SOUTHERN STAPLES

From diners to elegant sit-down restaurants, some of Spartanburg's local hotspots have been around for so long, they've become legendary.

Save Room for Legendary Taste

These long-standing eateries are as much a part of Spartanburg culture and history as the textile industry, peaches, and BMW. If you don’t try at least one of these landmarks during your time here, technically you can’t say you’ve visited Spartanburg.
