Kingfisher Reviews
Great spot for cocktails in Durham! We walked in with 6 guests and were seated right away. The service, drinks, and atmosphere were fantastic and we'll def be back!
Kingfisher serves cocktails with just enough of a variation to make them both familiar and original. I had their famous burger that harkened back to the much-loved burgers of my youth but again with fresh elements. I feel so lucky to have had the chance to eat + drink at Kingfisher!
Alberto was awesome! I had a coffee and gin drink, the name of which I don’t recall, but we enjoyed the vibes and conversation we had with him. Great place to hit up for a cocktail.

Kingfisher offers stellar drinks in a killer atmosphere, transporting guests to a funky NYC bar. The speakeasy vibe and spacious bar are highlights, perfect for date nights or jazz nights on Tuesdays at 9:00 pm. The friendly staff, including Robert, is known for their excellent service and helps in selecting from a variety of fun drinks, like the Morning Glory, the best cocktail in Durham, and the vodka pear gimlet, which received high praise. With cool seating areas, including a back room with a circular couch, it's ideal for groups or hanging out with friends. Guests can enjoy drinks while relaxing at the bar, tables, or comfortable cubby tables. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy, with upbeat music that allows for conversation. Kingfisher is considered a top-notch bar, setting a standard for others in the city, and even offers delightful treats like chai banana pudding ice cream. Though some diners suggest having more small plates, the overall experience is enjoyable and memorable, making it a place many look forward to returning to.
