Restaurants in Southern Pines

“I had lunch today at Chapman’s. They had a risotto special and I decided to take a walk on the wild side, instead of ordering my go to. It was so good! It had shrimp, spinach,and a few other things in it. The portion was huge. It was definitely a win! I hope they will serve it again sometime. He server was great and very pleasant.Thanks Chapmans!”

“Excellent Indian cuisine cooked to order - choose your level of hot & spicy. Located inside the EconoLodge in Southern Pines, NC. Best approached from rear entrance off Morganton Rd. Small with nice decor and friendly service.”

“Made an hour trip to come here and would definitely come again. Meal portions are large. Staff is very friendly. Good came out quickly and hot. Super yummy.”

“Our server, Wanda was great! The meal was good. I ordered a 14 oz ribeye, but ended up with a New York Strip. Our waiter was having the cook staff to prepare a ribeye for me and the manager came out to reassure me that my steak was a ribeye. I didnt want to make an issue of the cut, but I should have let him know that I raise beef cattle for a living. The strip was decent, but not as good as a ribeye and certainly overpriced at what a ribeye cost. Thank you Wanda, you provided great service!”

“Had an amazing experience this past weekend, we brought both my parents and five month old daughter for an early seating. The steak special was 10oz and even had a langoustine cheese topping, chunks of lobster yum!!, mom had the barramundi fish special and the white Bordeaux blend were outstanding. Love how there are constantly specials changing but some of our favorites (the duck and hangar steak) remain on the menu. Attentive staff had pairing recommendations and everyone felt the warm, positive vibes coming from the kitchen! We’ve eaten here for years and this past weekend was next level, thank you!”

“I am 46 years old and I just recently formed a core memory from eating at 195. When I say this was possibly the best meal of my life, it is only because I cannot remember loving what I was eating more. It was that kind of meal that becomes the topic of conversation for days to come. Somebody in that kitchen knows what the f*** they are doing.”

“Great food and excellent service! The southwestern chicken pasta was absolutely amazing.”

“Great seafood and nice place!”

“Found this gem on Yelp. Visited with my husband, my son, and his girlfriend. The food was so good and the flavor profiles excellent. My husband and I split a cup of the seafood chowder - fabulous. I had the Mexican shrimp tacos, my husband had the special quiche, my son had a taco that was supposed to come on a flour tortilla, but they gladly substituted corn, and his girlfriend had the salmon wraps. At the end we split a piece of peanut butter pie. The food was all delicious including the sides of homemade regular and sweet potato chips and the broccoli slaw. We will definitely go back. As we left the owner took our pictures with our motorcycles pulled up to the entry. Awesome”

“Honestly, I don’t know why anyone would go anywhere else for a party. The owner did a fabulous job on my 65th birthday party. She spent time with us talking about wines ,introducing us to New delicious varieties. The atmosphere was quiet where you could actually have conversations with people but yet there was music or TV whatever your heart desires. Thank you again for a fabulous party.💫”

“Every time we go we have an amazing experience. We have visited throughout the years and it’s always good. Great food and excellent cocktails with a cozy atmosphere . I advise sitting on the pub side. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Had a great experience last weekend eating here for dinner. Great atmosphere, our food was fantastic and so was our server, James. The owner, Jeff also made a point to come talk to and get to know us. 10/10 experience will absolutely be going back again soon!”

“Mama Lucia, who is the best server was on point as always. We had cocktails and wine along with calamari to start. My wife had the special which was great wahoo fish. And I had the shrimp and scallop scampi. Everything was well prepared.”

“Best chicken curry ramen ever!!! Service is exceptional!!! Highly recommend this restaurant. You won't be disappointed.”

“Bar 1901 did an excellent job with the bar service at the Peach Orchard Venue. While they are the only option for alcohol at that venue, our guests were very pleased with their drinks and professional bar tenders.”

“Excellent food and service! I highly recommend!”

“Just moved to the area and really wanted pizza! Vitos was our first stop, and man I’m glad it was. It’s the most cozy environment, service was outstanding and Vito himself not only stopped by to check on us but also brought our pie and daughter ice cream. It instantly felt like home and family and can’t wait to make it a regular thing.”

“First Time here, son took me for my Birthday. Food was delicious. Service not so much. Waitress messed up twice, blamed it on kitchen and was very slow. Even with the meh service, I will still return as the food was impeccable.”

“Food was good other than the steak being way over salted. It was cooked to order and everything else was good. Over crowded so we sat at that bar to eat. Next time I'll ask for an unseasoned steak.”

