One of our family favorites! Pretty much anything on the menu is fantastic! We love the Farmhouse Nachos to start or the Queso. Tacos so good! Our favorites are the: Fish Taco, the Buttermilk Fried Chicken and the Korean Short Rib. The enchilada is huge and excellent! The boys in our tribe usually go for the Texas Brisket Burrito. We recently went for the Chimichanga and it was phenomenal! This place will not disappoint! A great stop to hit after a long bike ride or hike, or if you're just plain hungry! And go hungry! You will want to eat it all! If you're in the mood for a cocktail - our favorite is the Mango Margarita! They also offer brunch on Saturdays and Sundays.

A locals favorite! We loved the chicken wings to start. Our family enjoyed the burgers to share. Also loved their Mac & Cheese and the Cheddar & Smoked Jalapeño Hushpuppies. If you like pickles - they pride themselves on their pickles. So check those out! The banana pudding for dessert was so good! They have a kids menu, as well and a happy hour & lunch specials menu. This place is very kid friendly and they have a great outdoor space in the back.

This place is a farm to table TR favorite with live Jazz on Thursday nights! The restaurant owns a farm and most of their produce comes directly from there. Everything about Topsoil is LOCAL. Besides a great wine list, their cocktails looked delicious. We will have to return and try one out. We absolutely loved the Cheese Board and the Market Salad to start. The evening we went, the seafood option was a lovely Rainbow Trout. Thumbs up! Unfortunately, we also had the Brasstown Flatiron Steak and it was a bit disappointing. Besides that, everything else was excellent and the service is top notch! May return and try the Ribeye for Two.

If in TR and you're craving some sushi, definitely check out Sushi Yama! Everything was very fresh. Coming from S Florida, we are very picky when it comes to fish, and we have to say Sushi Yama is fresh. For a side try the Sautéed Brussel Sprouts! Always enjoy a great Seaweed Salad. The Hibachi Steak was excellent and great value! And loved their Teriyaki Salmon! The kids menu is more of an adult size portion. Sushi Yama packs a lot for the price. Loved it! Can get busy so make a reservation on the weekends.

Close to home and so good! We love us some Sidewall Pizza! We love to start with the Baked Goat Cheese or Spinach, Artichoke Dip. Then move on to one of their lovely salads. We usually go for the Arugula or the Greek. They have a nice assortment of salads to choose from. A Margherita Pizza and the Roasted Mushroom are our favorites. We're simple. But check out their menu - their pizzas are awesome! You will love, love Sidewall! Oh! And don't miss the Cinnamon Sugar Dough Bites!

Where the locals go for one of the best burgers in town! Nothing fancy, just good home cooked food. Fresh cut fries. The Northwest Burger is the best! Love the Patty Melt as well. And leave room for dessert. The Blackberry Cobbler was delicious, but the Banana Pudding is the best you've ever had! "Just like Mama makes!" Just a little ways outside of center town, towards Marietta.

City/town information
Downtown Greenville is 10.2 miles from Trailblazer Bungalow (approx. 20 min. drive). We love to stroll through Main Street and walk around Falls Reedy Park. One of the loveliest downtowns in the south, if not the country! Great places to eat or enjoy a cocktail. Be sure to look out for street musicians or catch some live jazz. Our family enjoys Spill the Beans right by the park. They offer great coffee drinks and ice cream. Our favorite is the Espresso Milkshake. If you prefer, you can ride your bike from Trailblazer Bungalow, on the Swamp Rabbit Trail, all the way to Falls Reedy Park.
