Always good food. Usually have a good drink special. Patio is nice if it’s a pretty afternoon.
I absolutely love their pretzels, but this is also a great place for someone looking to hang out with friends and trying something new to drink, something familiar, or looking for a challenge over time to get your plate on the wall. Good food selection.

We went here for the first time yesterday and I became an immediate fan ? huge selection of beers, the giant pretzels are a MUST have and the atmosphere is wonderful. They have a super creative and fun club too — basically a point system for how many beers you try (something you gotta sign up for but it’s fun). Also, but shout out to our waiter Pat! He was so welcoming and knowledgeable and very attentive. Definitely going to be back ?

Came here for some welcome drinks for a wedding. The room in the back is quite small so it got pretty loud back there. I hear they have over 110 beers though and if you try them all you get your name on a saucer.
Oh my sweet dear baby St. Patrick! I was thrilled when I found out there was a Flying Saucer in Raleigh!! I recently moved from the Houston, TX area, where the big daddy Flying Saucer is located and was so sad to leave it behind. But yeehaww, I've got another one to go.If you have never gone to a Flying Saucer, go. The food is incredible, the staff super friendly and helpful, and the beer selection superb! I got the Buffalo Chicken wrap with fries, and a few beers. One of the beers was a whiskey barrel aged barelywine that was super tasty. My bar tender who's name I can't remember did a fantastic job and we got to chat a little while I was there. Definitely will be back soon!

Tuesday night at the Flying Saucer is trivia night and they get a good crowd. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Our server greeted us quickly and gave us the menus for both food and beer. They have over 100 different kinds. The saucers all over the walls and ceiling tell you that many many beers have been sampled. I got the chicken philly which came with fries (they were cold when they arrived). My wife got the Reuben and a side salad. The Reuben was loaded with lean corn beef, sauerkraut and served warm. Other than the cold fries, everything was good.

The atmosphere here is great and trivia Tuesdays is fun as well. Only reason for four stars is there’s a smell that tends to linger on your clothes.

Great hummingbird water and food always a fun time!! One of my all time favorite places and all the ECU Pirate Alumni go there! We love to have a great time and drink up buttercup as the ladies say if you're Greek!! So hands down fun all around and you can bring your kids too since we do bring them to Pirate Football games we keep our traditions intact! ECU Alumni gets the job done because the Pirates always have your back!!!
