Some new finds
I wanted to go ahead and post these while they're fresh on my mind.
This weekend we visited a couple of good restaurants that I would highly recommend.
In Tryon, North Carolina, a great little bakery and cafe is 10 North Trade Bakery Cafe http://www.10northtrade.com/. It's downtown Tryon and has a great breakfast and lunch selection. They also have high quality loose leaf teas and a cozy atmosphere. You can tell that locals visit here often as well as those passing through (like the cyclists we saw grabbing a bit for brunch). If you're looking for breakfast or lunch and you're in the area of South Carolina/North Carolina border (between Spartanburg and Asheville), check this place out.
Also we found a great new hang out in downtown Greenville, South Carolina. It's called The Velo Fellow a Publick House http://thevelofellow.com/. It's near the walking bridge and park area of West End Greenville. Just find Mellow Mushroom and go underneath it (facing the Falls Park). It's a funky little place with bare bulbs, a bar and a juke box (with music from jazz to the Beatles to Band of Horses). The food is great and the kitchen is very accommodating for vegetarian tastes. They even have a vegan option for a veggie burger. They have a huge appetizer of fried green tomatoes and each day they have an Indian special. I know it sounds funny but I believe that a true English style pub would have Indian food selections next to their fish and chips. This place seems like a great place to hang out, have a beer and read on their leather couches. I hope to visit there again soon.
While at the Velo Fellow, we had a slice of cake that came from their neighbor, Coffee to a Tea http://coffeetoatea.com/. The cake was amazing and we were told it's made from all organic ingredients and made from scratch. This is another place I think I will be visiting again soon. It looks like they serve breakfast and lunch as well as coffee and tea and bakery selections.
There are so many new places popping up in the West End district of Greenville, it's an adventure searching them out. Spend a day strolling and taking in the sights. Hopefully I will be posting soon about Greenville and the many attractions in this foothills city.
Stay tuned!
