Fort Mill soon could have a new restaurant destination. See what’s coming, and when.
A coming Fort Mill development could prove to be a new restaurant destination, with four new-to-the-area tenants planned so far.
Brayden Village is a 33,000-square-foot retail project on S.C. 160, between Fort Mill and Tega Cay. Among eight signed tenants are several new restaurants. Two more tenants are at lease but haven’t been announced, according to the site leasing company. Space remains for up to four more tenants, even with those additions.
Tenants thus far are restaurant heavy. The retail site includes outdoor seating and patio spaces. Planned eateries include:
▪ Inizio Pizza Napoletana will take the corner space at S.C. 160 and Brayden Parkway. It’s the only restaurant listed thus far in the building that runs parallel to the parkway. Inizio will have a 2,900-square-foot space. The Charlotte-area company has three locations (Ballantyne, Dilworth, Huntersville). The menu includes a wide range of artisan pizzas, plus salads.
▪ The storefront closest to Fort Mill, at the end of of the building facing S.C. 160, will be a Super Chix Chicken & Custard. The restaurant that bills itself having “the last true chicken sandwich” serves breaded and grilled chicken sandwiches, tenders, fries, salads and custard. The 2,900-square-foot Fort Mill site is one of six coming for the company that already has 10 locations in five states.
▪ Beside Super Chix will be a new Duck Donuts. The company is named after Duck, N.C., where one of its first stores opened in 2007. There are now locations nationwide, including in Charlotte and Columbia. Shops serve custom and made-to-order doughnuts, coffee, sandwiches and sundaes. The Fort Mill site will be 1,300 square feet.
▪ Beside the doughnut shop is Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop. The restaurant is in 26 states. The nearest are in Cary, N.C. and Atlanta. Capriotti’s began in Delaware back in 1976. The menu includes sub sandwiches with everything from homemade turkey to chicken cheesesteak and Wagyu beef. The Brayden site will be 1,600 square feet.
The new shopping center isn’t all restaurants. A 6,000-square-foot Sola Salon Studios is signed on for the building where Inizio is. Pacific Dental and ISI Elite Training — 3,000 square feet each — are planned for the opposite building as is a 1,900-square-foot Trendy Nail Bar.
Josh Beaver, vice president with The Nichols Company that manages leasing, said the first round of openings should come later this month. Those sites will be the service, non-restaurant additions. Super Chix, Duck Donuts and Capriotti’s should follow late summer or early fall. Opening for Inizio is still to be determined.
