Such a fun night at Draper Purveying Company! I went to the Old Forester Whiskey Row Dinner and it was awesome. The food was incredible -- every course had that perfect southern comfort vibe, and each one was paired with a different bourbon that totally worked. You could tell the chef and team put a lot of thought into it. The staff made the whole experience even better -- super friendly, easy to talk to, and really knew their bourbon. The atmosphere was relaxed but still felt special, like one of those nights you just don't want to end. Draper is quickly becoming one of my favorite spots in downtown Greenville. Can't wait to go back for their next event!

A last minute reservation for a team dinner after rescheduling an original team reservation was a perfect evening with the Draper staff. The staff was so accommodating and welcoming to our team from Wisconsin. They immediately felt like they were at home with a warm ambiance, a great server and team who made piping hot appetizers, and went through each detail of the ingredient for those at the table needing clarity for allergies and preferences. I missed taking photos of the two orders of fried Brussel sprouts, two crab cakes, 1 jalapeño cornbread and burrata. Each appetizer was delicious and the service balancing the midwestern guests was perfectly paired with accompanying beverages for our meals. Chefs kiss to the crab cakes-- my coworker originally born in South Georgia said, "it tastes like my nana made this' and you can taste the 'southern hospitality in the way the corn was prepared'. Our entrees were delicious. The salmon was perfectly cooked, the risotto had such balanced flavors and man, if I could have licked the plate, I would have. The balance of flavors was a melody of true art of sitting at the table with great service, company, and ending a team dinner with teammates who felt the welcome to the South.

I had heard of the opening of Draper Purveying in the former space of Barley's Pizzeria and had the chance to visit here for lunch on a Friday. I made a reservation via Open Table for noon, thinking it would be crowded. Turns out, as the manager, Keith said, "lunch is still pretty hit-or-miss" with the crowd. Evenings are more crowded for dinner service, and the upstairs event space becomes a live music scene on weekends nights called the Cats Pajamas, open until 2AM. See my attached photos of this renovation from what formerly was an upper end pool hall. There are many tables here that can fit parties of six to eight. The front section of the restaurant can be closed off to serve a private party of 20, seated at three tables. This latter space has window seating right on Washington. The two of us arrived on time and were promptly seated, given a menu and received iced water in what I originally thought was a plastic cup but instead was a Draper logo glass which resembled a plastic cup. All this happened inside of 3 minutes. And a minute later, we were ready to order and our order was taken. Y Keith. All that happened within five minutes, so the service was proving out excellent. I chose the blackened mahi mahi tacos on grilled flour tortillas with poblano slaw and grilled pineapple salsa with regular fries. My favorite wife chose the hand battered chicken tenders with Cajun lemon pepper fries. My mahi tacos were $15 and her tenders were $13. So the prices and portions are also shaping up as excellent. And wouldn't you know it, the food arrived at 12:15, promptly brought to our table by Keith. We did have another wait staff check on us several times for anything we may have been missing, or for refills, so it wasn't just Keith at front of house. I looked around and noted the "crowd". Including us, there were four two tops, then a table of seven and a table of five and then one solo diner. I was surprised that the restaurant has yet to make the lunch crowd traction and hence my earlier reported discussion with Keith. We were also told about Saturday and Sunday brunch, which sounds quite lovely, beginning at 11 on Saturday and 10 on Sunday. Inquiring about reservations, we were told we could make them for brunch, but it's easy to squeeze in two for seating. That's on our "to do" list. The mahi was cooked perfectly, the blackening was just right, noticeable and not overwhelming the slaw and salsa. It was one delicious, juicy bite with well proportioned ingredient ratios for a composed dish flavor. Shoestring fries accompanied with the Cajun lemon pepper dry spice, crispy and not limp or "sweating" and a good sized portion was provided. My wife loved the fresh chicken tenders, hand breaded and not the frozen pre-breaded type, so they were crisp, juicy and also with a light crunch such that she remarked, "these do not need any sauce, sauce would take away from the flavor." We were invited to go upstairs and take a peek at that event space and were even more impressed with the make over done by Draper. Now, we need to make future plans for a brunch and for a dinner, but I'll leave the "open 'til 2AM" Cats Pajamas crowd on their own. Excellent food and value for lunch!

Fried green tomatoes with homemade pimento cheese and hot honey drizzle. To die for.

Great food. Our favorite restaurant in Greenville. Great Sunday brunch. Meadow is a fantastic bartender/mixologist. Not hard to look at either. Ash is extremely friendly and staff is fun. Do yourself a favor and visit this place. Live music some too

Fried chicken with chorizo gravy
Britt D.

What a great spot ! We came here last night and enjoyed our visit. The atmosphere is wonderful. Staff is extremely friendly and kind. I would make a reservation before though. We had the beef tenderloin appetizer--so good! We finished dinner with the fried chicken and penne. We will be back. Prices are reasonable and food had great flavor, and lots of options.

Ahi tuna tostada
Christine A.

Great service at the bar, amazing atmosphere and food. We got the coffee rubbed beef tenderloin, ahi tuna tostadas, filet with shrimp add on, and creme brûlée. Absolutely will be back to try more menu items. Thank you for a great dining experience and delicious food!

Crème brûlée and espresso martinis
Erica L.

It was our second experience here and it was amazing yet again. We had the tuna appetizer and the penne vodka with a petite filet and the salmon... both entrees were full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The salmon had a nice crisp outside and tender juicy center, the filet was cooked to request of medium and had great peppercorn flavor. We ate everything so quick we forgot to take a photo but we also got to enjoy the crème brûlée and espresso martinis for dessert and they also did not disappoint! Staff is prompt and friendly as well. The decor is new modern but comfortable. A wonderful add to downtown Greenville

In town for an event and went to lunch with a work friend. I had been to a F&P in another location…read moreand remembered liking it enough to recommend to my friend. This place doesn't disappoint. I had forgotten they change the menu 3 times a day based on the fresh ingredients they have on hand. This day they had a brisket sandwich with fries, which I substituted for a delicious garden salad. You really can't go wrong.

