First Time!! Great vibe. Decent flavor. Staff Brought out 3 meals and we waited over 10 min for the rest of the order. So all of our food was cold before we could eat. Never once refilled our drinks. The chicken was very good. The eggs on the Benedict were hard boiled not poached. Asked for crispy fries they were not, at all. I would have said something but the waitress never came to check on us until she told us she was leaving for the day. Thanks, the view was beautiful and the vibe is top notch food and service have a bit of work to do.

Smash burger and Veggie burger along with house cut fries, house made hot sauce and house made Ketchup were all delicious. Great view and dogs are welcome on the patio! Nice selection of NC beer! Farm to table items!

First time here visiting this area. The Eddy was recommended. The place is very beautifully done, staff very pleasant and service was excellent. Just keep in mind this restaurant is reservation heavy. There were serval empty tables, but they said were for reservations only. Several sat enough for 40 mins. They only had one table available without a reservation and it is located at the door to kitchen, also where they discard the dirty dishes, and where staff hangs out. I got a kale salad with chicken breast, had maybe 4 small thin slices. It was like a side salad for $17.00. My daughter got the fish and chips and said it was the best she had eaten. I would give it another chance, with reservations and order something else.

Had a birthday dinner here tonight before enjoying some live music across the road. Fantastic food and atmosphere. Many gluten free options and staff were very try helpful in confirming details about allergens and cross-contamination (they have a separate fryer for fries AND their wings appetizer!) We had a reservation for outside but ended up sitting at the bar to beat the heat. The servers at the bar were phenomenal - extremely personable and made great recommendations for both drinks and food. Would love to come back again any time!

What a gem! Great patio with great views, friendly staff, and delicious food. Simple as that!

The food was delicious and the staff is friendly… Not so much for the drinks… Super small glass of wine paid eight dollars for it. I even ordered a second glass and it came out just as small… So disappointing! It was like getting half a glass of wine. I don’t know why they were so cheap on the wine situation but that’s only the only reason why I’m giving it four stars everything else was great, but left with a downer on that.

Our first experience here was an absolute win. The food was awesome and so were the beers. We got one chicken sandwich and it was so delicious we actually ordered another right after finishing it. The views are spectacular and the staff was very kind. Our server Gabriel was pleasant and attentive. Definitely will be coming back especially for the sunset in the warmer months!

This is a very nice restaurant with quality food. It's all sourced locally and it's excellent. Really good fish and chips. The cassoulet is good but not like they serve in Toulouse.

Hamburger is fantastic, as is the slaw. Nice selection of drafts; they have a brown ale!

You might not imagine that a pub would have good breakfast options, but The Eddy does. You can get shrimp and grits, you can get a breakfast sandwich, or you can go for something more traditional like an omelette. Service is quick and no nonsense. They have comfortable seating outdoors, and ample amounts of it. The views are also quite pretty. Breakfast sandwich was pretty standard, with some ham, an egg done sunny side up and some bacon. They use a brioche bun, so you get a little bit of sweet and savory in your sandwich. The potatoes are nice because they have crumbled bacon in them and a nice paprika seasoning, but they were a little bit light on salt, so I might recommend getting some on the side.

I am upgrading my review to 5 stars. Today the restaurant was very busy and our service was outstanding just like the food. See my previous review for fuller details.

We will give this place another try, for the setting and the menu options if nothing else. But five of us had dinner here last night and every single thing was overcooked and over salted. The best part of the meal - from apps through entrees - was the side salad, if that tells you something. Very disappointing.

My best friend and I reserved an outdoor table here before a show on a Friday night in September. We were delighted by the view we had of the Haw river at sunset, and only mildly annoyed by a couple of bees that were just as interested in our drinks and entrees as we were. I rarely opt for a pork chop, but was satisfied nonetheless (I was secretly gunning for the accompanying roasted potatoes and veg). The food was decent, but the location, show venue proximity, and ambiance is what we will remember the most. Excellent service, although you should not plan to linger at your table after your meal.

