Frogs Leap Public House is a farm to table country pub at the corner of Church and Montgomery Streets. It is housed in a 1918 building that was the Southeast’s first Buick dealership and is located just one block south of Main Street in the heart of historic downtown Waynesville.
FLPH is focused on the culture, art, music, wine, beer and especially the food of Western North Carolina. Like the City of Waynesville itself, FLPH is Southern down to its roots but draws influences from around the world. The food is fresh and local, the libations are homegrown, the music is American and has a beat.
FLPH is home to a family with a passion for serving world-class food, wine and spirits in a soulful, comforting atmosphere. This is a place where on any given day business diners eat alongside families and foodies. The menu may feature duck confit and black truffles along with BBQ and pimento cheese. It’s a place to go for a local craft beer after work and to celebrate a special occasion with a loved one or the whole extended family. FLPH offers a carefully selected list of fine wines by the bottle and glass, award winning craft brews both on draft and in the bottle. A sipping list including single malt scotches, bourbons, rye, brandy, port and a seasonal list of homegrown cocktails created with house-made syrups, infusions and garnishes.
FLPH always uses the highest quality local ingredients to create changing menus that represent a fresh take on seafood, produce, and specialty products from a bounty of North Carolina farmers, ranchers, and artisans whenever possible. At FLPH, seasonality, sustainability and buying local are our core culinary and business philosophies and are achieved though preparing the best food, using the best ingredients, supporting our local economy and conserving our natural resources. Frogs Leap’s great locally sourced ingredients are further enhanced though natural cooking techniques, an authentic wood-burning pizza oven, a slow smoker and a wood grill impart the warm glow of the North Carolina woods to our dishes.
