    Brickhouse Sports Bar & Grill located at 3801 Hillsborough St, Raleigh, NC 27607 is a great (best of!!!) Sports Bar - many, many very large Screens to watch whatever Sporting events are on. The waitresses are friendly, and this place has a cool vibe to it. Highly recommended. Food was good too! Better many than a typical sports bar has.

    This is a cool venue. We went there for Friday Night karaoke. It was amazing. It is by far the best karaoke and the Raleigh area that we have come across so far. The karaoke DJ has an app that you can download and you don't have to ride with paper and go up to the BJ to submit your song. You can see the screen and who is next. However, I noticed that the DJ did Skip around. He chose whoever he wanted first because there were times when names with jump around on the list. I ordered buffalo wings and they were pretty good for buffalo wings. The quesadilla was okay. I love the chicken and dumpling soup. It was very nice and the scallions added a nice touch to them. The waitress Tyra was amazing. It was so sad that she had to end her shift but she was great. Overall I had a great time at this place and we will definitely be back and bring more friends.

    👇🏻Someone didn’t bother to read on the menu that they had a freezer issue that wiped out a ton of their food. Instead of closing and disappointing their customers, the staff hustled and put together a bare bone menu to save the day. Sports First! Beware of certain fans whose teams lost posting bad reviews. This place, the staff and food are great for anyone who loves sports. If you’ve got a problem talk to a manager not behind their backs. Love this place. Oh yeah GoFins!

    First visit and I'm blown away. Was looking for a sports bar to see the game and they deff have you covered. They seem to be pro patriots but that makes it even more fun. The food was fantastic, it matched what is displayed. The server was fantastic and gave great suggestions from food to drinks. Everything came out in a timely manner even with them being packed. Ray was our server and I would love to have him again.

    I came here on Friday for Karaoke night and the server was AMAZING the food and drinks were great! I wish I could give 5 stars but unfortunately the DJ for Karaoke was very selective of who he was letting sing and not sing. I put in multiple request and wasn’t getting chosen while also seeing the same people going up there. Then when he finally did pick me the moment I got up there he yell at me like I was a child. He was upset because of the amount of request I put in. But it was many of us at our table who wanted to sing and I was the one who downloaded the app on my phone and then he told me “you’d be lucky if I even let you do 3 songs tonight” while yelling at me in front of my friends and so I just said I didn’t even want to sing no more. I went back to my table and we closed out our bill and left. I was hoping for a great time this was my first time doing Karaoke Night and just moved to the area. And not how I expected my night to go. I won’t be back 🙄

    Even though the place is huge, it was still packed! Clearly there's a lot of people that love this place. I enjoyed the fact that it was an eclectic crowd, a mix of students and of a more "mature" audience. Karaoke was a blast and our waitress was awesome. Was a little bummed that two of the pool tables were closed, so we never got to play. But that was the only downside.

    Great atmosphere for NC State away games! Staff is very friendly and you feel like a true NC State fan in this bar. Each day they have a special drink or beer you can save money on. Highly recommend.

    This was my first time at Brickhouse and I had a good time. Karaoke was fun to watch and the food was good. It can get extremely loud but overall good place.

    Love this place! My family had a waitress named serai or Sarah or something and she was by and far the best waitress I've had in a LONG time. Super cheerful, and hilarious. We ordered a LOT of food and everything was just right (we have some picky eaters). Also our drinks were never empty.

    Ordered takeout because parking was CRAZY and the place was packed. I really loved their French fries when they were hot and fresh, but by the time we got home the room-temp fries were not as good. The turkey club desperately needed Mayo, and the bread was soft like a grilled cheese bread instead of crispy like toasted bread, which was disappointing. Their sloppy Joe mix was very sweet tasting, mostly the taste of ground beef and ketchup. Based on our experience, I’d be willing to come back and try other things.

    Went in on a Sunday afternoon it was not busy at all. Service was super slow, QR code menu was not accurate as far as what they were offering. Food order was incorrect. What we did have to eat was pretty good. They do have a good alcohol selection and plenty of tvs to watch a game.

