I also saw a Capri's on Hwy. 9 in Boiling Springs. I wonder if it is affiliated with the original owners and menu from Greenville?

Not sure about Boiling Springs. Building looks fairly new and logo a little different.

I know the older style Capri's were franchised in the 70's. I believe Spartanburg had one in the Camelot Center next to former Piggly Wiggly back in the 80's -90's and may have had one of the older buildings somewhere too. There is a Capri's Pizzeria in Berea too. Not sure if that was ever affiliated. I know the building style in Greenwood and the signage haven't changed much over the decades.

Someone, somewhere once told me that one in BS was an offshoot of the family. No idea if that's the case or not.

Papas and Beer sign on the old Capris in Mauldin. Has been under construction for quite awhile.

Mutts in Mauldin has been open. Looks like they have modified their menu during social distancing.

OK I found this article from 1990. The one in the Reidville Rd - Camelot Center opened in 1990. I could swear it was open in the late 80's when I worked in that area. Oh well. The original Poppy Square location relocated in the early 90's. Never ate at that location but they were all so dark and candlelit and yes always a great date place. Many took their prom dates there over the years.

Should you wish to have some Capri's favorite menu items, there is a restaurant called Pressley's at Edisto that features a few Capri's dishes. The owner of the Greenwood Capri's also owns this Edisto restaurant.

As is Crepe du Jour in downtown.. That one was.. a questionable concept IMO.


Mauldin Deli.. Now, it seems to me that's been there a long time? Very long time?


The Mauldin Family Kitchen.. Hate it for them. I think that was a small family business.. I had never eaten there, but several people at work had and said it was quite good.

When I worked I would often stop at Mauldin Deli. Sorry to see them close shop but its been a long time since I ate there.

Mauldin Family Kitchen was a family business. The owner, proprietor lives in Mauldin.
