Hubby found this little restaurant on a map while I was driving and it sounded like a nice local…read moreplace to eat lunch rather than having fast food or going to a chain restaurant. The restaurant specializes in using local ingredients and the food was top notch. The Nutty Chicken Salad is a green salad WITH nuts, chicken, and fruit, rather than a southern chicken salad. The portion was generous and filling. Hubby's quesadilla was made with what looked to be a spinach wrap and he said it was tasty. The fry I "stole" from his plate was crispy and enjoyable. The iced tea was refreshing and our server got me a to-go cup for the road when we left. We also took a "Whoppers" cookie with us for a sweet treat. Stopping at Stone Soup was definitely an excellent choice in our travels!

What happened to our go-to restaurant in Landrum?!…read more We were big fans and frequent visitors to Stone Soup based on good food, service and atmosphere. That changed tonight. We were welcomed with a hand-written dry erase board outside of the entrance promoting "SPecails" and should have turned around then. We were seated at the bar and eventually greeted by a bartender, who was able to get me a drink, on my 3rd order (telling us that the manager had quit, the pear martini was no longer on the menu due to cost and that they didn't have the Edmunds Oast, Bound by Time beer that was on the menu (actually spelled on menu as "Bond")). My Wife ordered her usual, Cosmo, and said it was the worst she'd ever had. We ordered the Mediterranean plate and Brussels. They were both fine but we weren't checked on a single time after they were delivered. Our water glasses were empty well before we finished, and never refilled. When I asked for the check and gave the bartender a $100 bill, she gave me change from her pocket, which was to the restaurant's favor by a few cents! What in the world?!? Again, we have been fans of Stone Soup for years but we won't return given this disappointing (truly) experience.

This was a super cute place with a very friendly staff…read more We started with cheese curds and marinara. These curds were as good as any I've had. It was obvious that the marinara was made fresh as there were chunks of tomato in it. I loved the grilled pineapple teriyaki bourbon chicken. The glaze had a wonderful flavor and the pineapples were grilled to perfection.

He was super attentive the whole meal. The bowl was super fresh and a perfect light lunch. My husband's American burger was cooked perfectly and the chili was good! A rare find as most restaurant chili is kinda gross.

Butcher is in the name, but sandwiches are the game here!…read more Don't get me wrong, they have a few meat selections, but don't expect a butchers case loaded with meats and different butcher style cuts. However, I totally loved our sandwiches and beer! My hot take on the Club, the bacon was paper thin and I was expecting some nice thick smoked bacon... The service was excellent and with a smile.

What I can say is the service was impeccable, and the restaurant is clean, beautiful, and exactly what you would expect for a quaint scenic town.

Huge variety from rabbit to alligator and everything in between.This restaurant can easily be a staple with awesome rotating menus and classic southern barbecue. Everything came out perfectly and everyone was impressed with the meal. The waitress was so nice, especially with a big group that was a little indecisive at the end of the night. It felt welcoming, and not just because the classic bbq shop decor, and tucked away feeling inside the building. I will absolutely be coming back when I'm in town again and look forward to trying it again.

I went with the red beans and rice with andouille sausage, and others in my table got the rabbit pasta, and ribs. Everything came out fast and very flavorful!

I really enjoyed the brussel sprouts and the pizza was great. They also have really good beer options, brewed in house. The staff was really nice in taking orders, and even though the restuarant was packed, everything came out pretty quickly. The resturant itself had trivia going on, and we joined in. Even winning one round, but severely losing every other one. There are a ton of games like cornhole, and a dog patio for pet owners. Tons of outdoor space and open concepts for hanging out with friends. Great little brewery that can make for a fun night.

This was my first trip to South Carolina and was very excited to find this restaurant and brewery! They have SO much seating and is great for bigger parties! They have a lot of activities going on as well each week according to their schedule and we just happen to catch them on bingo night where they gave out prizes for the winners, so fun! You can get full service if you sit inside or you can order quick service to sit outside on their picnic benches and tables, we ordered a few pizzas, bread pudding and some drinks, everything came out pretty fast and the staff were very nice and welcoming.
