I cannot say enough how great the Father's Day brunch was. It was hands down the best brunch my family and I have enjoyed in the State of North Carolina. The food was excellent; service was impeccable; and the ambience made for a great afternoon! I would continue to recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a unique food experience in the Southern Pines area. My wife and I have traveled to different countries and eaten at many unique and highly rated restaurants and I would place this brunch up there with them for flavor and experience.
This place is so good. The patio is perfection, people are so nice and food is so inventive and yummy. In love with their whiskey margarita and carmelized brussel sprouts. Can't wait until it gets cooler to try their Pho type bowls. Love the local flavor and uniqueness here. Top notch local atmosphere.
We love this place! They offer food choices for everyone from carnivores to vegans and even gluten free options! Their fried brussel sprouts with ale mustard are so delicious.. make sure you try them! When we visited, we had perfectly made cocktails with our Kimchi Fried Rice and enjoyed a chocolate truffle for desert. They also offer nightly specials, so there's always something new to try.
As a vegan, I appreciate all the options on this menu. Everything is customizable because you pick your protein and tempeh is a choice! Their staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Tell them what you are looking for & they can tell you how to order it. On the flip side, you can easily add extra proteins or fried eggs, if you are not vegan. It's a great date night experience! Treat yourself & go there. Nothing like it in Southern Pines or the surrounding area.
My favorite new spot in southern pines!!! The foods delicious and every special cocktail on the menu is AMAZING! The staff is excellent and the overall ambience of the place is exactly what this town needed. The Brussel sprouts are always a win and The Leadmine is my favorite so far �
One of the best places in Southern Pines. The owners are amazing people and care about every aspect of their business! The food is to die for! Really words can’t describe how great The Leadmine is!!!
Full of atmosphere the vibe at The Leadmine is worth the visit! Tasty drinks and amazing food, we will certainly be back! The Brussel sprouts are so full of flavor you just have to add them to your order!
By far, my favorite place in Downtown Southern Pines! The food is amazing and the drinks are always on point!!
Visited last night from out of town. Love the entire vibe of the restaurant like the woodwork and warm lighting. Service was friendly and attentive. Had a Russian Donkey whiskey drink with flavors similar to a mojito, but much smoother. The mint was a back-note, which let the whiskey shine. Started with the fried brussel sprouts and queso - delicious! Great combo of smokey, crunchy veggies and a rich cheese sauce. For the entree, the buffalo short ribs and purple sweet potato - amazing! I can’t compliment it enough. It was a lovely dish to look at, but even better to tear into and eat. Meat was tender and flavorful. I’ve never had a purple sweet potato, but it was pretty and hearty and topped with a delicious seasoned butter. I’d love to come back for a brussel sprout repeat and to try another entree. Thank you!
Great bartender! Fantastic food! All the staff are friendly and welcoming. Hip Miami vibe in Downtown Southern Pines!!?? Yep.
The Leadmine is such a unique one of a kind whiskey bar and kitchen in Southern Pines . Highly recommend this jewel of an establishment ***** stars for sure
We had a wonderful time!! The service was absolutely awesome and the drinks, the Rosewood and the Leadmine were fantastic! We had the crispy Brussels sprouts (amazingly good), Mandu dumplings (very tasty), Chinese BBQ pork ribs (won't be ordering those again, more fat than meat) and 1dozen Malpeque oysters (so extremely tiny but great flavor). We look forward to our next visit to try some of the other drinks and definitely more sprouts!!
Most delicious food and drinks we have had in Southern Pines so far! I tried the honeydew mojito first which was delightful! Hubby had the classic old fashioned! Yum! We tried a few appetizers, the queso, the duck wings and the dumplings. The food was phenomenal and our bartender/mixologist, Cole has excellent skills and a great personality! We could of chatted with the staff all day!
Had an early dinner here and I never get tired of this place! Not pictured are the wonderfully delicious drinks we enjoyed with dumplings, bao buns, and crispy delicious Brussels sprouts. Just a great experience every time.
The Leadmine Whiskey Bar and Kitchen was a surprising find in Pinehurst, NC. This place was packed and it is common to see a 40+ minute wait. The reason is because the food and drinks are out of this world.
From crispy Brussel sprouts with spicy mustard and succulent duck wings to a Nashville hot chicken bao bun; the menu is diverse, fresh, and bursting with flavor. I personally enjoyed the Ribeye Bulgogi Bibibap. The drink menu was vast and the speciality cocktails were made with a lot of care and technique.
If you are in Pinehurst, definitely check this place out. But get there early because Leadmine is popular.

The bone marrow tacos were absolutely legit. I am definitely coming back on my next trip into town.
Drinks are great and the staff is extremely friendly. Cocktails are curated with changing seasonal offerings. Food options have an East Asian & Polynesian inspiration. If you plan on dining in make sure you call ahead to get on the list for the evening on weekends. Will be returning again and again.
