I've been trying to catch this place since I noticed them when I first moved to Greenville. Unfortunately, my schedule and their hours never really aligned. I was driving by one evening and saw they were open and pulled over immediately.
When I walked up to the window, the lady working warmly greeted me and answered my menu questions. I ordered the shrimp basket with fries, which came with coleslaw. Within 10 minutes, my order was being served.
In true COVID fashion, I went to my car, sanitized my hands, and dug in. I always try to capture seafood at the peak of its freshness since styrofoam often causes the food to sweat and makes the breading soggy.
The shrimp were fresh, tender, and well-seasoned. The breading was minimal and crispy, and the inside was perfectly cooked. The fries were well seasoned and crispy as well. I was pleasantly surprised by the corn sticks and coleslaw. Both were fresh and clearly homemade and were the perfect complement to the meal.
I could not believe the level of quality and freshness that this meal delivered at only $8--what a steal! I immediately hit the group chat to let them know the gem I'd found.
They may have strange hours (Closed Sat-Monday with dinner only Tuesday-Thursday and Lunch and Dinner on Friday), but it is most certainly worth it. I will be frequenting the Gold Post on these days. I cannot wait to try their fried fish. read more
