About

Led by Executive Chef and Owner, Bruce Clarke, the kitchen interprets the bounty of the surrounding area, exploring an ingredient-driven cuisine and rediscovery of heirloom products and small family farming.

Our focus is not only serving the community, but also purchasing from the community. Spending local and supporting small, like-minded businesses is part of the Laurrapin ethos.


Our Name

laur-ra-pin [lair-a-pin] adjective. The word Larrup is first found in the United States in the early nineteenth century. Laurrapin is an Appalachian or Southern term commonly used to describe tasty “po’ folk foods." Laurrapin means over the top in delectable flavor, seasoning, and texture… a memorable meal. Usage: “Pass me some more of ‘dat laurrapin gravy n’ biscuits.”
