City Tavern - Greenville: Welcoming Spot for Fresh, Flavorful Food & Exceptional Service

Great food and excellent service. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal. I dined in and had a wonderful experience overall

My wife and I dined at City Tavern about a month ago while visiting Greenville to attend a women’s college volleyball game our daughter was playing in. We stopped in for lunch. My wife originally ordered the fried mushrooms, but a few minutes later, our server informed us that, unfortunately, they were out of them. She selected a replacement dish instead. About 15 minutes later, the server returned and told us that their chef, a genuinely kind and thoughtful person, felt it was unacceptable to be out of something as simple as mushrooms. So, he actually went down the road to Publix, bought fresh mushrooms, and personally prepared the dish for her. They brought the mushrooms to our table, freshly made and on the house, since she had already received the alternate dish. We were blown away by this level of care and service. What made this gesture even more meaningful was that my wife had just completed cancer treatment a few weeks earlier. Her taste buds were still recovering, and fried mushrooms were one of the few foods she could actually taste and enjoy. Their kindness meant a great deal to us. I ordered a salad topped with salmon, and it was equally excellent... fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We highly recommend City Tavern, and we’ll definitely return the next time we’re in the Greenville, SC area.

I haven’t been in a long time & we came last night to celebrate my birthday and it was a good experience. The food was good! & the slushies were also good! Our guy gave me a drink on the house which was super sweet! Would return!

We wanted to try the new and improved place so a group of 6 of us went out for drinks and dinner. Other than how loud it was in the place, it was a great night! First of all, the service was great. Our server told us that all the servers work together so no need to just ask for her if we needed anything. In fact, three different ones came by to ask if there was anything else we needed throughout the evening. No idea that they had a happy hour! Although the drinks weren't discounted, appetizers were buy one get one free until 7pm. The stuffed mushrooms were the best I've ever had. The mini ham and Hawaiian rolls were delicious. Everyone was happy with their meals, too. I had the Big BLT. The egg on it was a bit odd, but it was very good. One person raved about their Cajun Philly cheesesteak. The wedge salad was huge. Overall, everyone was satisfied. Although the music was loud and a bit heavy metal for my tastes, we still really enjoyed ourselves. We will likely be returning!

Really great place. Was in town for the night and we just picked the first place we saw to have a drink and appetizer. Turned out to be a fantastic option. $4 beers and bogo appetizers on a Friday night is something you don’t see often. The ham sandwiches and buffalo chicken dip were next level. Our server was great as well. Will be visiting again the next time I’m in town.
