    This was our second time at Pump House for dinner, service was exceptional as always and they got our party of 6 seated promptly when we got there. Drinks and appetizers were AWESOME, the main dishes were great but not amazing, except for the trout which was the best thing of the night. In the future I hope they change up the menu more… it was exactly the same as what they offered 1.5yrs ago the first time I came here for dinner. Overall an awesome place to come for a nice dinner.

    I met someone here yesterday for a first date. It was my first time coming, and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Johnny, our waiter, was attentive and very responsive to our questions. He did a good job going over the menu and giving us options to fit our different tastes. I look forward to going back.

    First off, The Pump House is an exceptional experience for Rock Hill. We chose to sit at the 5th floor bar - which is our favorite spot . On this night a private party was on the patio and there was only one bartender. Our service was a bit slow and chaotic because the one bartender was constantly being pulled to the server side of the bar with their drink demands . It would seem if a private party is scheduled - than an extra bartender would be needed . Had the actual bar been packed - it could have been way worse. This won’t keep us away but for a less loyal customer or first time experience this could be a negative experience.

    Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We apologize that the private party slowed down your service and hampered your experience with us. We will absolutely take this into consideration to ensure all of our guests have a perfect outing at The Pump House. We would love to hear more about your experience whenever you have time! Sincerely, Pump House Management

    This was our first visit. Our waiter was Travis. He was excellent. Knowledgeable and polite. The food was outstanding!! Two of us had the pork chop and it was absolutely delicious. One had shrimp and grits and it was amazing. One had salmon and it was perfection. Would absolutely dine here again!! We also had the fried okra appetizer and it was really good. The cornbread and peach butter served to each table is so good.

    We came here on Valentine’s Day and liked it so much we came again. We are for making this our regular local spot. We would also like to mention our server MASON, he was great. We had him on both of our visits and we will be requesting him on our future visits. Management was very good also as they made sure to stop by our table to see if everything was alright.
