Senate’s End

Specialties

Once the home of Sterling Garden Center, this group of three distinctive buildings (the Hall, the Manor House, and 300 Senate) and an outdoor Wedding Garden is located on a unique property where Senate Street meets the Congaree River. Nestled next to woods, a ravine and the river at the historic Gervais Street Bridge, you might forget you’re in the heart of downtown’s Vista. Our event venues offer the character of a natural environment with flexible space options, ample parking and proximity to hotels and other downtown benefits.

Sundays, our 300 Senate location is home to our Southern Sunday Brunch and Jazz Series. Delicious Southern specialties, featuring Palmetto State products, followed by live Jazz sponsored by Think Jazz Columbia. 10:30 — 5:00. After the music starts, a $ 4 cover charge supports keeping Jazz alive in Columbia. See our facebook page for more info: www​.face​book​.com/​S​e​n​a​t​esEnd
