Deb M.

Located in the ever changing West Greenville area, Bar Margaret is an eclectic, cool vibe. A small space that is welcoming. The entrance os like being in your grandma's living room, if your grandma is funky. A place to eat and drink. The bar is located in the back. Great smash burgers and fries. Be sure to check out the ceiling!

Damn Good Burger W/ Appetizer Fries
Jadon P.

I will say I've never been to this restaurant. It didn't have much food selection, but what I did have was actually surprisingly tasty. I got the Damn Good Burger With The Fries that came out as an appetizer! The only thing was it was kinda near a bad side of town, and you had to pay for parking. Probably wouldn't come back for that, but still was great food!!

Our first time trying this restaurant and it was amazing. It's a calm and welcoming atmosphere as soon as you walk through the door. The food and service was fantastic and to top it off, we went on a trivia night! We'll be back soon!

Southern Classic Burger
Daphne M.

From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. The atmosphere has this great funky, cool vibe that makes you feel instantly welcome. We were seated right away and the service throughout our visit was excellent--attentive and friendly without being overbearing. I ordered the Southern Classic burger (no onions) and it was perfectly cooked--juicy, flavorful, and just what I was craving. My husband had the Korean bites and they were a hit--packed with flavor and just the right amount of spice. We also shared an order of fries, which were fresh, hand-cut, and seriously some of the best fries we've had in a long time. To top it all off, we had a margarita that was absolutely delicious--bright, balanced, and super refreshing. Bar Margaret definitely delivered. We'll be back!

Stopped in for cocktails before dinner last night, and had quite an enjoyable time! I'm curious as to what this building once housed, as it retains a lot of its original character. The staff were terrific and the drinks hit the spot, I'll come back for sure.

Wife and I went here for the first time for dinner and drinks tonight. We have been missing out! Nice Ambiance, service is great, Dare I say that this place has THE best Smash burger/Burger that I've ever had! We will be back!

Fantastic little artsy spot on the quaint WestEnd of Downtown Greenville! Exceptional liquor selection and craft cocktail menu. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced! Highly recommend the smash burger The staff is very knowledgeable, attentive and offers great suggestions when you want to try everything.

It is found tucked behind the building with only a small, letter-sized paper sign marking the entrance. No flashy signage, no obvious storefront, which adds to the appeal if you're into that kind of hunt. Walking up to it late at night can be a little intimidating but it is well lit which I greatly appreciated! Once inside, the space is dimly lit and small, which makes for a genuinely intimate setting. I'd say it's good for a quieter, more conversational vibe rather than a loud night out. We went with the bartender's choice: pick a base liquor, then two words to describe what you're after. I went with vodka and "slightly sweet, refreshing," for $18. The bartender nailed the brief but it wasn't a drink I'd think about again or specifically order by name. Solid execution, forgettable flavor. Service was the real standout. Our bartender was excellent at walking us through the concept and translating vague requests into something that actually worked. That, plus the atmosphere, is enough to bring me back to see what else is on the menu since we made it there just in time for last call so I ended up only having one drink.

The name is written UP, in capital letters, which I appreciate as a safety measure. In lowercase,…read moresomeone could wander in off River Street assuming this was a ground-floor operation and be startled to find themselves on the eighth floor of an Embassy Suites. The capitals settle it. You are up. You are on the roof. Nobody is confused. I ordered There's a Lettuce Wrap!, exclamation point and all, which arrives as seven honey-soy glazed fried chicken wraps. Seven is an odd number to commit to, and I respected it. The chicken was crisp, the glaze landed somewhere between sweet and salty, and the lettuce made me feel like I'd ordered something light. I would eat it again tomorrow. The Reedy River and the Blue Ridge sit out past the railing doing their scenic work, and plenty of rooftops figure the skyline can cover for a mediocre kitchen. This one didn't need the cover. Mrs. W. was along, and UP earned her approval, which I never assume. She has standards and they are not up for negotiation, so watching a rooftop restaurant clear them felt like watching a long shot come in. The elevator ride back to the ground floor felt like a demotion.

Must do. If I ran this place I would stick to appetizers, flat breads, and cocktails. I would also make the sunset a bigger feature, more accessible (that side of the patio is as roped off and signs prevented you from even walking over to get a photo)....also the patio seating need to be smaller and more broken up. Anyhow view f the city is great and the staff is so kind, and helpful! And bartenders are good!

I have only one prior experience in playing mini golf, wasn't good at it, but I came to be supportive and shoot content. We didn't know what we were doing, which did impact the experience as we didn't get much direction after purchasing our tokens to play. We did ask a staff member since we were completely mini golf-illiterate who helped. My sister was under the impression that we would have all the holes to ourselves, but that was just us being inexperienced and not knowing how things worked. When we got towards the end, there were a lot more people playing, so we didn't finish because the area was packed. What I loved the most about the experience were all the different scenes or holes. My favorite was the Wizard of Oz because of my love for Wicked. I gave the business a five-star rating because the venue was very camera-worthy, colorful, inviting and clean. My lack of knowledge on how to play has nothing to do with the venue's offerings, staff, etc. If I had better skills, the experience would've been top tier.

I ordered the wings, hamburger egg rolls, and a Coke, while my daughter had a flatbread that was more like a delicious personal pizza. Everything was flavorful, generously portioned, and satisfying enough that I happily took leftovers home for later. The ordering process is simple--you place your order at the register, receive a table number, and the staff brings your food to you. One unique feature is their self-serve beer wall, where you can sample different beers and pay only for the amount you pour. Great food, a fun atmosphere, and a unique experience make this a place worth visiting.

The entire inside is basically covered in flowers hanging from the ceiling, and if you go at the right time, the natural light coming through the greenhouse-like area is absolutely beautiful. Then as it gets darker, the lighting becomes super moody and romantic. It's just such a VIBE. They also have a flower wall right at the entrance that is perfect for pictures. I went here for my birthday this year and took approximately a million pictures. I think the staff may have started getting a little annoyed after we stood there for 30 minutes taking photos, but we weren't in anyone's way, so I'm counting it as fine. The service was also amazing. Our server was super friendly, and once they found out it was my birthday, they offered me a complimentary dessert of my choice. I picked the chocolate cake, but unfortunately, nobody at the table was really a fan. It was VERY rich and had a really strong flavor, so I personally wouldn't order that again. For dinner and ordered the salmon, which was delicious. I ate pretty much the entire thing! There were definitely mixed reviews on the food at our table, though. I wouldn't necessarily say this is a place where the food is going to knock your socks off or make you say, "OH MY GOD, you have to try this." But if you're looking for an amazing atmosphere, gorgeous photos, great service, good drinks, and an overall fun night out, this is absolutely the place. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 solely because the food wasn't quite at the "you HAVE to eat this" level for me. But for the vibe alone? 10/10.
