New brunch restaurant, BaKon Southern Eatery, opens in Chapin

BaKon Southern Eatery offers a new breakfast option for locals and visitors.

It's called BaKon Southern Eatery, and it's on Columbia Avenue. They, of course, offer bacon in almost everything they serve.

It's been busier every day, with double their foot traffic Thursday at 150 visitors. Staff shared that they're anticipating a very busy weekend. 

"It was just the best, some of the best we've ever had," Karen Gedroic, a new Chapin resident, said. "Not your typical run-of-the-mill menu and everyone here has been very gracious and very good at their jobs."
