Chill super local spot in the old cardinal taxi HQ. DEFINITELY get a hot dog, even if you’re not hungry. Its delicious. They’ve got a solid beer and liquor selection. Grab a hat while you’re there after your third drink. They also have a great view of DTR and decent porch space if you feel like sitting outside. Quirky signs about not being an a$$hole all throughout the building.

I didn't try the hotdogs, but they were EXTREMELY popular. Super friendly staff with a large outdoor seating area (heated). Great drink prices.

Great unique spot. The hotdogs are the food they have and they are amazing! The bartenders aren't always the friendliest but they are fine and the drinks are good. Love stopping in here for a snack and a beer. You can also bring dogs on the outside patio.

Came in on a rough day, the bartender was so kind. And they sell hotdogs, it’s a dream.

Super cool dive bar in Raleigh. Stopped in for an afternoon beer while on a motorcycle ride. The bartender, Jennifer, was super friendly and helpful, and quite a looker too. Would recommend.
Shannon and Patrick are the greatest! Cardinal has the best weiners in town! I always feel the love of other folks in the industry when I walk in. 20/10 will be back.

This place is consistently good! But make no mistake, this is a bar that serves hotdogs and not a restaurant. I’m a big fan of the fresh jalapeño toppings and pickled okra.
