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 our 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 constantly changes with the seasons and reflects the extensive planning efforts of Chef Bedford and our organic farmer Anne Stomp. Bedford's signature dishes include Wild Garlic Carolina Gold Risotto with Apple & Vanilla Jam, Roasted Beef Tenderloin with Boulangère Potatoes & Thyme Sauce, and for dessert, the legendary Hot Chocolate Soufflé, first introduced by Edna Lewis in 1983.

The Fearrington House holds the distinction of being the only AAA Five Diamond restaurant in the nation that is also Certified Green™ by the Green Restaurant Association. We are extremely pleased to have been ranked a top 50 restaurant in the US, based on more than two million reviews by OpenTable diners (read our reviews).

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