4 Best Vegan Restaurants near Lake Lure

“This is a second restaurant at Rumbling Bald across the street from Legends on the golf course. We were here the first night of our stay and it was pretty slow. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We tried a few bites to eat and were not disappointed. They accomodated everything we asked for. We intended to go back, but also had several other places around that we wanted to try and the two times we went back on property we landed at Legends. If there is a wedding and Legends is crazy and you're looking for a quieter refuge, try The Gardens. A caviat here is we never did figure out what exactly the "season" is around here... Gardens is listed as a seasonal restaurant, but we couldn't figure out if this is a hunter's paradise, a summer retreat, a snowbird's escape, or a heat wave escape (the latter being our reason for being here... 110° gets old fast!)“

“I live here. They cannot get help. No one wants to work. You can’t get good service if you can’t get help. It’s a nationwide problem since Covid. If they had help you would love Legends. Spray the patio if there are roaches. It literally rained all summer this year. That brings roaches. They won’t hurt you.“

“Chimney Rock is one of my favorite areas in NC, the scenery is absolutely beautiful, and Chimney Rock Brewing is one of the best spots to stop and eat, and drink a delicious beer while visiting. I'm definitely a beer guy, and I enjoyed all the beers I had here. I tried the Moroccan flatbread which was a "today's" special, and wow was it delicious! Definitely should be added to the full time menu! The back deck overlooks the river, and the scenery is amazing and relaxing. If you're visiting Chimney Rock, do yourself a favor and stop here!“

“Very friendly staff, great selection of ice cream.“
