About Us

The exterior of The Peddler Steak House at night.

Fifty-four years ago, The Peddler Steak House opened its doors at 149 W Main St on Morgan Square, and Spartanburg has been coming back ever since. That kind of staying power is earned one perfectly charred steak at a time. The ritual here is part of the pleasure: your server recites the menu aloud, your ribeye is cut to your specification right at the table, and the charcoal grill does the rest. It is a dining experience that feels like a performance, and the 4.4-star rating across more than a thousand reviews says the crowd keeps giving it a standing ovation.

The kitchen's focus is broad but purposeful: aged steaks are the headliner, joined by seafood, chops, and chicken for guests who want something beyond beef. The Wine Spectator Award of Excellence wine list means the glass in your hand is as carefully chosen as the cut on your plate. Servers like Bri and Mackenzie have become part of the Peddler legend in their own right, earning the kind of praise guests still talk about on the drive home.

This is not a theme restaurant or a chain trying to feel local. The Peddler is local, rooted in the same historic block it has occupied since the Nixon administration, and it shows in every detail from the atmosphere to the plate.

What We Offer

Dine-in is the heart of the Peddler experience, available Tuesday through Saturday evening with the signature tableside custom-cut aged ribeye as the centerpiece. If your group is planning a celebration or a corporate dinner, the private dining room accommodates up to 40 guests in an intimate, dedicated space that keeps the Peddler's warmth without the main-room buzz.

When the South Carolina weather cooperates, the outdoor courtyard opens Friday and Saturday nights, offering an al fresco option that few downtown Spartanburg restaurants can match. The full bar is available throughout, with seating at the bar itself for guests who prefer a more casual perch and a cocktail before or instead of dinner.

Hours run Monday through Thursday from 5:00 to 9:30 PM, and Friday and Saturday from 5:00 to 10:00 PM. The restaurant is closed on Sundays. Visit peddlerspartanburg.com to plan your evening.

"Went to celebrate my Anniversary with my wife. Our server was Mackenzie and she was phenomenal! We both got the New York Strip and it was the best we've ever had. She even brought us a dessert at the end and it was delicious too! We will definitely be going back and asking to sit in her section! 10/10 recommended!!"

"A lovely fine dining experience, with some uniqueness that I will remember. The menu is verbal, which is interesting! They cut the steaks in front of you, which also a nice touch. Our steak was very well cooked, even if the ribeye was a touch less tender than expected. We will absolutely be back — and you have to get the Mac & cheese!"
— Janson Silvers