“Typical Donald Ross design! Probably the most undulating greens on any course that I've played that he designed! They redesigned the course a few years ago and added more undulations that Ross would have had in the original design to make the course more difficult, due to some holes being fairly short in distance! They also went back to the original sand hills natural areas instead of rough grass! If you're a great putter , you'll love this course!”

“Food was good but the service ruined it, waiting at the table for 20 minutes before even taking our drink order. Forget about timely drink refills. Ordered dessert and a black coffee with a shot of espresso and only received a shot of espresso in the bottom of a coffee cup, crazy.. waitress kinda acted like she had a chip on her shoulder. I wasn't confrontional about the service, just praying things get better for her and what ever the situation was. O by the way the pumpkin cheese cake was really good.”

“Outback steakhouse is always my go-to when looking for a steakhouse in Moore County. Can't beat the appetizers or main course. And I especially love the service provided by Zayy. I always ask for Zayy. He is very professional and knows the menu inside and out. He always goes the extra mile. Thanks for making our dinner extra special Outback and Zayy!”

“Love Betsy’s. It is our favorite go to breakfast spot.”

“Cozy velvet couches, individual nooks with convenient little side tables, and a few tables make up this charming spot to caffeinate at. You'll find great service from friendly baristas, delicious and festive seasonal espresso drinks + regular drip, and an assortment of hand made gifts from local artisans.”

“Their food is always 10/10.”

“Today was my first time eating here & I was very impressed!! I ordered lunch & had it delivered via DoorDash. First of all, I have never had take out food so beautifully plated/packaged. They provided plenty of sauces, the portions were pretty big (had plenty leftover for dinner) & everything was so fresh. I got the Walking Taquitos & an individual taco with carne asada, cilantro, & onions. It was delicious!! I can’t wait to try more things on their menu!!”

“A burst of fresh flavors and sunshine in “The Ultimate Falafel”. My wonderful friends, Marca and Alex brought lunch to me today introducing me to Roast. I will be stopping by during my future travels through Carthage NC. Fresh food has such unique taste and texture. If you enjoy healthy great food then this will become your local “let’s go to” location. Check out the website for local entertainment events.”

“The Ice Cream Parlor is my favorite lunch spot in Southern Pines. The business is really symbolic of this charming small-town, and you won’t find another business that’s so integrated in this wonderful community. Enjoy a burger, dog, or cone here and you’ll see why.”

“Awesome spot! Music, booze dogs what else could be better?”

“Delicious latte! The beans they use taste amazing and the house made syrup is always a must for me, which is also delicious. Super nice staff who also gave me suggestions for other places to try while we were in town. In a great walkable area too.”

“Our Breakfast GO TO! Down home goodness! food and staff are EXCELLENT 😁 my fav order is ...... 2 eggs OM, country ham, grits & a toasted English muffin. I got you hungry now, don't I! you're welcome. go check them out”

“Honestly one of the best cakes I’ve ever eaten. Highly recommend!”

“love the atmosphere and the lattes. they use great beans from around the world”

“Love the service…. The “Original” is certainly my favorite sandwich, make it complete with chips and topped off with one of Granny Gay’s cookies.”

“I’m not sure how o never been, but OMG Taglios. I stopped and note to self, don’t stop hungry again lol. Got a full roasted chicken with two sides and a sales. The service was wonderful, best chicken I’ve had in pretty much forever and the sides were delicious. The sprouts could have roasted another 5-10 minutes but still yummy. Not sure why the line wasn’t out the door or how I’ve missed this for so long but I expect to be a regular when in Southern Pines for sure!”

“Wife had the Ginger Chicken, and I had the Happy Thia. Best meal I had this year!!! Recommend this place to all. Priced reasonably too.”

“The coffee is delicious and they always have fun seasonal drinks. But the best part is the customer service. The baristas are always so welcoming and friendly. It's like you're getting coffee from your bestie in the morning. 10/10 recommend!”

“Love this place so much!!!! The bowls are all delicious and healthy, with only the natural ingredients, no added sugar!”

“Awesome food at good prices. I have been trying the various Asian restaurants in my area and this one is great. The dim sum was perfectly prepared, the Avocado Chicken, Pad Thai, Salmon, and Glazed Chicken and Pork were full of flavor and fork tender. We will definitely enjoy eating at this restaurant again. It is a nice place to dine in, as the atmosphere is charming and the staff super friendly.”

