| The Williamston area boasts a number of colorful restaurants and diners. All offer an authentic flavor of the coastal plain. |
Cypress Grill, on the banks of the Roanoke River is open only when the herring are running (from early January until late April). Showcased on National Public Radio as one of the few remaining fishing shacks.
R&C has not changed since 1950. Called one of North Carolina’s best diners by Our State magazine.
Griffin’s Quick Lunch, a favorite of the locals. At one time it was the best place to go when you went uptown to the tobacco market. Be sure to order the banana fritters.
