Columbia – Biscuitville has officially closed its location at 7924 Garners Ferry Road after just over a year of operation. The restaurant, which opened in March 2024, was the second in the Columbia area, following the first outlet that debuted at 2715 Clemson Road a month earlier. The closing was finalized at 2 p.m. on June 29, 2025, and the location is now listed as closed on both Google and the Biscuitville website.
This closure is a part of Biscuitville’s strategy to focus on sustainable growth and future developments for the brand. The company has not disclosed specific details about the reasons behind the closure, but it is clear that the decision is tied to their vision for growth potential moving forward. Despite this setback in Columbia, Biscuitville is actively expanding in neighboring areas, with another local outlet having opened earlier this year at 10605 Broad River Road in Irmo.
Biscuitville has been a well-regarded Southern breakfast chain for nearly six decades. The company first ventured into South Carolina in recent years, where it currently operates several locations, including sites in Indian Land, Hartsville, Florence, Greer, and Duncan. The organization has plans to continue its regional expansion, including an upcoming new location slated to open in Anderson, South Carolina, later this month.
The original Biscuitville was founded in 1975 in Danville, Virginia. Since then, the chain has grown to operate over 70 locations across Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Biscuitville places a strong emphasis on its commitment to quality breakfast options, with a menu that features freshly made biscuits and other Southern-inspired dishes.
In a move to bolster its operational capabilities, Biscuitville opened a substantial 78,000-square-foot distribution center in Burlington, North Carolina, in 2022. This facility is expected to help streamline logistics and improve the efficiency of supply chain operations as the chain continues to expand and adapt to its growth strategy.
The closing of the Garners Ferry location serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by businesses in the wake of fluctuating customer preferences and economic conditions. As Biscuitville continues to navigate these waters, their focus will remain on enhancing its brand and product development, ensuring that they meet the expectations of loyal customers while exploring new opportunities for expansion in the coming months.
Despite the recent closure, Biscuitville’s ongoing commitment to the South Carolina market highlights its ambition to thrive in the region. The company aims to provide diners with the authentic Southern breakfast experience that has made it a beloved choice among residents for decades.
