Beer Gardens in Wilson, NC

“Really cute spot! The bartender today was really wonderful and funny. The couch at the door to be able to watch the whiriligigs (why we ended up in Wilson) was a really nice touch.

I will say I was disappointed with the one family who felt that the small space was theirs, and everyone else be damned. They were screaming, banging on the table repeatedly, and letting their children act like they’ve never been in public before- yelling, running around, one followed us around the bar loudly eating a bag of chips. He then sat directly next to us (not the next table close- he sat in the chair literally touching the corner of the couch where I was sitting) and watched loud videos on his phone while horking globs of snot into his throat until I asked him to move. Parents, if you see this- since you were loudly debating if you should have more children while resenting the ones you have- you should not. You should not have had those children in the first place. You are why people hate children at bars.

We would have spent more time here, but it’s a small space and this family was so terrible, we had to leave. I’m still giving five stars because I do understand that breweries feel forced to let children into their bars, but I wish a bit of decorum would be enforced- banging on tables, chewing in stranger’s ears, and loudly watching videos should be basic manners.“
