Take a trip back in time at this recently-opened bar in downtown Charleston.

In case you missed it, Frontier Lounge is now open in the former location of Mynt nightclub, which closed back in April. The new dive bar boasts a 1970s-era aesthetic with retro wallpaper, furniture, lighting, and decor ā€” with a country twist.

Grab a beer or a cocktail and enjoy weekly drink specials, events, and live performances by local entertainment like Greg Keys & Co at 135 Calhoun St. šŸ»
