Important Announcement from The Dales

It’s with heavy hearts that we share this news: due to issues surrounding liquor liability insurance, The Dales will be closing after Friday, October 17th, 2025.
We’re open all week, and we would love nothing more than to spend this final stretch with all of you. Let’s make it count:

Tokyo Joe is playing Thursday night
Our Halloween Party is Friday – costumes encouraged!
We also want to take a moment to encourage everyone who cares about the future of local businesses like ours to raise your concerns with your South Carolina state representatives. The current laws and insurance requirements are making it nearly impossible for small, independent venues to survive. Your voice can help create change.

We can’t begin to express our gratitude. It’s been an absolute privilege to meet you, serve this community, and share so many great times and unforgettable nights.
Thank you for the love, support, and memories.
With all our appreciation,
– The Dales Team
