Really wanted to try out an arcade bar and was not disappointed with this one! We had a blast on the pinball machines throughout the night. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun! Definitely would return when I visit SC again.

Wilson is the man, great bartender and very personable. He was always smiling, very attentive, and having a great time with us and other customers. He even introduced me to some cool people sitting a couple seats down. Highly recommend the break for a great sports bar environment!

Went there for the first time to shoot some pool. Bartender was fantastic. He was smiling and had a great personality. Younger peeps that came in to eat and play darts were a little rude to take over our table that our drinks and phones were on.

We came here primarily for the pinball, but have to say it's just overall an awesome place. If you're into pinball, it has one of the best collections I've seen outside of NYC, and almost all are premiums and very well maintained. Incredibly reasonable prices, a lot of space, ability to be part of or away from a crowd, a variety of games, and more TVs than you can shake a stick at. The bartender Wilson is also top notch, and incredible welcoming and friendly. Incredibly well thought out place. Don't be fooled by the strip mall type store front. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Charleston! Show less

Great local place. They were hosting a pinball tournament when we arrived!! How cool is that! Plenty of pinball, skee ball air hockey and basketball games, plus 4 pool tables and darts! Music, chill crowd, good drinks, decent prices. Plenty of parking available as well. Definitely recommend!

I went to my hometown of James Island, SC and stopped into a bar for a drink and was blown away by the(lack of) service received my 22 minutes as a guest in this place of business. On my way in, I was (attempted) to be carded by someone that did not work at the establishment while the employed security did not address this person. Soon after, I sat at the bar that had 14 guests, including myself (I had time to count), for 13-19 minutes and was never acknowledged or offered a beverage (or anything for that matter). I made eye contact with two separate bartenders and was never even spoken to. If I were the owner of this establishment, I would be seeking alternate employees, as the current bartenders are not interested in serving the customers SITTING AT THE BAR. There were four bartenders with 14 guests, and I was NEVER acknowledged as a paying customer. As a bar/lounge owner and former bartender in a larger city, I was/am appalled; And honestly, whoever owns or runs this establishment, should be too. I never write reviews but tonight, it was a must. Wow. To whomever owns The Break on Folly Road, you would have a much larger ROI if you had the right people on your team. These people do not care about the success of your business. I would certainly reconsider my staff if I were you. Show less

I will start by saying that this is not my normal digs. Bartender busy but very attentive and pleasant. Standard sports bar atmosphere but good layout. Big bar. The wings were okay, a little dry. Good large basket of fries.

Well Alley or Kelley not sure was the bar tender horrible customer service I have never experienced anything like this in my life. When does a bartender pour chaser(red Bull) and liquor at the same time and get mad when I simply said it’s to much Red Bull. I asked for her manger Kayla (the one in the black shirt) Alley then says to her I hate those people. Her manager laughed and she said oh she wants you. She finally came her excuse was we are about to close and we hate all customers at that time and walks off. Meanwhile I have horrible drinks and horrible customer service on my very first experience at this bar never again and I will post on all platforms. Update she then comes back to tell me you need to leave your being rude I asked how she said it’s the end of the night and your complaining about our service. So I guess because they had a long night it justifies the rudeness very unacceptable. I am not done with them. If I am at work no matter how tired I am it does not give me the ok to be rude to customers especially when you know your wrong chaser and liquor does not get poured at the same time. Show less

Lots of pinball options here and they are well taken care of. Very cool collection of games. We visited on a Sunday night so the atmosphere was more laid back. The pinball machines are $1 per game for 3 balls.

Pinball, Air Hockey, Skeeball, Hoops, Darts, Pool, and dozens of TVs. This place has it all! The atmosphere was the best bar we have been to in a long time, everybody was very polite and minded themselves. Food and drinks were all great, and the bartenders were very nice and quick!

I had the Philly sandwich w tots. Was a good sandwich and tots were crispy without being greasy. A row of pinball games and other games to play was fun! Lots of TVs to watch games on!! I heard it's a BUFFALO BILLS bar!! So, cool to be away from home (Erie, PA) but with fellow fans!
