15 Best Pubs in Raleigh

“A few family members and friends rode the Trolley for the first time this weekend to celebrate my brothers 21st birthday! Tom was our driver, and he was awesome. We stopped at 2 bars, played music and pedaled, pedaled, pedaled🚴‍♀️🍻“

“My brother and I arrived shortly after opening sat morning trying to kill some time before the game while our wives went shopping. We were quickly greeted at the bar by Conor and Kayleigh and served with a few drinks. The place was already starting to amp up, as it continued to pick up We still never saw the bottom of our glasses. Bartenders had great personalities and were very easy to get along with. Our family showed up about an hour later and we decided to eat there as well. It's bar food, nothing crazy, but was pretty good nonetheless. I will definitely return, if for nothing else, because of the amazing service from Conor & Kayleigh, top-notch!“

“Great live music venue!!!“

“Such an awesome vibe 8n this place!! Great music, friendly crowd, excellent sandwiches, cold beer, and several big screens with all the games on while you play pool or games. Something for everyone! I highly recommend this place!“

“One of my favorite little places to visit. Great food, good ambience, friendly service, great prices. I gat the same thing every time I go, and when they have their banana pudding on the menu? Delicious! I’ll be happy to visit again. Try the Dianwich, it’s my favorite!“

“My first time having Bangers and Mash which is sausage and mashed potatoes. Also had a Guinness to wash it down. My friends had the fish & chips and the Shepherd's pie, so we covered all the classics. Will be back the next time I'm in the area.“

“While the service, friendliness and ambience absolutely cannot be beat, this is a great reminder that one does not go to an Irish pub for the food. My wife had shephards pie that was pretty lame and my steak came with fries that were definitely subpar and a sauce that had been sitting out so long the top had already congealed. Great place for a drink with friends before dinner or after, just avoid the food.“

“Excellent beer choices and service!“

“Football at its best- and that is coming from an English man. Although the owner kev is a gooner fan but hey ho lol. Check it out.“

“Staff is prompt, kind, friendly, and barely noticed. The food and drinks are great tasting and at a pretty good price too! Portion sizes are pretty well fitting for the price, especially in Raleigh.

The only thing I wish they could do would be to repair the heating lamps on the second floor outside for better comfort in the cooler months, but they still have a couple working so it's manageable on slower nights.“

“We went before a Hurricane’s game. Great to see all the ‘Canes fans. I also appreciated the discount parking for the game.“

“If Rob sees this, or if someone else sees this who knows Rob, please tell Rob I found my debit card and he’s a rock star for helping my husband look so hard! I know you didn’t find it, and I’m sorry for wasting your time, but you helped me retrace my idiot steps until I found it!!

Also the patio is sweet and the beers are delicious and cold and I just really dig this place. 5 stars all around- but especially Rob.“

“I have stayed at this property many times but feel the need for some freshness as its begining to look tired. The food menu is very limited and could do with some new items. he staff at the front desk were not as welcoming as have been in the past.“
