Cafè

Now those daring purveyors of fine goods, Emmett Davenport & Snydley Winkleperry, have turned their hands to addressing not only your dietary needs, but also providing stimulating and thought-provoking entertainment with the addition of their wonderful late night cafè & lounge, Davenport's.

We, here at Davenport and Winkleperry, firmly believe it to be our duty to address our patrons full gamut of needs. As such, in the past, we have been proud to bring you Davenport & Winkleperry Alfalfa Ice Cream (with 50 percent more sprouts), Penny Farthing Seat Cushions, and most recently the Klaude Davenport Brand Cheese Grater with laser sight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you serve food?
No, we do not have a kitchen but we've got some tasty tidbits that we have brought to us by some absolutely wonderful local bakeries, and we have 8 restaurants within walking distance. Any of our staff will be more than happy to point you in the right direction. Also, feel free to bring in your own dinner and enjoy one of our tasty beverages.

Can I pay for an event, leave and come back later?
Yes, of course! But if the show is "sold out" when you get back you are not guaranteed of getting in the door.

What if I'm on the guestlist for a band?
If you are supposed to be on a guestlist, be sure you know the name of the person who has put you on the list. It is also a good idea to confirm with that person that you are on the list 24 hours before the show. Valid ID is always required at Davenport & Winkleperry, and it is essential when you are arriving. We are not responsible for mistakes made by band members, radio stations, or other promotional groups.

Will you call me a taxi?
Of course! Ask any of our staff who are working that night and we will make it our first priority.

What time do I need to arrive to get a seat?
We usually officially open our doors for the events an hour before, we only have about 40 actual seats so if you get here early you might be lucky enough to get one of those seats. Our shows are basically standing room only. The 40 seats mentioned are couch, comfy chairs, stools at the bar, and tables with a few chairs sitting around each.

I'm not a member, do I need to join before I come to the show?
The best thing you can do is to print out a membership form, fill it out and show up with $3 attached to it for one of staff people. They will take the application, you will automatically be a member, and the next time you return you can pick up your membership card.

What does a membership get me? Do I get to go to the front of the line? Do I get in for free?
A membership allows you to legally enter the club "by NC law". However, we do like to sweeten the membership by offering a small discount to select events, and automatically added to our newsletter, so you get know what we've got planned before anyone else.

My child wants to come to the event with me, is that alright?
We will let in underage patrons (age 15 to 17) who are accompanied by a parent(s) or legal guardian. Please contact us first before doing so. They will be charged the full price of the event & stamped or arm-banded like all under 21 customers.

We are coming from out-of-town, where can we stay?
Sadly, Pittsboro, at present, does not have any hotels or motels. However, the town does offer some lovely Inns and Bed & Breakfast's - Fearrington House Inn, The Rosemary House, 458 West, and the Small Street B&B Café. But, if that's not really your thing, 20 to 30 minutes to the north of us is Chapel Hill, and you should be able to find affordable lodgings there.

Memberships

Davenport & Winkleperry is open to our members and their guests.

In order to obtain a full ABC permit we had to become a "private" club.

For those of you who don't understand the ABC laws - in order to sell liquor in North Carolina, an establishment must either have 30 percent of food sales or become a private club. Since we do not have a kitchen, we decided to go with the second option.

We do ask that you come as a guest of a member, a few times to see if you like the place before becoming a member yourself. Once you decide to join, it's really quite easy. To become a member, simply print and fill out the application, bring it to us, here at D&W, along with $3. And, voila, you're a member.

Management and employees cannot solicit members to sponsor non-members who arrive at the door or up to the bar.
