Dine on Sophisticated Southern Dishes at UP on the Roof

UP on the Roof has its roots in South Carolina, and you can tell when you look at the menu! Every season, our chef comes up with creative dishes using the freshest locally sourced ingredients available in our region.

This spring, start your meal with one of our fan-favorite shareables, like the Lettuce Wraps filled with honey-soy fried chicken, herbed goat cheese ranch, and spicy-sweet gochujang. For a main entrée, try This (Not So) Little Piggy: a dry-aged duroc pork chop served with braised collard greens and Hoppin’ John.

If you’re a seafoodie, then order our Pan-Seared Carolina Trout finished with lemon butter, topped with capers, and paired with a fingerling potato confit. We even have plenty of options for vegetarians and vegans, including our Seasonal Risotto and the Beyond Quesadilla with plant-based Beyond taco “meat”.

Plus, make sure you visit UP on the Roof over the weekend for the best brunch in Anderson, SC! With options like the Just Poutine It out There and Ain’t No Challah Back Girl (our fun take on French toast,) you’ll find that our brunchy bites are as delicious as their names are clever.

Those selections just scratch the surface of what we have to offer at UP on the Roof. Check out our full menu to see what gets your mouth watering!

Raise a Glass to a Fun Outing in Anderson, SC

Given our cocktail-centric vibe, you better believe that the new UP on the Roof in Anderson, SC, has a vast repertoire of signature libations! Furthermore, we make them all with fresh-squeezed juices and premium spirits.

While you could order your usual mixed drinks at our full bar, we recommend sipping on one of our Soaring Bottled Cocktails just begging to be featured on your Instagram. Longtime favorites include the Strawberry Thyme with gin and the vodka-based Peach Out.

But if spirits aren’t your speed, we’ve also hand-selected a variety of wines from around the world, as well as craft beers from nearby breweries. Not drinking?
