We are in Charleston for first time. This is a great place. Very yummy duck confit tacos, and whatever IPA I was drinking was top notch. The bartender (I am terrible remembering names, but he would wade unto alligator infested ponds wearing swim trunks to help his uncle do surveying) served a shot of "cold brew" that was so caffeinated it changed my life - I may never sleep again.

Absolutely enjoyed the atmosphere as well as personal attention from the staff. Was only able to hang out for a couple libations and then off to reservations previously made elsewhere but we are so looking forward to going back to Bar Mash for the full dining experience!

Checked out this bar tucked away in the old cigar factory with my friend and we had a marvelous time. Cocktails were yummy, food was priced well and had great portions. Went on a Monday and there was a band jamming, not sure if music is there on other days. Will definitely be returning to try the food specials on diff days. Also, Victor the bartender was so sweet & took real good care of us!! Thank you, Victor 🫶🏾
