Timberlake's And Headwaters Pub

Staying in town at Blowing Rock and drove over for breakfast. Beautiful property and restaurant. Not busy but took forever to get our food and then check, just not good service overall. Portions were large and filling, potato wedges were tasty. However, my omelet was more like an egg scramble and greasy, the biscuit was dry and hard.

Aside from the setting, this was a disappointment. The food was OK, but the smokey BBQ sauce on my chop sure tasted like Sweet Baby Rays. Many tables around us were having service issues with their meals. A high end mountain restaurant with no IPA's on the menu? One and out for us, much like our experience at The Beacon and Basils.

A little disappointed. Made a reservation for early dinner last Tuesday. They were out of 3 main options on menu. No Trout, Rabbit or Snapper. How is it possible to be out of mainstay product late afternoon/ early evening? They weren't busy so can't blame an excess volume of customers. The DLT was good and the Scallops dish was good, but not hot. We dined outdoors. The property and views are beautiful!

I almost have 4 stars because of some sass from the chef but everyone else was so amazing. I couldn’t bring down their reviews for that. Our server Bryson (sp? was one of the best servers I’ve ever had. So patient with our group and helpful. No problem splitting the bill or asking for modifications. When making reservations for our large group, their event staff was very helpful and accommodating. The sass from the chef was over-salting a hamburger patty and then saying there was no salt. There was salt you could visually see that I tried scraping off before admitting defeat and requesting a new one. We did also have one breakfast here that was diner-food-like. Overall, service was amazing. Food was so-so.

Decent spot for lunch. Opted for a spinach salad with grilled chicken, which was good. Several sandwiches on menu, but no gluten-free bread available. Service was a little slow for lunch.
