About Falls Cottage

Located in historic West End, Mary’s at Falls Cottage provides a charming and

casually elegant setting for your special event. Situated in a peaceful garden

overlooking Falls Park on the Reedy River, Mary’s is truly one of Greenville’s

most spectacular settings.

Built in 1893 by W.E. Touchstone, the superintendent of Camperdown Mill,

Falls Cottage was a private residence until the late 1960's. Now a protected

landmark on the Historic Register, Fall’s Cottage has been the proud home of

Mary’s Restaurant since 2004.

Customer Story

Miss Mary,

I wanted to thank you for hosting our rehearsal dinner last Friday.! The food was

fabulous and everything I could have wished and better.! Candy went out of her

way to make everything perfect that evening. Our family is still talking about the

wonderful food, wonderful service and wonderful setting for our once in a life-

time occasion.

Many, many thanks to you and Candy.

Customer Story

Thank you for helping make this day a very special occasion for Marc and Neely.

The food was excellent. Its presentation was beautiful. Everyone just raved over

the shrimp and grits. The sweet potato casserole was the best I have ever had

and my opinion was seconded more than once. I cannot say enough about the

food. This is certainly not restaurant food, but more like a personally prepared

special meal. !!

!

The facility is beautiful in its setting but the way the staff arranged the tables and

the chairs for the service added to the beauty of the park. Your staff is excellent.

Dealing with all the details, changing things to accommodate the weather

change, making sure the bride and groom were pleased and CARING. That

describes their attitude. They cared enough to make things wonderful. Please let

all three know how much we appreciate their taking care of us.!!

Customer Story

I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful our wedding was. Candy was absolutely

on her game, and so incredibly easy to work with. She was wonderful to all our

guests… and we heard nothing but compliments about your staff! I can’t say

enough just how happy we were to have her in charge of our wedding!

!

The food was everything we could have hoped for and MORE! The presentation

was beautiful; the food was fresh and delicious beyond words. I am still getting

emails about the food. Thank you so much for making it such a joy!

!

Lastly, thank you Mary. The restaurant and garden offered the perfect backdrop

to our dream wedding! Kevin and I wanted to keep it simple and elegant, and

Mary’s offered every bit of that. The best decision we made was to choose

Mary’s restaurant, and we thank you for your hospitality. !

With love and warmest regards,

Lea and Kevin Robinson
