The type of restaurant has not been determined.Residents have mixed reactions to the proposal, though excitement appears high for the possibility of additional dining options.“I think we need more good restaurants,” said Conway resident Brigitt Smith.Kenneth and Brigitt Smith, frequent dog walkers at Conway’s Riverwalk, said they occasionally visit the area for dinner but could see themselves coming more often with two new restaurants.“I think it would be a great idea. It’ll probably attract more people to come down and visit the sites,” said Kenneth Smith.“I also think it’s a good idea cause Conway is such a beautiful historic town and it would bring so many more people down here,” said Brigitt Smith.Not all residents support the development. Mike Goldson said he prefers the area as it currently exists.“A lot of us like to come here just to walk on the boardwalk. I walk my little dog and get her some exercise out of the house, and so I guess the long and short of it is it’s pretty nice the way it is, and sometimes the best action is no action at all,” said Goldson.City officials believe the restaurants could boost off-season traffic in Conway.“Restaurants are always a pull for people, especially in the slower season,” said Sarah Barrentine, Programs and Communications Coordinator for the Conway Chamber of Commerce. “I think having two new restaurants that the developer seems to want to pull some restaurants that are not really going to compete with what’s currently here. So, I definitely think it will drive more traffic.”The Conway Chamber of Commerce said additional foot traffic from locals and visitors would support the city’s growth.Feel more informed, prepared, and connected with WMBF.

Two New Restaurants Proposed for Conway's Riverwalk

CONWAY, SC - Two new restaurants are being proposed for Conway's Riverwalk, adjacent to Bonfire Taqueria. Developer Tripp Nealy presented plans to the city’s Community Appearance Board last Wednesday for a nearly 10,000-square-foot building that could accommodate around 300 diners. While the specific types of restaurants have yet to be decided, local residents have expressed mixed reactions. Some, like Brigitt and Kenneth Smith, view the development positively, anticipating increased dining options and tourism. However, others like Mike Goldson prefer the current state of the area.
