The Atomic Fern Reviews
My favorite in Durham so far. Great tunes, casual but intimate vibe, biggest collection of board games I've seen at a bar, and a bartender who was funny and sharp-tongued in a good-hearted way, deep down. Good beer options too.
This little bar has an amazing assortment of board/car games and a nice variety of beer and other drinks. I would highly recommend going on a game night because it's a nice way to meet new people and try new games. They don't have food, but you're allowed to bring it in, so that's really fun! Would definitely recommend!
Nice nook for drinks, board games, live music and snacks. Seriously they have every board game. Lovely musicians playing on a weeknight and friendly staff. Overall pretty quiet space, nice if you want to have conversations over drinks and games!
