Greyhound
buses
stop at 250 Greyhound Court on the east side of town by Hwy-52. Amtrak lays on buses to the
Salem Inn
for the short ride from the nearest station in Greensboro. Winston-Salem's resourceful
visitor center
is on the north edge of downtown at 601 N Cherry St (tel 910/777-3796 or 1-800/331-7018,
).
Brookstown Inn , 200 Brookstown Ave (tel 336/725-1120 or 1-800/845-4262, fax 336/773-0147; $130-160), is a highly recommended small hotel in a former cotton warehouse, dishing up complimentary cheese and wine, cookies and milk, and continental breakfast. A less expensive option across the street, the Salem Inn , 127 S Cherry St (tel 336/725-8561 or 1-800/533-8760, fax 336/725-2318, ; $75-100), offers clean and central motel rooms.
Eating
options aren't that exciting, though the
Twin City Diner
, 1425 W First St (tel 336/724-4462), is a popular place for sandwiches and grill food. The more upmarket
Bistro 420
, 420 W 4th St (tel 336/721-1336), serves good southern cuisine. The
Village Tavern
, in Reynolda Village (tel 336/748-0221), is a great spot for a beer and some pub food. Touring roots, rock and reggae bands play the atmospheric
Ziggy's
, 433 Baity St (tel 336/748-0810), out by Wake Forest University campus. Other useful information
