Columbia Craft Brewing Company Taproom, 520 Greene Street: 6 October 2025 no comments
Put this one down to the changing craft beer landscape and South Carolina's new bar regulations. As I understand it, the saturation of the craft niche made operating a retail outlet iffy in the first place, while the difficulty of putting a kitchen in this building made transforming into a full restaurant problematic as well. Of at least that's my takeaway from the numerous articles about the closing.
I was not really aware of this place, despite it having been open for eight years, and admit I probably would not have visited knowing it was not a full restaurant.
Columbia Craft Brewing continues to operate as a brewery, and we will have to see what's next for this space.
You can read about in in The Post & Courier here & here, in The State, or on WIS or WLTX.
