🍑 North Carolina’s Best Bites: I-95 Food Stops 🌲
Welcome to the North Carolina segment of your I-95 culinary journey!
As you traverse the Tar Heel State, particularly the corridor that runs from the South Carolina border up through the Eastern Plains, you’ll encounter a rich tapestry of genuine Southern cuisine and regional specialties that make for perfect SoFloDining Approved pit stops. This is the heart of Eastern-style Barbecue country, and the eastern edge of the state is also known for its fresh, Calabash-style seafood and unique local meats. We believe that road trip meals should be a chance to slow down, enjoy local flavor, and savor the state’s character.
Our recommendations in this section focus heavily on spots conveniently just off the interstate in towns like Dunn, Selma, Smithfield, Wilson, and Rocky Mount. These are the places that serve food that is good, clean, and fair, offering a true taste of North Carolina’s signature hospitality and legendary whole-hog cooking.

Loaded potato skins, crisp guac, smash burger – juicy, Swiss burger dripping-turns out this chain might be the best secret in town. www.rubytuesday.com
