Food was so good until we saw the fried chicken sandwich was raw and found a short grey brown hair in the nachos. Waiter and vibe was super cool tho ☹️

Overall Score: 8.3/10 – A spacious and clean bistro with attentive servers, high-quality food, and a welcoming atmosphere that’s perfect for a relaxing meal.

Atmosphere and Service: 8.5/10 – The bistro offers a large, open interior with unique decor and big TVs that enhance the experience. The outdoor area, though small, is well-maintained and adds to the charm. The staff is very attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. The bar area is sleek and inviting, contributing to the overall appeal of the space.

Menu: 7.9/10 – The menu offers a wide range of options and is more extensive than many similar establishments. Adding a few additional choices could make it even more appealing and elevate the dining experience further.

Burger: 8.3/10 – A wonderfully crafted burger with bold flavors and excellent quality. The combination of sauce, cheese, and a perfectly cooked patty makes each bite satisfying and flavorful. The bacon was crispy, the pickles added a nice touch, and the bun was soft and fresh. The fries were crisp and delicious, complementing the burger well. The price was reasonable for the quality and taste.

Margherita Pizza: 8.4/10 – A high-quality pizza with a perfect balance of flavors. The sauce was bold, and the cheese adhered well without sliding off or creating extra grease. The crust was excellent, with just the right amount of crispness despite a slightly soft undercarriage. Each bite was consistent and enjoyable, with a reasonable price for the size and quality.

Never got to sit. I don't understand the no-host, no-reservation concept. So you seat yourself, but when every table is full and there's multiple people waiting in the entry area, you're supposed to just fend for yourselves and hover over top of people who look like they're about to leave soon? This creates a stressful situation for the current diners and for those waiting. We just went down the street to eat instead. Won't come back to Bru's until they fix this. Quit being so cheap and just pay for a host.

Brus Public House is a fantastic spot, especially before catching a hockey game! So many canes fans here!

The Reuben with pickled jalapeños was absolutely stellar—perfectly balanced flavors and just the right kick. The rye bread is thick sliced and toasted to perfection. DO NOT pass up their truffle fries or try the poutine which is a rare find in Nc!

Service was top-notch: friendly, attentive, and prompt, making the whole experience even better. The young gentleman was super busy but he made you feel like a friend.

Drinks were strong and well-made, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. Highly recommend for great food, drinks, and vibes before or after a game!

It was mediocre for the price, might be better options nearby. Although they do have a pretty solid drink menu.

Really love this place before a Carolina hurricanes game but be warned! If it’s a 7pm game you better think about arriving by 4:45 for a chance to sit. Live their burger and Reuben.

Easy free parking in front. Service was 100%. Food was typical bar food. They have like 30 beers in tap, which is awesome. Bathrooms are clean and atmosphere is low light. I would comeback just based on how awesome the wait staff is.
