It looks like it's not the end for an iconic Greenville restaurant
after all.
The owner of Greenville's Clock restaurant tells us that a
deal has been worked out, although nothing is on paper yet. He tells 7 On Your Side it's a five year

The restaurant was set to close at the end of March because

The owner tells us news of the closing brought in a surge of
customers.
