The latest food and beverage offering by Dine Upstate is open at BridgeWay Station in Mauldin.

City Market is a food hall from the creators of The Warehouse at Vaughn’s in Simpsonville and Warehouse at Midtown. Owners Thomas and Angie Wirthlin’s new venue will feature five casual and refined dining restaurants: Bula Bula Bowl, Bridgeway Pizza Co., Boba Ocha Tea Co., Hotto Noodle, and their flagship Bourbon St. Burgers, as well a Public House with 25 craft beers along with imports and domestics, wine, prosecco and mimosas.

BridgeWay Station, meanwhile, will host a development-wide grand opening ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday, April 27.

City Market at BridgeWay Station is in the heart of the project’s grand piazza. According to a news release, it is the largest food hall in South Carolina, occupying approximately 9,500 square feet of ground floor retail space on the project’s main public square as well as a 4,000-square-foot rooftop bar overlooking the main piazza. The rooftop bar, outfitted with a full bar and its own private stage, will open this spring, the release stated.

“City Market isn’t just a food hall. It’s a dining destination,” Thomas Wirthlin said in the release. “We’ve cultivated a space where the joy of shared meals and unique tastes blend. Here, everyone can find what they are craving while enjoying the beautiful Bridgeway Station.”

The indoor and outdoor dining space will allow for many private parties and functions, and reservations can be made by contacting [email protected].

Phil Hughes, president of Hughes Investments Inc. said in the release: “Thomas and Angie have effectively demonstrated their capacity to create an exceptional community space that caters to a wide range of preferences. This perfectly resonates with our mission at BridgeWay Station, which aims to be an inclusive destination for individuals, families and communities to come together and enjoy many choices to eat, shop, work, live, play or just relax. We really look forward to partnering with them to bring a great diversity of food, beverage and entertainment options for everyone.”
