Okay, so you’ve booked an appointment for a FREE Design Consultant at Furnitureland South. Now, let’s plan the perfect day trip that includes a foodie planner to indulge the local food scene.
Located in Jamestown, North Carolina, Furnitureland South is the largest retail furniture store in the United States with 1.3 million square feet.
You might be thinking, “I thought Furnitureland South was in High Point?”
If you’ve grown up in North Carolina or are familiar with the furniture world, you probably know that High Point is a major (if not the absolute) center of the furniture world. Every year, thousands of furniture buyers, designers, and industry heavy-hitters from all over the world come to town for the High Point Furniture Market to source and buy the best furniture.
From beloved North Carolina-made furniture to brands from all over the world, High Point serves as the buying hub for many of your biggest furniture retailers. This includes Furnitureland South which started out buying the market’s showroom furniture and selling it locally before evolving into the world’s biggest furniture retailer carrying thousands of in-demand, premium brands of furniture.
If you’re on your way to Furnitureland South, make sure to indulge locally in Jamestown
Jamestown is the perfect setting to welcome out-of-towners and day-shoppers. The town is a suburb of nearby Greensboro and High Point offering a selection of wonderful foodie options.
Do you really need to plan for food when furniture buying?
Of course, if you’re asking us at NC Eat & Play, our answer is always going to be yes! The reality is that at Furnitureland South you can easily spend hours and hours viewing thousands of pieces of furniture from showroom to showroom (or gallery to gallery).
They offer a FREE Design Consultation that can be booked in advance to make shopping more efficient by narrowing down selections and styles. Recently, NC Eat & Play’s Founder, Megan Nichols connected her in-laws with a design consultant to help plan their new sunroom design.
NOTE: You don’t need an appointment to shop at Furnitureland South. They are open Monday through Saturday and closed on Sundays. You can easily plan your visit and see their hours on their website.
While you’re there take advantage of the onsite Starbucks and Subway – just a couple of the many perks you’ll appreciate after a long drive to get you fueled up quickly for more browsing and shopping.
Explore Jamestown foodie faves!
Southern Roots

You’ll love everything about the artisan-driven local southern cuisine. You’ll feel welcomed because Southern Roots prides itself on a simple foodie philosophy, “Our food and people are a celebration.”
The restaurant is a huge supporter of local farmers and sustainable agriculture.
Full Moon Oyster Bar

If you thought being inland prevented you from enjoying great seafood, think again! Full Moon Oyster Bar & Seafood Kitchen serves up all your favorite oceanside fare.
If you’re day-tripping for furniture, stopping in for lunch or dinner really does make the trip feel like a mini-vacay vs. a shopping chore.
Black Powder Smokehouse
Does shopping work up a big appetite? You can’t go wrong with barbecue. Black Powder Smokehouse is a highly recommended local favorite. With artisan smoked meats and homemade sides, there’s nothing but comfort in every bite.
If you’re shopping with out-of-towners, Furnitureland South is a great experience that perfectly pairs with a local smokehouse for that truly North Carolina treat.
Peppers Indian Grill
If you’re looking for exciting flavors and worldly cuisine, Peppers Indian Grill is at the top of the list. Thanks to a traditional and modern take on Indian food, Peppers has quickly been a go-to for Furnitureland Shoppers. It’s also a great foodie choice if traveling and seeking vegetarian options.
We’ve only begun to explore Jamestown.
We hope that when you book your FREE design consultation, you’ll try one (or two) of these foodie choices. Or share and tag us in one of your favorites we haven’t tried yet.