We wanted to grab something to eat after staying in Mebane overnight, and as usual, my wife did her research. She chose the Eddy because it looked like just the kind of place we love. Excellent food in a quaint small town and within a renovated commercial building in an area we had not yet explored. We arrived in the small community of Saxapahaw which sits on the edge of the Haw river. We pulled up on the building that houses the Eddy Pub and immediately thought it was very cool. Without knowing the history of the building at the time, it appeared to be an old mill of some sort. As I said, my wife had done her research and learned it was highly recommended to make a reservation on the weekend especially. She was able to easily make a reservation early that same morning for 10am when they opened. We walked in a few minutes early and appeared to be the first customers of the day. We provided our name for the reservation and were immediately seated within this beautiful and cool space. We were told their menu was offered via QR code but were also asked if we would like a printed menu as well, which we appreciated. We were sat at a table for two against a wall of windows adjacent to an outdoor patio area. We began looking over the menu when our drink orders were taken by two young ladies, one of which was training the other. I tend to order lunch items while my wife enjoys breakfast and the brunch menu offered several great options for each of us. My wife chose the ---- omelette with fresh fruit as well as the biscuit with jelly while I chose the ----- hamburger with fries. We also ordered the pimento cheese fries which were highly recommended via the Yelp reviews. The pimento cheese fries arrived shortly after and looked delicious! We also liked the fact they were served in a small cast iron pan. Perfectly prepared, they were crisp and flavorful. We also noticed a small bottle on our table without a label and inquired with our servers. They told us it was a chipotle hot sauce. It looked great so we decided to give it a try. We really enjoyed it and did not find it too hot. We also learned this is one of the products available for purchase. Needless to say, a bottle came home with us. Our meals arrived a short time later and also looked fantastic. My wife enjoyed her omelette packed with lots of ingredients and the fresh fruit was great also. She also really enjoyed the biscuit with homemade jelly, she said it was perfect! My burger and fries was also very good. Our servers, were also extremely attentive and friendly. Honestly, everything about our experience was perfect! We will absolutely return and also feel this would be a great stop when we have family or friends visiting.

I've been spending a lot of time in my home county this past week so I've gotten to enjoy a load of my favorite spots.The Eddy never disappoints! My husband joined me on this trip. Being British, he of course took advantage of the shepherds pie that was the special of the night. I had the pot roast with horseradish creamed potatoes. As we typically do we ended up sharing both plates. So delicious! I love how they use local ingredients when they can, you really can taste the difference. It's how we eat at home so it's nice to be able to go to a restaurant and eat food of the same quality. We had excellent service, which is the norm. They really know how to take care of you here! Super spacious however make a reservation if you can because this is a very popular spot! Make sure to take time to Peru's around at the other places in this little shopping area. Grab a beer or coffee, a cocktail, some healthy meats and cheeses from the local butchery, and even some homemade bread or desserts from the general store!

The Eddy is a really cool spot in an old converted mill. The building itself is fascinating - didn't get to explore all of the tenants & business, but it seems well worth doing. I love the idea behind The Eddy - they list the sources & local farms behind their ingredients: very admirable stuff. The atmosphere is low-key casual, with a little bit of 'hip' thrown in. The service was good - a few people teaming together to serve the tables. The beers and drink were also pretty good - I imagine some come from the brewery on the lower level of the building. The food was Ok, every then-&-again one mis-orders. If you're in the area, you already likely know The Eddy, and if you're passing though - well, stop on in. And you can recommend it to your friends too.

Freaken awesome. I had the NC pan fried trout. Cooked perfectly, sweet creamy sauce complimented perfectly. The potato chips were dusted with parmesan, nice and crispy. Gail has the brunch chicken nachos, and loved 'em. I had a draft 'West coast' IPA that was ok. Very casual. They need to clean the upper windows facing the street. REALLY full of cobwebs. Well,maybe clean after Halloween?

I have been coming to the Eddy since 2014, and this sounds cliche, but it's not what it used to be. First, we were greeted by someone who had no people skills. They were overly concerned with reservations and less concerned about the customer. Yellow jackets were all over the place and it made it uncomfortable to sit outdoors, which is the best part. The soup was delivered without a spoon and the wait staff were casually enjoying side conversations. The water smells like fishing water; I couldn't get passed the smell. I ordered a sake and ginger beer. It was watery and flat. My friends beer was flat. They admitted to an issue with the keg and offered a new drink, but they never came back to fulfill their promise. The atmosphere was meh. If you come, go to the bar for faster service. People walked in 10 minutes after us and had food and drinks well before we did- with a reservation. It was my birthday so I'm probably feeling meh, but this place use to be amazing.

