It was our first time here and it was delicious! We came for Saturday brunch and tried the ham balls and praline bacon. For our main course, we got the brisket and grits, the Cajun waffle, and a plain waffle. Everything was hot, fresh, flavorful, and delicious. I definitely want to come back to check out their other menus. So good!!
What a cool little place! Great food and we loved the old southern charm of the property. Employees were so friendly and service was excellent. The Fried Hand Pies are so good! I bought one to go but wished I'd bought more. Definitely will be a return visit for us to try other menu items.
An excellent restaurant with friendly staff, wonderful service and some downright tasty food! I went not knowing what to expect but I had tomato pie and a phenomenal Burger! Fries were homemade and crispy is all get out. Affordable food, excellent quality, what more could you ask for??
My husband had to go to a job in Greenwood. He ask if I wanted to go and we'll eat lunch at 'Grits & Groceries' and we did. The people were very friendly. We live in the Earl's Grove Community of Westminster,SC. It was well worth the drive. The food was great. We'll be going back.
We love this place. We come here pretty much weekly. I love the shrimp and Grits and the praline bacon it's so good. Everything is good for the soul. Prices are great, still has that small hometown feel and the food and service are always on point.
This is definitely where you want to be! The food was amazing, and the portions were just right! The Hollandaise sauce was creamy, rich, and definitely the best that I have ever eaten! The fried chicken was fresh and juicy in the Red Rooster Bowl. Oh yeah, the Roosters name is Rudy!
Oh. My. Goodness. Was brought here by some family members, I would have not known otherwise. Y'all.... Y'ALL! When people are passionate about the food they serve, you get this. You get delicious, hot, fast, plentiful. I had the praline bacon first. If First Watch has 'Million Dollar Bacon', well this is 'Billion Dollar Bacon'! Next up, I had the Cowboy Benedict. tender, juicy steak atop a fluffy biscuit with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. The flavors and textures come together perfectly, the meat had a smoky taste as well and it was DELIGHTFUL. Couldn't leave without trying the beignets. EXCELLENT. Super friendly people, fast ticket times, great atmosphere and a whole lot of deliciousness. They now take card payment and are no longer cash only, FYI. Treat yourself and give this adorable place a shot. You won't regret it. Too far? Nonsense. For a foodie, it's worth the drive.
The best brunch in South Carolina! And they DO ACCEPT DEBIT CARDS NOW!! We heard about this place years ago and never took the time to make the trip until this past Saturday. Trust me - it is worth the minutes, miles, and money. The food is incredible. The staff is very friendly and hospitable. And the atmosphere is the perfect experience for being out in the country where it is. The praline bacon is like candy. The brisket is so full of flavor. Eggs mmm so good. Even the grits are delicious. Oh and the mimosas did not disappoint. Will definitely be back!!
