Our Story
Where Jazz Meets History
Seaboard Freight brings new life to the historic Seaboard Freight Depot in Southern Pines, where exposed brick, worn wood floors, and aged industrial character set the stage for a darker, more intimate jazz speakeasy.
Guests come for craft cocktails, curated wine and beer, and live jazz that fills the room with warmth and rhythm. Every detail, from the moody lighting to the historic textures of the depot, is designed to create an elevated night out with unmistakable speakeasy soul.


The Experience
Built for Late Nights
From the first pour to the final encore, Seaboard Freight is shaped around low light, live jazz, and memorable hospitality. The space balances historic freight-house texture with a polished speakeasy edge, inviting guests to settle in, stay awhile, and let the night unfold.
Brick and Timber
Exposed brick, warm wood floors, and century-old freight-depot details give the room a character you can feel the moment you walk in.
Jazz Nights
Weekly jazz performances bring rhythm, energy, and a little mystery to the room, making every evening feel distinct.
The Spirit of the House
A memorable night depends on atmosphere, hospitality, and music in perfect balance. Seaboard Freight is shaped by a team devoted to creating a soulful destination guests will want to return to again and again.
