Back Porch

We are a Classic Southern and New South Cusisine casual dining restaurant located in a beautifully renovated historic two-story brick building in Downtown Spartanburg, South Carolina. You enter our door to find yourself surrounded by the beauty, sounds, and smells of Louisiana's French Quarter and the excitement of Bourbon Street. The various areas of our venue offer many opportunities for our guests to unwind, reminisce, live, love, and laugh. Our front avenue is complete with the 60 seat capacity intimate Bourbon St. Lounge. This area also boasts a Ladies' Sitting Lounge and a beautiful Wine Cellar stocked with vintages from around the globe. Our main dining room on the first level exudes all the charm of the French Quarter as you dine beneath the balconies and stringed street lights. As you wind through the dining room, you find yourself in a more secluded "side-street" that has the feel of a “back alley” jazz joint, where guests can sign their names on the aged plastered walls and kick back and relax The crown gem of our establishment is indeed the Back Porch. Adjacent to the main dining room, it boasts three entrances: Front, Back, and Interior. Guest enter our Garden Courtyard to find themselves tucked within Ivy-covered aging brick walls. Spanish Moss waves above each head as the breeze whishtles through our stunning garden. The focal point of our courtyard is a 25 foot cascading waterfall that peacefully sets the tone for a lazy Luziana afternoon. When the sun goes down, our guest our sure to enjoy a variety of live musical and artistic entertainment on our open air stage. Other musical venues include the grand balcony over-looking the main interior courtyard, and beneath the windowns and street lights of the Bourbon St. Lounge. You will want to make a point to ascend the Grand Staircase to the mansion level of our venue will guests are greeted by wowing wrought iron fixtures, dark woods, metallic artwork, exposed brick and bejewled harlequin paint schemes soaring to the ceiling. Across the balcony past the plush red velvet settee lies the Grand Ballroom. One enters the door to find themselves in a spacious banquet hall featuring a stately chandelier and luxurious seating.
