Situated next door to the entrance of Chimney Rock at Chimney Rock State Park, snag a table on the deck overlooking the Rocky Broad River. Enjoy award-winning fresh salads and grilled sandwiches, including 100 percent grass-fed beef burgers, which has made the list for Zagat’s “Must-try Burgers across the Country.”
End your meal with the ORC scrumptious signature Apple Brown Betty dessert, served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Wash it all down with their great selection of regional craft brews.
You can also order a hiker’s lunch to take out on the trails. Be sure to check out seasonal live music on the deck, fun cooking classes, and pick-up-and-go catering.