    I just experienced The Brick House last sunday. I was there to watch a New England Patriots game and this is really the only sports bar in town that cares about this team. I love the atmosphere, as it's always more fun to cheer your team on with fellow fans. People were enjoying the food and it was pretty busy right up until 4:00 p.m.

    Busy bar on a Friday night for karaoke! Close to NCSU there was a good mix of all ages and people in attendance. It gets busy pretty quickly in there and service does start to slow (understandable). Large enough place though with both indoor and outdoor (pet friendly) seating.

  • 5/5 Chaplain Chris L. 6 months ago on Google • 58 reviews
    Wow! The food here in insanely good! The staff was also very accommodating and helpful. I would definitely come back to try other food on the menu. If you’re in the area and like bar and grill atmosphere and food, this is definitely a place to check out!

    The bartender was very neglectful. Food....ok Guess it's a good local hang out, but if you aren't a college student find another place

    Great place for football if you’re looking for Sunday night quiet setting

    My family and I (about 15) had pictures taken down the road and wanted to grab some food. The manager who assisted us was great! Super nice and wanting to work with us. The waitress that waited on us was awesome! She handled our large party with ease. Every staff member that we came across asked if we needed anything, even with them having their own customers. The food was amazing! I will be going back whenever I'm in that part of Raleigh.

    I had my bridal shower them on February 17 and it was amazing. My first time there. My bridal team picked the spot because of the karaoke. It was awesome.

    Best sports bar I've seen so far

  • 5/5 Michael D. 3 years ago on Google
    I am from Boston but always will make a trip to the Brickhouse whenever I am in town. Such a fun atmosphere. Wings are the best along with many other menu items. Managers go out of their way to make you feel at home. I'm a big Bruins fan and the Manager put on the hockey game at my request on one of the TV's during a football game on the other monitors. Best Sports Bar I've been to!!!

    The atmosphere of Brickhouse is unlike any other establishment in Raleigh!! It is like heaven on earth for sports fans. GIANT screen TVs that line the walls with any game you could imagine, the best hot wings, ultimate beer selection, and the friendliest service. You cannot go wrong for this game day spot!

    Good food and service tonight. The nachos and burger were cooked as ordered. My club was good as well. Plenty of TVs !!!

  • 5/5 Riley P. 3 years ago on Google
    LOVED this place and had the best server named Sara! My experience was made my the amazing service and the atmosphere. Sara was behind the bar making the best drinks and her fun personality added to a fantastic time! I would go back just just for the service!

    We spend almost every Friday night at the Brickhouse doing Karaoke with DJ Stevie — he himself is an amazing singer, has a sweet personality and always programs in a mid-set line dance break to keep the crowd alive and engaged. The whole atmosphere is fun and the staff here are all amazing and sweet, part of the whole party. The food is always a surprisingly good delight — so good for your standard bar food fare!!

  • 5/5 Tamara N. 2 years ago on Google
    This is such a great place to hang out near NCSU and Meredith. Daily drink specials. Their wraps are delicious! Shoot pool any time or karaoke when available. Outdoor seating is a plus. Watch sports while you're there!

  • 5/5 Bob 2 years ago on Google
    On a wym we stopped to try this place. Typical bar food. Service was great food was awesome. Staff first class. Was so impressed with the first visit that we decided to go back and try them again. Staff remember us from the other night and recommended something different. Wife wanted a custom drink and did they knock it out of the park. Bartender recommended another type drink and bam!!home run !! Highly recommended and will definitely be back again thanks for the memories!!!!!!!! :-)

    As a longtime resident of Raleigh, I know that with ten big-screen TVs, the best place to watch a sporting event is Brickhouse Sports Bar and Grille. Offering both indoor and outdoor seating, pool tables, and karaoke on Fridays, it’s no wonder it is a favorite of locals. The food is amazing (the chicken sandwich and fries never disappoint!), the service is excellent, and the staff is always so accommodating. Stop by for the next big game and see for yourself!

