Cozy little favorite under ground place nearby. The steak is on point as well as their cocktail menu. I love the machine shaken old fashioned when I am feeling classy. No bar does this better with egg whites.

Need a quick semi healthy lunch? Grab a chicken fresca bowl with the white garlic sauce. The regular size bowl is enough for two or to take home and save for later.

This place has some hype due to its location near falls park and how long its been around. Skip the free corn bread offered at the start. I tend to go with the pulled pork sandwich here with slaw and beans. They have several homemade sauces - ill tell you a little secret about this place - the Jack Daniel's Pecan Pie - not even the locals know how good this desert is... thank me later.

Good roof top spot above Cantina 76, you must take the elevator next to the Cantina entrance. They sometimes have live music. They have big Jenga games and are more geared toward group gatherings of 5+. A bit expensive for the cocktails, go for the free view and a look around!

4 floors, small rooftop bar. 3rd floor turns into a nightclub on weekends but prepare to wait in a long line if its past 11:00. I like the mimosas here for Sunday brunch.

This is further away but the the fresh made steca bread alone is worth the trip. The sandwiches are fresh and incredible. If you are up on a Saturday morning during summer the farmers market will have the bread at one of the local tents! Get it while it lasts!

Another favorite brewery a little further away is in a cool complex of different pop up shops. (Pottery classes/Crossfit/Vintage clothing/Art/White Duck Taco) The way to do this place right is to start at the nearby swamp rabbit café & grocery, get some local stecca bread, and head on an adventure to find this gem of a brewery about 10 minutes walking distance away. The two are not connected exactly by the common trail so you will have to do some exploring. Otherwise there is parking in both locations. Check it out its a fun lunch spot - check the website for open times beforehand as it may vary from time to time in this location.

If I could only recommend one place to eat this would be it. This place is about 35 minuets from downtown Greenville...However, if you have come to south Carolina to experience amazing BBQ this is the place. Bobby's BBQ is worth the drive you will not be disappointed. The brisket melts in your mouth all of their sides are incredible. Bobby's is located in the middle of nowhere fountain Inn next to some train tracks. This is the best BBQ I have ever had in my life.

Craft brew enthusiast? This place has most/all local & regional craft beers as well as ciders and wine on tap! You can try multiple beers using a scanner system that allows you to pour by the ounce and try many! As an additional bonus it is DOG-FRIENDLY and you can bring your furry friends inside. Food menu is from the taco joint next door.

45 Minuet drive. You should be ok to find parking on the week days. Weekends you must get there very early or arrive in the late afternoon to find parking. Even if you dont find parking the drive is stunning and there are look outs along the way. Bring hiking shoes.
