in Ireland if they do not measure up. Also the chicken blackened salad had the perfect tenderness. This came out last and the staff apologized BUT we quickly realized that the tender blackened chicken was perfect to melt in our mouths. WOW. We have 2 more in huts left on this trip and both dinners will be at THE Bounty Bar & AMAZING STAFF AND FOOD. Finally while we were there there were families and kids of all ages. Very family friendly.

What a cool spot and best nachos i've had in my life! Good drinks, great playlist! can't wait to go back next time we are on the be

I was really excited about this spot when I heard it was coming to Folly. With it being The Royal American's sister restaurant, there are high expectations for Charleston Locals and so far, it did not disappoint. Very cool pirate theme and all of the staff is friendly and seem genuinely happy to be there. We got the "famous patty melt," a Philly cheese steak, and fries to split between 2 people. The fries were well cooked and crispy. The patty melt was as good as they claimed. The Philly cheese steak was good, but a little salty. We went during the first week, so I'm sure they will master their recipes in no time. Be sure to get one of the frozen drinks! 22oz for $10! You can't beat it!

Only had some cocktails but those were great. The bartenders were so attentive and one of them even remembered our names the next night! They had a great DJ on Thursday and some local bands too which made for a nice mix of local and vacationing people!

Every time I come here, I feel at home. The food is great and service is even better. #1 spot I recommend at my job to guests that are visiting.

The food was awesome, I highly suggest the Loaded fries, it can feed 2-3 people, and it's super delicious. The drinks were also good, I would of done full 5 stars but I'm not too familiar with the "order at the bar" type of place, nonetheless, service was rapid and good

Yummmmm!! My husband and I had lunch at the bounty bar today. We sat up at the bar and had great service from Katie. We started with a cocktail. He had a classic daiquiri and I had a dark and stormy. Both were just as they should be. To eat he had the bacon egg and cheese biscuit, and I had the patty melt with the addition of dukes mayo. The Texas toast on the patty melt was perfectly grilled, buttery and crispy. The patty was nice and thin, The onions were well grilled. And the cheese was nice and melty. I had only planned to eat half but it was so good I ate the whole thing! My husband's bacon egg and cheese biscuit was also delicious. Neither sandwich came with a side so we shared some fries. One order was more than the two of us could finish. The sandwiches did come with some yummy pickle slices. Their house made "fire and ice" pickles, a cross between a dill and bread & butter. They were some of the best pickles I've ever had!

Great food! We got the French onion soup chicken tenders and caesar salad and everything was delicious. Much better than other area restaurants.

Drinks were okay. Very very dark in here. Staff was so friendly. Definitely a fun place. Lots of room. Fun atmosphere.

Amanda was a great bar tender very nice and very fast. We just got an the Brussel sprout appetizer and they were crispy and delicious. Live music starts next Saturday and I can't wait to be back.

Moved away from Chicago nearly 2yrs ago...finally found a dive bar I can call home. This place is a gem to find out in Charleston plus it's near a beach..truly couldn't ask for anything more. From the cold beers & good tunes. Keep it amazing bounty. Don't change. 10/10 Food ALSO

Calling all Seafaring Misfits and Sirens! Cool bar close to the beach with decent food and drinks. Stopped by after a day at the beach. We ordered food and drinks from the bar and sat out on the front patio. We ordered the frozen flight with consisted of a vodka, rum, and bourbon drinks. The rum was delicious. The food came out quickly and was pretty good. The coconut shrimp was delicious! The wings were tiny, likely from a pigeon, but had good flavor. Brussel sprouts were oily and lacked flavor. We didn't order any entrees, but the sandwiches looked good. Would def go back next time I'm on folly to check out more of the menu and enjoy the cool atmosphere and tasty drinks. The staff was great and couldn't tell it just opened a couple days prior

Outstanding food. Huge portions! Very personable wait staff. Quick serivce. So thankful we decided to pop in!

Came here 3 nights in a row on vacation and had a great time. Drinks were fairly priced, bartenders + servers were friendly, food was delicious. Not gourmet, but hits the spot for bar food. I'd recommend the loaded fries and patty melt w jalapeños. Thanks Bounty!

So many wait staff out at Folly are rude. Like it's a bother to wait on people or answer questions when it is their literal job. We've been a few times - the first time, the service was nice. We came back. Last night we went and the guy behind the bar- dark hair pulled back with some facial hair- just unnecessarily rude. My husband asked if servers come to the table because he was unsure and the guy said "It's a bar. You order here." Like it's so obvious because the name Bounty Bar but lots of bars have cocktail servers that also deliver food. I've worked at places where bar tenders wait on tables near the bar. You can just politely say "No sir. You order at the bar here". That would be sufficient. Don't work at a bar if you don't feel like dealing with people.