    So went we’re looking for a restaurant near our hotel. We saw this restaurant and decided we would try it! Walked in and sat down! The menu came up on our phones and we decided what we wanted! My son chose the bootleggers burger and I chose the one with bacon and grilled onions. The waitress was name Emma I think and she was great. She brought out our drinks right away and took our order. The food came out quickly and the 1st bite was Amazing! Best burger I’ve had in a long time. My son’s burger was delicious too according to him and my grandson ordered a veggie burger was huge but the 6 year old ate every bite! We will be back the next time we visit! It was great!!!!

  • 5/5 Raj J. 2 years ago on Google
    Love that this is a bar for New England sports fans. They usually have the audio on for any NE game of relevance (even over local teams). Couple that with a good beer selection and decent food... What's not to love (for us New Englanders at least :)?

  • 5/5 Garrett K. 1 year ago on Google
    Come for the great bar food and fast service, but stay for the obnoxious O H I O fans! 1st time in and it didn't disappoint. Atmosphere would have gotten 5 stars if not for the terrible Ohio chant 🤣 Seriously though, thanks Brickhouse for a great overall experience. Go Canes!🤷‍♂️😊

  • 5/5 Joe S. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing place to watch NC State football games. Great service and good food. Atmosphere is incredible with during college football season with TVs and projectors wrapping the entire bar and tons of seating.

  • 4/5 jay s. 1 year ago on Google
    Didn't expect much when we walked in, but, wow! For regular sports bar fare, the food was good. Everything came out hot and just prepared. Now I realize it wasn't from scratch, but it also didn't taste like it had been sitting out. My chicken sandwich was hot and crispy, fires were great! Service was good. Our waitress was very responsive and genuine. I'm ready to go back! Thanks!

  • 5/5 Josh B. 2 years ago on Google
    100% recommend this place as a Patriots fan. The sense of community is through the roof. Great food. Great people. Jerseys sold inside! Can’t beat it. I’ll be going here EVERY WEEKEND there’s football to be had.

  • 5/5 Christine W. 1 year ago on Google
    We came by because my boyfriend remembered coming here all the time in college. The Black Jack I got was delicious and so were the wings. Do not under any circumstance try the coleslaw: it’s quite dreadful flavor wise and texture wise. Everything else we had, including sweet potato fries, was fantastic. Playing billiards afterward was really fun, too! Hope we can come back again sometime. The waitress we had was also super friendly and considerate.

  • 4/5 Michelle C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to watch a game. A bit noisy inside, but it's a sports bar/grill! Lots of beer on tap at reasonable prices. Food is decent. Large deck outside, really like sitting at the outdoor tables. Popular place, lively, good atmosphere. Fairly young crowd. Will go back.

    A great filling vegan option! The pineapple cider is a great addition. Service was a little slow but great overall! Thank you!

  • 2/5 Jocelyn C. 2 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    I received the wrong order and was told they would take it off the check. Then the manager decided to only take 50% off even though that wasn’t what I ordered at all. They should have just took the wrong order back to the kitchen and brought out what I actually ordered but didn’t for some reason. Unfortunately I didn’t have time to sit around and speak to the manager directly so I didn’t get her name but it was a white lady. Customer service is everything so I have no reason to go back again ?

    No longer a Patriots-friendly bar! I asked the Manager (who was wearing a Cleveland tee-shirt) if he could put the Patriots game on one of the 5 big screen TVs on the main wall. He said no he wouldn't because there weren't enough Pats fans there. I pointed out that the majority of people there were Pats fans, most of them wearing Pats gear. It has also been known as a Patriots hang out. He told me the place no longer caters to Patriots fans. I asked him if that is official and he said yes, emphatically. A few minutes later he was staring at me across the room from the kitchen doorway so I pointed out to him all of the Patriot's jerseys in the room. So, he gave me the finger! Yes, the Manager gave a PAYING CUSTOMER the finger for pointing out the majority of his customers are Pats fans! I will no longer be going there for sure.