Beautiful space and a spectacular journey for the taste buds!! French fries are a perfect cut to hold on to the creamy pimento cheese! Savory and simple but so delicious. The French dip comes with a mustard sauce on the bun which cuts through what can be a heavier sandwich! Au jus was absolutely divine! The Brussels sprouts were the highlight for me! They were prepared tender crisp, can't wait to go back and have those again We also had their Fall Sangria, this is a delight as well. I can see how this drink could be problematic for some it is soooooo good. I could have easily had several glasses. So well done!

This was the worst brunch experience I've ever had. We waited over an hour for our food to come out and all of our orders were incorrect and had to be remade and was still wrong but we didn't want to wait any longer. The food was so bad that we left most of it. Based on our experience they should have comped our bill but didn't. We definitely won't be back.

Very solid, good food and drinks! Fresh ingredients and overall a great experience! We sat at the bar before a concert and had a great meal! Service was great too. If we're ever back in the area, we will definitely return.

We stopped at the Eddy Pub while searching for a quick lunch during a recent road trip to the Durham area. My friend had brunch here before and she recommended it. The atmosphere was nice. It gave me tree house vibes. There were plants everywhere and loads of wood. My friend got the House Pretzel with the Beer Cheese as a starter. The Beer Cheese was kinda strange. I felt that it was more like Big Mac sauce to me than any beer cheese I've had before. My friends weren't impressed either. We all ordered sandwiches for our entrees. My friends got the Mini Burger add fries and the Buffalo Fried Chicken Sandwich and fries. I got the Grilled Farm Burger and fries. I asked for the mango chutney on the side, no Mayo and added onions. There was an up charge for the onions because they are locally sourced. The mango chutney was good with the fries. I had some left over and spread it on the sandwich. I couldn't really taste it because of the Lusty Monk mustard. The burger was super juicy and had good flavor to the meat. Service was standard. I was able to pay online which was very convenient. I would return in the future.

Cute pub with lots of outdoor seating. Unfortunately, without a reservation we were stuck on the outdoor patio that had zero shade. It got pretty toasty under the direct sun and all we could do was about 45 minutes with a little sunburn. The service was friendly but the food wasn't very good. We only got a couple appetizers to share while we sipped on our drinks. The warm green goddess spinach dip had an odd flavor. It almost tasted like it had cinnamon in it and that's just not a flavor one expects with spinach dip nor was it a welcome flavor for a dip. Then there was our house pretzel with cheese dip. The pretzel was just fine, can't really go wrong with a pretzel but the beer cheese was oddly chunky. It was as if it had curdled. Not good. But I guess people don't really come to Saxapahaw for the pub but rather to hang out by the water. Oh well. Noted.

Our food was amazing. We brought guests with us and boy were they wowed! Everyone loved the taste of their food. We miss the tacos removed from the menu and prefer the previous menu to the new one; however, the burgers were so lean it was the first time my husband and I could eat hamburgers without any indigestion. What was as sweet as the delicious homemade key lime pie was our server Chasity! Our original server left without telling us her shift was up, that she enjoyed meeting us and that we would be in great hands with Chasity. (I recommend that step be included in the duties of all servers.) Chasity walked up and told us she would be taking care of us for the rest of our meal. Neither of the two servers knew that one of the individuals at our table was fighting a serious cancer. Chasity was like an Angel who offered a bubbly personality, and amazing service. She is one of the best servers we have met at this restaurant--although they all are good. As we were leaving, we walked to the patio to view the river -- Chasity came along and took a group photo for us with our phones. Praying to God it won't be the last time we all are together. But even if it was, our memories from today will last forever. Thank you Chasity and those in the kitchen who really make a difference in the lives of others and those who dine at the Eddy!

Fried catfish - very good, great crispy batter Chips / french fries - great, crispy, homemade Hush puppies - wheat flour instead of cornmeal? Cooked perfectly Flatbread - very white and on the heavy side with chicken flavored with some bacon and ranch, more like a small pizza than a very thin crispy flatbread but still good Burger - a good burger The food was very good, filling, large portions. A bit more bar-foody than the menu reads. On the menu, the items seem on the sophisticated cheffy side such as mango salsa/chutney on the burger but then the burger kind of just tasted like it had a sweet ketchup which was good. The sauces all seemed homemade which means the "ketchup" tasted like a smooth house tomato condiment, not Heinz; the honey mustard was amazing with a bite; the tartar sauce was not out of a bottle but had a fresh possibly sour cream base, very good; hot sauce spicy and flavorful. The Saturday afternoon was not busy though the whole plaza area was busy perhaps with hikers and wedding guests for the next-door venue. The service was a little unprofessional but ultimately good. We had to ask for our bill and the table clearing was late though did not bother our enjoyment. Great location with the shops to walk through and the next-door brewery.

