We decided to sit outside and try this place out. It was expensive for what we had My husband didn't know there was a $2 00 charge to have a croissant. The girl at the counter asked what kind of bread and gave him the choices. She should have said there would be an extra charge, he didn't know. We sat waiting for a long time. The girl comes out to ask how the food was and we hadn't even eaten yet! She went back in and shortly after the food came out First my husband wanted sausage and he got bacon and it was all over done. And the food was cold. We sat a few min and the girl came back out and he told her , then an older lady came out, she was not friendly at all. Had an attitude the whole time he was asking to see first why we were charged so much. She said she had to go back in and find the receipt! Came back with a couple of dollars and literally threw it on the table. He then proceeded to let her know that he ordered sausage and got bacon! And she was ready to take it off his plate with her bare hands!!! He said it's cold now, she was not happy and grabbed the plate to come back with his breakfast remade . By then I had been done waiting for him to eat It was Just a horrible experience! I had asked if she was the owner she said no then said her son owned the place. If it was my mother dealing with customers like this I'd have to replace her before she ruined my business all together. Sadly since then I've heard other stories that were not the only one who has problems eating there. We wouldn't go back not even for a 2nd chance.

Both were tasty and hit the spot. The chicken salad sandwich was the standout for us--simple, fresh, and really satisfying. The frittata had great flavor, but it was a little on the dry side, so I'd probably pair it with something extra next time or try another option. All in all, a solid place to grab a bite in Saluda, and we'd happily come back--especially for that chicken salad sandwich.

Flying Fox Coffee turned out to be a decent spot to enjoy a beverage while we passed the time…read morebetween hotel check-out and a departure flight at the airport. Surprisingly there were three coffee spots on the same street, if not more. One was unexpectedly closed during normal operating hours. The other was not very clean, in an unappetizing way, and the "kitchen was closed", causing half of the menu to be unavailable. Thankfully, upon entering Flying Fox, the vibe was bustling with customers. We felt we were in the right place. The first thing I noticed was the unique flavor combinations of their signature lattes. I ordered one with rose flavoring. Others in my party ordered an iced Chai latte and an iced vanilla matcha. The cashier was patient, friendly and kind, especially since we were first-timers and the menu was quite interesting. We sat ourselves and the barista brought our drinks to us. That was a nice touch. Truthfully, I was a bit worried that the rose flavoring in my iced latte might be overpowering, but as it turned out, I couldn't taste it at all. That was mildly disappointing but at the same time, I was relieved that the latte wasn't overwhelmingly floral. As a side note, I do wish our seating area could have been a bit cleaner. There were dust bunnies and crumbs.
