We had a late lunch at this restaurant, which is housed in a beautiful historic property in charming Valle Cruces, NC. Service was friendly and efficient. The menu is varied, with emphasis on fresh, locally sourced vegetables and meats. The four of us were very happy with our choices. Portions were ample and were attractively plated. Most lunch menu items... More

We enjoyed a fantastic lunch. The meal was suburb and the farmhouse was a beautiful restored building. Our waiter was very helpful and seemed to love his job. If we were in this area this restaurant would be a must!

This is a lovely place to eat. They are only open during the winter for dinner Thursday thru Saturday and brunch/lunch on Sundays. Toward the end of May they are open different days and hours. Food is very good and our server, Brian, was very pleasant. The chicken cabernet was delicious! My husband had the pork tenderloin and said it... More

We are so pleased you enjoyed your visit to The 1861! We hear this a lot about our banana pudding, which is an old family friend's recipe from Charleston. Just to clarify, we are open through the winter for lunch Thursday-Sunday, and for dinner Thursday-Saturday. Beginning MAY 1st, we will be open for lunch EVERY DAY! We serve a fabulous... More

We enjoyed the food, service, atmosphere, and of coarse the wine! We will definitely recommend this restaurant to others. Good luck at "Fire on the Rock"!

It helps us to be better parents and reminds us that our busy lives are held together by our partnership and marriage. We stayed in Valle Crucis this year and stopped in a the Farmhouse for dinner. The farmhouse is... More

My husband and I had a very pleasant surprise when we took a long romantic weekend over to Valle Crucis, North Carolina. We had eaten lunch at the 1861 Farmhouse and Winery a couple of times and had been very impressed with the food. This was to be our first experience with dinner which I must say was excellent. We...

My husband and I went here while we were going to all the wineries in the area. We decided to do the wine tasting and then stop and eat lunch. The house is very cute and quaint. There is a nice little bar area to do the tasting...you must stand. We tried 7 or 8 wines for for $7 or... More

My girlfriend and I found a fabulous restaurant when we came upon the 1861 Farmhouse and Winery. It is a fantastic dining experience in North Carolina. From the beautiful setting along Broadstone Rd you will find 1861 to be very idyllic. From a welcome greeting by the staff, usually the owners Alison or Steve, sets the atmosphere for the dining...

1861 Farmhouse is close to Boone and in the charming location of Valle Crucis. The food is the best we have had in the area- either sandwiches or the entrees. We are very picky and think this restaurant has it all- fantastic food, good service, charming atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant and even if you don't eat, sit out... More

Just went to 1861 Farmhouse for Valentine's dinner. Absolutely delicious. The steak was the best ever for me. The 5 course meal was on target. Bacon chocolate cake! I would return for dinner or lunch. Very nice meal.
