“2/14/2025: This is our go-to restaurant before attending NC State home wrestling matches. My husband enjoyed the Wolfpack Burger and I loved the chicken tortilla soup with the Chipotle Chicken Melt without the bread. We watched the end of the NC State baseball game while enjoying our food and adult beverages. Service was great. Love this NC State spot.

Parking: If after hours, you can park on NC State's campus.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible since you must climb a flight of stairs to enter.“

“We had our 40th birthday party here and Amy and her team exceeded all our expectations. We had rave reviews from all our friends about the food and how much fun they had! They even compared it to a wedding!

She worked with us to help find musicians and when the unforeseeable happened and our musician cancelled within 48 hours they worked round the clock to immediately find us a replacement. They were in constant contact with us regarding everything we needed and made our birthday party the best night ever! I haven't had that much fun since our wedding!

Highly recommend Hibernian for your private events the catering is FANTASTIC! They'll work with you for the bar tabs too and the upstairs space is fantastic!

We've also dined here before and stopped in for drinks during a mom's night out bar hop. Hibernian is perfect for any night out!“

“I almost hesitate to write a review because I don't want to ruin the place.
Food was great came out hot and fresh. Didn't take long. You can tell it has a lot of regulars. It's like your favorite burger bar from college. Even still plays the same music.
Has a pool table.

Locally there are so many places close by where you can get over priced food and drinks with sub par service. Then stands this shining star... affordable and the staff is cool... wait and the food is good.. holy cow.

So in short if your wife or girlfriend is shopping near by and you can sneak over come get a burger and a beer. There's a dunkin/baskin Robbins 31 close by so you can stop and get her a drink otw back and just say you dipped out to surprise her.

Cheers“

Also the patio is sweet and the beers are delicious and cold and I just really dig this place. 5 stars all around- but especially Rob.“