Perfect spot for lunch after the beach or to catch some local live music at night - the frozen marg and buffalo cauliflower were both delicious and the veggie melt was insane - vegetarian's dream!

So I'm a Folly resident and am so disappointed in this place. I waited to post a review, hoping you would work your kinks out after a few months. The last thing anyone wants to do is go stand in line at a bar. You have fish on the menu but it's never available. The drinks are horrible and there's always 4 or 5 people standing around behind the bar not doing anything. Get your act together, wiki had outstanding food & drinks and they didn't make it, you don't even have that going for you.

Such a great spot to finish off a day on Folly! We were greeted by a fun and efficient server who made our experience top notch. The drinks were ice cold and the apps we tried were tasty and filling. The Bounty Bar is comfortable and truly fits the Folly Beach vibe. If you're a local or visiting, be sure to get the full Folly experience and dive into the Bounty Bar!

We love the Bounty Bar! The food is elevated bar food! The chef takes great care to create absolutely delicious combinations. We love seeing what he will come up with next! The staff are extremely kind and attentive, especially the manager! She is simply delightful! We can't wait for our next visit! If you want great food and a true "Folly" experience for a great price head to the Bounty Bar! You will love the ambiance.

Great friendly atmosphere .. Bartenders super friendly .. have had live music last two nights ,. Haven't eaten there but we've been in a couple nights and each time it's been a great atmosphere.

I'm not sure how there are fabulous reviews..well actually there are only 4, I should have known by that! The good service & attitudes don't exist here .. I was looked at like I have 3 heads after asking a girl bussing a table how to order(we were sitting there for 20min). We find out ordering is done at the bar, that there is NO service! We decide to order, what the reviews are raving about, ""THE FISH SANDWICH"" aNd I was rudely told by the woman at the bar that they ran out..mind you it's only 3pm on a Friday, not even dinner yet, and she then walks away! Okay, so I send the hubby in hoping he doesn't get attitude like I did & he gets a gentleman who helps him. He orders 3 beers & we decided just to do an appetizer of loaded fries. The guy then tells my husband to take the number he handed to him, and to go have a seat. Minutes later the guy comes to our table and made the biggest deal, telling us we are to wait at the bar for drinks and the food will come but not the drinks. It was not needed for the presentation, he could have politely told us at the bar! After all we don't work at the bar & we're vacationing, so we were not aware of the lack of service!! We won't be back..too many other places to try!!

Wow! Folly's Bounty Bar is amazing with a chill environment, friendly staff and incredibile food. If you are on The Edge of America, make sure you stop in, you will be glad you did.

My husband and I try to go here every time we visit Folly! The Bounty Bar has a relaxed, cool atmosphere. The staff has always been on point and fun to talk to! We love to get the mozzarella sticks and nachos. They sometimes have specials that are fun to try too! Can't wait to go back next time we're in town!

This was our second visit. The fish and chips were tasty, and the chicken sandwich great. Kayla, our server was pleasant, helpful, and efficient. Definitely will be returning..

Popped in for a drink on a little tour of Folly Beach, mid afternoon. Nice place...def could see it being a hot spot for the evening crowd! Bathrooms are unique, stalls for business and then communal hand wash station! Nice veranda out front too

What a fun place! After a little too much sun and not enough food, cold beers with a cool vibe was just what we needed. And we found it, but better! Frozen punches, perfectly proportioned nachos (it's kindof a thing) and a crispy fried fish sandwich hit the spot. The staff was amazing and the music was great. It was such a perfect way to wind down the day and start our next day too!

The food was extremely subpar. Not only did it not taste good, but I got food poisoning the next morning. The service was also poor, the servers were rude and dismissive. Under no circumstances would I recommend going to the bounty bar. You would be better off at Chico Feo or Tacoboy.

The perfect addition to Folly! My husband and I shared the fried fish sandwich and the gator po' boy. The fish was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and sooo flavorful! The nuggets of juicy gator were wonderful. We sat outside on the front porch enjoying the cool ocean breeze while we people-watched. A delightful afternoon!

Excellent food!! Big pile of french fries and humungous burger. Try the green Vodka punch signature punch

We stopped here a few times during our trip and it was fantastic! The food was delicious, highly suggest the patty melt! The drinks were great, especially the frozen ones that came in a cute cup you could take. Everyone was super friendly and polite. The patio was my favorite part. Definitely a fun environment. Would go again!
