We’d love to tell you about a restaurant and bar that gives speedy lunch service, will accept your Wolfpack One card and has gorgeous views of downtown Raleigh from its outdoor seating area.
It’s located in the Carol Johnson Poole Clubhouse at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course, but we can’t tell you the name of it.
That’s because it doesn’t have one just yet.
University Dining has assumed management of the clubhouse restaurant and bar, formerly called The Players Retreat, with a new menu and an emphasis on speedier service for golfers making the turn or diners who have less than an hour set aside for lunch.
A new name will follow shortly.
The restaurant is open for lunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., with bar hours extending through 8 p.m. The menu includes appetizers, burgers, sandwiches, salads and beverages, including beer and wine.
All views of the Raleigh skyline and action on the golf course from the outdoor fire pit are free of charge.
Reservations are not required, but are suggested for parties of 10 or more by calling 919-515-4343. In addition to credit cards and cash, the clubhouse restaurant now accepts all payment options with the Wolfpack One card, including Dining Dollars and AllCampus cards.
The dining room can also host social outings, events and departmental gatherings. Contact Rave! Event Services at 919-513-8368.
