I visited on a Friday night and the place was packed. 70 beers on tap and over 100 bottles. This place has a great selection. There was an upstairs area with pool and 20 or so beers on tap. No food allowed upstairs. Restaurant was downstairs with the rest of the taps and bottles. The pizza is some of the best pizza I’ve had in a long time. Crunch crust and the top wasn’t overcooked. Service was slow. It was Friday and it was busy. So be it. I will be visiting again. This might be my Friday night hangout on Friday nights.

Ambiance is great. It’s always buzzing at Barley’s. Service is good, though there are some days when you’ll be waiting quite a while for your food or check. Beer selection is fantastic. Good value for money. The lunch special is a great deal. One of my favorite places in Greenville to go for good beer and good food.

Good beer and good food, what else do you need? Ohh, you want good entertainment, go upstairs and you’ll find yourself not leaving this place until they kick you out. Pool table, darts, shuffle board, old-school hockey table, foosball, and TVs with whatever game you want on. You want fruity cocktails, well.....don’t read RateBeer ;-) (jk!)

I am a frequent vistor to this taproom. As stated by other reviewers there are a huge number of beers to select from from both upstairs and downstairs. The service at this location is excellent to say the least, as most of the servers/bartenders are extremely knowledgable about all things beer. The food is also EXCELLENT! Thusly why I go at least once every other week if not more. Definitely top-notch...

Best bar for beer lovers in greenville, always an incredible tap selection and a huge amount of bottles as well. Food is great as well.

Best beer selection of any place i have been to. Great pizza, and plenty of other good food as well.

Very good selection and great attention to having a good mix of local and regional brews. Price was on average and service quick.

Roughly 70 taps, with half on one level, and the other half -featuring different beers - on another level. I was quite pleased with the selection. None of the taps were wasted on various iterations of BudMillerCoors fizzy yellow stuff. The food was good. The pizza didn’t wow me, but it wasn’t bad. The black bean hummus was great, and I enjoyed a jerk chicken wrap on a second visit. I found the servers to be friendly and prompt, although not necessarily beer experts. I certainly plan a return visit on my next visit to SC.

This is for sure the best beer bar in town. A great selection of beer on tap and a massive selection of bottles. The often have some more rare choices on tap which is great. The food is pretty bad though. Even the pizza, which they are known for, is ok at best. The one thing I really liked there was the meatballs. Price for food is average and price for beer is pretty good. Overall a great beer bar but if they improved the food it would be out of this world.

visited 7/10/11.

this place seems to be run by derelicts, hippies and general malcontents... but i like it! who’da thunk a bar in the middle of basically nowhere would be packed in the middle of the summer on a sunday afternoon?!... plus 60+ taps!... you kidding me?... great pizza!... great atmosphere upstairs and down!.... i’d be here every day if i lived close. this stupid pizza shop makes every ’beer bar’ in phx look amateur.

my only complaint is the crazy expensive bottle reserve list.
