The Story Behind The Farehouse
The Farehouse is more than just a restaurant—it’s part of the heart of Taylors. Owners Michael Marut and Cristy Biles moved to Taylors in 2015 with a dream. By 2016, they set their sights on opening a restaurant inside Taylors Mill. Their goal? To build a space where people could connect over inventive meals and great cocktails.
Now located in Dock No. 3 of the historic Taylors Mill, The Farehouse is helping breathe new life into a building that was once part of South Carolina’s booming textile industry. This mill is one of the largest grassroots redevelopment projects in the state. And thanks to places like The Farehouse, it’s now a hub for creativity, community, and great dining.
