Modern Southern Cuisine and a great atmosphere in downtown Boone. The building used to be the old jailhouse! Great southern fried chicken, sweet potato casserole and delicious veggies. Eat inside, outside under the trees (seasonally) or on the glassed-in porch.
Call ahead for hours, as they tend to be sporadic.

Don't let the location in Boone Mall deter you. A good food menu (I'd recommend the brussels sprout appetizer with balsamic. Their barbecue tacos are delicious too, as well as their flatbreads!) They have a stylish bar and also room to sit outside under a covered patio and enjoy Boone's weather.

The original Mast General store, creaky floors and all. The post office is still a working post office, and in the colder months there's a wood stove burning inside you can sit around and play checkers while you drink a soda and eat snacks. It's really fun.

My favorite antique store in Boone. You'll have to find and pay for parking on King Street, but parking downtown Boone is really cheap. This store has 3 levels of vintage and antique goods, and great prices. I always find something fun.

Coffee
Hatchet is the best coffee in Boone! They roast their own and specialize in lighter roasted coffees that capture flavors like no other. If you're into specialty beverages, Hatchet always creates a seasonal menu of espresso drinks featuring fresh ingredient combinations that'll win you over. If you prefer a pure coffee experience, I recommend the Cortado. Savor it. Love it. I'm a huge fan.
