Came here to see Tokyo Joe perform. Very cool interior. Large bar area provides good service. We split the Philly Cheesesteak in a wrap instead of the bun. Outstanding! Fyi, don't waste your time on the cole slaw, very dry and no flavor. Cold bottle Yuenglings.

We visited Tin Roof on a Saturday night and had an absolute blast! They had a live band, and the music was great. I loved the atmosphere. It’s also nice that it’s easy to walk to you if you’re staying downtown. Next time I’m back in Columbia I will for sure visit again!

This is a really cool music venue/restaurant! The service is excellent! The employees are very inviting and friendly. The venue is always holding special events and they supply a variety of musical guests. The venue is in the heart of Columbia. The atmosphere is very cool, especially the stage and lighting in the venue. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

If you eat fried pickles, please get theirs.They're the best I've ever had in my life! The chicken wings are big. I would recommend you get them cooked well done.

Great bar and so neat to see all the decor and know they have musicians that became focus after they played here. They have had many musicians just starting out here and have gone on to do more. The food is great and they have great prices. I wish I lived closer. This is a great venue!

Shrimp quesadilla was awesome, bartenders were quick and helpful. Sound was muffled but could have just been the mix that night.