“Great variety. It was really busy so we did not ask of samples. I got the lemon and the texture was great but the flavor was not what I expected. Will try another flavor like cookie dough”

“Had their chicken pita tonight and it was absolutely amazing! The tzatziki was a 10 out of 10. Best one I’ve had since I lived in Dallas. Also, the fries were spectacular. Perfectly seasoned and crispy. Will 100% be back again. Best gyro I’ve had in NC by far!”

“food was delicious,service was excellent, will definitely be back”

“Was there Friday night with friends. The place was packed and a real fun vibe. Music was present but you could have a conversation. Cocktails were classic and proper. Nice community bar, classy and welcome in our community. Nothing like it in town. Will be back!”

“I put this one star review in and the next day was contacted by the owner/s. They told me they felt bad about the situation and wanted to personally deliver the scones that I had ordered to rectify the oversight. I even told them that I lived in Fayetteville and they said it didn’t matter it’s what they wanted to do. I have to say that that says a lot about someone when they see that you’ve had a bad experience and they’re willing to go out of their way to make it right. At first when this happened I was willing to write the business off and not return, but seeing that they care that much, I will be returning. (Leaving the original review to show the situation that happened and what they felt led to make right) The scones are the best I’ve ever had. Their customer service and organization not so much. I’ve put in a bulk order online two days in advance, get to the store to pick it up and they are looking at me like I don’t know what I’m talking about. Then they check their system and see it in there and then proceed to tell me that they don’t have the scones I ordered, because they didn’t put it together, so I ended up canceling my order and getting a refund. They told me it is best to call or come into the store to put in bulk orders. A few months later I do just that, I go into the store put in my bulk order and was told they could have it ready at 2pm. Go into the store and they don’t have my order. Same employee as last time told me oh well it’s just like last time we didn’t check the system. I told her I came in in person and out this order in at 7am and she then proceeded to tell me, well it must’ve been an oversight, so I had to get my money refunded to me yet again. Although their scones are the best I will not be returning because of this reason.”

“They served roast beef sandwich and called it prime rib. Cobb salad is a joke! Where's the meat....chicken and bacon.”

“Delicious FRESH food, friendly service, and cool atmosphere! Would highly recommend to all my friends!”

“The best frozen treat I have ever had....seriously. I don't really know if all frozen custard is the same, but Goodberry's Frozen Custard I'd incredible. I have gotten Heath with Macadamia nuts. Very nice environment, and very nice staff.”

“Friendly staff and delicious smoothies. Will be a regular stop after soccer practice 😋”

“This is mine and my husband’s favorite sushi restaurant. Sushi was amazing last night as always. Just wanted to compliment the entire staff. Thank you for the delicious meal!”

“I finally got to try Chicken Salad Chick after seeing it all over TikTok, and it absolutely lived up to the hype!! I’m from the Northeast, so we don’t really have Chicken Salad Chick up there, but I was on a road trip through the South and decided I HAD to stop while passing through North Carolina.

Oh my gosh. Genuinely some of the best chicken salad I’ve ever had. 😭 Everything was SO good, the chicken salad, grape salad, mac & cheese, the little cookie, even the whole pickle! I also got the peach tea mixed with lemonade and absolutely loved it.

The restaurant itself was adorable too. Everything was super clean, cute, and honestly just so girly and charming. 😂 I loved the whole aesthetic. I was greeted as soon as I walked in, everyone was welcoming, and it was just such a nice experience from beginning to end.

I’m genuinely sad we don’t have Chicken Salad Chick up north because I would absolutely become a regular. 😭 Such a memorable little stop on my road trip, and I’m so glad I finally got to try it. If I’m ever traveling through an area with another location, I’m 100% stopping again. 10/10! 💕”

“Great froyo with great options.”

“Great place to meet friendly people, play a game of pool, watch a favorite sports team and more. They host a variety of low key activities as well as a live band on selected nights. Nice place for adults to meet a variety of people in a relaxing atmosphere.”

“10/10 recommend the atmosphere & the food was great! Everything is freshly homemade starting with the tortillas!🔥 This is an actual authentic Mexican restaurant.👏🏻”

“Irimi was pur server today and was awesome!”

“Amazing cookies, the brookie is definitely my favorite. Great service and staff!”

“Came to North Carolina to help my son and his fiance move in to their new house. While I was waiting for them to arrive I decided to check out this little local bar. The people were really cool and the drink prices were great. Next time I come back to the area I'm going to have to try the wings. Never made it back the second day to get any.”

