At the Catawba’s headwaters in Old Fort, patrons are enjoying a new place for breakfast and lunch.
Headwaters Kitchen opened for business a couple of weeks ago at 1259 E. Main St. in Old Fort across from Auria. The new restaurant serves breakfast and lunch from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.

The lunch menu at Headwaters Kitchen has pork tenderloin, meatloaf, catfish and pulled pork sandwiches and two types of salads, house and Greek. All sandwiches come with chips and a pickle.
The small building at 1259 E. Main St. had been used by previous restaurants. Before owner Edward Clarey could open his new eatery, new drywall, equipment, lights and paint had to be put in the interior. “We wanted to make it a very comfortable community-minded place to be,” he said. “We wanted to honor the fact that we are the headwaters to the Catawba River.”
