I used to like Paw's Diner in Clemson - nothing fancy but a good local inexpensive bacon-and-eggs place. Haven't found much in the way of breakfast in Greenville - the one bagel shop I liked, Baker's Bagels, closed down a few months ago.

Try Greenfield's Bagels & Deli in the Verdae Village shopping center. It is very good and has been popular for many years now. |

Wow, great feedback. Apparently, a lot of breakfast eaters on this thread. It's sounding like Stax's original and Tommy's Ham House are a definite visit. Has anyone tried Peggy's Diner 2 off Rutherford? Ckeegan, I like your idea of "Triple D Upstate." Go for it!

There's also Denny's too. Their corporate headquarters is in Spartanburg so it helps the local economy.  |

Perkins has really good breakfast too, but again, it might not be "mom and pop" enough for the original poster. I don't see how the food at one of the local places would be any better than some of the above-mentioned places like Mimi's or Perkins, though.

No one has mentioned Gene's yet. Downtown opposite the library. The inside is still in it's 50's/60's decor. Really good biscuits and gravy. Typical Southern, artery clogging breakfast.
The waitresses will call you "honey" or "hun". |

I mentioned Gene's, in post #8 of this thread:

It was sort of buried in there, though.  |

I've heard great things about Grits and Groceries, out in the middle of nowhere near Belton. I really need to make the drive out there sometime.
