Pepper's

Restaurant & Bar

ABOUT US  

A Boone tradition since 1975, Pepper’s Restaurant & Bar is the longest family-owned restaurant in Boone, North Carolina. Founded by Jack Pepper and now run by his son, Josh Pepper, we take pride in serving elevated pub fare, hearty sandwiches, and classic dinner entrées—all with a welcoming, local touch. From our famous French Onion Soup and hand-breaded Fried Mushrooms to the beloved Jean Lawson Special, every dish is made to order with quality ingredients.
 

We’re proud to be rooted in community and sustainability. As Boone’s first smoke-free restaurant, we continue to minimize our footprint through eco-friendly practices. Our bar features the best local brews, a curated whiskey selection, and a rotating wine list.

"A BOONE TRADITION WITH GREAT FOOD AND A WELCOMING VIBE!"
"A Classic Boone Favorite! Pepper’s never disappoints—delicious food, reasonable prices, and a welcoming atmosphere. We make it a point to visit every year from Florida! There’s something for everyone, including the kids. The service is always attentive, the restaurant is clean with a cozy wood-accented interior, and the food is consistently excellent!"
