Wendy Mitchell and her husband, James, are having a good time getting the Greer Station Cafe ready for opening day – Thursday, Dec. 18 at 7 a.m.
That is the date Mitchell has set opening Greer Station Café, at 219 Trade Street.
It’s a return to where Mitchell ruled the meat-and-three offerings in downtown Greer before Southern Thymes closed with previous and short-term owners.
“I’m excited and it’s not to say more things can’t be done,” Mitchell said. “It’s not the best timing to open before Christmas, but it’s time to open our doors and start cooking.”
Mitchell has renovated the kitchen, repainted and has done extensive cleaning.
Hours will be 7 a.m. – 2 p.m. daily.
Mitchell left an enthusiastic note on the door for customers describing some mainstays that will return – employees, menu favorites and customer service.
Signage will be posted outside after the first of the year.
Mitchell’s message read:
The original owner of Southern Thymes will be back at the wheel, driving the new bus!! The name is changed to “Greer Station Café”.
“Some of the original employees will be back working with several ‘new’ ones. Our goal is to provide our customers with Great Food, friendly service in a clean atmosphere. Although this is an old building it can be clean. My pet peeve: CLEANLINESS.
Can’t wait to serve our homemade Vegetable Soup. It’s that time of year for warm comfort foods. You need to check out our Chicken & Dumplins. Yummy!!
Oh yeah, I’ve been working with a company out of Tennessee to bring you the best breakfast sausage. They also make a great Turkey Italian breakfast sausage that I am using to make my “Italian Turkey Sausage Melt. Yummy!!
See you soon,
Wendy
