Southern Pines Restaurants

Pinehurst has been associated with golf for over a century, and the dining options are exactly what one might expect from a historically important and prestigious country club community in the Carolinas: Southern hospitality and rich, down-home cooking. Family-style banquet dinners featuring classics like fried chicken and gravy steak are a key part of the Pinehurst appetite, but you'll also find restaurants modeled after traditional clubhouses and stately English-style pubs. In Pinehurst, the ambiance is as important as the food itself. Many of the restaurants available occupy beautiful buildings that maintain a traditional antebellum style. Steakhouses in the Oak Room style are another popular option among both locals and visitors.
