Things To Do
The Downtown Grille
Lovely upscale restaurant that's relatively new and delicious! Great sourcing from local producers and seasonal dishes.
Mozelles
Those who were here in 2014 know what it is! Still solid food and a cozy atmosphere. A block down the street from our welcome party location if you want to get dinner here before popping over for drinks.
Bernardin’s Restaurant at the Zevely House
Across the street from Mozelle's, so just a block from our welcome party location if you wanted to grab dinner here beforehand! Good food from our experience. If its a nice evening, request to sit under their covered patio.
Rooster's Wood-fired Kitchen Winston Salem
Solid food just off of Highway 421/Stratford Road. We went here for our anniversary last year and they put down a white tablecloth just for our table and placed curled ribbons on it. LOL.
Young Cardinal Cafe and Co.
Probably the best brunch spot in town! No reservations and there's usually a line, but don't be deterred! Put your name on the list and walk down to Camino for coffee while you wait.
That Place in the West End
Great for a casual bite! If you grab a beer next door at Joymongers Barrel Hall, you can order their food online and it will be delivered to you at the brewery.
Bobby Boy Bakeshop
THE best pastries in the 336 and we do not say that lightly. We can't recommend it highly enough. Note: not open on Sundays. Don't be deterred by the line! It's worth it! The other half of the shop also turns into a cute wine bar called Caviste in the afternoon and evenings. A second location also just opened at 845 S Poplar Street!
Sayso Coffee
No frills coffee shop right on the edge of Old Salem. Would highly recommend grabbing a coffee here and strolling through Old Salem one morning!
The Remedy Cafe and Bar
Cute coffee shop in our neighborhood that serves beer, wine, cocktails, and little bites throughout the day and evening!
Little Pep
Best wine bar in town! Erin is a member of the wine club and had her birthday soiree here in December. It's a great addition to Trade Street and the owners are very knowledgeable.
Fair Witness Fancy Drinks
One of our favorite cocktail bars. Cozy and fun atmosphere with affordable drinks. Right on the corner of Bailey Park (two blocks from The Kimpton Hotel).
Wise Man Brewing
Been around Winston longer than we have! Still a great place to grab a few beers. For our gluten-free friends, Wise Man offers a great blonde called "Scoop Dogg" that's as close to GF as you can get!
Stuart & Emma Thomas Memorial Trail @ Crossnore
If you want to do a hike while staying in town, we highly recommend the Stuart & Emma Thomas Memorial Trail. It's right across from the Coffee Park Airstream on Reynolda Road and perfect for a stroll on a beautiful day!
Reynolda Gardens & Trails
Reynolda Gardens should be beautiful this time of year! They're free and open to the public, as are the trails. If you want to go for a nice walk, we'd recommend it.
