Reid’s Cafe is located in beautiful Sugar Mountain, NC. We love the intentional, the specific, and the well-cared-for. We work closely with our local farms and purveyors to curate fresh, seasonal menus that feature regionally sourced meats, a rotation of fresh oysters and select seafood. All of our breads, pastas, and pastries are prepared in-house daily. Our Bar offers local beers, seasonal craft cocktails, and a well chosen wine selection. We are currently operating under all Covid-19 restrictions and following all CDC and local guidelines. The health and safety of our guests and our staff is our #1 priority. Outdoor reservations are by phone only. We look forward to seeing you.

Great service! Cocktails very nice. Oyster app was great and mains were delicious. Only problem was when they tried to convince me that cream curdling in my coffee was normal...say what? Other than that, we always enjoy Reid's. Best food in Banner Elk area!

Incredible food and wonderful service. Our first time there and we will definitely be back. The oysters on the half shell were delicious and obviously fresh - seriously better than oysters you find at many restaurants closer to the coast. The pasta dish was incredible as well. Would love to see some natural wines on the wine list when we come back!

My husband agrees, this of the best meals we’ve eaten in years. His filet mignon was perfect, as was my son’s trout. My wedding soup, beet salad, and chocolate mousse were to die for. 10 start if I could
