    four grilled shrimp
    Rebecca M.

    I got an opportunity to return to Peck & Plume. Peck & Plume is located inside the Mayton Inn in Cary. There is no dedicated parking area, but I was able to find parking closeby. We were a large group and dined in the main dining area. We were all seated together. Brian was our server, and very attentive and stayed on top of things. He knew the menu well and offered suggestions for some in the group. It did get loud when the dining area was about half full. But I do love the restaurant's decor. I went with the local lettuces salad this time and added grilled shrimp. I expected more than four pieces of shrimp, though, for a $25 salad. I did enjoy both, but wouldn't spend that again, knowing what I'd be getting. The Benedict changes week to week, and that week's special didn't appeal to me but that is normally what I'd order for brunch. It is too bad they don't have the classic version on the menu alongside the special of the week. We were given separate checks, and my iced teas kept coming, so my glass never went empty. When it warms up, I might like to try dining on the terrace.

    Beet salad
    Melissa G.

    This place is so pretty! Such elegance and is large! They have a great bar area and make tasty cocktails. Our server was friendly, helpful and attentive. The beet salad was delicious, and the pork shoulder was good. The risotto had good flavor but was sticky. The huge disappointment was the filet. It was cooked correctly, but it did not have a filet texture or taste. Skip it if you go. The broccolini was cooked perfectly.

    TWO EGG BREAKFAST with choosing chicken sausage, grits, and biscuit. (posted July 2026)
    Chip R.

    UPDATE: I had been here for Sunday brunch when it was called Verandah many years ago but recently had the chance to experience weekday breakfast at the now Peck & Plume inside The Mayton in downtown Cary. The aesthetic itself is still very nice inside, very sharply done with a combination of finished wood and modern looks with nice contrasts. Since it was very early, I had the indoor seating area to myself this day. I was started off quickly with coffee and water, with a breakfast menu to look over. There were many things that stood out on the menu that looked delicious but I went with their Two Eggs Breakfast selection that comes with choice of bacon, pork or chicken sausage (I chose the latter); choice of breakfast potatoes, fruit, or cheddar grits (again, went with the latter); and choice of white/wheat/sourdough toast or biscuit (again going with the latter). It was a bit of a wait for preparation/arrival of my meal but nothing extremely long. When it arrived, I was a bit surprised that the food presentation was a bit less than what I would expect from this type of restaurant (I did like the plate itself looking a bit "Seagrove pottery-esque" in appearance). However, the taste of the food was great and I enjoyed all my selections including my scrambled eggs. The grits were good and creamy, not thin, excellent consistency. If splitting hairs, I'd say the biscuit was just a little too browned for my taste but still, it was a good biscuit nonetheless here. My server was very nice and helpful throughout. I enjoyed my weekday breakfast visit here at Peck & Plume and would come back anytime in the future.

    Southern Benedict
    Monica M.

    Always excellent service and delicious brunch. I've been here several times for brunch. It's my go to brunch spot to bring my family or out of town friends. Not only is it located in the beautiful Mayton Inn but also in the heart of downtown Cary. Always nice to stroll around downtown Cary to walk off the calories after a visit to Peck & Plume. At Peck & Plume you won't have any leftovers. You'll want to devour every bite right then and there. The brunch menu is constantly changing and it is never disappointing but I can say their eggs Benedict and shrimp & grits are musts. Great food, perfect location, nice ambience and impeccable service. What more could you ask for?

    Black Lime Sour
    Heather M.

    The hub and I stopped in for a pre-dinner cocktail in the lounge. They were hosting live jazz, which was nice. No one camped to take our order, so we went to the bar. I can't comment on the food because we didn't order any, but the NA cocktails were delicious.

    Buttermilk pancakes with bacon
    Douglas K.

    Didn't know this was a hotel and it was a pleasant surprise. I am definitely gonna try and stay here one day on my next visit. The pancakes were amazing! And they do them right with whipped soft butter and warm maple syrup! Side order of bacon and coffee were great too! Shout out to the waiter who ran the whole room taking care of 6 tables at once and no one wanting for anything. He is a rock star and true professional.

    Huevos Rancheros
    Juliet H.

    First time visiting Peck & Plume for brunch and I STAN! Justin was a gracious host and server who offered great suggestions on the menu. Hubs and I settled on the Huevos Rancheros, bacon, eggs, and the French toast brick-- all fantastic! We also tried and loved the Mayton mimosa and the cold fashioned from the brunch cocktail menu. Superb! I had the distinct pleasure of meeting BOB, manager extraordinaire, who was effortlessly serving lewks, gorgeous hair, and grace while setting up for an event and floating through the dining room. I'm a huge fan! All in all, this experience was by far our favorite brunch in Cary thus far, and we'll be back real soon as there are at least 3 more brunch items on the menu that I need to try. Thanks for the great time & vibes-- Cheers!

    Burger & Fries  Spare Ribs and potatoes
    Nikki G.

