    If you are looking for an upscale restaurant with a great ambiance this is your spot. The…read morerestaurant is in an old mill and has unique brickwork and exposed beams to really set a fun experience. They have a piano player playing quietly to really create a lovely atmosphere for a quiet dinner where you can talk with your company. The menu is à la carte. The worst thing is deciding what to eat because you want to order everything on the menu. We had a group of 4 and we all ordered different entrees. We started with a bottle of wine but their cocktail list looked amazing and I will try that next time. The bottle we ordered was on the dry side but ended up complimenting our meal very well. I ordered the beef tenderloin with mashed potatoes and mushrooms and it was excellent. Perfectly tender. My table also ordered stuffed scallops, the ribeye, and the halibut. I wish I had taken a picture of the menu because the sauces served with each meal really brought out the flavors. The dessert menu was also excellent. They offered a gluten free apple streusel and it was so great to have a dessert.

    We enjoyed a delightful dinner at The Sycamore. Repurposing part Chatham Mills into a fine…read morerestaurant allowed the historic elements of the building create a unique atmosphere. While rustic, The Sycamore feels very upscale. Service was excellent! We were warmly greeted by the hostess and our server was engaging. She provided excellent recommendations for us. Drinks from the bar were deliciously crafted. The sides are sized for the table and I highly recommend the Mac N Cheese. We had the Winter Mushroom Ravioli, Butter-Poached Lobster, and the Grilled Bistro Filet. All three were perfect. Our dinner was completed with their impeccable Spiced Sweet Potato Cake. The Sycamore is a terrific choice for a fine dinner to celebrate a special occasion, for a date, or just to have a nice experience with friends. I'd love to take advantage of the Lounge which can be reserved for private gatherings. Definitely put The Sycamore at Chatham Mills on your short list...and move it to the top.

    10/2024 I have been back here a few times since they had the incident with the bust. New owners…read more You have two MOD's. The bigger place where bands play and the smaller dine in area. Both share the same kitchen. The last few times I have been here strolling around Pittsboro the service has been great. I did go to the larger area where bands play. The attendants were friendly and pleasant. The order came in a timely matter. The food was great and drinks were inexpensive. So having dinner, drinks (10) not all mine. They were of the alcoholic variety. Oh yes an appetizer also cost a bit less than a C note. Not bad don't you say. The decor is very cool here. Carved statues that are for sale. I will come back. They always have great entertainment there.

    We've never been huge fans of the food here, but the pizzas were usually decent, so we decided to…read moregive it another try. Big mistake. We ordered the supreme pizza, and when it arrived, it looked and tasted completely undercooked, doughy crust, barely melted cheese, and sad toppings. The vegetables were just large, unappetizing chunks of bell pepper and onion, with canned mushrooms and cheap-tasting meat that reminded us of Domino's (not in a good way). Even the cheese left that same powdery aftertaste definitely not fresh mozzarella. The supposed wood-fired crust had no char, no crisp, nothing to suggest a proper wood-fired oven was used, or if it was, they clearly don't know how to use it. We sat outside by the band hoping for a pleasant atmosphere, but it was anything but. Despite multiple "No Smoking" signs, there were people smoking all around the patio, and staff did nothing about it. If a restaurant can't enforce basic rules, it raises questions about the standards they hold in the kitchen as well. At this point, we're done giving second chances. It's time to move aside and let a real restaurant take over the space

    Kills me to write this because I so wanted to love it. My daughter and I were celebrating my…read morebirthday with afternoon tea -- a tradition we've enjoyed at places across the country -- and this one fell flat for the price. The good: beautiful space, excellent Harney & Sons tea, and outstanding scones. Unfortunately, that's where the highlights end. The milk bread used for all the sandwiches was dense, dry, and hard to swallow, which wiped out an entire tier of the service. No one came to check on us, so we had no chance to raise our concerns. A booked baby shower in the same room completely killed the ambiance, and despite noting a special birthday at reservation, it went entirely unacknowledged. Beautiful bones, but the execution made my birthday memorable for all the wrong reasons.

    Finally made it here! The Fearrington House has been on our list for years, so I made a 2026…read morereservation as my husband's Christmas gift. It was an incredible dining experience. The service and presentation of each plate was outstanding. We had the 3 course Prix Fixe menu, and we got something different so we could try 6 things. Overall, the food was good but did not quite rise to the same level as the presentation and service. Rating by plate: - Pumpkin Squash (2 stars): It was very hard and not very warm. Do not recommend. - Pork Osso Bucco (5 stars): Best thing we had. Wish we both ordered this one so we didn't have to share. - Beef Tenderloin (4 stars): We enjoyed it, but have definitely had better for less money. - Seared Chicken Breast (3 stars): It was a rectangular piece of meat, which was unexpected. I would compare it to chicken at a wedding, but I've had better at a wedding. - NC Cheese Trio (4 stars): Large portion of cheeses with a nice variety. I wish the crackers had more variety (not all seedy). - Chocolate Soufflé (5 stars): This is their signature item and a must get! The name on the menu is more complicated than the word chocolate, lol.
