Harvest salad & Chicken Bacon Pepperjack
Urvashi P.

Loved the cozy feel to this great place. Everyone loved their orders and everything was fresh.

Chicken tortilla soup - special soup of the day

Cafe West was wonderful. I look forward to coming back. I had the club on sourdough with a side of the chicken tortilla soup. It was all delicious. The staff were attentive and friendly. They have plenty of seating inside and two small tables outside. The street parking out front is 1hr parking and I was able to easily get a spot. Next visit I'd love to try a milkshake or the raspberry lemonade.

Loved Cafe West. Seems like a small cafe that is beloved by the locals, saw a lot of folks in suits swinging by on their lunch breaks for a bite and I could see why. It's the type of spots where you order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. Server at the counter was a young girl who gave some good recommendations on the food, you could tell she was passionate about the place. I opted for the Turkey, Bacon and Havarti sandwich, swapped out the apples and added some spicy mayo. Also had to get a cup of the chicken and wild rice soup, very flavorful and creamy, almost thought it was a cheddar broccoli soup when it first came out. The sandwich itself was incredible, perfectly toasted bread and a put together combination of turkey and bacon, easily one of the best things I ate during my short stay in Greenville. My partner got the Vermont Cheddar Sandwich which she also loved. Small cafe, but they do have tables and some high tops for seating, find one shouldn't be difficult. Will absolutely be back when I return to Greenville.

Simple little cafe with really good food. Our sandwiches were flavorful and well done. Grilled and prepared nicely. We got fruit salad and hummus w veggies on the side. They have Homeade milkshakes w fun flavors like key lime pie and salted caramel pretzel and specialty lattes too. I'd def recommend this place. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Good sandwich, friendly service.  Simple but good.  Thanks!

First time here. Friendly, good sandwich, simple but good. Good music too.Thanks! I'll be back.

Reviews are largely positive. Many highlight the sandwiches and breakfast options on sourdough, excellent coffee and drinks, and a cozy, relaxed atmosphere. Staff are generally friendly and helpful.

North St. based on the 4.5 Yelp rating. What's going on here? Are these reviews being artificially boosted? I genuinely had to look at my phone to make sure I'd come to the right place based on expectations vs. reality. We ordered the biscuits and gravy with eggs and chicken. The chicken was a had an odd mushy/spongy texture -- a couple of tenders unceremoniously dropped on the plate and nothing like in any of the marketing photos -- and the gravy was not very flavorful at all. Someone else in my party got the chicken and waffles -- their chicken was better than mine, but still completely unimpressive. I also have to say, unfortunately, that the staff is not on their game. We had communication problems with the person taking our order, and the self-bussing area was overflowing with dirty forks and plates. This is a corporate slop establishment, and Greenville has at least a dozen breakfast spots, especially locally-owned ones, that are miles better than this. I regret not looking a bit harder for a better local spot.

They offer a wide variety of menu items and can make gluten-free accommodations for every dish, which is usually a rarity. We met the owner, Emily, and she was the sweetest--you could truly see her passion for what she does! She highly recommended the gluten-free sourdough, which is made by her friend in New Orleans. As someone who is gluten-sensitive, I'm usually cautious about gluten-free bread. However, it was amazing!!! I ordered the Farmhouse Fresh Plate, which was simple but delicious. My boyfriend tried the Blackened Chicken Caesar Wrap with a gluten-free tortilla, and it was also great! We loved our experience and definitely plan to come back while we're visiting Greenville!

This cafe embodies the meaning of supporting local with attention to detail and interesting menu. The menu as shown rotates every 2 weeks with a few items swapped out each time. The rotating menu also includes a seasonal drink menu and a soup of the day. The prices itself are similar to other downtown take-out options ($10-20 food | $4-7 coffee). The food itself it's simply great. Emily's has a way of making your standard breakfast/lunch items with quality ingredients and portions on the small-medium side. The Manchego and Fig Jam Grilled Cheese is something that I don't know where else to get in Greenville, but MAN was it great! I recommend trying that because it's one of the reasons why I'll be retuning again. Asides the food, this curated market screams quality. This cafe has an assortment of items from store merchandise, to-go food and drink options, and numerous miscellaneous items like bamboo toilet paper! I will be uploading the new menus as I continue to visit this cafe, but I'm looking forward to see what becomes of this place going forward. If nothing else, I'm being for real about that Manchego and Fig Jam Grilled Cheese.

Looking for a local coffee shop in Greenville led me to Chestnut Coffee House & Local Market. It's…read morelocated in an almost hidden residential area which has a handful of offices and retail businesses, so not the type of place you'd find unless you were specifically looking for it. They have multiple doors to enter which was confusing, so I had to double back to the counter where you actually had to order drinks. The interiors are spacious. inviting, and modern, as evidenced by the nearly 30 people I saw camped out at tables working away at their laptops or holding video conferences. They also have a nice outdoor patio space as well. I went with an order of a half sweet iced mocha latte. There's an additional charge for any added flavoring, so the drink set me back over $7 (before any tip). While I don't mind paying a bit extra for a great drink, I felt it was very average in taste and probably would have received better from a chain coffee shop. Service from the staff was friendly. I felt this is one of those more modern workspace coffee shops that's lost in a bit of an identity crisis with some market and prepared food items. Perhaps I'm just not their target clientele given they seem to have a loyal following, but felt Chestnut Coffee House was a pretty average and slightly overpriced drink experience for me.
