Rather than give you a complete listing of restaurants in the Chapel Hill area, we thought we recommend some of our favorites...
For some classic UNC atmosphere (dining hall notwithstanding), visit
Spanky's Restaurant & Bar (101 E. Franklin) or walk across the street to
Top of the Hill (100 E. Franklin) for a great view from their rooftop bar.
For cheap Italian, visit the sketchy
Pepper's Pizza (107 E. Franklin) or the slightly-less sketchy
Franklin Street Pizza & Pasta (163 E. Franklin). If you have a car, go to
Brixx (501 Meadowmont Village) and check out their extensive beer selection, too.
For some local flavor,
Mama Dip's (408 W. Rosemary) offers Southern soul food.
Allen & Son's (6203 Millhouse Rd) is a bit of a drive, but it has some of the best North Carolina BBQ in the area.
After a late-night Franklin Street crawl, visit
Cosmic Cantina (128 E. Franklin) for cheap bean burritos and nachos.
Time Out (133 W. Franklin) is another local late-night favorite, though we'd only advise going while slightly inebriated.
Finally, for some post-wedding breakfast, go to
Ye Olde Waffle Shop (173 E. Franklin) or
Breadmen's (324 W Rosemary). Venture into the People's Republic of Carrboro for a delicious Southern breakfast at
Elmo's Diner (101 E Weaver St, Carrboro).
