Dining “Out� in Durham For fresh air lovers, there’s nothing more pleasant than al fresco dining - especially when someone else does the cooking (not to mention the cleaning up!). Time Out Taverne serves a crowdpleasing menu of eclectic offerings on its shady deck and sunny patio. Prefer to stay cool? Dine in airconditioned comfort in the Taverne’s handsome dining room or sports-themed lounge (six hi-def TVs with satellite feed ensure you won’t miss a pitch, putt or volley). Enjoy fine Angus steaks and delectable, market-fresh seafood specials, along with meal-sized salads, irresistible appetizers and the best burgers around. House specialty cocktails, an affordable wine list and brews for all seasons provide the perfect accompaniment to your meal. The Taverne is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11am; handicapped accessible; reservations and credit cards welcome. Visit the web site for menus and specials.
