Finishing a weekend open house in Greenville often means one thing: it's time for brunch.
Between the Trees,
STIR, and
UP on the Roof are three of our favorite spots near downtown and Falls Park at the Reedy. Each one offers something different, from riverside views to rooftop cocktails. Here's a closer look at all three, plus a few tips for planning your stop.
Key Takeaways
- Learn where to find an elevated brunch near Falls Park at the Reedy.
- Discover a scratch made menu with a patio worth lingering on.
- Find out where rooftop views pair with a strong brunch cocktail.
- Understand how to build your own brunch route after a weekend of showings.
Between The Trees For An Elevated Way To Start The Afternoon
Between the Trees sits in downtown Greenville overlooking Falls Park and its waterfall, and the setting alone makes it worth the stop after a showing. The kitchen leans into classical technique with a modern, shareable approach that fits a relaxed Sunday.
What To Order Here
The brunch menu balances light shareables with heartier plates for a longer table.
- Avocado toast or whipped goat cheese with apple butter, candied pecans, and local sourdough.
- Shrimp and grits made with Jimmy Red grits, Griffin cheddar, and chorizo gravy.
- Grilled skirt steak with charred baby gem lettuce, breakfast potatoes, and chimichurri.
- A wine list suited to a slower, sit down brunch.
Between the Trees works well for a client debrief or a slower conversation after a busy morning of showings. The Falls Park view makes it feel like a proper reward after a full morning of touring homes.
STIR For Scratch Made Brunch And A Patio Worth Lingering On
STIR brings a from scratch kitchen and a dog friendly patio to the Sunday brunch lineup, running from 10 AM to 2:30 PM. It is an easy stop if your open house wrapped up on the earlier side.
What To Order Here
The menu covers brunch classics alongside a few standout specialties.
- Oysters and a raw bar for anyone who wants to start light.
- Lobster crab cake breakfast with caper remoulade, two eggs, and breakfast potatoes.
- The Baja omelette with peppers, onions, pico de gallo, and charred salsa.
- A double mimosa or a draft espresso martini to close out the morning.
STIR's patio makes it a comfortable spot to bring along a client who is still deciding between a few listings. The from scratch kitchen tends to win people over even before the second round of coffee.
UP On The Roof For Skyline Views With Your Mimosa
UP on the Roof trades a park view for a rooftop perspective on downtown Greenville, the Reedy River, and the Blue Ridge Mountains beyond it. Brunch runs 11 AM to 3 PM on Saturday and Sunday, giving a little more flexibility for a later start.
What To Order Here
The menu leans playful without losing sight of craft.
- French toast soaked in custard with chocolate cream and caramel latte drizzle.
- Fried chicken thigh with a sunny side egg, pimento cheese, and a biscuit.
- Crab cakes with fried eggs, sauteed peppers and onions, and remoulade.
- A strawberry thyme cocktail or a classic bloody mary.
The rooftop setting makes UP on the Roof a strong choice when you want brunch to double as a small celebration. A closing, a signed offer, or a simple, flavor-packed Sunday all earn a toast here.
Planning Your Own Post Open House Brunch Route
Between these three spots, there is a brunch option for almost any timeline and mood after a weekend of showings. A little planning helps you avoid a wait, especially on a busy Sunday downtown.
A Few Tips For Timing It Right
These small details make the difference between a smooth brunch and a long wait.
- Call ahead on a busy Sunday, especially for larger groups.
- Aim for an early seating if your open house wraps before noon.
- Save the rooftop for a later, more relaxed afternoon.
- Keep a second choice in mind in case your first pick has a wait.
However your Sunday unfolds, Greenville's brunch scene makes it easy to end the day on a good note.
