    Floridan French Toast, Berry Booster drink, scrambled eggs & regular bacon
    Krystal G.

    We came in on a Sunday before our tournament. At 11am it was pretty busy. There were only 2 of us so we were able to catch seating at the bar area. Our waitress greeted almost immediately, took our drinks & our food order. Always be ready in a busy place! The 1st time I have had the Floridan French Toast, WOW! I absolutely recommend it 100%! The Berry Booster drink also tasted nice & refreshing. Everything was pretty good with a good experience. The staff was all super friendly & our waitress was top notch! My daughter also wants to give a shout out to the kitchen for a wonderful meal!

    This is our favorite place to go for breakfast on the weekend! Erica is always a pleasure! The food is delicious and we always leave happy and satisfied!

    Avocado toast

    Super disappointed in the avocado toast. It's a soggy mess and hard to eat, absolutely way too much avocado.

    Came for lunch with my mom and they had decent food. Atmosphere was nice and staff was very nice and attentive. This place makes everything with healthy ingredients. My burrito was tasty but had some ingredients in it that didn't mesh well and potatoes were very good. Overall it was okay and may try again for other items

    Got in around noon on a Saturday it wasn't too busy. A hostess held open the door for us and we got seated immediately at a table for 2. Michaela, our server, was nice and brought our food out in a timely manner. The interior is nice and clean and so were the bathrooms. There's about 4 I think and they're all gender neutral single rooms. Our food was good about usual for a breakfast place although our potatoes could've been cooked a little longer and it had a smokey aroma but it wasn't a problem. We ate all our food without any food to go. Coffee was $3.99. $7.49 for a singular carrot cake pancake and $13 for the farmhouse hash. A bit pricey for one pancake but it was tasty. Nice little addition for Cherry Rd. I can see it doing very well here.

    Delicious Coffee!

    On a travel day for us and while checking out what was around us for dinner saw that First Watch was just a half mile from us...fantastic way to start the new day off! We got there are were expecting a long wait as they are always busy...to our surprise we were just one of like five tables...found they are brand new to the area and are a best kept secret! Service, Food and location were excellent! Hurry before they are discovered!

    Our server was nice. Service was a bit slow but no big deal. Food was very mediocre. Something to note on their seasonal coffee drinks: Do NOT get the mint mocha. It tasted like straight mint syrup. The caramel one was fine just a bit too sweet (would have been so good with less honey).

    Excellent service today & had a nice big booth to myself. Food was good but thinking about a classic breakfast dish next go-round.

    Omelette and salad

    Great food & fast service. Our waitress was extremely nice. This was our first visit but we will be back!

After swapping presents we went down to the restaurant for dinner. It was pretty packed and we were concerned we wouldn't get a table, but the staff allowed us to move chairs around to make room for the 11 of us. Everything about our experience was great. Toya and Brandon were our servers and both of them are excellent at their jobs. They were friendly, engaging, fast and efficient. Somehow with a packed dining room and only a few servers on the floor they were able to keep us all happy and well served throughout the meal. Toya even went the extra mile and had the kitchen send out my daughter's and young nieces' meals first so they wouldn't have to wait or become impatient. The kitchen worked smoothly with us to provide delicious meals for a few members of our family who have gluten and dairy intolerance. All of the food was well prepared and tasty. My sister tried a margarita and said Toya mixed it to perfection. I also wanted to note how clean the dining room (and all of the hotel) is. This is my second stay at the Cambria and it won't be my last. This kind of overall excellence in service and quality deserves repeat business. My sister lives fairly close to Rock Hill and said she'll be back as well to dine at the restaurant. Thanks again for a wonderful experience at the Cambria Hotel/Loom Restaurant! Can't wait to visit again.

Lots of awesome pub decor and the place was extremely clean. McKenzie was our waitress! She was super friendly and efficient. We started with some fried pickles and buffalo wings. Both items came out HOT, fresh, and crispy! They were soooo good! For our entrees, my husband ordered the fisherman's platter and I got the ruben sandwich with sweet potato fries. Again, both dishes were HOT, fresh and cooked to perfection.

