Restaurants
The Rockwall House is located in Greer, South Carolina.
Take a stroll in our charming historic downtown district, with award-winning restaurants, live music, shopping, parks, and many events.
We are also located 20 minutes from the heart of downtown Greenville,
one of the fastest growing cities in America.
It feels almost impossible to compile this list when Greenville has such a large foodie scene with limitless options for dining. While we love Greenville and recommend a trip there, we highly recommend visiting downtown Greer with its brick paved streets and twinkling lights overhead. Here are some of our family favorites in and around Greer. If you’re looking for a specific recommendation, please contact us!
Tip – most local restaurants share the most updated hours, seasonal menus and specials, live music and events on their Facebook pages. Check there first!

One of our family favorites! Very large selection – 60+ house crafted beers on tap, plus ciders, wine, and cocktails brewed in house. Everything on their menu is made from scratch, they have delicious seasonal options and daily specials, and everything we’ve tried was delicious. Great for a date night, hang out spot, watching a game, or bringing the family. Kids and pets welcome – they have a large outdoor yard and covered patio with heaters.
