First time eating at The Local and I must say, I was very pleased. Parking situation is a bit tough but a little bit of walking hasn't killed anyone. Wait for seating was about 35-40 minutes which for 4 PM on a Saturday, it's a bit unusual. Service was quick and food was great. Very good prices as well. Lots of drinks to chose from. Great service. We will definitely visit again.

First restaurant we went to in Boone recommended by our hotel. We spent four hours catching up while tasting the local drafts. The cheese curds were delicious and locally sourced. The fish and chips use Cod and was so tasty….reminded me of fresh fish I had in Alaska. The Boone Burger was grilled perfectly! Pizza and salad were notably tasty also. The best part of our dining experience was Laura. She was so very friendly and on top of our every need before we even knew we needed it. Great place!!

This place was SO good! We got the bbq tacos, naan Cuban, and a pomegranate lemonade mocktail. Super unique flavors and a good amount of food. The drink was so yummy too. All the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was so cute. Would love to come back.

We couldn’t have picked a better place to eat than here! More so, Hannah our waitress did a phenomenal job. Thank you Hannah for being so compassionate and caring to us. You truly made a difference in our evening. You’re going to make a great nurse. Food was excellent, vibes were on point. We’d def be back!

My family and I were very well received by Olivia at the restaurant. She was super attentive, patient, and caring towards us. It was our first time at The Local, and everyone praised the juiciness of the burger. I recommend it and would definitely go back! xoxo Olivia!!
