STAYING THERE: The upscale Carolina Inn (211 Pittsboro St., 800-962-8519, http://www.carolinainn.com), near downtown Chapel Hill, is a short walk to Franklin Street and campus; if you don't stay there, at least grab a drink in its Crossroads Restaurant and Bar. Rooms start at $169 per night double. We stayed at the Oakwood Inn (411 N. Bloodworth St., 800-267-9712, http://www.oakwoodinnbb.com), built in 1871 and near downtown Raleigh. Rooms start at $139 per night double.

EATING THERE: It might not look like much from the outside, but the eclectic Federal (914 W. Main St., Durham) offers affordable gourmet sandwiches and entrees. Lunch for two was about $14.

For upscale dining, try Frazier's in Raleigh (2418 Hillsborough St.), which offers modern American cuisine, including roasted lamb shank. Dinner for two was about $50. Martinis at Raleigh's Mosaic Wine et Lounge (517 W. Jones St.) start at $9.50.
