    Went for lunch with my husband. I ordered the pick 2 combo sandwich and salad and chose the BLT. My husband got the Minter Cheese Burger. I was pretty disappointed with the quality of the food. My BLT's bread was burned on the edges and almost all of my husband's fries were WAY overdone. I can honestly say I've never had overcooked fries before. My husband's burger was good. The service was average, but considering there were only 4 tables that were filled at the time, it could have been better. There's nothing about this place that makes me really want to go back for the food. it may be better for an entertainment/evening venue than lunch.

    The staff were fun. I had the Shepherd's Pie and was quite disappointed. It was a very small dish for the price and had very little meat in it. It was almost all mashed potatoes. Will not order that again! Gives me some concern that they are cutting corners on their food. I will revisit but with a cautious eye.

    "Looks like a good place to grab a burger," he said as pangs of hunger began their familiar creep into his growling stomach. "We always pass by it in downtown Greer; we should try it out." His wife ambivalently agreed, obviously exasperated that their toddler now refused to sit politely for the beautiful Saturday stroller ride that had been so peaceful up until now. "Yeah, let's go ahead and get this cranky kid some lunch," she muttered with a sigh. He held the door for the family to squeeze through the old storefront into The Mason Jar. "Obviously a bar," he thought. "I could dominate some good bar food right now." Instructions to 'seat yourself' were inscribed on the vacant hostess station, so he wasted no time leading his family to a table. The restaurant was dimly lit, even at high noon, so he made his way toward the glass-paneled storefront area in search of a bright window seat. Situating themselves around a table, he and his wife began to cast longing glances toward the kitchen in hopes of locking eyes with a member of the wait staff and securing quick service. It took a few minutes, but eventually they spotted a waitress, and after a few more minutes, she dropped by with a smile and some menus. They didn't question the delay, despite there only being 5 other customers in the building - they were more than happy to have their drink orders taken and to begin scouring the attractive menu for their fare of choice. Fortunately, there was a great little LEGO kids' table by the front window that held their toddler's attention long enough for them to collaborate over menu choices. "You get the mushroom swiss burger with onion rings, I'll get a patty melt with fries, and we can share them," she pronounced pleasantly. "Isn't it so nice that this table is here for kids? I just wish that weird little oscillating fan and mini vacuum cleaner weren't sitting in the corner up there." She winced at the dingy, appliance-strewn corner and immediately began scheming on potential distraction tactics to employ for when (not if) the novelty of the LEGO table would wear off... The waitress returned promptly with mason jar glasses of water and recorded the lunch order. Then, salivating in expectation while placating the youngster, they waited. And waited. After a good 15 minutes, their waitress returned to gracefully apologize for the brief delay, and brought along a pacification snack. It was a single freshly baked...canned biscuit? Most likely a Laura Lynn brand butter-flavored refrigerated biscuit from one of those cardboard tubes that scares people when its vacuum seal pops open. And just one. "Thank you?" The couple exchanged suspicious eyebrow raises and commented on the peculiarity of the gifted biscuit. After breaking it open and giving it a cursory once-over, the wife finally let the pining toddler gobble it down. "At least its free," she remarked, unable to remove the look of weirded-outness from her countenance. At about the 20 minute mark, a new waitress scurried out of the kitchen with burger plates in hand. Rejoicing and eager to forget the oddities and delays to this point, the couple's eyes sparkled as the big, juicy burgers arrived looking larger than anticipated and quite appetizing in their presentation. They scooped them up and sunk in their teeth, discovering a delightful abundance of... Grease. That juicy look was actually puddled grease sitting on the patty. And not grease in the 'bacon makes everything taste better' sense of the word. These were grease-saturated burgers, inside and out. The husband began wondering whether the chef was using some 50/50 fat-lean beef, deep frying the patties in oil, or perhaps both. "Does yours taste funny?" She slowed her chewing to a crawl and shot a suspicious look at her patty melt. "I think it's just really greasy," he replied. "It's ok flavor, but nothing special - it's just a grease burger." Although the onion rings were well prepared and quite enjoyable, the couple exchanged their all-too-familiar weirdness glances over the fries as well. Oversalted, cold, and stale - the trifecta of bleh in the french fry universe. Disappointment shrouded over the pair as hungrily, quickly, reluctantly, they slogged through their meal knowing their time was short until the toddler would have a full-fledged nap-deprived meltdown. It had to be done. It had to be eaten. But they weren't one bit happy about it. Deflated and exasperated, the husband resolved to relate his experience on Yelp in hope that well-informed foodseekers would beware the superficial street-level magnetism of The Mason Jar. "Perhaps," he mused, "the owners will consider these words and make some much needed changes. Time will tell."

    We hadnt been to mason jar in about 2 years, we don't live close, are there new owners?? Lunch on a Sat, had the kids, service was fair but all else sucked! Food, cleanliness, beer selections, you name it, it lacked, sad to say! I gave a 1 for the wait staff, who although made an error, made it right.

