Looking for a unique place to dine! Come enjoy the haunted historic Lemp Mansion. We offer a variety of dishes, from Beef Wellington to Eggplant Parmesan. Make sure to save room for a delicious Bananas Foster or Cherries Jubilee, our flaming desserts prepared table-side. On Sundays, we serve Family-Style Chicken Dinner, all you care to eat! After lunch or dinner take a wander around the main floor. There are many beautiful aspects to see, from the hand painted ceiling in the Parlor to the original vault doors leading into our museum & gift shop. The Lemp mansion was originally the home of the biggest beer barons of their time.

About the restaurant
We want to bring a different type of fun to the corner of Manchester and McKnight. COFFEE, MIMOSAS, BLOODY MARYS AND GOOD FOODLocally Sourced / Crafted for Fun.
The owners of The Mud House, have opened a new breakfast-and-lunch spot next to Hangar in Rock Hill. Momo’s chef is Jesse Mills, a former sous chef at the Tavern and at Hangar. Both Mills and the Sedlaks believe in using the highest quality products throughout the menu, such as farm eggs from Buttonwood Farms. That’s what sets Momo’s aside from other breakfast places. You can see and taste the difference, both in the standard dishes and on the sandwiches containing eggs.
The Momo restaurant’s tagline is “coffee-champagne-kitchen,” which hallmarks of a fun brunch. You can grab a regular breakfast or lunch, or you can crank it up with brunch-based cocktails. Momo is about coffee and cocktails and just happens to serve really good food. The restaurant is open is open for breakfast and lunch daily from 7 a.

About the restaurant
Café Napoli is a family owned restaurant, established in 1989 by Tony and Kathy Pietoso. Quickly becoming a success, they moved the small basement restaurant to a larger location at the corner of Forsyth and Bemiston in the heart of Clayton. In 2003, sons Ande and Kye expanded their family restaurant by adding Bar Napoli, a swank cocktail lounge. A few years later, Napoli Reserve was added onto Bar Napoli allowing for private event space and an additional bar and lounge for the weekends.
After years of a flourishing business, Kathy and Tony decided to take their ventures West to Town and Country where they opened their second location, Napoli2, managed by Ande. Kye has taken the reigns from his father and is now the front man for the 8,000 square foot establishment in Clayton.
Café Napoli and Bar Napoli have recently undergone a face lift inside and out. Inside the kitchen, Executive Chef from Napoli2 Jon Berger was recently added to the team, bringing fresh ideas and innovation to the regional Italian specialties.Top review
