“I believe the owner has not been here too long. Place clean good food and friendly. Needs good paint job and new tile on floor. With that taking place give it a 5 star.”
“The bar and grounds close at 5, not 6 pm (like Google says) in February.The bar owner was very sweet. She asked if we needed anything and let us stay a few extra minutes to look at the view of the lake.Kid-friendliness: Lots of playgrounds for kids outside the restaurant.”
“My favorite place to eat when I'm in town. I'm always with a big group. Amazing food. ❤️Kid-friendliness: They do have chicken nuggets for the picky eaters out there. ❤️”
“Folk at work said this place had roaches. I tend to not believe what people say so I've been here a few times and the food has been great and affordable. The customer service is dry and the decor is super outdated but I'm not dining in.”
“Hands down the best tacos in the Butner Creedmoor area, possibly in Granville county. And run by the sweetest people too. Don't forget to ask for the red sauce”
“Only reason I rated atmosphere so low is they have like 8 fans on high and it's super cold! Which is fine in the summer, but not now that it's cold out. Otherwise nice people and good food.”

“This Arby’s was exceptional! Bigger menu and the friendliest staff ever. Felt like they liked each other and were happy in their jobs. Excellent service and food. We’ll look forward to stopping here again!”
“Lovely cocktails, tasteful but complex flavors- these are thought out fusion concepts. Excellently executed space. Our bartender/server was just awesome! We’re fans. Bangin playlist on, too!”
“This place is fabulous! The wine selection is so good. They let you taste the wines to ensure that you like the glass you order. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable about wine. The ambience is perfect! There are incredibly comfy chairs, beautiful artwork, great music. This is the place to go for an awesome night with a date or with friends. Quintessential Durham!”
“Really great food! We enjoyed the Paneer Makhani and Lasooni Palak. I also ordered the Tandoori Chicken. We enjoyed our meal, loved the atmosphere, and the service was great. My only complaint was I wish the Tandoori Chicken came with more chicken - there were only 4 chicken wings for $17. Other than that, I would recommend.”
“The Velvet Hippo is a vibe in itself! I first went months ago and I haven’t stopped coming back! I love this spot and highly recommend checking it out if you haven’t yet! It’s spacious with an amazing outdoor area overlooking downtown Durham. The decor is incredible and one of a kind which only increases the welcoming yet groovy atmosphere! The drinks are always well thought out and balanced and the food is always delicious! Having said all that one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back to this rad women owned spot is it’s staff! They are all amazing! Especially Sarah! No matter how long my week might have been I know I can always come and immediately be cheered up by her infectious personality and friendly demeanor! She always has a smile on her face and never fails to entertain! Not to mention her A-plus skills behind the bar. She is one of my fav bartenders in the triangle! So do yourself a favor and put the Velvet Hippo on your itinerary for a night out in Durham! You won’t regret it!”
“Everything they make here is absolutely delicious! Additionally, the service is super friendly. They also sell beautiful and delicious chocolates now as well :-) Definitely recommend!”
“Such a cute, dog friendly, and kind atmosphere! The coffee was delicious and came out quickly, but the service was top notch! I wish the seating area inside was a little bigger but it also adds to the charm of the place. Will definitely be back.Dietary restrictions: Many different options for milk alternatives and vegan options! They also ASK instead of just assuming, which is appreciated.”
“Coming from Houston and not being able to find Mexican food that I like here in NC. I can honestly say this place has good food good nice homestyle food and feel to the place. Would ”
“The ambience feels as though you're someplace far away, but in a good way. It's a great place to have a conversation for the first time, at the bar, or sit off at a table to catch up. I hadn't been since before CVid times and will definitely be going back sooner! Appreciate their creative bartenders and their lovely menu of mocktails and cocktails.”
“I dream of Omie’s specialty drinks…no seriously. My friend once drove from Durham to Asheville with the Mabel in a thermos so it was hot and ready for me, THAT is how much I adore it. Don’t get me started with the seasonal menu. I’ve only visited in person a time or two, but the baristas have always been so warm and friendly. You can tell Omie’s takes pride in their coffee, their community, and the way they care about their customers. All the love back to you, Omie’s ❤️”
“The Birria tacos were awesome. The regular non-birria items were average.Service: Really good service. Some little issues with language with the person taking order.”
“Durty Bull is an excellent brewery. I had the rice lager and two hazy IPAs while there. All are excellent beers! There’s tons of outdoor seating but the main taproom area has a small cozy feel. The mojo of the place is great and it has a nice vibe overall. Craig, who was working, is extremely friendly and very knowledgeable. Lots of beers on tap and a good selection of to-go options. I’d definitely recommend this brewery.”
“came in for lunch with my lil dude and had Hot dogs! As usual the staff and service was AWESOME! EVERYTHING was DELICIOUS!lil dude SMASHED his dogs and was happy. We'll be back!!”
“I’m sitting here now and it’s feels like I’m in my mom’s kitchen I haven’t had Spanish food this good in a long long time. Service was great music was on and was very ”
“One of my favorite spots to grab a sweet treat in Durham. I love their flavor offerings from classic ones like vanilla, chocolate, cookies and cream to their more adventurous ones like pizza, there's something for everyone. Their ice cream is truly so delicious and the flavors are always on point. I love getting the waffle bowl, who doesn't love an edible bowl? Eating the crispy bits around the edges and then getting to the soft, icecream soaked center of the waffle bowl is my favorite part. I also enjoy that it's right next door to Hi-Wire and a pizza spot so I can grab a brew and a slice if I feel like it and people watch in the courtyard outside. Great icecream and definitely a staple in Durham!”
“I tried his food years ago, when he just had the grill and his truck. His chicken, rice, and beans are delicious! I am a long time, frequent customer. The prices have gone up a bit, but it's still good.”
“This place is amazing!!! The food, the drinks, the vibe is all 10 stars!!! We had the absolute best date night here while on vacation and would definitely come again. I wish there was one closer to our house. I would highly recommend checking them out. You won’t regret it.”
“This is such a great spot for when the weather is warming up! They have PLENTY of seating which is really important for me especially when the weather gets nice. Parking is also super easy! Their selection is great and their staff was able to help me and even let me try a couple of beers before I picked the one I wanted. Their idea of $1 snacks is so neat and very well received. The perfect finger food/munchies while enjoying a nice beer. I have been to many breweries but this was is by far one of my favorites!”
“Quite possibly the best food truck experience I've ever had. Señor Fidel was insanely nice, and the food is beyond anything I've ever had. This is fantastic. I wish that I could eat this every day.”
“The coffee is great and the cinnamon rolls on Saturday are out of this world.It's a great space to have a nice espresso, relax, or get a little work done.Parking: Parking in rear of building”
“This is a very nice venue to see a band. I appreciated that they had water and cups available to refill as you wanted. It was nice getting it myself and not having to wait in line at the bar. All the staff I interacted with were very nice.”
“This is one of my top five restaurants in this area. I love love love the food. The service is always top tier. Sometimes I find myself dancing while ordering food because it’s always a nice tune playing on the radio. Some days I done in and it’s always nice and clean. Some days I order my food to go. Either way I am never disappointed with the service or my food! ❤️”
“Ordered the charcuterie board subscription. Delicious! I love charcuterie boards. My family of four enjoyed the board for several days. I actually enjoyed every single thing about it. Everything was fresh and tasty. Can’t wait for the next one.”
