Welcome to Greenville. I hope everyone turns out to support your new venture. There are a lot of people here who really feel strongly about family owned establishments over the national chain type.

Best of luck to you and your family, I'm sure you will do well. I'll bring my family by later this fall.

It looks like the old Jack-in-the-box on Congaree rd is also going to be a Clock diner. At least that's what the "coming soon" sign says hanging on the building.

Seems the old East Towne Furniture store on Wade Hampton in Taylors is going to become another thrift store...Salvation Army Family store, sign is up and fixtures are loaded in the store.

The Berea community does not have many local dining options. I am very excited the diner will fill a void and provide great food.

Service and food were both very good and the owner and staff were personally engaged, to make sure the meal was a positive experience. They are still in the process of getting their wine and beer licenses, but expect to have it quickly. Well worth the visit, well worth the coin.

Thanks for the review! My family is a huge italian fans so I'm excited about this place. Gonna try it out soon!

Thank you very much, I actually live in Greenville and have lived in the Berea area all my life. My family is good friends with former owners of the Apollo so were hoping to keep a lot of the old customer base. Look forward to seeing you this fall!!

Has there been an ownership change at the WH store? Either way good to know he is going to be at Congaree. Very nice people.

Golden Chicken on Pelham is now open. Man that is some tasty chicken, probably the best chicken strips Ive had from a fast food joint. I would love to see them come down to five forks and open a location. I would so ditch KFC and Zaxbys for them. If you haven't tried them yet go.

Good to hear a good review. They are a smaller chain based out of Texas. Always pleased to see a good new concept enter the market. I will definitely be checking them out. But I still want to see a Popeyes as well.

Excited to see this new Clock coming to Congaree. Always enjoy a good local burger joint. I wonder will they serve breakfast?
