Field House Sports Bar sits on North Poinsett Highway, the main road running through Travelers Rest at the northern edge of the Upstate, which makes it an easy stop coming into town or heading up toward the mountains. Inside it runs loud and lively, with a crowd that mixes younger folks out for the night and locals who have been coming for years, and staff check IDs at the door, so it keeps the feel of a night-out bar rather than a family grill.
There is plenty going on beyond the game on the TVs. Pool tables anchor the room, and the calendar fills out with karaoke, trivia, music bingo, and live bands that turn up on weekends. Visitors mention cold beer and well-made drinks, and the bartenders come up again and again for being friendly and quick to keep a glass full.
It also runs later than most places in town, one of the few spots up this way still going into the early hours on a weekend night, which pulls the later crowd looking for somewhere to land. Pool tournaments are a regular fixture on the calendar, and karaoke nights are what people tend to mention most.
