What a cool combo - enjoy a delicious meal and gaze upon/buy some local art. 🍽🍺🖼We are honored to always be showing beautiful pieces by local artists. If any of the art we have on our walls sparks an interest, feel free to let your server know! All the artwork we display is for sale, and if you love something you can bring it home that same day.

Wow - here's a cool look back at Saluda's Main Street from the '60s! 🆒 📸 Looks familiar, doesn't it? Because of this, the National Register of Historic Places recognized the tiny downtown as a historic district in 1996. These buildings are still greeting people - filled with restaurants and shops that bring Main Street to life. See for yourself... firstpeaknc.com/saluda-nc-blue-ridge-mountains/Downtown Saluda in the 1960s, from historicsaluda.org (click through from link in bio). What do you notice that’s different from today? (Aside from the vehicles 😉) NOTE: The majority of shops and businesses are following recommended protocols to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. We ask everyone to do their part in keeping locals and visitors alike safe at this time. We’re going to get through this, together! #saludanc #downtownsaluda #mainstreetusa #saluda1960s #blueridgemountains #828isgreat #saluda #visitnc #northcarolinahistory #saludahistory #historicsaluda #historicsaludanc #spotthedifference
