Eliza's Vegan Café

South Carolina is now in my radar. Vegan food off I95? That’s just fantastic. I expected a bunch of vegan southern junk food but they have more than that. Gluten-free fries is nice to have in case you’re feeling like splurging. I love that she fries them in grapeseed oil! Several salads to choose from which is important! We will be sure to come by here again when we’re passing through the area. They’re right next to the gas station which has the restrooms, if you need them. Also, they are open on Sundays!!

This cafe is simply exceptional. Thank goodness for the sign on US151, or I would never have known to stop by. The last thing I expected in rural SC was an outstanding vegan meal. Without question, the best vegan burger I’ve ever had. The best vegan and gluten-free burger bun I’ve ever had! Soft! Beautiful-tasting! And the burger itself? Bloody incredible. The special sauce was the kicker. Everything about this burger was uber delicious. The fries were excellent as well - perfect size, perfect handcooked taste. The meal was so large I could have taken some back to the truck with me but I wanted to eat it all in the restaurant because I just loved being there. Wonderful, wise messages on the wall from the cafe’s namesake, Eliza Jenkins. Her granddaughter Markeyshi, the owner (pictured), and her talented cook gave me such a warm welcome and a restaurant experience that I will always remember. Thank you so much 🧡 Worth driving for from Montana. Worth travelling from Aotearoa NZ 🇳🇿 for, for that matter! Giving Eliza’s a 500-star recommendation. Hope I can return very 🔜
