12 Best Wine Bars near Carrboro

“We had a wonderful date night here. First of all, LOVE that they pay their folks a living wage! Taylor was our server, and was delightful -- we loved her recommendations, including the scallop croquettes (ommgggg SO good). We also scarfed down the delicious combination of a salad, brussels sprouts, and fries. And our Paper Plane cocktails were top notch. So glad to have this gem here in Carrboro!“

“Great place for a historically accurate classic cocktail!! William is an impressively knowledgeable bar tender. The atmosphere is very on point and the rotating menus and house options are excellent. High quality spirits and strong drinks make this a great option for the cocktail afficionado!“

“Carrboro’s best kept secret. Joe is a great bartender so the cocktails are on point and the food is too.“

“We've been to our fair share of tapas spots and all of the chef's current digs. Proximo was good, but I think it's trying too hard. The service was excellent. Our server knew everything (except what a paella was). He helped pair some fabulous wines and cordials. The cheese selections and the desserts were absolutely top notch and memorable. The other dishes were just alright. Unfortunately our ribs were a bit dry and the iberico was somewhat tasteless. The wine selection is short but unique and the lack of liquor license is a bit odd, considering their other spots have them. The price was great, but the dishes are rushed. Like, supersonic speed coming from the kitchen. I expected to spend some time there but everything happened so fast, we were in and out...not like a typical tapas. So, take that for what you will and maybe because it's a small seated area, their expectation is you come and go? Not sure, but I think they're trying something here that misses the mark.

Quick Edit: I don't know what some of the reviews are saying that you have difficulty choosing dishes and couldn't order all of them. Honestly, this place is so affordable. If you're a foodie, and you're coming here to review, there's no reason you can't fit the bill to try them all. We almost completed the menu and with a bottle of reserve wine and were quite happy with the overall price.“

“Very nice indoor dining, clean and spacious. Very reasonable prices.“

“I am giving this place four stars because they had a vegan dessert, sandwich, and an appetizer or two, as well as apparently vegan cocktails. We ordered dessert only. The vegan dessert is This Dessert is Bananas, which is a banana blondie, oatmilk vanilla ice cream and vegan caramel sauce. It was a lovely evening and we sat outside, although their indoor seating area was pleasant as well. We really enjoyed our desserts. The server said they always have a vegan sandwich that is vegan as-is, but are happy to veganize other items. She said they try to always have three vegan cheeses, which last night were feta, gouda and I forgot the last one! Anyway, really nice place, open late, easy parking, something for omnivores and vegans and gluten free (omnivores) as well. Note this is a second-story restaurant, you will have to climb stairs.“

“Enjoyed perfectly fried oysters and house salad paired with sparkling Rose. You should run not walk and have same!“

“Great coffee in a lovely location!“

“Without a doubt one if the finest restaurants in the Triangle. With great food and service, this classy spot always makes me happy!“

“As a local REALTOR, I spend a lot of time discovering eateries which are hidden away and what their specialties may be. The Belted Goat is one such example of THE BEST scones in the Triangle area. I often stop in to pick up a scone and coffee when I need a pick-me-up. Next time you're in or around Fearrington Village, stop in and try one for yourself. Get there early because they do sell out!“

“Great experience but a little pricey.“
