A Southern breakfast favorite is closing a Columbia location. Here’s where
Their biscuits have been rising in South Carolina for a few years now, but one of their local restaurants is no more.
One of the three Biscuitville locations in the Columbia area has shuttered after operating for a little more than a year at 7924 Garners Ferry Road.
Opened in March 2024, it was the second location of the Southern breakfast staple, known for its array of biscuit sandwiches, to open in the area. The Garners Ferry restaurant opened a month after the first Columbia outpost arrived at 2715 Clemson Road. The other local Biscuitville, at 10605 Broad River Road in Irmo, opened earlier this year.
The Garners Ferry location is listed as closed by both Google and the Biscuitville website.
In a statement provided to The State, Biscuitville said it “is committed to continuing to grow our company in a careful and sustainable way. In the coming months, we will be announcing exciting new developments related to our brand, our products and our commitment to serving our communities and our employees. Part of our process for planning for the future always includes conducting a current analysis of every store’s operations and performance.”
“We are extremely pleased with how our stores are performing, serving guests and contributing to the overall success of the company,” the statement continued. “However, for a number of reasons related to the future growth of the company, the decision was made to close our 7924 Garners Ferry Rd., Columbia, SC, location at 2 p.m. on June 29, 2025.”
Biscuitville has been a Southern favorite for nearly six decades. Rooted in North Carolina and Virginia, it only ventured into South Carolina in the past few years. There are other Palmetto State locations in Indian Land, Hartsville, Florence, Greer and Duncan.
Another SC location is set to open later this month in Anderson, according to the restaurant’s website, broadening its reach throughout the state.
The first Biscuitville opened in 1975 in Danville, Virginia, per the chain’s website. The company now has more than 70 locations across Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina. In 2022, it opened a 78,000-square-foot distribution center in Burlington, North Carolina.
