The intimate dining rooms within the white-columned Fearrington House, a member of Relais & Chateaux, have welcomed guests for thirty years. It's here that Executive Chef Colin Bedford continues a commitment to exceptional farm-to-fork cuisine. Many of the region’s best chefs have contributed to Fearrington House's story - from founder Jenny Fitch to guest chef Edna Lewis and now Colin Bedford.

The menu reflects the seasons and what's exceptional. Among the Winter 2012 favorites, so far: NC Flounder with Butter-Poached Crab; Sweet Potato Risotto with Truffles, Wild Mushrooms; Seared Monkfish with Braised Oxtail; Butternut Squash Soup with Pecan Bread Pudding, Maple Creme Fraiche; Smoked Pheasant with Confit Leg; Smoked Red Fish with Clams and Bonfire Salt; Cured Duck Breast with Chestnut Jam; Oysters with Vidal Ice Wine; Sticky Toffee Ale Cake and, as always, the Foie Gras; and the legendary Hot Chocolate Souffle, introduced by Edna Lewis in 1983.

We are pleased to be Green Certified and to have been ranked a top 50 restaurant in the US, based on more than two million reviews by OpenTable diners.

We invite guests to arrive early and tour the ornamental gardens surrounding the Restaurant and enjoy the views of the pasture. Jackets are recommended for gentlemen.  The Fearrington House is 8 miles south of Chapel Hill and 20 miles west of Durham, the Research Triangle Park and Cary. Click here for directions.
