Question 1

Where can I park when visiting Southern Charm?

Accepted Answer

Free street parking is available throughout downtown Blue Ridge, although it can fill up quickly during busy weekends, holidays, and when the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway is in town. There is a paid parking lot directly next to Southern Charm, but that lot is privately operated and is not owned, operated, or affiliated with Southern Charm. For guests with disabilities, there is one handicap-accessible parking space behind our building available on a first-come, first-served basis. There are also two handicap-accessible spaces on the street directly in front of the restaurant. If street parking is full, one option guests often overlook is the parking area near Blue Ridge City Hall at 480 W First St. It is a short walk from Southern Charm and can be a convenient alternative to searching for a space directly downtown.
