The Bear's Den

So goood! Friendly staff! Food was great. I had the chili and club sandwich. Spouse had smash burger and it was fantastic!!!!!

My first time trying food from the Bear's Den. I had their club sandwich with plain ruffle chips and dill pickle spear. It was very good, large and filling. No real negative about this classic sandwich except might have been tad better with some thinly sliced onion and some vinegar drizzled on it. But I would DEFINITELY eat this sandwich again and highly recommend trying this joint out.

Great Charleston eatery and watering hole. This includes Charleston's favorite bartender on Monday-Wednesday. Everyone loves Kelly. Plenty of good food both for lunch and dinner.

By far the best little bar in Charleston. It's like Cheers but nicer. The bartenders know your drink and make it appear before you know your empty. The atmosphere is friendly and the service is fast and courteous. Everything on the menu is excellent, but the chili and the buffalo chicken wrap is by far my favorite

Located in an historic building, this is a little hidden gem. Perfect for unwinding by yourself after work or to hang with friends. Great people. Pleasant atmosphere. Everyone is friendly. Food and drinks are great. I LOVE their Reuben! They deliver for lunch and have Happy Hour.

Busy little lunch spot in a historic building. The baked steak is the bomb. They have great daily specials and I like they have more southern country cooking specials around here. Owner & staff are very friendly. Great little spot.

Do not eat here.I am a student of the University and have eaten the Bear's Den food for over three years. The food has only gotten worse over time and the company, Sodexo, that runs it has zero intention of ever improving. This is a common problem brought up in student government, but because freshmen and sophomores are forced to have meal plans, Sodexo has no incentive to fix any issues.Do not eat here or support the Bear's Den.

I ordered for the first time from here. The reviews were good for the club sandwich and chili. I ordered both. The club sandwich was ok, but the chili tasted like chili you put on hot dogs with the same consistency. I could not eat it. The next order was a plain cheeseburger. Well, it looked good but as soon as they took a bite it was raw. That was not eaten either. We got a pasta salad and potato salad for sides. Pasta was good but potato was bland. Very disappointed in the order but never know unless you try. Do not think I will order from here again

Went with family mid-day, Wednesday. Mostly empty yet took forever to order and get food. Grilled cheese mostly bread, already sold out of their special, onion rings practically onion-less, son said Arby's Ruben was better, and fries weren't fully cooked. When we shared feedback with server, all we got was a lukewarm apology. Won't be back.

Bears Dens always been good to me. It's easy access from my state office in downtown Charleston. Great wings, great Chili and if you need a go to sandwich get the Cajun Turkey wrap. The fries are great but the chips are too. They have a great fish sandwich and burgers. Nice big back room for gatherings like fantasy football picking. Amazing little spot. Great atmosphere.