Saxapahaw is such a cute little town, and The Eddy Pub seems to only add to the charm. Having driven past this spot a few times and after researching their COVID protocols, my husband and I confidently made The Eddy Pub our first venture back to indoor dining in over a year. Overall, it was a really solid choice! The pub itself is full of casual charm with large windows, plants (which are also there to help purify the air), and an inviting bar and patio. The indoor space is a bit smaller than I expected, and because I sometimes require the use of a wheelchair, I noted that although there is a ramp leading to the establishment, it's a steep one and the hostess stand is shaped in such a way that it may be difficult to maneuver around - thankfully I wasn't in need of my wheelchair when I stopped by, but it is something I will be mindful of in the future. There may be a side or back door that can also be used for handicap accessibility, but keep in mind that the space is small, so it's going to feel a bit cumbersome regardless. The staff was friendly from the get-go, both when making the reservation (which they definitely recommend) and in person. The precautions they are taking to ensure customer and staff safety are extensive: mandatory mask wearing when not at your table, online ordering and paying via your phone, barriers placed between some of the tables, and increased air circulation. For an appetizer we ordered their pupusas which come with a lovely homemade hot sauce (think more enchilada sauce and less Texas Pete). Although the pupusas did not have the same crispy exterior I am accustomed to, they were super flavorful and tasty. I would happily order these again. Sadly, the kitchen did not realize the pupusas were to be the appetizer, and they were brought out with our entrees, but that's okay. For our main courses, we both had the fish and chips. I'll be honest, James loved this dish but it didn't quite wow me. The breading was light and super crispy, almost reminding me of tempura but not quite, and the fish was fresh. I think the fish was catfish, though don't quote me on it. The texture of the fish was a bit wetter than I am used to - not undercooked, just a bit less flaky. I'm a sucker for cornmeal crusted catfish because a lot of flavor can be packed into a cornmeal batter, so perhaps these are the reasons why it wasn't quite a home run for me personally. The hand cut fries were really delicious, especially when dipped in malt vinegar. I definitely see myself returning to The Eddy in the future. Prices are fair for a nice, casual dinner out and the menu is small but varied. The dessert specials sounded especially appealing, so I look forward to trying those next time.

A total bust! Recognizing it was Mother's Day, we made a reservation and specifically asked not to be near the kitchen. We asked to be outside. I was assured we could when we arrived. We were seated next to the kitchen! I asked the hostess if we could move she said it was that table or it's under the music , we decided to stay where we were. When my daughter ordered, she told the waitress she was allergic to all onions. The first thing she ordered contained onions and the waitress came back and told her that so she ordered a breakfast sandwich which was so small the size of a dinner roll. We waited almost 55 minutes for our order. We were all served cold omelettes, and the sandwich contain onions. We left! Avoid this place as it's really gone down hill

I hate to leave bad reviews but this was unavoidable. We had a reservation for 8 in our party - all of us were meeting up from out of town. 3 of us got sick after eating here. Service was terrible - items we ordered were forgotten, no refills on any drinks. We had brought a cake for the birthday - no one told us about the cake fee of $2 per person. But they made sure to tell us we had to leave after an hour and 15 minutes. They have a big sign that says it too. The restaurant was MAYBE 25% full. I can see this if it is a restaurant in Manhattan with fully booked reservations. But on a slow Sunday? Totally rude staff. And an automatic gratuity of 20% for the large party. We tip 20% or more always for good service. But rude, poor service? Yikes. 3 of us getting sick after was really the icing on the cake. We'll never be back here unfortunately!

We ordered online for a Sunday pickup at around Noon. The order process was super simple. Paid with a credit card. Called when we got there and someone brought our order out to our car. We were headed to a picnic and when we arrived we didn't have any napkins OR utensils !! Didn't think that was something you had to ask for , but keep that in mind if you are eating your to go food in a TO GO place ! All of the food we had was tasty. I had the Korean beef sandwich. Hubby had the fish (catfish) and chips. My daughter and her BF split a burger and the BLAT. They said all was tasty. Hubby ate his coke slaw with his fingers. Not the best .......... Eddy Pub is located in a very cool little area that we are looking forward to visiting when we can. I think there is outdoor seating.

