“Grows excellent with all 4 of us . He was so pleasant and helpful.“

“We were there last night with our soccer team so it was around 40 people. They sat us in the tent area and Christian was our server/bartender. He did AMAZING!!!!!!! We were all shocked how he was so efficient and fast with serving that many people. He made great drinks too!!!“

“We love Wakefield tavern! The food is always delicious, the service is consistently great, and the atmosphere is always upbeat. We bring our kids so it's definitely family friendly. My reason for only 4 stars is that since we are a larger family, we are often put in the huge corner booth that has missing filling in the cushions, so you are sinking into the wooden base and it's really not comfortable.“

“We had our class reunion here last night and everything from the planning to the staff to the food was amazing! We had a great time and will definitely recommend this venue to others!“

“Great selection of craft beer and wine, extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff“

“Absolutely love this place! The manager Chaz is always amazing. Great place to watch any sporting event. Huge menu and food is always fast and perfect!“

“Nice Atmosphere and Huge inside and out...“

“We went before a Hurricane’s game. Great to see all the ‘Canes fans. I also appreciated the discount parking for the game.“

“Great food. And the best place to watch the Saints play!!“

“Thanksgiving for dinner, my daughter and son-in-law took me to The Pickled Onion at Wakefield. It was their first time as well as my first time eating here. I had a ribeye steak (medium well) with baked potato and salad, It was cooked to perfection and tender. My son-in-law got wings, my daughter got stuffed jalapeños and a salad. They also really enjoyed their food. As far as service goes, we were checked on often to see if we needed refills or needed anything. First experience here could not have been any better. Will definitely be going back.“

“me and a friend went last night, the atmosphere was a very chill and inviting vibe, Luke was our server and he was absolutely fantastic, one of the best servers I’ve ever had, we had great conversation and he was super knowledgeable and spot on with suggestions from the menu, this will be my new hangout spot for sure ! The drinks and food was very good and the staff is very friendly. It’s a great place for date night, friend hangouts or even family gatherings“

“It Was My Honey Birthday An He Wanted To Try This Place! We Really Enjoyed EVERYTHING Down To The Service Mrs T Was So Sweet. They Even Surprised Him With His Favorite Dessert. Thanks To The Staff For Making His Birthday Amazing. We Will Be Back!“

“My wife and I stopped here for dinner while in Raleigh based on a Raleigh website with recommendations. I am glad we stopped. It was very easy to find however the parking deck they recommend can be hidden if you don't know what to look for. They also pay for the parking which is nice. The food was very good, and the service was also. My wife got a chicken breast and I got wings. I would definitely go back here and recommend it to others.“

“A really nice and non-fussy sports bar with good food. We live in the neighbourhood so it's really convenient for us to pop by on nights when we're too busy or lazy to make dinner.The vibe is great. They've got TONS of screens and any event you want to watch on, just ask your server for help getting the right channel. They've also got a digital jukebox you could queue up music on, and it's always a nice lively place.The food is good too especially considering the price. It's standard pub fare with generous portions. I do wish some of the items were heavier on the seasoning but they do provide salt and pepper at the table.“

“Had at great time !! Jenny Colada“

“Rudinos was one of my favorite places to grab lunch when I first moved to the area over 20 years ago, and they were very popular, with multiple locations in the area.Sadly, I guess people moved on, because lots of their locations near me are gone, and the 2 times I've made the trip to this location to grab lunch in the past year, they were practically empty :(The food is still really good (even though they put less meat on their sandwiches than they used to).I hope there are other times where they are busy, because I would hate to see this location close down too :(I'll be in the area a little more often in the future, so I'll be sure to come grab a sandwich when I'm nearby.(also their pizza used to be amazing - not sure how it is now, but it's pizza - kinda hard to screw that up, so I'm assuming it's still good)“

“The food was so excellent tonight. Service was wonderful as well I believe the bartenders name was Jessica. We haven't been in since last year. I don't know if management of cooks have changed but there is something great going on here.“

“A Raleigh institution! I miss Rusty Bob & Tom Hanula but the PR is my favorite bar in Raleigh, hands down! Used to cut class at Broughton and go there to shoot pool. At 1 point in my youth I worked/ ate/ partied & probably even slept there. It may have matured a bit, or maybe just me, but I'll always think of the PR & I'll think of home...“

“I have been coming to Sammy’s since I was a kid. It has been my favorite spot among me and my friends, especially karaoke night and trivia! The place is always a fun time! The food is amazing, especially the wings, pizza and sides. The servers, specifically Q, Jojo and Maddy are some of my favorite people that have even become friends. The manager, Michelle, makes every customer feel welcome and is very on top of things. The bartenders make amazing drinks! Highly recommend this place for all your sports, drinking and fun night needs!“

“We came maybe one too many times. Our favorite spot to watch NC State games. And tonight the pack ran out of gas and the amazing run ended. Thanks Pack for so much fun this tournament season and thanks Buffalo Brothers for having such a wonderful place to enjoy the ride.“

“The chicken wings and the stick and cheese Sandwich are great. I highly recommend either one of these. If you're going to get something to eat there. This is just not a drinking hole. It's great to stop for lunch.Parking: Parking is out front and on the side.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to just roll in.“
