Restaurants and bars

What is open, and when

Reservations open sixty days ahead for the rooms that take them. The rest are walk-in and always will be.

Southern fine dining · $$$$

The Drampiola

Country ham, spoonbread and a duck that takes three days. The bourbon pairing is not a gimmick.

Bourbon bar · $$$

Six hundred bottles, a ladder on a rail, and a barman who will find you something under twenty dollars that is better than the thing you asked for.

Café & counter · $

Biscuits, coffee, and a pimento cheese sandwich that has developed a small following.

Private dining · $$$$

Fourteen seats behind the library, one menu, and a door that closes properly.

Practical

Every kitchen keeps an allergen matrix at the pass and every menu is available in large print. Tell whoever seats you and they will tell the kitchen.

Welcome everywhere except the gaming floor and the bars after 8 PM. There is a proper children's menu rather than three fried things.

Full vegetarian and vegan options at every venue, not a single substitution, and gluten-free bread made rather than bought in.

There is no dress code anywhere. We ask for smart dress in one room late in the evening and we ask it kindly.
