In case you weren’t aware, Coffee Coffee closed in February and vacated its spot at Hone in West Greenville and Sum Bar in downtown Greenville.
Taking its place at Hone is Sacrament GVL.
The new pop-up has become well known for its matcha and flash – a style of cold brew invented in Japan – as it has not had an espresso machine since it got started in March.
On May 19, the budding coffee shop announced it has acquired an espresso machine, dropping a new menu May 20. Side note: Sacrament doesn’t up-charge for oat milk, seeing the selection as a necessity rather than a choice. What sweethearts!
Bite-sized bits:
- A new coffee shop will soon enter Greenville, Kind Cafe. It has a sister restaurant in Fairhope, Alabama.
- Potluck GVL will host a unique pop-up dinner at the Spartanburg Art Museum. The dinner – entitled Kiln to Kitchen – will be split into two parts on June 7 and June 26. On June 7, guests will get to make three pieces of their own plate ware in a ceramics class led by a local instructor. On June 26, Potluck will host a coursed-out dinner during which guests can use the plates they made and take them home. Tickets are available at dinepotluck.com.
In case you missed it:
- There is now a local Hawaiian plate lunch food truck, Simply Aloha. The truck is owned by Rebekah Ball, who hails from Makakilo, Hawaii on O’ahu. Ball opened the truck because she missed food from home. The truck serves items like chicken katsu, fried rice, loco moco (hamburger patty with gravy, mac salad and rice). Ball is of Korean descent and adds homemade kimchi to her plate lunch. Although not normally an addition to the plate in Hawaii, it is a tasty ode to her heritage.
- Did you hear there is a new speakeasy in downtown Greenville? Juhl & Co. opened March 31, bringing painstakingly classic cocktails to the space above Rey’s. The speakeasy was originally Rey’s Jeweler’s and the decor pays homage to the Art Deco era. Guests need a code to enter so be on the lookout.
