The Porch
The Porch is a restaurant in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, housed in a historic building at West End Millworks. It serves Tex-Mex dishes like tacos and margaritas in a simple, welcoming setting with an outdoor porch area where guests can dine when weather permits.
The restaurant started in 2010 as a meal delivery service called Dinners on the Porch. In early 2014, it expanded into a full restaurant under the same name in its current historic location.
The name comes from its origins as a meal delivery service where food was brought to people's porches. This heritage remains visible in how the restaurant welcomes guests and creates a feeling of gathering at a friend's home.
The restaurant is open Monday through Saturday from 11 am to 9 pm, and Sunday brunch runs from 10 am to 3 pm. Reservations are not needed for small groups, but parties of six or more can call ahead, and online ordering and delivery through apps are available.
The business grew from a personal delivery service that let people enjoy restaurant-quality meals at home without cooking. This philosophy of convenience and homestyle comfort still shapes how the restaurant operates and serves its community today.
