If you're anywhere near Southern Pines or Pinehurst, BHAWK Distillery is an absolute must-visit!…read more We had the pleasure of taking the distillery tour with the incredible Lisa, and what an experience it was! Her knowledge of bourbon is simply phenomenal, but what made the tour truly memorable was the passion she has for sharing the story of Brad and Jess Halling, their vision for BHAWK, and their deep love and gratitude for Southern Pines, our service members and their families, and the entire Moore County community. Every part of our visit reflected that mission--from the warm hospitality to the outstanding food, exceptional handcrafted spirits, and welcoming atmosphere. And then there's the gift shop... let's just say we couldn't resist! We came home with bottles of Sergeant's Valor, the special Sergeant's Valor Christmas Blend, Madame Colonel Pistachio Bourbon Cream, Madame Colonel Gin, several BHAWK T-shirts, and beautiful bourbon glasses. There were so many unique items that we simply couldn't leave empty-handed! Whether you're visiting the Sandhills, live in Southern Pines or Pinehurst, or are just passing through, make time to stop by for lunch, dinner, or their Sunday brunch. You'll enjoy incredible food, outstanding spirits, and some of the warmest hospitality you'll find anywhere. A very special thank you to Jess for taking the time to make our visit so personal and memorable. It's easy to see why BHAWK has become such a treasured part of the community. We can't wait to come back! Highly recommended!

It's rare to find…read morea spot where the food, service, and atmosphere all hit the mark every single time, but they've managed to pull it off. The dishes are packed with flavor, clearly made with quality local ingredients, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the level of creativity coming out of the kitchen. The staff is consistently warm and attentive, making you feel like you've been coming there for years. They do take reservations, which is great for bigger groups (anything over six), and even when there's a wait, it moves fast. Never long enough to be a hassle. One of the things I love most is their daily special. The rotating menu keeps things interesting, and you can tell the chefs put real thought into crafting something unique each day! If you're searching for a place that blends comfort with standout, big‑city flavors and quality food, Workshop Tavern is the spot! Truly the best restaurant in the area!

You really can't go wrong here. I've been to this location several times, and each time has been with a group of varying size. My family of four, a combined party of eight, and one time we even had time. All times, they were able to accommodate on their covered outside patio, which has heat lamps and vinyl side covers to accommodate all weather and temperatures. My table got the CB7 salad (guilty!), kids grilled salmon, and kids chicken tenders. The kids grilled salmon is a hefty portion, and my little was not able to finish at all. I had a bite, and wow! They did a great job cooking it. My salad, as always, was perfection. Give me a salad with soft cheese, and I'm good to go. The atmosphere inside Char Bar No. 7 is so cozy and calm. It's a great place for a group gathering, intimate date, or anything in between. It just lends itself to every situation that you could think of. If you're in the mood for a good meal, give them a try.
