Love love love!! Everything here is so fresh and delicious. The Clemson Turkey Cobb Salad is something I get often. And the kids love playing with all the random toys in the fenced area 💕

This place is epic! First of all, it gets busy so be prepared! Great for families and dogs and easy access to the trails if you’re on swamp rabbit. They have a coffee shop that also serves beer and wine, a grocery store with epic food and amazing brekkie sammie. Staff is super friendly and there is tons of outdoor seating.

I went here for a quick stroll on the trail with my family. We decided afterwards to grab some coffee and then some food as well for lunch. First of all the coffee I had was probably one of the worst cups of coffee I’ve ever tasted. I got the salted maple latte… I wasn’t expecting the salted part in the name to be the only thing I was going to be able to taste. The coffee tasted more like a warm cup of ocean water. I ended up throwing away the coffee cause it was too much to drink. We then walked around for a bit more and decided to get some lunch as well. Me and my wife decided to share the Reuben sandwich. The best part about the whole sandwich was the bread. There was practically no meat on the sandwich at all, and the meat that was on there was ALL FAT. it was one big, slimy, chewy pile of fat. When I took apart the sandwich I was actually shocked to see what was on there and decided to take a picture of it. Needless to say, we ended up not finishing the sandwich either. So after having spent 13 dollars on two cups of coffee that tasted like salt water and throwing those away, to then spending 16 DOLLARS!!! On a single sandwich (that came with no sides by the way…) that I ended up throwing away as well!! Me and my family were not impressed to say the least. We enjoyed the trail but will definitely not be back for any of the food options 🤦‍♂️

Swamp Rabbit Café & Grocery is easily one of the best spots in Greenville. The place has such a chill, local vibe — it feels like a small community where everyone’s just enjoying good food, good coffee, and good energy. There’s a pumpkin patch, a kids’ park, and plenty of outdoor seating, which makes it perfect for families or just hanging out with friends. The grocery section is next level fresh meats, handmade pasta, salads, pastries, local produce, and even a liquor section. Everything is organic, fresh, and locally sourced, and you can tell the quality in every detail. What I really like is how they’ve separated the coffee area from the grocery. Even though there’s usually a long line for the grocery side, if you just want to grab a coffee and relax, you can head straight to the café section it’s way more chill and quick. The service is great, everyone’s friendly, and the whole atmosphere just feels right. Everything was perfect from the drinks to the vibe. This place truly deserves way more recognition. Definitely a 10/10 and a must-visit in Greenville.

Such a great local spot with so much to offer — food, coffee, smoothies, and more! We tried the apple caramel coffee with cold foam, it was a nice coffee overall, though I didn’t get much of the apple or caramel flavor I was expecting. Their stecca bread was absolutely amazing (and if it’s your first time, you get a free one!). We brought it home and made the best grilled cheese sandwiches. The chocolate chess pie was the star of the day — rich chocolate flavor, perfect texture, and the most delicious crust. We also tried their apple cider, which was so refreshing after a walk back from the park. Highly recommend this awesome spot — great food, great service, and a really welcoming atmosphere!