I came here for brunch with some friends after a girls' weekend in Greenville. The service was…read moreprompt and friendly, and the ambiance was clean and well-decorated inside and on the heated, screened-in patio. We were seated on the terrace by the door, which was less than desirable but still good. The chair I was in was awfully uncomfortable, but the benches were suitable. For food, we ordered the crispy Brussels sprouts, Earl Grey tea bread, chicken tamales, berry French toast, mushroom bruschetta and fried oysters. The Brussels were good and perfectly cooked. The Earl Grey tea bread was good, but too sweet for me (not a sweets person). My friends ordered the chicken tamales and berry French toast, respectively, and enjoyed their meal. For me, the menu didn't have anything that caught my eye, so I made a meal of the small plates. I love mushrooms, but I felt that the mushrooms in the bruschetta needed to be chopped. Their meaty texture and large pieces made it less than desirable, even though the flavor was good. The oysters were well-cooked and served in an ample portion, but with cocktail sauce rather than aioli. When asked, she brought me the paprika aioli that's on the Brussels sprouts. Still, I think a lemon-and-herb aioli or a lemon-and-horseradish aioli would have been more appropriate for a fresh brightness to cut through the breading. It was almost a good meal, but oftentimes the devil is in the details.

Tupelo Honey is one of our mainstays when my wife and I travel back to her hometown of Greenville,…read moreSC. Yes, it is a small chain, but they deliver and consistently. I love that they constantly have new menu items and features so you can keep coming back again and again for something new. This last time, I ordered some sweet potato pancakes (that must have been a special because I can't find them on the menu now) and they were SO GOOD!!! They had nuts in them and they were not too sweet which was surprising in the best way. My wife got the classic chicken and waffles and loved them and our 3rd wheel got an omelet. He cleaned the plate so we know it was realllll good. We also got the fried okra as an app for the table and we were all big fans. The sauce took them over the top on flavor. We have never had an issue with the service. They've always been communicative and friendly, offering great suggestions on the menu. I love the inside of the restaurant. It fits the vibe of the menu very well. It feels very hometown southern which is perfect because it is my baby's hometown and we will continue going back every time we visit.

FRIED CHICKEN ALERT! I ended up in Greenville for a night and believe it or not I have never been…read morethere. I was hungry and didn't know what or where to eat, not like there is a lack of options, but did I want ramen or something more local in regional flare? I picked the second one. I ended up at Tupelo Honey because fresh southern fried chicken sounded amazing and this place wasn't going to break the bank. I guess this place is a chain but I didn't know this until I was eating. The staff were beyond friendly and attentive and they answered all of my questions about the food. The restaurant was super clean. I ended up ordering the half bird with original seasoning on it. The seasoning the put on it is a crystallized honey power and something else in it, it gives the chicken a nice sweet flavor but not overpowering. They also have a spicy version for you spice lovers. The half bird came with 4 pieces as one would expect, the crust was crispy and the chicken was awesome. I was eating the dark meat and couldn't get over how juicy it was. The real test as you all know is the breast, is that going to be dry? Nope, it was so moist and flavorful, it was a home run. I guess they brine their chicken for some good amount of time and it shows. My sides though I wish I would have gotten more adventurous, the meal came with two sides so I got a salad and the fried potatoes as a recommendation from the waitress. They were good but the mac n cheese looked better. Overall this place is great and I would go again. It's right downtown and the service was fast and friendly. Great place for some fried chicken .

I love this beautiful old hotel. The room was large and very comfortable. There were two large…read morewindows to people watch . The beds were amazingly comfortable . We were there on a Saturday night and people were everywhere. But once we stepped into the lobby there was a lovely piano bar . This hotel has a calm, refined feel to it. The bellman met us at the door, took our bags upstairs and even walked around to show us where to park. The only downside for me was that our room was just a little bit elevated from the street so we could hear a lot of the Saturday night fun that was going on. If you would prefer not to hear the street sounds you may want to request a room on a higher floor.

I stayed here recently for work in the area. Checking in went well, the lady was helpful. The…read moreroom she gave me was nice, everything was functional, but the bathroom was poorly designed and the whole room in from the previous "generation" of hotel room, so an update is needed.. hopefully in the next couple of years. The property was very impressively decorated for Christmas!! I loved how the large, two story Christmas Tree was in the main lobby and extended to the mezzanine level and they decorated it so very nicely! I also noticed the garland inside and wreaths outside. The whole property was nicely kept up to shape as well, so regardless of seasonal décor, I'm sure it's a beautiful place any time of year! This property has a restaurant onsite, Spoon Bread is what it's called. They also have the Piano Lounge. The Piano Lounge has a bar, which is a nice (and clearly popular) place to hang out and meet prior to leaving the property for dinner. Also a nice place to gather for that after dinner night cap with co-workers. Sleep quality was decent. HVAC in the room was nice and quiet... the worst part of the room was the bathroom, which I hated because you can't open the door and use the shower, because the door opens into the tub. They need to replace the door with barn style or pocket doors, like other properties have. Only other issue was the valet. I tipped a dollar on one drop off one day and the valet gave it back. I've never had that happen before. So, a dollar isn't enough and you prefer nothing at all? Noted! Overall, the stay was nice, but next time I'm in town, I'll try the AC across the street - It's looked way more festive outside and it's worth a try.
