The food here is consistently good. Excellent wine cellar. Can sometimes be loud so we always request outdoor seating if weather permits or a booth. Crab cakes, fried chicken, bacon wrapped tenderloin are some of our favorites. The sides are always delicious and they are happy to give you what you prefer even if another side is listed. The white chocolate banana cream pie is spectacular.

The museum has a wonderful collection of artifacts from the long history of Upstate South Carolina. Dating back to the original Cherokee who populated this area, the displays carry you through the wars, the economy, the social changes, and all of the things that made the area what it is today. There is an introductory video that is especially informative.
