It’s a special one, y’all — the biannual Cotton Fair is back in Gay, Georgia, a beloved community tradition for over 50 years. Each spring and fall, the festival brings together an incredible group of artisans, craftspeople, and antique vendors across the historic Longleaf grounds.

You can find Captain T serving up fried catfish with all the best fixins’ all weekend long – rain or shine.

Happy Spring Solstice.

A new season brings new inspiration, and we’re looking forward to sharing a fresh round of dishes shaped by the produce arriving in our kitchen.

A Smoky Mountain staple and a longtime favorite of Chef Terry.

You’ll spot them hanging around the restaurant from time to time – but never for long.
If you’ve tasted it before, you’ll know exactly why.

• Pâté en croute •

A star feature of our dry-aged duck plate.

Filled with fowl sausage and crafted with care by Sous Chef Sean.

Sliced for service, but worth appreciating in its full form… Don’t you think?
