Delaware-based Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant plans to open a location in Columbia’s BullStreet District next year, adding to the area’s rapid growth.

This will be the 21st location for Iron Hill, founded in Newark, Del., in 1996, and the second location in South Carolina. Iron Hill also has a location on Haywood Road in Greenville.

Iron Hill Columbia is expected to open in summer 2021 across the street from Starbucks, breaking ground this spring, and near the REI Co-op store, opening later this year.

The 7,500-square-foot Iron Hill facility will include an on-site brewing facility with seating for approximately 250 people, including a bar area, dining room and outdoor dining space.

Kevin Finn, chairman of the board and director of development at Iron Hill, said in a news release that BullStreet was a natural fit for the brewery’s newest location.

“BullStreet is a thriving, newly-developed area, and given its residential, office, retail and entertainment appeal, in addition to its proximity to multiple universities and colleges, we knew this neighborhood was a great choice for us,” Finn said.

The brewery is partnering with Bray Architecture to design the brewery and restaurant’s color palette and floor plan. McMillan Pazdan Architecture is working on the base architecture of the facility.