We were…read moreexcited about this location due to the style of food available to us and the hope of a pleasant atmosphere. Upon entering, they said they did not have indoor seating to accommodate our large party and we could proceed outside. This was acceptable for us and we followed the hostess out and she placed menus on a table directly in the harsh sunlight and one side was completely soaked with water. We opted to move a few tables over to some that were in the shade and dry. The hostess came out and informed us we had to move and when we politely mentioned that the tables were in the sun, she deadpanned and said, "yeah, so the sun will move." and her reason for us not being able to sit at the tables in the shade was because "the tables are old and we don't serve at them" which doesn't make sense given that they're in the patio. The two girls were incredibly rude and clearly made a point that we were not welcome in the establishment as a large party. (10 adults and 2 children) One of our guests said we would go somewhere else then and the darker haired girl said that would be ideal and we were not welcome at the establishment. We promptly left. This is incredibly unacceptable. We did not feel welcome the moment we entered this establishment and the staff made it incredibly clear we weren't welcome. This is disheartening from a small business, especially one we were so excited to support. Hopefully other large parties have a better experience but the staff is not our favorite. Would've loved the chance to try the food. Unfortunate circumstance.

I am usually surprised at how easy it is to get a seat. It's a big space which helps but the food is so good. I always anticipate having to wait. Unless there is a sporting event next-door, I can usually find a place at the bar or get a table. If you sit at the bar, hope Mariah is there. She makes a good cocktail and she's incredibly sweet. Food is consistent and very good. Their smoked wings must be the best in town get the lemon pepper rub in the house made blue cheese dip. You won't regret it. The blackened chicken Caesar salad is also a huge hit. I highly recommend this place. Enjoy!

We were a little confused as to how to enter the restaurant, but I chalk that up to being tired. The space is wide open and airy, with large windows and skylights. The restaurant was nice and clean, save for something that was splashed on the wall in our booth - but it's a restaurant. There's going to be little picky things here and there and I'm sure it was wiped down by the end of the day! Our hostess was also our server and she was so knowledgeable about the menu. I took her suggestions at every turn and did not regret it. We started off with the Bang Bang Brussels Sprouts app and let me tell you - I could've eaten that as my entire meal. They are SO delicious and I'll be dreaming of them until I can return to Rock Hill. Holy cow, they were good - crispy on the outside, loaded with flavor and just enough spice to give the sweetness a little bite. So good. My husband had the country fried steak and he said it was very good. Not the best he's ever had, he said, but good enough. He wished there'd been more steak and less crust, but the flavor was right on. They were out of the salt and pepper flounder, so I changed my order to the ranch chicken. Ummmm....excuse me. Who says not to order chicken breasts at restaurants? The portion size is SO generous and the chicken is SO DELICIOUS that I, the girl who rarely bothers to take leftovers, boxed up what was left and brought it back to my hotel and ate it as a midnight snack. The grilled zucchini served on the side of it was delicious. If I ever get back, I'll ask if I can skip the potatoes in favor of more of that zucchini! We didn't really have room for dessert, but when we heard about the warm banana pudding, we were curious. DO NOT SKIP THIS DESSERT. If you're a banana pudding fan, this will blow your mind. Absolutely incredible! It's both warm and cool at the same time, caramelized bananas and a torched meringue topping were bowl-licking delicious. All in all, this was a fantastic experience and I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

On the menu for today I chose the Blue plate Special ($23) OG, bacon wrapped meatloaf, swirl potatoes, veggie du jour, stewed, collards, steakhouse, vinaigrette, cilantro Crema. The dish was Tender medallions of meatloaf, wrapped in savory bacon. Topped with a steakhouse vinaigrette, tangy, and savory, which had an amazing flavor by itself, I just wish it added more to the main. Which was slightly bland. Unfortunately, this cilantro Crema had no hints of cilantro. The actual star of the show is the collard greens. The Collard greens has a subtle kick, which is amazing and flavorful, and gives that little extra punch. Hand slammed fries ($5) Parmesan - rosemary dusted, roasted tomato malt vinaigrette. Tasty especially with their house made ketchup, but unfortunately, the fries were a little on the soggy side. And a Blake's cider (5). crisp and refreshing. Perfect for a southern Carolina afternoon. Overall, food was delicious, but could use just a hint of attentions to flavor. I would definitely recommend you give Kounter a try. I would love to come back here again and try some more of their menu. Follow me on Yelp and Instagram @noodlesoupr as I travel the world in search of delicious food encounters.
