After 30 years of commitment to community, we’re re-opening our doors this summer completely renovated and re-invented and under new ownership and management! With dishes celebrating High Country cuisine, focusing on seasonality and locality, our menu can satisfy a multitude of appetites; whether it’s something fresh and clean, or a touch richer (check our website for seasonal menu). To accompany our southern regional fare, our beverage program is sure to keep your palate hydrated. Prohibition-style cocktails, craft beers and ciders, as well as wine on tap are just a few of the focuses in our new beverage program. Did we mention we have a 1000 sq.ft. bottle shop to take our beverages to go? Whether you make it in for one of our local music nights, a weekend wine tasting, or just to take in the corner of Main Street and your access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, we can’t wait to serve you up an authentic Appalachian experience at The Speckled Trout Restaurant and Bottle Shop!
