Our favorite Durham bar! Good place to watch games, great beer and cocktails. We haven’t joined the bike club but like their trivia nights and walk club, they have a bunch of other events on their calendar. They are dog friendly and have a dog park next door. Some outdoor seating and usually a food truck. Parking is free for 2h in the lot right across (although not strictly enforced in our experience), but also easy street parking. And you can order food with free delivery from timber pizza or torero’s next door. Adam the owner is super nice. They’ll play whatever you want, we always come for women’s basketball games and they’ll find the channel we ask for.

Nice little brewery spot with a good selection of beers. I had an excellent American pale ale and my friends tried a stout and a blonde beer. Good place to watch sports and hang out. Only drawback is they do not serve food. You can order from a Mexican place next door but it would be great if the brewery offered some simple bar food options. Overall, I liked this spot and would definitely come back.

Both IPAs I had were tasty. Place had a cool vibe. Seems like they have activities most every night they are open. Would go back again if Im in the area.

Was my 1st time here, attended an event planned by an online group. The bartenders were great and the manager was awesome. Good atmosphere and location. Was easy to find parking. Will definitely go back!

Good looking bar, but the beers are even better. Staff is friendly and professional. If you like the beer, there are several selections available in cans to take home.
