Whataburger confirms first Asheville restaurant. Here's when it opens

ASHEVILLE - After rumors and wishful thinking, Whataburger fans can rest assured that the burger chain is indeed planning to open its first Asheville restaurant. Whataburger has confirmed that construction will begin soon at 275 Smokey Park Highway, Suite 400, in West Asheville. The Citizen Times reported last spring that the fast-food restaurant planned to open in the city after submitting permits. Whataburger is tentatively slated to open in Spring 2027. Whataburger, founded in Texas, continues to expand in North Carolina, including two locations in Hickory, about an hour east of Asheville, which opened earlier this year. Since 1950, Whataburger has become a Southern staple, popular for its original smash burger-style hamburgers and its Fancy and Spicy Ketchup, made with a "secret sauce." More details will follow as the Asheville project nears its opening. In the meantime, check out the restaurant's menu at whataburger.com . In October, another national chain was introduced in the city: 7 Brew Coffee. The drive-thru beverage destination is at 167 Smokey Park Highway in West Asheville, at the former site of Hungry Bear Cafe .

Beloved BBQ joint, once a downtown Greenville staple, reopens in a new location

It took two and a half years, but a once popular downtown Greenville barbecue restaurant is reopening on Greenville County’s Eastside Friday, Nov. 6. “OH, HAPPY FREAKING DAY!!!” the owner of Smoke on the Water shouted on Facebook. “GREENVILLE, THE WAIT IS FINALLY OVER!” They even counted the days since they closed the restaurant in Greenville’s West End close to Falls Park and the Reedy River, where they had operated for 20 years. 957 days. “Countless delays. A whole lot of hard work. And more patience from y’all than we could have ever asked for,” the post announcing the opening said. The new location is 64 Beacon Drive, next door to California Dreaming, in an area rife with restaurants along Interstate 85. The restaurant was started by Frances “Chicken” Lea, her husband Hurdle Lea and Mike Shuler. The Leas were well-known Greenville entrepreneurs.

Rotten meat, fruit flies lead to 3 ‘C' grades at Greenville Co. restaurants

Fruit flies, food debris and spoiled meat were among the violations inspectors cited in giving four Greenville County restaurants failing grades in October. In all, the South Carolina Department of Agriculture made 387 routine and follow-up inspections for the month. A total of 358 received A scores and 24 B. C is the worst grade the Agriculture Department gives. If a restaurant scores below 70 it has to close until it is reinspected. La Cuchara on Haywood Road in Greenville was inspected on Oct. 27 and given a 72, a C. There was no employee on shift with a food handler’s certification, the report said. The inspector saw multiple employees fail to wash hands when changing gloves when changing tasks from handling dirty dishes to food prep. There were bags of frozen fruit pulps and utensils in the handsink at the server area. An open case of crab in the freezer had ice build-up directly on the product. Eggs and raw beef were stored above produce in the cooler. Various foods were at improper temperature including fried chicken wings, cooked rice, marinara, sweetened condensed milk, and fish.

This Upstate South Carolina Diner Is Known For One Standout Dish That Keeps Locals Coming Back

The biscuits at this little counter-service diner are made from scratch. They’re also big enough to make a grown adult rethink the word snack. That alone would earn a spot on my list. Then I learned the same kitchen turns out cheeseburger plates, hamburger steak, and blended soft serve treats called cyclones.

This Charming South Carolina Spot Is Part Café, Part Grocery Store—And Worth The Trip

When I opened the brown paper bag it smelled like popcorn. The freshly baked bread inside had a delicious aroma of oil, salt and just a hint of sweet. After taking a bite into the perfectly crisp crust and soft doughy middle, I understood why it was such a popular staple at the Swamp Rabbit Café & Grocery in Greenville, South Carolina. The success of this stecca bread, named after the Italian word for “stick”, is a story of serendipity. “We were just slow one day, and so I was like, ‘Oh, I’ll make my stecca bread,’” co-owner Mary Walsh told Southern Living. She gave some to one of their regulars, and he couldn’t stop raving about it. Now the company bakes stecca bread daily, often pumping out loafs until the early afternoon. Walsh said, “I think the freshness is what makes it extra special.”
