Southern Vault Bistro

My daughters took me here for my birthday and we all enjoyed everything. The staff is very friendly, the downstairs has a relaxed and cheerful vibe, and the food was delicious! After eating, we went upstairs and onto the rooftop. Gorgeous view up there. All this in little ol’ Pickens!

We thoroughly enjoyed our brunch today! Super attentive and personable staff. Great atmosphere and menu. The menus is good sized - not too small but not overwhelming. Appropriate proportions and extremely tasty! The breakfast bowl was phenomenal and we really enjoyed the buffalo chicken salad too - best homemade ranch we’ve had! A needed addition to Pickens! Stop in and give them a try!

We’ve officially found our new after-church Sunday brunch spot at The Southern Vault. The shrimp & grits bar was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was top-notch from start to finish. It’s refreshing to have such a quality brunch option right here in Pickens. We’ll definitely be back and look forward to many more Sundays here.

One of the best meals I have had in a long time. Service is impeccable and the atmosphere is sophisticatedly charming. Try the grits or chicken salad. You won’t be disappointed.

Calm, quaint and sophisticated! Also has THE best coffee... try the cappuccino add carmel...delish! Great place to meet up with others.
