Best of Metromix Greenville 2012Brunch
Brunch—it's the great unifier, bringing together partiers looking to curtail the effects of their hangovers and churchgoers looking to fill their bellies before (or after) they get real with God. There are several delicious options in Greenville for both sets, ranging from meat-and-threes to upscale gourmet. If you think we left out a deserving nominee, let us hear about it!
And the winner is…
The Bohemian Cafe
2 W. Stone Ave.
Greenville, SC 29609Neighborhood: North End
The Bohemian has become a local staple for breaking the fast on Sunday morning. From eggs Benedict and omelets to French toast and breakfast burritos, there's plenty on the menu to eat. And to drink, they have a bloody Mary bar to give you a little hair of the dog or to keep the conversation easy like Sunday morning. The brunch crowd is tight, so if you have to wait on a table, head next door to Horizon Records for some crate digging.

Nominees
Soby's New South Cuisine
207 S. Main St.
Greenville, SC 29601Neighborhood: Downtown
Soby's brunch is a little different every week and is served buffet style. But there are a few things you can count on: pastries, an omelet station, smoked salmon and a bloody Mary or mimosa (or two). If your appetite leans toward lunch, there's usually a roast beef carving station as well as hot vegetables and sides.
The Green Room
116 N. Main St.
Greenville, SC 29601Neighborhood: Downtown
The Greenroom has a upscale feel but laid back attitude and is a good stop on Main Street during a brisk morning stroll. The brunch menu features stuffed French toast, blue corn crab Benedict, omelets and fruit.
Harry & Jean's
1034 Woodruff Road
Greenville, SC 29607Harry & Jean's menu is eclectic in general, and its brunch menu follows suit. You can order off the brunch or dinner menu during the Sunday brunch hours. The brunch menu features steak and eggs, crab cakes and romano cheese grits.
Stax's Omega Diner
72 Orchard Park Dr.
Greenville, SC 29615Neighborhood: Uptown
Staxs Omega is a place that early risers and night owls can agree on. The diner is open till 3 a.m. on weekends for the after-bar crowd, and you could come back as early as 6:30 a.m. for breakfast. And since the whole menu is served all day every day, it's a good spot for a Sunday brunch of omelets (try the Spartan) or a "Mile High" chicken sandwich.
