Love this bar! Great drink selection, lovely bartenders, and a friendly neighborhood vibe. Also, it's very clean ✨ and usually there's plenty of parking nearby (in the parking lot by the farmer's market and side streets around it)

Bartenders were super friendly! Love the communal style tables! The drinks were sooooo good!! And if you are a sweet pretzel type of person I HIGHLY recommend! That was the softest warm hug of a pretzel ever!

This is a great hangout spot, for couples and friends. They have board games and a variety of on tap beers and cocktails! Yes, cocktails too. I had a great time and both my beer, and cocktail were delicious. The staff were also attentive and friendly. Will definitely be coming back with a crowd :)

Super friendly people, loved the ambiance, board games were fun! Drinks were very cool and weren’t just simple. They were complex and I tasted the thought they put into it!

I've never had a beer from Glass Jug that I didn't like! They also have draft cocktails now as well and they are amazing too. Their patio also has some of the best people watching in Durham and you can bring in food from the food hall.

We love Glassjug beers and would call ourselves frequent-ish visitors. Their Pi Goses are always the best. But tonight our customer service experience made me want to come back. Eliyah was incredible - made spot on recommendations, was kind, and overall provided a super welcoming experience.

First of all I HATE BEER, but the staff is what makes this place. Even though I didnt finish any of their recommendations. The understanding was very nice. "Sorry we couldn't find anything you like. Not everyone likes beer, though" Thats just 101 being balanced and respectful of your customer.

Such a fantastic place to hangout with your friends, meet amazing people, and drink some of the highest quality beers I have ever tasted from a craft brewery. Thank you Glass Jug! 10/10

Love this place. People are friendly and drinks are reasonably priced. They got a number of seats at the patio to chill out while watching people go by at Central Park.

Great location right next to the food hall and has outdoor seating. We loved that they are so inclusive and already moved to unisex bathrooms. The beer is great.

Be aware if you get double charged for purchases they expect you to present your credit card at the location in order to fix their error. Thank you for your timely reply. The issue has been resolved. I also want to say that we enjoyed our experience at the Durham Glass Jug. The Opacity was a very nice Hazy IPA
