What kinds of events happen at Maisie’s Green Brae?

Check the lineup above or follow @maisiesgreenbrae for what’s next.
What nights is there live music at Maisie’s Green Brae?
Live music runs many nights and sometimes during the day in Tega Cay, SC, and it’s always free or with a donation to charity. Local and regional acts play from supper into the evening, outside or inside depending on the weather, everything from country and classic rock to soul, acoustic, and the odd dance band. Check the lineup above or follow @maisiesgreenbrae for who’s on next.
Is there a cover charge for the live music?
No. Live music at Maisie’s Green Brae is always free or with a donation to charity. We’d rather you spend your hard-earned dollars on food and drink to make your night even better, so grab supper and a drink and stay for the set. For dining, please make a reservation to make sure you get a table.
Is the music indoors or outside?
It depends on the weather. Bands play outside when it’s kind and inside when it isn’t, so call 803.81.HOUND (46863) before you bring your dog. Check the lineup above or follow @maisiesgreenbrae for what’s on next and where.
Is it real sound, or just background music?
Real sound, run by people who know what they’re doing. Close enough to talk over if you need to; good enough to stop and listen when you want to.
Do I need a reservation, or can I just show up?
Either works. Live music is always free or with a donation to charity. A reservation is the surest way to a table on a busy night, and parties of 2 to 12 book on OpenTable at no charge. We also keep a small number of seats for walk-ins, so you’re welcome to just show up and grab a drink at the bar or in a lounge while we get a spot ready. Parties of 13 to 20 book with a credit card on file; for more than 20, call or email.
Is Maisie’s Green Brae a good spot for date night near Fort Mill and Charlotte?
It’s an easy date night. Live music, honest food, and a full bar, a short drive from Fort Mill, Lake Wylie, Rock Hill, and Charlotte. Come for supper, share a drink, and let the evening stretch out under the string lights. The music is always free or with a donation to charity, and there’s no rush; dinner and drinks keep the music going. For dining, please make a reservation to make sure you get a table.
Is there a late-night menu?
Yes. Fridays and Saturdays, a late-night menu runs from 9 to 10 pm — a shorter list for a longer evening. It’s made for the grown-ups who want to linger after the little ones have gone home: a drink, a bite, and no one clearing your table. The full kitchen winds down, and late-night takes it from there.
Can I bring the whole family, including kids?
Yes. Maisie’s Green Brae is family-friendly, and the backyard gives kids room to roam while the music plays and supper comes out. It’s made for quality time: neighbors at the bar, kids on the lawn, everyone at the same table. All ages welcome.
Is there a play area for kids?
Yes. The grounds have a children’s play area and a fairy garden — a proper one, not a corner with crayons. Kids have room to move while the music plays and supper comes out. The outdoor space is not precious. All ages welcome.
Are dogs welcome in the backyard?
Yes, this is the Brae, after all. Well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome in the backyard, so bring yours along for a night of music or a bite on the patio. We just ask that they stay leashed and easy around the crowd. On music nights, call 803.81.HOUND (46863) before you bring your dog, since bands play inside when the weather turns.
Can I watch sports at the bar?
Yes. Four TVs at the inside bar, two more at the outside bar, and the big screen goes up on the stage when the game earns it. We’re built around the backyard and the table rather than a wall of screens, but the game is on and there is room for your whole group. Call 803.81.HOUND to check what’s showing.
Do you show college and pro football?
Yes. College football every Saturday and pro football every Sunday, on six TVs plus the stage screen when the matchup earns it — often more than one game at once. No cover; just order supper and a drink and settle in. For dining, please make a reservation to make sure you get a table. Kids take the backyard, leashed dogs are welcome, and nobody rushes your table. We close at 8 on Sundays, so the afternoon games are the ones to come for.
Can we come play games, like mahjong?
Yes, and we encourage it during our quieter hours: 2 to 5 pm any day we’re open, and from 8 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Bring your tiles, your cards, or your board game, order something good, and settle in. For guided mahjong with Mahj On The Run, check the lineup above.
Do you do outdoor movie nights?
Occasionally. When the season’s right, we set up movie nights in the backyard: bring a blanket, settle on the lawn, and watch under the stars. They’re family-friendly and easy. Dates land on the calendar as we set them, so follow @maisiesgreenbrae for the next showing.
Can you handle a big group for a night out?
Yes. Whether it’s a birthday, a team night, or a crew of neighbors, the backyard has room to spread out. For larger parties, give us a heads-up at 803.81.HOUND (46863) or maisie@mgb-llc.co so we can hold space and have the kitchen ready. Private events have their own page, too.
What are the Maisie’s Green Brae Highland Games?
Our Highland Games are a new family-friendly tradition launching in 2027: a backyard day of Scottish-rooted games, food, and live music in Tega Cay. We’re still setting the season, the date, and the details. Follow @maisiesgreenbrae and watch the calendar, and we’ll share the day as it comes together.
Can my organization host or partner on an event at Maisie’s Green Brae?
Yes. Nonprofits, entrepreneurs, and small business owners are welcome to bring us an idea that brings the community together. Email maisie@mgb-llc.co or call 803.81.HOUND (46863), and tell us what you have in mind.
