Poppy's Bites & Barrels, American restaurant in New Bern, US.
Poppy's Bites & Barrels is an American restaurant housed in a former bank building on Pollock Street, serving burgers, candied bacon, and hand-cut potato chips in a casual setting. The dining space features one of the region's oldest bank vaults, which has been preserved as part of the interior design.
The building began as a bank and was later converted into a restaurant while preserving the original vault. This transformation allowed the space to keep its historical character while serving a new purpose for the community.
The restaurant honors those who served in the military through a specially made bourbon whiskey dedicated to service members. This respect for service is woven into how guests experience the space.
The restaurant is open Monday and Wednesday through Saturday until 9 PM, with Sunday hours ending at 4 PM, and closed on Tuesday. The space works well for casual meals and is designed to feel relaxed and unpretentious.
Every burger patty is ground fresh daily and cooked on a flame grill, giving the food a distinctive taste that sets it apart. This hands-on approach to preparation is a deliberate choice that shows in every meal served.
