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 🔜

This was our first time eating at a Firehouse Subs. Really cool place a lot of firefighter memorabilia, and they dressed up the inside real nice. There's about 12 to 15 different subs you can get, and then you can custom make whatever you would like. For bread options, they have white wheat and gluten-free. I opted for the firefighter sub, which had roast beef ham and turkey on it, and I got it on wheat. It was absolutely one of the best subs I've ever had. They have a pepper sauce that is like a mild barbecue sauce, and you have got to try it. It was phenomenal. My wife opted for the turkey club, and she said hers was excellent as well. I would definitely stop into one of these again if I was near it

As a person with highly symtomatic Celiac disease this was a great experience for me. Most things can be modified for gluten free. EXCELLENT egg drop soup!

This is an update. I went here last night and there was a bunch of younger people working. One was super friendly but kept screwing up our order. The girl who prepared the subs was a bit rude, didn't take my gluten allergy seriously, and just had an overall attitude that she could careless if she were there. The place was also not kept clean as customers came and went. They were also behind on online orders. I hope this changes because I like this location.

We had a wonderful breakfast here. Traveling through for the holidays and read the great reviews, which are all true, and decided to experience it for ourselves. Highly recommend the platter! And if you are gluten intolerant, as I am, the owner offered some nice options. The owner is just lovely, and so welcoming! Highly recommend this place!!!
