From a Small Start to Big Adventures

Many of you might recall that Steel Hands first made its mark in the Midlands way back in 2018 with its initial brewery and taproom on Foreman Street in Cayce. They didn’t stop there! In 2022, they expanded their reach with a new location in Greensboro, N.C. Now, they’ve set their sights on the bustling Vista area in Columbia, stepping into the space that was formerly occupied by Twisted Spur Brewing.

A Distillery with Character

What sets Steel Hands apart? Well, they are not just your regular brewery; they are also stepping into the realm of distilling! The new Columbia location boasts a delightful selection of hand-crafted distilled spirits. If you’re a fan of unique drinks, you’ll love their hand-crafted gin and vodka. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg! They’ve even got a delicious pecan-flavored rye whiskey—yes, you read that right! Can you imagine sipping that on a crisp evening?

More Than Just Drinks

But wait, there’s more! Steel Hands is also serving up a mouthwatering assortment of food options that make it the place to be for a full night out. Their menu includes tempting dishes like Spanish stuffed peppers, pecan rye bacon Brussels sprouts, and oven-roasted chicken thighs. If you’re a seafood lover, don’t miss their lemon garlic shrimp cocktails. And for those who crave spicy goodness, there are Cajun crawfish poppers to tickle your taste buds! It sounds like a true feast for the senses.

A Hub in the Heart of the Vista

Located in the heart of the Vista entertainment and hospitality district, Steel Hands is perfectly positioned among other popular spots. You could easily make an evening of it! Nearby establishments include City Grit, known for its delicious food and culinary offerings, the ever-popular Grill Marks for burgers, and Craft Axe Throwing for some fun competition.