    Do not know about the food. We stopped cause we heard music and wanted a cold beer. Laid back, packed, cold beer, loud country music from the band. Cool place!!

    Last year we were here and it was a fun stop on the way to see friends off at the airport. This year the place went down, the prices up and the drinks were stingy. Walk across the street to the other place that all the locals know is much better, cheaper and better menu.

    Went for a casual Sunday lunch the server immediately came up to us as we were sitting down and said she was the only server working. She had a party of 7 or so a few 2 tops and the four of us , there was a bartender with around 4 people at the bar and what appeared to be a manager or maybe owner who appeared to be walking around looking confused and also tending to her daughters (the bartender..they favored ) crying baby and young child. We ordered our sweet tea which came out warm and about 30 minutes later she finally found her way back over to take our order. Upon getting the food app was chicken nachos maybe half a chicken breast if we were lucky a teeny amount of canned nacho cheese and after asking twice for sour cream and salsa we noticed the to go cups of salsa had spoiled it was all bubbly and nasty. Chicken tenders were tiny and fries were cold had to tell server twice that we needed honey mustard even tho when I placed my order I had requested it. The burger tasted frozen and also as if it had some breading in it even though the menu says 100% ground chuck the chicken sandwich that we ordered did not come with bread and at that point and with so many other issues we just decided to keep our mouths shut!!

    We really tried to like this place and gave it 3 chances thinking maybe we had bad luck. Every time the food was bland, generic and seemed frozen. The fried fish was the tiniest piece of fish I have ever seen and tasted very fishy and greasy - we could not even finish it. Burgers were bland with no flavor and kind of dry. Expensive pricing for the low quality. I would go back for a beer and entertainment on a weekend night, but never again for food.

    My husband and I went here for dinner based on walking by on a previous visit to downtown Greer. The look of the place and the name made us think this was a good place to grab some food and drinks and hang out to watch a band on a Friday night without having to drive to downtown Greenville. When we arrived, there were only a few tables full and we were seated quickly. The server was nice but it took a long time to order, get drinks, and get the food because he seemed to be the only one actually working. The bartender was not helping him at all. The food was not very good. We ordered the pimento cheeseburger and the mushroom Swiss burger. The pimento cheese was terrible and had almost no flavor except for the large shredded cheddar cheese that was not even warm. The mushroom Swiss burger must have been sitting there ready for quite a while because it was lukewarm. The fries were a great concept because they were fresh cut potato fries but they were so greasy that the fries were soggy. Can't really comment on the band because they were set up when we arrived and they never played anything by 9. This place has great potential in a good location but they really missed the mark. If the server had not been so nice and obviously swamped with trying to take care of all the tables himself, we would have complained. We will not be returning.

    Servers are inexperienced. I'm a drummer that has played there before. The noise level is not too loud unless its thursday, friday or saturday night. This a small place with live bands. It gets very loud!!. Good southern cooking though

    Great food but expect to wait and wait for it to get to your table. My suggestion? Go and eat and enjoy, but go before you are starving and don't plan on getting in and out quickly

    We dropped in here for the first time on an early Thursday evening. It was pretty quiet and we were promptly seated and had drinks within a minute or two. I ordered the patty melt with fries, she ordered the pot roast daily special with mashed potatoes, and we split a side order of macaroni and cheese. The patty melt was fantastic, among the best I've ever had. The fries were delicious. The pot roast was very good as well, and although the potatoes needed something (butter, maybe - this may be taste dependent), they were still quite good. However, the star of the show was the macaroni and cheese, which was EXACTLY how I like it - a little dry and recognizably full of cheddar cheese. Too many southern places use egg or soft cheeses and it ends up being bland - not so here. And then, when we were finished, we had the banana pudding, which was perfect. The Mason Jar does trivia and karoke nights along with live music, and I imagine it would get crowded and loud during that stuff, of course, so this isn't a place for quiet dinner. But with great service, some of the best food I've had since moving to SC (and that's saying something!) and good prices, I think we've found our new favorite restaurant in our new home town.

    This was the worst meal we have ever had anywhere. We had out of town company and someone recommended. I was so embarrassed we had brought our out of town guests here. We ordered the fried cabbage rolls for an appetizer menu described as having cabbage and ground meat inside...no meat and they were so greasy...about a 1/4 inch of grease in bottom of basket. The entrees were no better...two of us ordered pot pie....cream of chicken soup with a pea and carrot thrown in....and waitress recommended...my husband had meatloaf sandwich special on wheat bread...could not Tell if bread was wheat or white...my sister had mason ar chicken it was burned on bottom conveniently hidden with melted cheese on top...only good thing is waitress was very nice and was the ONLY person waiting tables, bar tending, bussing etc so we did not have the heart to tell her the food was horrible....what if she was the one who was cooking too. I can't believe this place stays open with the lack of quality food.
