If you're looking for a rural restaurant in North Carolina with excellent cuisine and pretty views, visit the Eddy Restaurant & Pub. Located in Saxapaw, it’s a wonderful drive out toward Graham through Chapel Hill. And if the weather is agreeable, sit on the balcony overlooking the countryside and the lovely Haw River. The owners' purpose in building the Eddy in 2010 was to unite folks in a warm and welcoming place and to utilize the rich, local resources available. It seems they were successful; just look at what's taking place at this exceptional rural restaurant.

Look at the Eddy with its large windows and decks glowing radiantly in the sunlight.

Seating is limited so ensuring a table with an online reservation is highly recommended. Or call 336-525-2010

to reserve your spot.

If you like beer, we suggest you start with one of those as the varieties here are quite unique and change with the seasons and other occasions.

From mocktails, cocktails, beer, and wine, something delicious is available, such as this summer choice of Blueberry Lemonade Wheat Ale from Steel Hands in Greensboro.

Please drink it outside as you appreciate the countryside below.

As an entree or appetizer, the Spring Salad is always a hit.

Arugula, strawberries, asparagus, pecan-crusted goat cheese and a light citrus vinaigrette make a perfect light dish. Add some heft with grilled chicken if you like.

The Fried Chicken Sandwich is perfection on a brioche bun.

The chicken can be tossed in house honey mustard or spice it up with some buffalo sauce.

The hand-cut Pimento Cheese Fries are outstanding as a side or alone.

These golden jewels are topped with perfectly melted house-made pimento cheese.

For a weekend treat, the brunch offers some different fare, including the filling breakfast burrito.

Packed with house chorizo, farm-fresh eggs, black beans, rice, cotija and cheddar cheese all rolled in a warmed flour tortilla - this entree is delicious.

Keep on the lookout for specials fitting the weather, such as the lamb and beef shepherd's pie special offered sometimes on damp weekends.

And the homemade desserts are always welcome, such as the light and airy tres leches.
