Eggs Up Grill

Open Early, Every Day, Everywhere!

I don’t know about you, but our kids wake up early. They are usually up and hungry before we are even fully awake! Sometimes we just need someone else to bake the pancakes and pour the coffee, and on those days, we’re thankful to know exactly where to go: Eggs Up Grill.

They are open early, every day of the week. A lot of breakfast spots cater towards those who can afford to take their morning slowly, and they may not open until 9am or even later. But parents of little ones know what I’m talking about: We don’t have that luxury. Eggs Up Grill opens their doors at 6am every day of the week. Now that’s what I’m talking about!

Most locations stay open until 2pm or later, which means slow risers and early risers alike are able to enjoy their delicious breakfast, brunch, and lunch options. And closing by mid-afternoon gives every person on their team the chance to have real work-life balance, which means their staff are some of the happiest people I’ve ever seen when I’m walking through those doors even on days before the sun’s come up!

Spotlight: Eggs Up Grill in Moore, SC

Eggs Up Grill started as a single restaurant on the South Carolina coast, but it has grown to offer 30 locations statewide and even more across our borders. I’ve been to a few across the Upstate and never had a bad experience, but I’ll paint a picture for what you can expect using our family’s go-to place: Eggs Up Grill in Moore, SC.

Firstly, the doors really are unlocked at 6 am! The restaurant is bathed in morning light, with wall-to-wall windows on every side where they can have them. They can roll down the shades anytime the sun gets harsh, but there is just something refreshing about starting your day dining in the fullness of that natural light.

The next thing I always notice, and always appreciate as a mom, is that the entire establishment is consistently clean. No matter what time we visit, whether it’s right when they open or during a lunch rush, I’ve never seen it in a state of neglect. Let’s be real: Kids are messy, and a lot of places catering to kids end up the same way. But not Eggs Up Grill. They offer a beautifully casual, family-friendly atmosphere that is maintained to a refreshing standard of excellence.

We’re at the point that we have a favorite booth, so I have started just making a beeline towards it. Someone always sees me carrying my baby as soon as I walk through the door, and we’re met with a high chair at the table in seconds. No matter the server, they always greet our children with a big smile and hand them the kids’ menus with crayons.

And my favorite part? They work fast! As soon as we’re ready to order, they’re ready to take it. Our drinks are out before we know it, and the food never takes more than a few minutes. Parents of little ones, I know you can imagine how much our family appreciates that!

Bites We Love: Mocha, Muffins, and More!

The food at Eggs Up Grill is fantastic. No matter which location we visit, we get a guaranteed good meal. You can check their menu online for pictures and prices, but I’ll go ahead and let you know a few of our favorites!

My husband is a former barista and loves their smooth, chocolatey Mocha Cold Brew. I’m all about pancakes, and the ones at Eggs Up Grill are consistently golden and delicious. The Crème Brulee French Toast is pure magic—topped with custard, drizzled in caramel, and completely indulgent! For our fruit-loving kids, we always order both their fresh fruit and one of their Grilled Blueberry Muffins to split. If you’ve never had it, the Grilled Blueberry Muffin is an easy add-on and totally worth tasting!
