The Pittsboro Music Scene
Pittsboro may not yet be as well known as Raleigh, Durham, Carrboro & Chapel Hill for music, but it’s happening, and not just a little bit, a lot! Not only do we have a lot of live music seven days a week in downtown Pittsboro, Shakori Hills is just down the road in the gorgeous Chatham County countryside with several festivals a year! You will be surprised, and hopefully delighted. You can readily combine gift, thrift, art, books and antique shopping with live music every Pittsboro First Sunday!

Local Ownership – Greg Lewis
Local owner Greg Lewis and his family completed significant work updating the restaurant and began the process of establishing a sustainable enterprise that strengthens the community, is a cultural and social center, and becomes a major draw for the town of Pittsboro and Chatham County. No small order, and well-on-track to fulfilling the promise.