Not what it used to be. We've enjoyed the innovative food at the Eddy Pub since 2018, but our last several visits have been lackluster. The food used to be interesting, flavorful, and always on point. Recently the menu has offered nothing new or interesting. The small plate section is down to three average items and even the weekend brunch menu lacks exciting or new items. It would be okay if the food was still well prepared, but that hasn't been our recent experience. Outside of the potatoes. They all still rock. I ordered my last dish without black beans and it came covered with them. Someone else dropped the plates off and our server didn't return until the end of the meal. It's fine but not a destination anymore. Good thing Saxapahaw General Store is close!

I really had high expectations for this place based on prior reviews and photos. However, upon arrival our waitress was rude and not friendly, along with being non- attentive. One of our friends ordered grits and asked for a spoon several times so that he could eat them. He was never brought a spoon and ultimately ended up eating cold grits with a coffee spoon. Some of our friends ordered pancakes and it does not come with syrup. You must pay $2 for a small cup of syrup (photo attached). On Sunday's this place does not serve alcohol until 12p, even though bloody Mary's are on the brunch menu. There is not disclaimer that you cannot order alcohol until 12p. I wish the waitress would have been nicer when we attempted to order a drink. She immediately got defensive and an attitude. We didn't know.... Also we were then told we had a time constraint and needed to order ASAP. We were not aware that we had a time constraint when we made the reservation and would have made it for a different time if we had been aware of a time constraint. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this place nor will I be back.

Well first off we had reservations. When seated you have the table for 90 minutes. Talk about pressure. They came over almost immediately for our drink order. I felt nervous. Kept looking at my watch, thinking do we have to eat fast??? Would we have time for appetizers?? We ordered a few different dishes so we could try some things that we heard about. Tried the shepherds pie. Actually it's cottage pie cause it was beef not lamb. Not your traditional pie. Had a bbq kinda taste. Small portion . The all American burger was cooked perfectly but I didn't care for the honey mustard. Did like the Brussel sprouts as my side. The veggie burger was very earthy. I would say a lot of beets made up that patty. It was ok. The meatloaf was good but again small portion for the price. The vegetarian chili was ok. All that time we felt like our time was running out. I think it was because our server came around a lot. She was friendly enough, but it felt rushed. Meanwhile plenty of empty tables. This as you can see bothered me. Maybe this works for them, but not me. My life is rushed, I don't need to be reminded while out paying for dinner. Maybe they rather turn over tables quickly but For our group we left feeling rushed !

Went to brunch with some girlfriends. We were about 10 minutes late. It was a few minutes before they served alcohol so when we ordered the server told us we would have to wait till 12 to get it. Cool. That's valid. What we didn't like was a few minutes after that a hostess coming over and saying- "I must remind you. There is a reservation here at 1 pm, so just want you to know that. " It was 12 pm at that point and were just waiting on our server to take our order. I was thinking in my head well that was not necessary at the current moment. Also we had already seen the signs hanging up that brunch reservations were for 1 hour 15 Minutes. I don't know, just didn't feel like that was a great way to start the service. We were all a little perplexed at that. Needless to say we ate, stuck to one drink and were out of there at 12:45. She came by to say- oh we can extend your reservation, we pushed back the other one and we were like nah we are good. We had already made plans to go somewhere else after being treated like that. We were happy to let another establishment have our money we would have spent on more alcohol. Food was okay. Nothing earth shattering for brunch. Biscuit was nice. The sausage and gravy I didn't care for. It was actually Probly better but I had a butter taste in my mouth from the comment from earlier.

First time here and I think I found a gem! We were in for a late lunch. We sat outside on the patio, even though they did have seating available in the dining room. The staff wore masks and were wonderful. We had two servers helping us and they were both very friendly. The view on the rooftop patio is awesome and unique. They have herbs and plants growing on it. So cool. There drink menu is expansive. I wasn't planning on having a drink until I saw all the different sake options they had. I was so surprised. They even had a sake mojito! I'll have to try that next time. I got a can of the Yomi Sake, my friend got a glass of white wine, and my other friend ordered a beer. All drinks were great! We also all ordered the grilled farm burger with a side of pimento cheese fries and we also got the house pretzel. The burgers did not come out with the temperatures we requested, but they were still delicious. The table favorite was defintiely the skillet of pimento cheese fries and the house made ketchup. The house pretzel was a little disappointing. A little small and lacking flavor. I will definitely be back to sample some more of the intriquing menu and drink options.

