Amazing food & ambiance! We will be back. Only complaint is having to pay for parking in a hotel parking lot not in downtown Raleigh
Vibes were good, place was bright and clean. We got there right when they opened at 5:30. Kids liked the mocktails. We ordered three burgers and a kids Mac and Cheese. It took nearly 30 minutes to get our food after we ordered. Burgers were quite overdone, my kids was basically black. Mac and cheese was great. I would definitely go back, but not if in a hurry and maybe order your burger one step below the temp you prefer.
I stayed three days at the hotel and had breakfast every morning. Vonny was great host/server! She welcome with big smile and ask how I was doing. She was very courteous, friendly and made sure my order was perfect. Thank you Vonny!

OMG. Laura is the best bartender I have ever had we drove 45 minutes just to see her and she make the best drinks. It’s a little pricier than we’re used to but she’s worth the drive. We have followed her for over four years. We shall return.

Had a wonderful meal at Flask & Beaker! The Southern Charcuterie appetizer was fantastic, and both the Shaved Rib Eye and Steakhouse Burger was cooked perfectly. The Columbia Winery Merlot was a great touch & I love their wine selection. Highly recommend this spot for great food and a solid wine list.
I just want to say this restaurant is a hidden gem I was greeted immediately with a warm smile I had the duality formula which was a watermelon jalapeño margarita which was amazing the bartender brought it to the table and even check to see how was it top tier service. We had the avocado lab bites which were amazing and calamari and shrimp dish(I can't remember the exact name) but it was so good it's served with a lemon aioli which the waitress said they make in house, for the main course I had the 16 oz ribeye with the espresso rub and red wine reduction which was fantastic I had it with a great Chianti which the bartender suggested the pairing and she was spot on. My waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable. 10 out of 10 I will be returning.
Service was VERY SLOW throughout our entire meal. No refills offered on our drinks, we were sat at a table with a weird unused computer monitor at elbow level...not sure what that was about. Food took forever and when we finally got it it was lukewarm even though I was warned about a hot plate (plate was not hot either.) I ordered the short rib and it was literally just a cube of meat...braised short rib should be falling apart and this meat was tough and full of chewy cartilage/fat pieces. They did take that entree off our bill since I couldn't even eat it, but I would still not return.
While looks great the food is terrible and not worth the inflated price tag.

Amazing Experience! From the moment I walked into Flask and Beaker, the service was outstanding — friendly and attentive the whole way through. I started with the Short Rib Nacho Destruction and it was insanely good. For dinner, the 16oz Cowboy Ribeyewas cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The drinks were delicious, and everything was very well priced. I can't wait to come back with a group of friends and do it all over again!
Limited options for vegetarians and no choices at all for vegans. The only vegetarian entrée is a heavy pasta dish, with zero vegetarian appetizers available. For hotel guests, this presents a challenge: there are no nearby restaurants for an evening meal, leaving delivery as the only alternative. Not great if you’re staying more than one night at this hotel.

A gem hiding in the woods! The complete lack of signage on the building and inside the hotel made it difficult to find but once found it was delicious ❣️

The service is very quick, efficient, and friendly. However, the food is overpriced and not worth the money. I will say the fries are AMAZING. I ordered the Hot & Sweet Chicken Sandwich for $17, and it was extremely sweet to the point of being inedible. The chicken was juicy, albeit flavorless and sticky with the sweet sauce. This sandwich is also not "Hot" at all, although the title suggests otherwise.
