Day trips that involve food destinations are irresistibly delicious – and so is this diner in South Carolina that’s nestled right in the heart of horse country. If it has been a while since you ventured over to the state’s western side and the small town of Aiken, then perhaps now is a good time to rev up the engine and hit the road for a foodie adventure!
Betsy’s Round the Corner is located at 224 Park Avenue in the heart of downtown Aiken.

Inside Betsy’s, you’ll find traditional diner seating on the first floor and a full bar and contemporary space upstairs on the second.

Okay… maybe diners do server burgers - but not like these.

And perhaps diners even serve club sandwiches - but again, not quite like Betsy’s! To say Betsy’s doesn’t skimp on serving sizes in an understatement.

Even the appetizers, like their signature avacado toast seen here, are enormous, creative, and almost too beautiful to eat without first snapping a photo.

If Betsy’s sounds familiar to you but you remember it as being on the corner, then just know your memory is not failing. Betsy’s did use to be in a much smaller space on a corner in Aiken, but moved in 2019 to accommodate more folks in their present location on Park Avenue.