“Best food ever - I love the curry chicken salad and amazing chocolate cookies”

“Awesome food! Can’t wait to go back!!”

“Best pizza spot in town!!”

“Great coffee and service. I plan to return. I got the cold brew, and it was delicious, not too dark, flavorful without the need for cream or sweetener.

Very light seating indoors, but once the weather improves, there are great options.”

“Chef Beth’s food is incredible!”

“Had lunch here today and it was delicious. The asparagus soup was out of this world, also the roast beef sandwich was fabulous! The service was excellent! If you are visiting this area anytime in the near future, I highly recommend that you give it a try!”

“The prosciutto parm pizza is amazing!”

“I love this bar! Friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere. THE COLDEST BEER IN TOWN. What more can you ask for?”

“I have tried it twice. The currywurst and the snitzel sandwich ❤️highly recommend the buns are authentic. The meat is tasty. I’m not usually a fan of German food in America so nice to have a place that I enjoy.”

“The greens are growing in for summer...but the sign on the clubhouse makes people think it's just for Elks members but it's open to all golfers...incredible friendly staff...”

“Aquí disfrutando una rica comida”

“Stopped at this location after an event at the Bradshaw Performing Arts Center. We were greeted by Amanda when we arrived & both the service & meals were top notch! Highly recommend! 😊”

“We love Embers BBQ! Not only is the food delicious, but the entire staff is great too. Definitely a must try!”

“We had a birthday celebration at Rudinos this past week for my son’s 21st birthday and everything was absolutely perfect! The food was delicious, the servers were great and the bar tender made sure everyone had what they needed! Would definitely recommend them! Hot wings and pizza are the best in Moore County! Love the Rudinos vibe too! Thanks !”

“I like the Bell Tree Tavern usually. A few days ago, had the Potato soup on Tuesday. It had a sour taste that me and an older lady at a close by table noticed and told our respective waitresses. It was rancid. I asked for them to talk to the kitchen…. Nada. I missed 8 hours of work……roughly $508.”

“The establishment is tucked behind the Olive Garden.
We tried the peach cobbler. They were ok a bit disappointing as some of the other reviewers noted.
The staff was super friendly and helpful”

“Great food and cleanness staff was friendly”

“First time here tonight. Will not be our last! Wonderful, attentive staff. Food was awesome - could not ask for more!”

“I like that the menu offers variety and that everything is organic and tasty!”

“Great food! Staff was friendly and a nice family gave me recommendations! All around feet first visit!”

“My experience at this restaurant was excellent! It was a pretty busy place during the dinner hour but the patrons were very friendly and the energy was great. The wait staff was truly helpful and made sure I had everything I needed without being obtrusive or disruptive. Well done!

I plan to head back there this weekend and get another serving of their Seafood Delight (extra spicy). I love that one! ☺”

“Awesome experience!! Thank you to the incredible staff. We had a college reunion in the area and had BP cater the event. Sandwiches were a huge hit, salads were delicious and of course pickles were included.”

“The kid who took my order was new, but we got there. Great Eastern North Carolina barbecue. Love this chain. I have eaten at many of their restaurants over the last 20 years. Consistent good quality, great tasting food.”

“What a great happiness to me and my relationship! was in relationship for 8 good years with my lover so my lover decided to leave me and follow another woman so we break up for 1 month when I came ac”

“The Fire Cracker Shrimp Is Good”

“Excellent service and amazing food! I ordered on-line and inadvertently selected the wrong location. I called that location to cancel the order and was told they couldn’t help me with the refund. I assumed I would spend the next several days in a battle to get my money back. When I arrived at the Southern Pines location, Jason T volunteered to help me get my refund. He went above and beyond! Because of him I had a fantastic experience. Well done 👍🏽! Food was great as well”

“Habit Burger is our family's favorite burger place! The food is always excellent and you could not ask for better customer service. Alex goes above and beyond to make his store stand out!”

“We visit weekly! Great food and custard. Tammy is wonderful!”

“Very good atmosphere and service. Wait staff was very patient with us. Even waiting 30 min. For all our party to arrive. Will go again.”

“Hands down best chain barbecue I’ve had by a long shot and portion sizes are good as well 5/5 would recommend, ask about their catering services as well👍”

“👍Frank has really turned this Cracker Barrel around. The service is good and so is the food. I love the lemon peppered trout, the campfire meals, and the breakfasts. Also glad that the logo is not being changed.”

“Good experience. Place was clean and presentable. It wasn't too crowded and I didn't really have to wait. I enjoyed it.”
