Elmo's Diner - Carrboro, NC


Elmo's Diner (near the University of North Carolina) in the restored old Carr Mill Mall in Carrboro, NC, (and a second location in Durham near Duke University) offers breakfast, lunch and dinner in a casual setting. Sit at the bar or at a table, casual dress. Prices are reasonable - dinner for two around $18 plus drinks.

Selections range from salads to burgers and sandwiches and complete meals. The food is great and many items are prepared with a slight twist from standard fare to give diners a break from plain old diner food. Among the choices...
  • Grilled marinated chicken breast
  • Salmon cakes topped with creamy dill sauce
  • Chicken dumplings with chunks of chicken, dropped biscuit dough
  • Home style roast beef meal served on open faced toast
  • Elmo's Trifecta - triple decker sandwich with turkey, roast beef, three cheeses
  • Spicy smothered burritos
and of course, breakfast anytime!

Elmo's is open from 6:30 AM until 10:00 PM Sunday-Thursday, 6:30 AM until
11:00 PM Friday and Saturday.

Telephone 919 416-3823 in Carrboro at 200 N. Greensboro Street in Carrboro at the old Carr Mill Mall, 919 929-2909 in Durham at 776 9th Street near Duke.
