Established in 1785, the Town of Edgefield is perhaps one of the most overlooked small towns in the state. The birthplace of statesmen, poets, and Confederate dignitaries of various ranks from the Civil War, Edgefield is a true Southern gem. The town’s famous public square is a testament to the traditional vibes that resound throughout the town. And only a block from that town square sits an upscale restaurant in South Carolina that delivers an exceptional dining experience.

Old Edgefield Grill is located in a circa 1906 home that was once one of the grandest in the town proper.

Today, visitors to the old home are treated to unforgettable dining in three dining rooms that feel as if you're dining in someone's living room.

Each of them features original detailing, including antique fireplaces and mantels.
The Senator Strom Thurmond Room is among them and dining here in Thurmond's home town in a room named after the Senator is especially moving.