    My mom chose this place to celebrate her birthday!! It's inside of the Mayton Hotel. Parking was kind of a hassle but once that was figured out we were good. AS SOON as you enter the front doors it smells AMAZING inside. We were seated fairly quickly and our waitress did an excellent job with recommendations. It appears the menu always changes. Starters: Wings(MUST TRY), Tuna Crudo(I enjoyed it) and the Pork & Pimento Cheese Fondue. I was excited to take the fondue home to have for the next day then we found a string of hair in the fondue, we informed our waitress and the manager came over and apologized and resolved the issue. Outside of that the starters were good. Entrees around the table: Ribeyes, Burgers, Spare Ribs and a Chicken Sandwich. No complaints with any of these. My son said he wished he had a bigger portion of the Spare Ribs. Desserts: Lemon Poundcake with strawberries and gelato(the cake was not moist at all, the strawberries and gelato were definitely the stars on the plate hands down. We also ordered the donuts and coffee, you get 3 small donuts(DELICIOUS) and chocolate gelato, I'm not really a chocolate person so that was just ok in my opinion. Overall everyone enjoyed themselves. I think next time we will come for brunch to see what that's like.

    Shrimp and Grits
    Jazmin R.

    This place was lovely! It's inside of a hotel space so you have to make sure you look for it but once you're inside, it's truly a well decorated piece of property! We sat in the "library" for a bit while the rest of our party arrived which was comfy. Once our entire party arrived, we were sat in the dining room which was very spacious. Our server was very friendly and speedy the entire meal. I got the shrimp and grits which were delicious. This bowl was huge and I ended up having leftovers to take back. I think my favorite bite was the grits, bacon jam, and egg - so good! Not pictured was my Pama Sour drink which was also tasty. Overall, a really cool place to check out!

    Avocado Toast
    Kim M.

    We wandered into Peck & Plume on a Sunday afternoon thinking we'd grab a quick lunch--plot twist: it was brunch-only. But hey, when life hands you brunch, you lean in. I ordered the Avocado Toast and was pleasantly surprised when the server mentioned they had gluten-free bread available (not listed on the menu--bonus points for that!). The avocado was sliced instead of the usual smashed mush, which actually made for a really fresh, clean bite. There were some big flakes of salt on top that added the perfect hit of flavor. I would've loved a little cheese crumble to round it out, but that's just my inner food diva talking. The real scene-stealer? The outdoor seating. 5 stars. Charming, relaxing, and perfectly placed in adorable Downtown Cary--ideal for soaking up some sunshine with your mimosa (or, in my case, espresso martini). Service was on point--friendly, quick, and helpful. Our food came out fast, and everyone seemed genuinely happy we were there, which always makes a difference. Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I ask for cheese on my avo toast next time? Also yes.

    Apple dessert
    Ryan C.

    Went to Peck & Plume for the first time with 7 people. The restaurant was very nice inside and was fitting for a nice dinner. The service was very good and they were on top of making sure our drinks were filled. I got the NY strip and it was good the only thing I wish is that it came with mashed potatoes. A few others that were with me had the short rib and well they said it was good it didn't just fall apart like others. It was a little tougher but flavor was there.

    Catch of the day
    Abby T.

    This is my husband and I go to date night restaurant. You can't go wrong with any food choice. I normally like to get a protein, but I decided to go with the carrot top gnudi. It was so good. There were so many flavors in the dish. It was almost like a curry. My husband got the catch of the day. Our appetizers were delicious. The cornbread with the honey butter is to die for. Our waitress was amazing.

(Great WiFi!) The interior is glass on two sides, so it very bright, and appointed with comfy chairs with waist-high dividers around the bar and small table area. My friend arrived at 5:15 as promised and we were escorted to a table further down the building. The bartender brought my bill to the table later, and I asked if it could be added to the total but he said no. I had read about the pimento cheese wontons, so we decided to try those as a starter. They arrived hot and dressed with a red pepper jelly sauce. (Not too hot, a nice foil to the pimento cheese!) My friend liked them as well. Neither of us are eating large meals these days, so we opted to share an entree. We decided on the NY Strip steak ($38) which comes with smoked potato au gratin and collard greens. We tried to sub the greens for anything else, and the only other option was Brussels sprouts. (Green beans? Broccoli? Asparagus? Anything else? Nope, just stinky stuff.) So, stinky veggies were the only option. (We asked the waiter not to bring them, but they arrived anyway, and we had someone remove them quickly!) The potato's turned out to be more a chunky soup, rather than a casserole, but were tasty. Just difficult to share. (No spoons were offered for the soup!) The steak was phenomenal. Cooked to perfection (rare/medium rare) with a nice finishing sauce, and was just enough. Somehow, that steak, the wonton app ($11) and a regular house marg were billed at $88 after tax, which meant over $100 with tip, but I was enjoying my friend's company too much to dispute the bill. After I left, I did the math and figure they charged extra for something in there. But I was gone and never take the receipt, because most waitstaff do a good job of putting info into the POS system. Maybe I need to reassess my trust of waitstaff data entry. Suffice it to say this will not be a regular spot I go to. Stinky veggies, poor data entry and sides that can't easily be shared made for a sour first impression. The steak was good, but I can't find that extra $30 in anything, unless it was the toxic veggie disposal fee.
