Our Guestbook
“ Came into town for a concert and wanted a unique place to eat. So glad we decided to try The Gathering Place Cafe. It has a cozy, comfortable atmosphere which makes one feel welcome while serving a plate of homecooked food that makes you feel like you are visiting your grandma for dinner. It was a busy evening so it did take a little while to get our food but we started with the onion rings as an appetizer which were outstanding and finished with the meatloaf served with moist cornbread. Good size portions and the prices are fair. My only complaint is that I was too full to try one of their homemade desserts. If I lived in town I would eat at this restaurant several times per month. ”
“ I’ve eaten here several times and have never been dissatisfied. It is some of the most delicious food I’ve ever eaten. Today I took my sister, neice and great neice there for lunch. The food is so much like our late mother used to prepare. It is amazing to have home cooking food that rivals any and all restaurants. The place itself is very unassuming and spotlessly clean. The staff are warm and welcoming the minute you walk in the door. Please don’t go out here thinking you are going to a place that’s all fancy because it isn’t. It’s perfectly prepared comfort food in a clean and welcoming environment. It is a cash only place but you can use an ATM next door if needed. Don’t miss this jewel of a rest! ”
“ When we went it was super busy, but after a small amount of time waiting we were seated. I loved what I ordered. The service was great! I would definitely recommend to others. ”
“ 1st time here. Great service. Salad was very good. What do they dip the crackers in?! Amazing! Will be back. ”
“ We had a very tasty lunch at Gathering Place Cafe today. The cafe has a nice selection of salads, soups, sandwiches and meat with sides. Prices are very reasonable and servings generous. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. We will be back when we are in the area. Had another great meal at The Gathering Place this afternoon. This is a must stop when we are in the area. ”
“ Get food. I went with my grandpa and cousin for the first time. And I love this place. Such a warm environment and so welcoming. Although I was a bit shocked that they only took cash when we went. ”
“ We had a great time here and the food was great. The Catfish Dinner 2 piece is crazy big and more than enough. Homemade Onion Rings and fried Green Tomatoes were also very good for the start. The people with me chose the Shrimp Scampi and according to them was just as good as being on the coast. From my understanding people claim it’s one of the best places you can go in the Greenville area. ”
“ Great home cooking and service! Excellent fried green tomatoes ”
