Seawell’s is a family owned and operated catering business that has been serving delicious food in the Columbia area since 1946. Once a well known restaurant, Seawell’s now provides catering for private events such as weddings, corporate meetings, cocktail parties and banquets of all sizes. From groups of 20 to over 1,000, Seawell’s not only offers it services in their facility located on Rosewood Drive but at off-site locations also.
Seawell’s was founded by Carroll O. Seawell, Sr., and first opened as a small hamburger/hot dog stand on North Main Street. Over time, Seawell’s was expanded into a drive-in restaurant, a meat and 3 vegetable buffet and then in to a full-time catering operation. In the early 1970s, Seawell’s moved from its original location on North Main to inside the South Carolina State Fairgrounds, where it operated for over 20 years. In January 1999, Seawell’s opened the doors to its own 30,000 square foot facility that contains a 13,000+ square foot banquet hall/reception center.
Seawell’s takes pride in not only serving the best and freshest foods, but also in giving top-notch service to make any event a success. Seawell’s can handle a very formal wedding reception or cocktail party as well as a casual Low Country Beaufort Stew.
Just recently Seawell’s began serving a lunch buffet on weekdays from 11:00 am until 2:00 pm. The buffet includes a selection of entrées, fresh vegetables and starches, a garden fresh salad bar, a soup of the day, bread and butter, a large selection of desserts and tea or coffee.
With sons Cal, Robbie and Gary running the second generation establishment, Seawell’s continues to focus on delivering fresh, delicious food in a family-run environment. That means treating employees and clients like family and always giving the highest quality of service.
Seawell’s also offers its “GAMECOCK GAME DAY” for all USC home football games. There is season or individual game parking with indoor restrooms and a large tailgating menu to choose from.
