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. A very safe place for trans people 🏳️‍⚧️Great music!! 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 🔜

Amazing food, amazing service! I’ve been to many vegan restaurants but this is by far the best! My boyfriend who is not vegan (nor had never been to a vegan resturant) was blown away. So many gluten free options as well! We pulled over after seeing the billboard on the highway. The owner was sooooo sweet, funny and kind! The service was amazing! The prices are great and the portions were generous. My boyfriend ordered the cheeseburger and was blown away by how good it tasted. We couldn’t believe it wasn’t meat! I had the mac-and-cheese and it tasted AMAZING! Seriously the best I’ve had. It’s been so long since I’ve had good Mac and cheese since I’ve been dairy-free for a few years. The cheesecake was SO GOOD! Truly so creamy and delicious. We also tried the strawberry basil drink and it was so yummy!! We ended up ordering more to go since it was just that good! We’ll be back and if you need a good vegan place, even if you’re not vegan, do yourself a favor and stop here!!
