Spartanburg's
For over 40 years, the Peddler has been Spartanburg’s premier steak house for a fine evening out, for celebrating special occasions and for business entertaining. We’re known for our exceptional steaks, hospitable service and excellent value. Our quality, western beef is aged for a minimum of 28 days for ultimate flavor and tenderness. The Ribeye is our signature steak, and we offer many other popular cuts, along with fresh seafood selections, chicken and chops all charcoal-grilled to order. On the weekends, we serve another popular Peddler specialty – our slow-roasted Prime Rib.
A Deliciously Unique Dining Experience
Dining at the Peddler begins with a warm welcome by your server who will describe what appetizers are available, take your drink order and salad preference. Choose from three house salads including the Peddler’s exclusive “Seated Salad Bar” that offers your choice of 30+ items so you can build your own without leaving your seat.
Next, our meat cutter will present the day’s selection of aged ribeye, which if chosen, will be cut to the size you want at your table. The meat cutter will also recite the featured entrées of the day along with your choice of sides and accompaniments.

GRILLING ALL KINDS OF WONDERFUL
Since 1970
We love the taste of a perfectly grilled steak as much as you do. It’s why we choose to cook on charcoal. We want our meat and seafood entrees to impart all those tender, juicy, amazing flavors that simply can’t be duplicated any other way. Our grill master, Thomas Hamilton has been cooking up delicious creations for over 21 years. It takes a seasoned pro to know when the coals are just right so the embers can work their magic, and the exact time to turn the meat so that it’s grilled to mouth-watering perfection. It’s a difference you can taste…and another reason why every meal at the Peddler is so special.
Our Story
Since the early 1990’s, one family’s name has been synonymous with the Peddler Steak House in Spartanburg. Henry and Barbara Mathison owned and operated the restaurant, along with help from their daughters Heather and Heidi, for 14 years before selling it in 2006. In July of 2011, encouraged by former customers, her family and friends, Heather Mathison seized the opportunity to
buy the restaurant back with a promise to take the Mathison family’s legacy of
Peddler hospitality to a new level. She has been assuring the restaurant’s high
standards ever since.
The Perfect Downtown Location in Historic Morgan Square
In 2018, after 30 years in the Town Square Shopping Center, Heather and Heidi found the perfect place for the Peddler’s forever home in the heart of downtown Spartanburg: 149 West Main Street in Morgan Square. The building, which was listed on the National Historic Register, had great restaurant bones but required a major renovation. “We need a bigger space and downtown’s redevelopment center needed a landmark steak house like the Peddler to serve as a flagship
restaurant to help attract future growth,” says Heather. “It was just meant to be.”
Come See Us at 149 West Main Street
Firmly established as a favorite dining destination in downtown Spartanburg, The Peddler Steak House at 149 West Main Street is a beautifully renovated two-story restaurant featuring indoor dining on the main floor and upstairs…as well as dining outdoors in a delightful private courtyard. The spacious bar has become one of downtown’s most popular spots to stop in for a drink, to enjoy a fine meal and on occasion, an evening of live music.
The Mathison family, along with their long-time, terrific Peddler staff, look forward to serving you for many years to come.
