Delight in Chapel Hill Fine Dining at The Carolina Crossroads

The Carolina Crossroads Restaurant is a rare southern jewel. Nestled in the historic Carolina Inn, Crossroads joins the graceful traditions of the south with progressive new American cuisine. Adorned with numerous awards including a AAA 4 Diamond Award, Wine Spectator Award of Excellence and Forbes Four Star Service Award, this cozy fine dining atmosphere and menu is unparalleled. The traditionally appointed bar, complete with leather chairs and warming fireplace is a favored way to start any evening.

The main dining room serves seasonal menus that emphasize local ingredients from Chapel Hill and the surrounding area. Dinner and dessert are meticulously planned and hand crafted by our Executive Chef Reale and his staff.

Executive Chef, Jimmy Reale has always felt strongly about the use of local organic and sustainable products. We are lucky to be surrounded by a wide variety of dedicated local farmers in Chapel Hill. Jimmy fully supports buying local not just because it's the right thing to do but because it tastes better.

Crossroads is the perfect restaurant for special gatherings of friends, family or business associates. Please let our professional staff assist in planning your next dining event. Delight your guests with our tantalizing cuisine, impeccable service and atmosphere of quiet elegance.
