Description

Specialties

Seven days a week, The Root Cellar serves up incredible deliciousness in every bite. Our food philosophy is simple: Make and bake everything from scratch every day and strive to use the freshest ingredients from farmers right here in our own community. So when we say you can taste the difference, we mean it. All of your favorites — from the decadent Root Cellar Mac & Cheese to the savory BLT Chicken Caesar Wrap to the mouthwatering Key Lime Pie and Coconut Cake — every morsel of our menu is freshly prepared just for you.

History

Established in 1998.

Although our name is new, The Root Cellar has been firmly anchored within the Chapel Hill community since 1998 when Chef and Cookbook Author Sara Foster first opened the restaurant as Foster’s Market, an expansion of her original Durham location. From the beginning, Foster’s set the tone for success: Delicious food that emphasizes quality local ingredients and creativity, served up in a welcoming space that appeals to all.

We’re proud of our history and are committed to preserving The Root Cellar as a place to savor comforting scratch-​made food and as a community that celebrates fellowship with family and friends.
