What a beautiful porch that backs up into the woods. I had the Wade Hamilton Sandwich with a cup of basil soup and hot tea. My husband had wings and a salad. Every thing was really good. The service was prompt.

First time customers & I loved it! The service was awesome, fresh food with large portions. The food came under 15mins, consistent waiter checking on the table. Prices are reasonable. My only issue was the steel table; it had a smell of wet metal that was not pleasing. A tablecloth would be a better choice in my opinion. Will visit again for the wings & juicy burgers

Fantastic Food and atmosphere! We sat on the side porch next to a bubbly little stream. I ordered the Mandarin Chicken salad and a cup of Roasted Sweet Potato soup, both were really good. My son ordered a specialty cheeseburger which he said was very good! Great portion size, and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

The building is great and so is the atmosphere. The wait is long on a weekend but the food really was not outstanding…we had the signature sandwich which was the Arabian Turkey…it had NO flavor at all….the pita was dry and just not that flavorful …….we were forgotten on the patio so it took a while to close out and get any refills on drinks…I would not go back….such a shame….very disappointed…

I have never written a review and given less than 4-5 stars. However, I feel like my experience here is worth noting. My husband and I left our kids at the hotel with their grandparents for a rare date night on Saturday evening. Food was actually good! But there was a huge breakdown in service going on that made us regret using our rare night out on this place. We ordered a round of drinks at the bar in our 30 min wait for our table and were told the balance would be transferred to our table once we were seated. Upon being seated we saw one table near ours were only noticed after they had been at their table for their anniversary dinner for over an hour with no service. The other table to our left got up and left before anyone ever came and took a drink order. The restaurant was only at 50% capacity due to restrictions, but our waitress said 2 people had called out. Understandable. But there was a manager present, and he stopped at our table after our drinks never arrived to the table, even after our appetizer did, and he dropped them off with a haste apology. He then went and sat at a table and had dinner with a companion, and ignored all of the service chaos going on around him. Our entrees arrived at the exact time our appetizer did. A table of about 6-8 women arrived shortly after us, and were seated at a nearby table, and they had one issue after another. The absent manager/owner could’ve really stepped up and improved the experience for all. But, for us, on a very rare night out, we left disappointed in a 2.5hr dinner that should’ve been maybe 1.5hr. Would not return for dinner here based on the service. Ambience and food were decent.

Service was a little slow but that’s typical in a mountain town. We started with the jalapeno hummus. Not as spicy as I thought it would be but very tasty.
We both got tht spicy turkey sandwich. Holy cow the flavors in that sandwich are PERFECT! It is so delicious and definitely spicy. Probably one of the top two sandwiches I’ve ever eaten.
I had the hendricks grapefruit drink. So delicious and wow, a sneaky buzz on the end!
I’m a bit if a fry lover so I upgraded to fries with my sandwich since everyone raved about them. They’re just regular fries. Nothing amazing here. The chips are pretty good but still just regular.
My husband has the Tuscan chicken soup. I tried a bite and it was pretty delicious. Creamy with veges. I would definitely order that again.
Atmosphere is top notch. Can’t go wrong with a meal here. I highly recommend.

Four Friends went for lunch and as we walk in, we are not greeted at all by all the servers standing up at the front watching us come in. Two ordered bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwiches, which they said were good and two of us ordered hamburgers, which were dry. This restaurant used to be so good, but I have no desire to return.

We had lunch at Cornucopia for the first time on Tuesday, Oct 12, 2021. The restaurant was short handed as sadly most restaurants and other businesses are so we ordered from the bar, took a number and sat at a table. Not a problem. (just Be sure to order everything, including your dessert!)
We sat at a table on the outdoor deck overlooking a small creek. We loved the indoor decor, high light colored wooden ceilings and perfect lighting at Cornucopia. It was really beautiful and relaxing! The inside was airy with large windows, open air dining! It was just lovely. There are plenty of tables to sit at. Very roomy. Great bar area! There were 4-5 outdoor tables on a side deck. They also have a Pet Friendly gravel yard area with 4 tables. All outdoor tables had umbrellas to offer shade. Their menu offers a great selection of food and drink items. Very reasonably priced. Their food was outstanding! We ordered their Shaved Ribeye hoagies with melted cheese, onions and peppers.
The shaved ribeyes were cooked a nice med rare, extremely tender and very flavorful. The hoagie rolls were very fresh , soft with just the right chew. The ratio of rolls and shaved ribeye was perfect! Not too much, not too little, it was just right. It came with a side order of French fries that were fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside, soft and creamy inside. Not oily at all, not over cooked, they were fried just right. Oh, Be sure to order dessert! We shared a chocolate buttermilk pie that was out of this world delicious! The pie crust was amazing also. My Bloody Mary was exceptional! Bright, peppery, tomato flavor with lemon and lime wedges, and a pickled okra, olive and celery skewer. Mmmm!
Being short staffed and having to order from the bar before seating was not too bad. It worked well. The lines of customers were getting long, the restaurant is doing the very best that it can and handled the crowds very well. Just be patient and kind. You will be rewarded with excellent food, great drinks in a beautiful atmosphere with very friendly, welcoming staff. We were not rushed at all and throughly enjoyed our lunch We live a little over an hour away, we visit Cashiers and Highland at least 2-3 times a year. We will definitely be returning to Cornucopia. It is now on our list of being one of our favorite restaurants in the area. We were very impressed! Be prepared to be amazed! we LOVED it! We highly recommend Cornucopia!
Thank you Cornucopia for all you do! You have a great, courteous staff, amazing cooks and a beautiful restaurant. We had a great dining experience with you! Good job and Thanks again! I am quite a foodie, love to cook and I really appreciate having a great lunch or dinner out. You made that happen! See you again soon!