First off make reservations before you come, or if your passing by just call to see if they have seating. I have been here a handful of times. They take a lot of precaution with covid. The service is pretty good. I love the atmosphere here, it really fits the area! They use locally sourced foods, you can really taste the freshness, especially in the veggies! For brunch we got the huevos rancheros, it's like a breakfast taco, it's good. Yess they have mimosas! For lunch I usually go for a burger, good as well. The cocktails are average. I would have to say it's the atmosphere for me! Parking can be difficult, so be patient!

We weren't expecting to dine at The Eddy Pub, but 1 look at their outdoor space, we decided to toss caution to the wind. The food was very good, the portions were quite generous, but the real standout was our servers. Charlotte and Evan took great care of us and couldn't have been sweeter. Today , going to a restaurant is a crap shoot. Will there be enough staff, can we get our food in a timely manner, the answer to those questions is most definitely, YES! Take a day trip to Saxapahaw on a Saturday afternoon. Eat at the Eddy Pub, then go across the street and enjoy live music in a park setting. Your welcome.

I ate at The Eddy a few years ago, the food was fantastic. My only complaint was it was very loud in the restaurant. They had live music but when the music wasn't playing it was loud. I went again for the first time in a couple years. It was much quieter this time but the quality of the food had gone down. It was ok but nothing of the caliber of my previous visit unfortunately. I'd go again but just for something different.

Love the vibe with great views over the river. The staff is fantastic and always make me feel welcome when I walk through the door. The food is consistently fresh and beautifully prepared. My favorite is the chicken breast with two sides. Best chicken ever.

I love this place. The food is different every time I go, which isn't nearly often enough. They have great outdoor eating, but once the sun sets there is NO light other than a little solar lamp they set on your table. They have a very good wine list and beer choices. The guacamole was delicious, and I love their homemade chips. They ran out of it soon after we ordered it, so get there early to be able to partake! The asparagus risotto was just a bit too sticky and gloppy, but had good flavor if you could get past the texture. The trout cakes were very good! The salad was also perfect in that it had just the right amount of ingredients, and the amount of dressing was spot on. We also had the pecan bourbon pie which was not overly sweet, which is how I prefer my pecan pie. The service was also wonderful.

Family of 3 ate for $59.77 including appetizer and before tip. Stinking AMAZING food! The French dip had the best au-juiou sauce. The Brussel Sprouts are some of the best I've had, charred to perfection and we couldn't figure out the oil bath they were served in but the flavor was UNREAL and I'm not usually a fan of them. The place has a very trendy vibe, rustic eloquence about it. You could have a date night here or just a great social meal for sure. The chef has all their sauces, dips and spices figured out. We will absolutely be coming back.

Stopped by with my family after a cooking class with the chef. Love the atmosphere with the converted building. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken. It was good but there was a spice flavoring on it I could have done with out. The bread was delicious. My husband ordered the burger and it was delicious. The rest of our part order the veggie burger and also thoroughly enjoyed it.

We took a day road trip to the area for lunch after many suggestions from friends. We decided to eat at the Eddy after checking out the menu. We were instantly seated and greeted by our waitress. Our service was outstanding for our visit. Brunch and lunch options were being served but we opted for lunch choices since we had already had breakfast earlier. We started with the NC pimento cheese fries. They were amazingly good! I've never thought to melt pimento cheese on fries. The salty cheese was perfect with the fry. I would love to recreate this at home! My husband and daughter split the cheese and charcuterie board. They also ordered a beer pretzel. It was a well stocked cheese board and the jam that came with it was outstanding! The opted for several cheeses, all from NC. I ordered the fish and chips. It came with three huge pieces of perfectly fried NC catfish. The coleslaw was flavorful and the fries were cooked perfectly. The dipping sauce was a really good homemade tartar sauce with capers. So delicious! Overall we were thrilled with our lunch and service and would definitely visit again!

We made reservations several months in advance by calling. Then, we gave an update on the number of guests (5) via the "Resy " online system in their website. Table, food, and waiter were great, but after spending 1.5 hours there, a girl (I guess manager) came over and told us, "You have to go. Another party is coming in." That's how she said it. It really made my friends want to never ho there again. I do not suggest you go there for brunch. They want you to eat quickly and get out!

