Cuisine
Globally-influenced Contemporary American. The menu changes monthly and incorporates the best of the region’s fresh produce, fish, game and fowl from local farmers and purveyors. The restaurant is chef owned and operated.

Venue
The restaurant is located in the restored Victorian-era Bartlett Mangum House, which was built in 1908 and is currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places. (Please see the House History section of this website for more information.) We have seven intimate dining rooms, as well as a cozy six-stool bar. The house features original leaded and stained glass windows, eight unique fireplaces with their original wood, tiled and mirrored mantelpieces, a wraparound porch, the original walnut staircase and heart pine floors, and a romantic second floor balcony. The grounds feature a working kitchen vegetable and herb garden and a beautiful perennial garden. (Please see the Photo Gallery section of this website for interior and exterior photos.)

Smoking Policy
Four Square is completely non-smoking.  Smokers may head to the front porch where we have rocking chairs, a porch swing and ash cans.

Wine List and Corkage Policy
Four Square has an award winning wine list which includes diverse offerings across a broad price range.  The wines we offer are chosen specifically to harmonize with the food served here at Four Square.  Above all, we look for wines that represent an excellent quality and value, which often sends us "off the beaten path".  We love to talk about wine with our guests, so please don't hesitate to ask for assistance when you come in to dine.  If you have a special bottle at home that you'd like to bring in to the restaurant, our corkage fee is $25.  We ask that you limit the number of bottles brought into the restaurant to one per table.

Outdoor Dining
We have a lovely screened-in porch for those who like to dine al fresco.  The tables on the porch accomodate 2-4 guests only.  The porch is equipped with ceiling fans and offers guests a lovely view of our flower garden.  The chairs are comfortable, and the tables are set with white linen just like the tables inside.  We generally do not take reservations for the tables on the porch too far in advance due to the unpredictability of the weather in North Carolina!

Parking
We have ample parking on premises.

Handicap Access
Two handicap parking spaces and a ramp to our side entrance are located to the right side of the house as you are driving in.  Our restaurant has two floors, and the second floor is not handicap accessible.  When making reservations, please inform us if anyone in your party may have a problem with stairs, and we will be certain to seat you on the first floor of the restaurant.
