We're thrilled to welcome our brunch service back to Poole's Diner! As of April 1st, 2017, Poole's is serving brunch on Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm. The brunch menu, just like dinner, is sure to change with the seasons. But here's a peek at the opening menu:
We are thrilled to announce that Asha Gomez, chef and author of the award-winning cookbook, My Two Souths, will be our guest chef for our spring edition of Stir the Pot, our dinner series benefiting the Southern Foodways Alliance.
On Sunday, April 23rd, Asha will cook a multi-course dinner at Poole's Diner that celebrates her unique culinary vantage point, a blend of Southern traditions as well as the flavors and recipes from her birthplace, India. Purchase your ticket here.
On Monday, April 24th, we gather at Bridge Club, our private events venue, for a potluck. Help us welcome Asha to Raleigh by bringing a dish to share. We'll provide the main course, and our friends from High Wire Distillery in Charleston will be on hand pouring some of their signature libations. Purchase your ticket here.
Ashley Christensen is thrilled to announce that brunch will be returning to Poole’s Diner, starting in the spring. The menu will feature many of the beloved dishes that garnered a following, first at Poole’s, and most recently at Joule Coffee + Table, which closed at the end of 2016, including the Seasonal Hot Cake, Huevos Rancheros, the “Hangover” Grits bowl, and more. There will also be a handful of brand new dishes, created by Ashley and the Poole’s team. Drink offerings will include a focus on aperitif-style cocktails, and coffee service featuring Counter Culture coffee. Favorites from the Joule drink menu, including “the Greyhounded” and “El Duderino” will also be making a comeback.
Brunch service will take place on Saturday and Sunday from 11 am to 3 pm, beginning in the spring. Follow Poole’s on Instagram at @poolesdiner to keep up with exact timing and updates.
