  3. Location: 227 Middle Street Hours: 7 AM to 2 PM (Closed Tuesdays) 1. Breakfast at Baker’s Kitchen Baker’s Kitchen – it’s the go-to place for breakfast in New Bern, and if you don’t arrive early there will likely be a wait to get in. That’s why it’s first on our list! They’ve got all the usual breakfast standards, but they’re best known for the Butter Syrup they provide for pancakes or french toast or whatever else you want to put it on! atlanticdestinations.com

  4. Location: 316 South Front Street Hours: Weekdays: 9 am – 5 pm, Saturday 10 am – 4 pm, Sunday 12 pm -4 pm 2. Getting Started at the Visitor Center (9:00 AM) Next, walk down the street to the New Bern Visitors Center — the best place to plan and launch your day in New Bern. The folks at the desk asked me what I was interested in and they helped me plan my itinerary by suggesting things to do in New Bern that would appeal to me. atlanticdestinations.com

  5. Location: 316 South Front Street Hours: Weekdays: 9 am – 5 pm, Saturday 10 am – 4 pm, Sunday 12 pm -4 pm 3. A Sip of History: The Birthplace of Pepsi (10:00 AM) A short walk up the street from Baker’s Kitchen brought me to the exact spot where it all started—Bradham’s Pharmacy. In the late 1800s, pharmacist Caleb Bradham concocted a drink for his customers to help with digestion – and by 1898 that formula became Pepsi Cola. atlanticdestinations.com

  6. 4. Historic Church Hopping (11:00 AM) With a little time to spare before my next big stop, I wandered around some of the historic churches right in the heart of New Bern. First up was Christ Episcopal Church, just across Pollock Street from the Pepsi museum. Its towering gothic-revival-style steeple is hard to miss! Originally built in 1750, the current building is the third-ish version after the first one was rebuilt in 1824 and then again after the second version burned down in 1871. When I was there, a service had just finished so I was able to go inside and have a look at the beautiful chapel interior and the impressive church organ (1397 pipes, with 20 registers containing 25 ranks of pipes!). atlanticdestinations.com

  7. Location: 421 South Front Street Hours: Open Saturday mornings 5. Shopping at the New Bern Farmers Market (12:00 PM) The market is full of local vendors selling everything from homegrown vegetables to handcrafted trinkets. I spent some time chatting with a local photographer who had some beautiful photos of New Bern and the surrounding areas on display as well as a book of his photos—perfect souvenirs if you’re looking to bring a piece of New Bern home with you. It’s a great spot to pick up a few snacks or even a unique gift before heading to your next stop. And since it’s just a short walk from the rest of downtown, you don’t have to stray too far from the action. atlanticdestinations.com

  8. Location: 610 Pollock Street Hours: Varies by season Tip: Book your tickets in advance to ensure you get a spot! 7. Cruising Through History: New Bern Trolley Tour (2:00 PM) When I bought my ticket for Tryon Palace, the fellow told me there was no way that I could do the 1pm Tryon tour and still make the 2pm trolley tour. But I made it — I really didn’t want to miss the trolley tour of New Bern’s historic district. During the 1.5 hours on this old-time trolley, I got to see and hear about the town’s beautiful and historic homes constructed during the last 300 years! atlanticdestinations.com

  9. Location: 610 Pollock Street Hours: Varies by season Tip: Book your tickets in advance to ensure you get a spot! 8. Ghostly Adventures: New Bern Ghost Tour (7:30 PM) To end my day on an eerie note, I signed up for the New Bern Ghost Tour. Let me tell you, this was a fun way to explore the darker side of the town’s history. Led by a guide who knows all the spooky details, the tour takes you through the cryptic streets and alleyways of downtown, recounting tales of hauntings and paranormal activity. atlanticdestinations.com
