The Fearrington House Restaurant

Excellent all around, but the inability to veer from the preset multi course menu warrants a 4 star rating. $150 base fee per guest with roughly three option selection for each course - went for anniversary so we went all out, but I would like to return, I just can confidently say I will not unless I’m able to purchase independent courses in the future and I’m sure numerous others share this sentiment.

The bar wasn’t great. The burger was tiny, and the 4 cocktails we had weren’t well-balanced. On the other hand, my wife’s cod was amazing. Atmosphere was uncomfortable quiet. They should turn up the music so personal conversations don’t echo awkwardly across the room. We were both hungry even though it was a very expensive meal, and we picked up a pizza after leaving…

I chose the Fearrington House to propose to my beautiful fiancé on Oct 28th, 2023. What started as a simple plan to propose there evolved into so much more and we would really like to recognize several people by name. Watson was at the helm the entire time and ensured that not only was this story perfect, but personal as well. Watson went out of his way to ensure my elaborate proposal plan went off without a hitch. Kara and Caitlyn created Bridgerton themed pastries and tea sandwiches that were jaw dropping in their presentation. And finally, Janaya and Caleb offered top notch service like I’ve never experienced before. All of this was possible because of prompt email response and even a face to face meeting with the staff. I cannot recommend this place enough. I’ve honestly never experienced anything like this. Thank you so much!

I went for afternoon tea with my 7 year old daughter, Mom, and sister. We got to sit in a little enclave with its own table and windows looking out onto the patio. The atmosphere was wonderful. The interior decorating was beautiful, and the chairs were very comfortable. The food was presented beautifully and was delicious. You think you'll be able to eat everything since they are each quite small but I found that I could only taste everything before getting full. I was able to take home my leftovers to eat later. I loved the fact that everyone gets their own pot of tea, whether it's a different tea or the same as everyone else. They do get booked pretty quickly, so if you have a specific date in mind, I'd suggest calling a couple of months in advance. While my 7 year old did perfectly, I wouldn't bring children unless they are well-behaved and not prone to acting out. It is a very calm and adult atmosphere, and there is nothing to entertain children other than table conversation. This is also not a cheap outing but is well worth the price. Our table of four was around $250 after tip. Overall, this was a very charming lunch out, and I would highly recommend it. I plan on incorporating a monthly tea outing into my social schedule.

This was a tremendous experience all around! Each course was fabulous. Although the main course felt a little weaker. Each amuse bouche, and courses one and two were just phenomenal. The chocolate souffle was by far the greatest chocolate souffle I've ever had in my life. They are defying all odds with that dish and it's no wonder it has been on the menu for 34 years. One of the only downsides of the Fearrington House restaurant, is the atmosphere is a little stifling. Our server was incredible and welcoming, although it is just so quiet in there. We felt like we couldn't have a normal conversation without everyone hearing us. Nonetheless we had an amazing night. And oh my gosh we had white port. Which I honestly didn't even know was a thing. Now I want it all the time!

I recently visited The Fearrington House Restaurant for the second time and once again, it exceeded my expectations. The first time I visited was for my anniversary and I knew I had to come back to experience the exquisite menu and cozy atmosphere once again. The quality of the food is simply outstanding. Each dish is crafted with care and precision, using only the freshest and most flavorful ingredients. From the appetizers to the entrees, every bite was bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked to perfection. The wine list is extensive and carefully curated, with a wide variety of options to suit any taste. But what really sets The Fearrington House Restaurant apart is the ambience. The restaurant is located in a beautiful country setting. The interior is equally as stunning, with elegant decor and soft lighting that creates a romantic and intimate atmosphere. The service is impeccable, with the waitstaff attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and wine list. The attention to detail and personalized touch truly made our dining experience unforgettable. Overall, I highly recommend The Fearrington House Restaurant for anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. The food, ambience, and service are all top-notch and will leave you feeling satisfied and pampered. I can't wait to visit again!
