The blue note is the premier spot in the triangle area for Blues music! The food is great, the Tuesday jam sessions are awesome! It's a great place to listen, play, or dance as well as eat delicious barbecue and other dishes!

First time going here... the best workers, the best customers, and some amazing food and music. The room was alive it was something like we've never experienced before... turned a bad stormy rainy night into a fun-filled night. My wife wants to go here for her birthday and I don't blame her.
There wasn't an option for me to select Mac and cheese but they have some good ole Mac and cheese.

Music was great ‼️ food leaves a lot to be desired- but the fries were excellent

BBQ + a little jazz today. Friendly service. The brisket bowl w rice, black beans, and a little feta and chipotle sauce was outstanding. Will definitely be back.

As a life long resident of NC of 35 years, I have eaten some PHENOMENAL BBQ in my time. I have not had BBQ and ribs this good in at least 15 years. First time I've been to this restaurant, and I WILL be back. Everything was excellent. The service, the atmosphere, the food! The side dishes, omg!! I cannot recommend the green beans highly enough! They cook em right! Seasoned with bacon and onions. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. Mom got the chili and it's to die for!
Wheelchair accessibility: They had ramps into the building and down to the seating area. Bathrooms were also ADA compliant. My mother has severely impaired mobility and we had no trouble navigating the building.

Ordered food and a beer. I had to get up to ask for utensils for my food and soup. Had to get up again because no spoon for soup. Then had to get up again to ask for napkins. Once I unwrapped my pulled pork sandwich, you can see the bottom bun through the meat. Manager said “looks fine to me”. I left a tip BEFORE my food came out to close out my ticket. I left hungry and spent $23 on a small kid sized pulled pork and a beer. Wont go back. Great music though!

My group had the tasty brisket taco appetizer (one small taco each), and two of us had the cow jumped over the moon burger, which we both enjoyed. The menu says the burger is made with a blend of short rib and chuck, topped with roasted bacon onion jam, roasted garlic aioli, and Brie cheese. It was fantastic and juicy. The six-ounce burger, two sides (think I got collards and fries), and appetizer were portioned well for me as a petite female. We also got tasty adult beverages- an old fashioned, which I heard was good, and two of us relived our college days with a cheap beer and shot of Avion tequila combo. Our server was friendly, timely, and helpful, and the local jazz band was skilled in voice and instruments. Being at the front and center table, near the band, it was quite loud, especially having members of our group with limited hearing. We still had a great time and will return. By the way, on a previous visit, we had bread pudding for dessert, and it was really good- try it if you’re a bread pudding fan, or even if not!

Worst ran restaurant I’ve ever been to.. sat at the bar for 20 minutes waiting for service while the bartenders talked to each other. Watched several people get up and leave and I watched the bartender laugh about it. Parking is horrible so I opted for a table and had a wonderful server however watched the food runner almost drop a tray of food several times. She almost delivered our food to the table next to us. Sitting at a table still meant waiting on drinks from the bar. Finished my entire meal before we got drinks. I can only imagine how much money the bartenders are costing this restaurant. Probably won’t be back but our server was amazing despite the poor management.

The BNG feels like a home for blues and music lovers. The owner, Bill, is kind and personable. The food is good, and the Blues jam on Tuesday night is like nothing we've ever seen before! Waitresses are great, too! One of the most fun bars we've ever been at!

This is the place to come and it's always a good time. We listened to their house band we were totally pleased. FREE admission to an awesome band. They also have a guest band that plays later in the night. The menu..so awesome. The food is perfection. I had my very favorite french fry. That says a lot. You will have a great time. If you have your dancing shoes on there is a floor. It's very layed back or dress up. Make a date of it. I love it here.
