What locals are saying
Tru Blues is a genuine Mt. Pleasant institution — one of the area's oldest bars — whose wings earned top honors in the Post & Courier's Wing War bracket, with locals singling out the Terri-Hot and Ranch Hot flavors as standouts. The bar draws regulars for live music, karaoke, sports on TV, and a recently expanded 10-tap draft system, giving it a reliably lively neighborhood feel. The main knock from reviewers is that non-wing menu items can be hit or miss, and service occasionally stumbles during busy stretches.
