The Refectory Cafe

The food was delicious. Brussels sprouts, focaccia, salmon, short ribs, bolognese, desserts. Best of all they were willing to seat us outside, by a heat lamp, at our request. We really appreciated their willingness to accommodate a party with an immunocompromised member.

Refectory Restaurant has been our favorite and go-to choice for years. It has been our experience that meals are consistently delicious which we can't say for other restaurants. You will be welcomed and catered to by a wonderful staff. Pat & Judy

Truly exceptional food - excellent!! A surprisingly limited beer and IPA supply. They only offer to divide checks in two, which is awkward for a group.

We were a group of 8 for a special annual Christmas brunch. Our table had a festive plaid tablecloth with lovely fresh flowers. The wait staff were great. The menu was varied and the food was delicious. This is our 3rd year there. We'll be back next year. Thanks Refectory.

This is just a delightful place. It's feels to me like a wonderful bistro type place that you encounter in Europe. A no frills but pleasant dining space, with food, wine and service just excellent. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable without being intrusive. Wish we had something this close to us In eastern NC.

The atmosphere was welcoming and lovely! I loved the fresh flowers on the table. The food was amazing and enough for leftovers the next day. Very reasonably priced and their lemonade was amazing.

I had Eggs Benedict with Salmon served on an English Muffin. The roasted vegetables were undercooked and unseasoned. One "poached" egg was raw. The muffin was not toasted. The hollandaise sauce was fine. The wait staff were very nice and the seating outside was fine. I wouldn't return for the food.

Great job providing several vegan items. We opted to sit outside and the restaurant was super busy so we applaud their dedication to keeping all of their guests happy.

All four entrees were delicious. Shrimp and linguine was one of the best my husband had. The chicken Marsala was delicious. Key lime pie was very good. Our server was wonderful.

Wonderful dinning experience. I am celiac and had no issues with the avocado toast. Was pleasantly surprised to see gf French toast as an option (though I didn’t try it). Will definitely come back!

One of my favorite weekend breakfast spots. Wonderful food, friendly service.

I'm pretty much a creature of habit so I have quiche and sliced tomatoes, but the folks I eat with get the avocado toast with crispy bacon, the chicken biscuit, the rise and shine breakfast, and the lemon ricotta pancakes. All outstanding meals. We do have one friend who always gets cake for breakfast.

The staff is super friendly and helpful. I love coming here for Sunday mornings.

The place was busy & seems quite popular. Excellent staff and very good food. I would go more often if I lived or worked closer to this place.

This was our first visit to the Refectory Cafe and it exceeded our expectations! We came to enjoy brunch with our daughters who go to school in the area, and also celebrate a birthday. The menu choices were plentiful and everything we ordered was amazing! We felt so well taken care of by the staff, and loved watching the teamwork and how they all served and helped each table and guest so efficiently! Our daughter even received a delicious birthday mocktail thanks to a very sweet staff member, which made her day even more special! This is our new favorite Brunch spot and we will be back! Thanks for a great experience!

Fifth visit. Great as usual but expectations tend to rise. We all enjoyed our entrees, but the meal was lacking bread. Okay if it required extra charge, but if available it should have been offered. If not available, then that is why it was a 4
