    We loved this place! The environment is awesome, and we loved browning the extensive selection of canned and bottled beer/wine and a great draft list. Next time we come we plan to try the food (which smelled phenomenal).

    Haven't been here in a few years, but I might be coming more often now! Had a delicious salad, and there's plenty of options for drinks that aren't beer: wine, seltzer, delta 8 and cbd drinks, and kombucha. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, too

    If I could give no stars I would. My husband and I (people of color) Went to state of beers tue @ 9:47pm. The bar tender told us they were actually closed and not pouring any more beers, but we could buy beer yo go. or go across the street. That was cool until we saw the bar tender pouring beer for two caucasian people. Close should mean closed for all.

    Love this place! The barbacks are really nice and good at recommendations. The beer selection both on tap and by the can/bottle is endless, so you're bound to find something to like, even if you don't like beer!

    I was surprised I hadn't heard more about this place. They had a great selection of beer, wine, cider and even CBD drinks. Our group tried several of the sandwiches and enjoyed all of them.

    Great service, our bartender was very cool and friendly, good beer and tasty food. It’s not a place for dinner, but you can easily get good sandwiches here, and won’t be disappointed. The hummus needs a little bit more seasoning though.

    An extremely good collection of the beers. Highly recommand the local brewery. I bought four pale ale by LBC and they are really good.

    Friend took me here for lunch. Beer was good as was the service. The sandwiches were delicious!!! Wide selection of brew on tap and many more in cans.

    It was a nice Monday evening. We were going here for a friends birthday. My first time and was pleasantly surprised. They had a sweet layout. Plenty of outdoor seating with heat lamps. Inside was a huge selection of craft beer (very expensive) They also have plenty of inside seating with a big bottle shop with beers and wine galore. A cool spot that I’d recommend once in a while, but you will break the bank if you go often.

    10/10 I love this place! Bartenders are great, beer is great and sandwiches are great!!! Drafts change seasonally as well as sandwiches. Vibes in and outside of the place are immaculate and music is from the record player. All around enjoyable place.

    Usually some really good, uncommon things on tap, and the beer shopping selection is one of the best in the area. I've only eaten the food once, but it was tasty when I did.

  • 2/5 Dan D. 1 year ago on Google
    A lackluster experience, especially compared to other locations with Trophy. Went to lunch here and was immediately disappointed in the lack of wheelchair accessibility. Not a clear way into the building. The bartender was friendly and helpful with the menu. Was surprised to find their are no options for soda here, when even Maywood has that. Sandwiches tasted good but chips only come as vinegar based, which was, odd. Tried to use the bathroom but the used kegs are piled in front of it so I couldn't fit my wheelchair in. Thankfully the bartender was there and helped move them. Not a great spot for people with mobility issues

    Nice outdoor seating friend staff good food.

  • 5/5 Carolina V. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing sandwiches, salads, charcuterie. Wine selection is excellent, beer is exceptional. They play music from their vinyl player so cool. There's a Foosball table. You can buy a bottle of wine and drink it there. Always bring our dog and sit outside. Great staff. One of our favorite Raleigh staples.

    Amazing wine selection with all of the smaller wine makers. Beer is great and love the records always playing. Very happy about them having a labeled vegan option. I got the My Boy Kirk and it was okay. Would like to see some other vegan options from here!! The staff is great. Will always return!

    Great selection for a bottle shop. Unique beers on tap. But they also have arguably some of the best sandwiches in the area. You won’t be disappointed. I have had multiple and haven’t had one that’s not excellent. Outdoor seating is great! With sails to provide shade. The vibe is relaxing and enjoyable with vinyl providing the music indoors and out. Bathrooms are small and clean. They also have a Citrix bike rack right outside the shop.

    Great selection of canned and draft beer! Food is great as well. Nice outdoor area and very large indoor area in downtown district.

  • 5/5 Erica F. 2 years ago on Google
    The best place for sandwiches in Raleigh! Great rotating taps, cans and wine selection. You must get the pasta salad… you won’t be disappointed!

  • 5/5 Alex W. 2 years ago on Google
    Cool space, really great selection of beers to go. Small selection on tap but solid variety. Friendly staff. Foosball tables and a decently large space. Lunch menu looked pretty good.

  • 5/5 Justin Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Truly excellent little bottle shop and tap room. Quiet atmosphere where you can hear everyone and enjoy yourself. The staff is excellent, as is the Dad Fuel

  • 5/5 Michael W. 1 year ago on Google
    I really enjoyed this place. I would love of they expanded their beer selection to local states as well to get what we cannot get in the area. I really loved the food. It was amazing. Caprese sandwich and the olive and cheese board was great. Only wish they would have had a dry red wine by the glass like a cabernet. I was sold on an orange white wine which I usually wouldn't have done. The staff really makes this place. They are so friendly and interesting and understand the local area. I totally enjoyed it overall. Great space that could be used for events too so give them a call for that. Tons of outside seating area for a nice day in Raleigh!
