The String Bean in downtown Belmont, North Carolina, is a casual bistro serving classic Southern cuisine and burgers. Guests can enjoy meats from the in-house butcher, fresh seafood, daily specials, and locally sourced ingredients. The pet-friendly outdoor patio offers a relaxing space for dining, and Saturday brunch adds a perfect weekend treat. The restaurant also features a butcher and seafood counter, a beer and wine bottle shop, and live music events during the warmer months. The String Bean’s warm, engaging atmosphere makes it a favorite for visitors and locals alike. The concept traces back to the owner’s upbringing on a small farm in north Georgia, where family and fresh ingredients inspired a love of food. Downtown Belmont provided the perfect setting for opening the restaurant in 2008, blending community, quality ingredients, and welcoming hospitality. The String Bean is more than a restaurant—it’s a place to enjoy great food, build connections, and savor the best of Belmont’s local flavors.
