Fizzwerks has earned its place among Durham's best by doing what most seltzer makers won't: craft-brewing from scratch with the same care and precision as any top-tier beer. Forget the flavored fizzy water you're used to — Fizzwerks starts with an in-house fermented base and brews in real fruit juices to create seltzers with depth and character. The result: complex, refreshing and leagues beyond anything you'll find at the grocery store.
My two visits to Fizzwerks was exceptional! The immediate feeling of "home" from the moment we walked through the door speaks volumes about the inviting atmosphere and the genuine warmth of the staff and owners. Their hospitality is top-tier. We visited again two weeks later and were pleasantly surprised that they remembered us—a testament to their amazing customer service. Not just remembering us, but the stories we all shared and genuine care for my well-being during a tough time.
FOOD: The homemade, authentic pierogies are a culinary delight and truly the star of the show. ATMOSPHERE: The rooftop offers a great vibe, and the inside bar provides a cozy atmosphere.
DRINKS: Their drink selection is diverse and impressive, catering to all preferences with everything from tons of Seltzer options (Sweata Weatha is my favorite), to unique Mushroom NA seltzers, to expertly mixed cocktails. Highly recommended a visit!

Great hard seltzer and much more! If you love hard seltzer, this is a must. Inventive flavor combinations which work. They also off much more for drink options including wine, beer and liquor. Excellent specialty cocktails. Menu was perfect for snacking and socializing.
The staff was extremely friendly, attentive and helpful with samples and recommendations.
Finally, Fizzwerks is located in a perfect local to visit other restaurants and bars. Wonderful vibe in the area. Ample parking next to Fizzwerks but remember to validate or you will be charged.

I’m a little late on this because they’ve been open for months, but wow. Have y’all tried Fizzwerks yet? The seltzer is delicious, light, and clean-tasting and thoroughly enjoyable. I liked the fizztea the best, but I didn’t try a single one I wouldn’t go back for. But the food…wow. We tried about half of the menu tonight and I would go back for every single thing we tried. The mortar and pestle dip - I wanted to lick the plate. The beef stew (goulash) - tender beef, gorgeous sauce, amazing dumplings. The Turkish flatbread - unexpected, flavorful, and still fresh. The pierogies are some of the best I’ve ever tasted, the pickle fries were a delightfully crunchy and vinegar-y surprise, and the sloppy Joe grilled cheese is the very definition of comfort food.
Now. Let’s talk service. There was one server there tonight and he was absolutely delightful. He was so fun and funny and took amazing care of us. I would swear he never stopped smiling. The owners were also present tonight and both of them were so thoughtful and personable. I cannot say enough great things about this place and would seriously encourage anyone to check it out.

First time coming to this spot and it's cute. They have a rooftop and patio but it was a bit too chilly to sit outside even though it was heaters out there. I started with the cranberry pear margarita which was good and strong. I also ordered the chicken tenders with fries tossed in buffalo which was a bit salty but good. Then I did a set of flights to taste 4 different seltzers. I would definitely come back again to try the other seltzers and go on the rooftop. They do have there own parking lot on the side of the building but it's not big ,they did validate parking for two hours as well.

This bar is amazing! The food is incredible, everything is made from scratch in house with family recipes. The seltzers are incredible, they are all made with natural and wholesome ingredients and taste SO good. The cocktail menu is extensive and so yummy. Prices are actually soooo affordable for the quality. They have a rooftop deck that is heated, great vibes, great views, truly one of my new favorite places in Durham!

Highly recommend stopping in for a seltzer & trying their delicious food. My husband and I were delighted to know this is an Eagles bar & decided to go out to watch the game! Raegan & Andy were very friendly & provided a fun atmosphere for the game. We had the Philly roasted pork hoagie, fries and their homemade pierogis! Each dish was EXCELLENT! Additionally, we tried the G&T & pickle seltzer which were very tasty! Do not walk but run to this place for a fantastic night out in Durham!

Super cute place. Dog-friendly (possibly just limited to outside, not sure, but that’s okay because their rooftop patio is so nice!). You can order from your table with a QR code and they just bring everything to you. No worrying about slow service or having to flag someone down. Can also go inside to the bar to order, but I love the option of just relaxing at a table and ordering as you finish your current drinks. Their seltzer selection is awesome for someone who mostly can’t drink beer, and they have an extensive list of cocktail options and even some nice NA options. Will definitely be back — too many seltzers to try in one go, but so many of them were intriguing!

Great spot! My friends and I went in and purchased almost one of everything! Andy and Ragen were amazing and super accommodating! The chicken sandwich and sloppy Joe grilled cheese w/fries were both on point! Homemade ranch was delicious! We will return to try other menu items. Thanks for taking such great care of us!

Oh lord yes this chicken sandwich was the bomb! The seltzers are so good and well priced. The food is a little more expensive than maybe you'd expect but they have a really nice perspective on bar food here and I loved everything I ate. The staff were also super nice and helpful. Highly recommend. Love the rooftop area!
