What a wonderful tiny cafe off the beaten path! We were driving the South Carolina back roads one beautiful Sunday and stumbled upon this gem. If you blink you will miss it. Just off the side of the road is more seating on the deck than inside. The cutest space where when you order it is radioed out to the grill tender. We ate bbq and half a chicken. Good luck to this small town cafe!

Delicious food and wonderful staff. Location was adorable with seating on a closed in porch. Food came out fast. We ate half of the fried cheese curds before I remembered to take a photo. Husbands philly cheese steak devoured in no time..

Very unique experience. Small cafe with a rare to find atmosphere from 50 years ago. We had a group of about 10. Each one really enjoyed their food. Food came out quick and the staff was very friendly.

Delicious lovely little cafe with smiling friendly service and absolutely delicious food. Chicken salad is wonderful, so are the cheese curds and home made ice cream. We stopped here passing through, 4 of us and we all loved it. I wish I lived close, I would love to try everything on the menu. .
Oh and they have GLUTEN FREE pizza!

Was touring around the area, saw the cafe and hoped for coffee and pie of some sort. We went inside, looked over the menu and decided to have an early dinner. Cheese curds, brunswick stew, crab cake sandwich and lemon cake. It was a cool, local little place with good food. Would definitely come back!

I’ve been a Google guide for 15+ years and nothing has surprised me more than Mount Carmel Cafe. From the outside looks like something you would just drive past. However, inside is a quaint family owned diamond in the ruff. This is a must do. The owner shared with me on Sundays you need to get there before 11:30 or after four to miss the crowds. The food was FABULOUS!!! You can watch a barbecue dish cooked fresh on the grill. It was so good we bought a slab of ribs to take home.

The wife and I rode down from the upstate on our motorcycle along with another couple close to 50 miles to eat dinner and fellowship. I picked Mount Carmel Cafe none of us had eaten there so I was kinda nervous because more times than not you ride all these miles to show somebody a restaurant only to be highly disappointed.
This was not the case the staff at Mount Carmel Cafe was outstanding! The food was awesome the atmosphere was a 10/10 for a small town restaurant or Cafe the cheese curds are great must have but my hat’s off and I highly recommend this Cafe 10 out of 10

Really nice spot for lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal. I had the BBQ ribs, I love good BBQ and am picky about it. The ribs were just ok but the sides were delicious and everything else looked good.

Stopped by Mount Caramel Café on our way home from Northeast Georgia for some lunch. It wasn’t too busy, to be expected for a Monday noon time, and was very cozy. The ladies at the counter were very nice and doted on my 2 year old. I had the chicken philly cheese sandwich, my wife had the hotdog and my son had a cheeseburger. I tried a little of everything and the burger was good, and the hot dog with their homemade chili was really good. Fair prices for a lunch time stop, we enjoyed ourselves and took our time getting back on the road. Definitely one of the best little hole in the wall joints I have been to in the small towns of SC.
