Dear ,
Well, summer is almost over and we hope you've enjoyed every last minute of it.  We've loved seeing so many friends back at the Diamondback so tan and happy.  Yes, the dads are relaxed because, well, the moms are relaxed.  And the moms are relaxed because someone else is taking care of their children all day at school and they no longer have to spray and spread sunscreen all morning. Yes, life is good. 
 
Some exciting news:  This fall we'll be heading up a new hot spot in High Point for the Furniture Market.  We're calling it 100HIGH and it's all about great food, cocktails and even a little dancing after the Furniture Market. Actually we named it 100HIGH because it's on the 100 block of High Avenue and this year is the 100th anniversary of the High Point Furniture Market.  We invite you all to head on over and check it out.  (To read a recent article about the opening, click here.)

100High Info

 
Lots going on this month:  We'll be watching football, offering great dinner and drink specials every night of the week, hosting two big Crab & Oysterfests, and welcoming all our buddies back.  We have a fabulous new Wine List and we're getting great feedback on it.  You know we pour more than most places you'll find.  And that's a good thing.
  
Happy end of summer and come see us at the Diamondback.  - Kimberly and Murphy

Free Wireless - Every Day

Yes, we want you to bring in those laptops and sit down and get a little work done while you sip on a glass of La Crema.  Our Internet connection is absolutely free and we promise it's more fun to work at the Diamondback.

Fresh from the Farm
We're proud to serve fresh, locally sourced vegetables and greens whenever possible.  That's because we think fresh food just tastes better -- and it's better for you.  We also serve organic milk and all-natural chicken from Ashley Farms.

cocktails on barSpecials at the Bar
Lately we've been reading lots about how the well-mixed cocktail is back! 
 
Naturally, a perfectly mixed cocktail has never gone out of style at the Diamondback.  If you want to sample a mixed drink you've never tried, just ask Philip and watch his expertise in action!
 
Please note:  Our lawyers would certainly want us to add at this point that you must be 21 years of age to drink alcoholic beverages in North Carolina. Some of us wish we were 19 again, or even looked like we were 19 again, but if you were, you wouldn't be able to enjoy a delicious cocktail at the DB, now would you.