Stopped in to the Eddy Pub for a Saturday brunch/lunch and was not disappointed! The inside is nicely decorated and has a great feel. Our waitress, Lydia, was wonderful and attentive. We ordered the house pretzel to start which was just a good standard pretzel. I got the flatbread and it was AMAZING!! I wish it was warmer when I visited so we could have sat outside because the patio overlooks the Haw River. I do recommend a reservation as the restaurant is on the smaller side and fills up fast.

Every time I frequent this establishment, it never fails to impress. There is always something unique and different on the menu, and I've yet to order anything which has disappointed. Even the traditional pub fare exceeds expectations. It is a tad off of the beaten path, but for me, that adds to its quaintness and overall dining experience. It is definitely worth the drive to this little hideaway out in the country and you should plan an evening to go out to experience. I did book a table through their online reservation system, which, for this night actually turned out not to be necessary, however I'd recommend just in case to do so because it can be busy. It would be awful to make the trek only to find out you've got an hour's wait. For dinner this past evening, I had a carrot gnocchi dish which was filling but not heavy, and bursting with flavors. My dinner companion order the spicy pad-thai, and said it was incredible. We ate indoors, but afterwards were able to move to their outdoor patio to enjoy the sunset over the Haw River. This establishment has earned one of my few (if ever) 5 star reviews. Well done Eddy Pub!

Refreshingly good. We were on tour in this area for a while, and our local guide felt like he was tapped out with the restaurant recommendations. We had been to The General Store obviously, and a variety of other places in Graham, Burlington, Mebane, and even Durham. It just seemed like we had hit a dead end when it came to places worth eating at, until our guide said "Oh wait, there's that other place in the old mill on the Haw River. We patiently waited while he remembered the name, but our trusty pocket computing devices had the answer! Apparently North Carolina had just recently "opened" back up from the COVID shutdowns, so people were pretty leery about congregating in groups of more than two. We had THREE!!! When we showed up, the place was empty, and quickly we thought we had made a mistake. Surely this is the place that our guide couldn't remember the name of, right? Referencing back to my statement about the COVID closures, it appeared that people were just scared to come out, and rightfully so. The Eddy appeared to have social distancing and cleanliness worked out though. Looking at the menu, you notice that it isn't just traditional pub fare which is great for me, but not great for one of the people we were dining with tonight. Apparently this guy isn't as much of a foodie as we were led to believe. He whined a little bit, and complained a bit more, but we were here to stay. Sorry! What I ordered was beyond flavorful, as was everything else at the table. This place may have been slow because of The Virus, but they were still firing on all cylinders it appeared. Take your traditional pub food and ratchet it up a couple notches, because that what this place seems to have as their signature. Dishes done beyond the traditional ho-hum, and a nice rethink of what you've had in the past. This is one of the places on our tour that I look forward to coming back for.

Wonderful stop for a roof top meal on a sunny day! Love the fish and chips! Very hip atmosphere. Lots of couples spotted here as well as families! Some weekends there are free concerts in the amphitheater a few feet away!

We were looking for a place for Sunday brunch, and the location was convenient for our group. We were pleased that they took reservations. The restaurant is on the top floor of an old building that overlooks the Haw River. The vibe inside was casual and kid-friendly, and they had our table ready for us when we arrived. The service was awesome; Malaina went over and above to serve us. Our food was delicious and the servings were generous. Our family looks forward to our next visit!

Yes, this is one of few restaurants you will find in this tiny town. I have been going for several years as it was a weekend treat when I attended college at Elon University. The menu is always changing with lots of local food options. I always enjoy the food but this time it wasn't phenomenal. I had the mushroom risotto with chicken. Honestly, the chicken was the best part. The risotto and sauce had hardly any flavor. May I just ordered the wrong thing that night - lessoned learned - always get the pimento cheese fries! Our service this night was terrible! We wanted to order wine but don't see our server again until our food was brought out. She hardly came by our table. The restaurant is not that big and they weren't that busy on a Sunday night. I hope to go back in the future and have a better experience. If you do try out The Eddy Pub, I do recommend allowing yourself enough time to go to the General Store and walk around the river. Such a special place!

We love the breakfast biscuit: delicious sausage and eggs and flaky buttery biscuit.... and huge enough for a voracious 17-year old guy to feel content after eating

My brother works here. They treat their employees great which leads to a great dining experience. A great beer selection only steps from the Haw River Ballroom concert venue. Never had a bad meal from here.
