Restaurants near Crossnore

“Great cakes, pies, and ice cream. This is the place to stop and get a dessert.

But check the hours or call to see if they’re open before you go. When we were here in June 2024, they were only open Saturday and Sundays from 1 - 5 pm.

Oh and great antiques and homemade soaps.

Also, they only accept cash or check!”

“We stopped by on our way home to GA because we had to detour due to road closure. We were tired, hungry and give out. The owner and staff were extremely helpful, polite and gave us great instructions on getting around the road closure. Grill was closed unfortunately so we couldn't get food but everything else we bought was great. They really made us feel welcome and brightened our day which was a long, tough one. Would highly recommend stopping by and if we are in the area again, we will make it a point to stop there. Its a great little store with a bit of everything. A side note also, it was one of the cleanest bathrooms I've used on the road!”

“It was absolutely amazing and peaceful. Best message I have ever had at the Spa.

Rooms: Clean and accommodating. Colonial charm.

Walkability: Everything was within walking distance of 5 to 7 minutes.

Food & drinks: The food was amazing. We tried several items and enjoyed everything. I do not typically order steak as I always seemed to get disappointed. I had the Prime NY Strip, and it was perfectly cooked and as tender and juicy as it should be. Absolutely fantastic!”
