A former mill village 40 minutes south-west. Haw River Farmhouse Ales and the Eddy Pub in a 1920s spinning room make an excellent half-day rural food trip.
A 20-minute drive to a restaurant scene as independent as Durham's. Crook's Corner invented shrimp and grits; Lantern is a serious farm-driven kitchen.
The state capital 30 minutes east. Ashley Christensen's James Beard-winning Poole's Diner and Bida Manda's Laotian kitchen are the main draws.
