About Us

OUR GOAL IS A PLEASANT DINING EXPERIENCE FOR YOU, YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY WITH FRESH FOOD, SPIRITS, AND AN ACCOMMODATING STAFF. PLANK ROAD STEAK HOUSE IS HOUSED IN ONE OF FARMVILLE’S OLDER BUILDINGS AND HAS UNDERGONE A TOTAL RESTORATION. WITH ORIGINAL EXPOSED BEAMS, FLOORS AND BRICK WALLS, A RELAXING ATMOSPHERE IS SET WITHIN THE MAIN DINING ROOM, PRIVATE DINING ROOM, AND BAR AREA. THE BAR IS CONSTRUCTED OF RECLAIMED WOOD FROM GLOBE HARDWARE IN GREENVILLE. A BACK COURTYARD GIVES YOU THE OPTION OF OUTDOOR DINING. ORIGINAL USES OF THE BUILDING, WHICH DATES FROM 1915, INCLUDES BAUGH & LITTLE WAGON SHOP, FARMVILLE LAUNDRY & CLEANERS FOR OVER 45 YEARS AND MORE RECENTLY, JOYNER’S DRESS SHOP.

THE NAME SELECTION OF THE RESTAURANT RESULTED FROM A COMMITMENT TO FARMVILLE HISTORY AND NORTH CAROLINA HERITAGE. THE PLANK ROAD ROUTE FROM THE TAR RIVER PORT IN GREENVILLE TO WILSON CAME THROUGH THE SOUTHERN PART OF FARMVILLE. THE OLD PLANK ROAD WAS CONSTRUCTED IN 1851 AND WAS BUILT OF FLAT, LEVEL, WOODEN PLANKS THAT GREATLY FACILITATED TRAVEL AND TRADE IN PITT COUNTY UNTIL IT FELL INTO DISREPAIR IN THE 1860’S.

THE PICTURES YOU SEE ON THE WALLS ARE IMAGES FROM FARMVILLE’S PAST AND ILLUSTRATE ITS HISTORY AS A "TOBACCO CAPITOL", IN NOT ONLY NORTH CAROLINA BUT THE WORLD.  

PLEASE ENJOY YOUR TIME WITH US AND PLAN ANOTHER VISIT SOON!
