Bitters is neat place to grab a drink or hang out with friends. They have a neat selection of drinks and places to hang out. Great place to play games or check out the local art work. They also host special events throughout the year. Definitely a great place to check out while in the area!

Smoked old fashioned on one of the best little patios in town

The epitome of a hidden gem in the Greensboro area. Seriously, without a doubt, and hands down one of the funnest vibes you can have when you want to enjoy a fun afternoon in the sun on an amazing patio, a quaint evening inside this beautiful home turned into a lounge, enjoy eclectic drinks with your significant other or friends, or just about any time you want a fun day or evening out. Don't miss this one. This is a newer addition to the State Street vibe, located next to Mizumi Sushi. (Pro tip and side note, if there's an hour plus wait at Mizumi, put your name in and come here and experience this venue for a few drinks while you wait. You'll be back next time just for this.) We walked up to the gorgeous exterior on a sunny Saturday afternoon in March. Our eyes ate first and took in the amazing exterior and patio with a flourishing garden. Pics speak for themselves. First impressions were second to none. The drinks, service and ambiance followed it to a tee... We were greeted warmly by Daniel, the bartender manning the eclectic bar. Funny, personable and knowledgeable, all qualities if a great bartender. If you can, make sure to enjoy his humor and knowledge when you're there. The drinks speak for themselves. "Oh Snap!" for me and a personal concoction for my wife came first. My wife wasn't sure what she wanted, but told Daniel she was thirsty for something light and fun that she could enjoy on their beautiful patio in the sun. Sure enough, Daniel made a personal cocktail perfectly fitting for her that she could enjoy on this sunny afternoon day. Again, the experience here was on a whole different level...thank you. Following up, I had a smoked old fashioned, after which you could smell the pleasant aromas of the smoke used for this cocktail. Many senses got to enjoy it here to the fullest...sight, smell and taste. Something special happened next, which you can't have at 99.9% of cocktail lounges across the whole US. Daniel pulled out a bottle of 23 year old Pappy van Winkle, of which I got to taste a 1oz pour. Any bourbon aficionado out there will know what I'm talking about. And if you want some of this delectable bottle, be sure to drop by soon. Again, thank you for an amazing experience, we will definitely be back. Be sure not to miss this truly amazing hidden gem in Greensboro.

I love the vibe of Bitters Social House. You walk in & it literally feels like you're visiting a friend's home. The staff are super outgoing and very helpful when it comes to recommendations! The hand-crafted beverages are delicious! Their atmosphere is quaint and relaxing, and they have 2 outdoor patio sections. Plus you could just stop in to shop & grab goodies for a bitters or cocktail lover...even enough to curate a gift basket! They have something for everyone and truly want you to feel welcome while there.

We visited this new bar/shop during a rainy Sunday afternoon and will absolutely be back. They have a wide selection of bar supplies including bitters and similar items that are often hard to find - many of which can be a great start to inventing your own drinks. They also have a bar and a lot of unique, comfortable seating which is great for a drink with friends. The vibe is comfortable and not loud so it can be a nice place for a relaxing drink. They have great drinks and a nice selection of on-tap beers (and at least one cider).

Cute spot for a drink! Love the rooms and seating upstairs too. Also love that they support local art.

I've been to George's Garage a few times now. It's close enough to downtown to be convenient but…read morejust outside the busiest part, which makes it a little easier to get to and gives it a more relaxed feel. The space has a laid-back, industrial vibe and does a great job honoring the building's history. This is the third business I've seen occupy this location since moving to Greensboro, and I love that they kept the original garage door windows while giving the space a fresh identity. Between the craft cocktails and arcade games, it's a fun place to spend an evening. The cocktails are great and well crafted. They run about $15, every drink I've tried has been enjoyable, but the House Cosmo has become my go-to, the martini list is a favorite of mine. The bartenders are always friendly and welcoming, and it's fun knowing that one of them founded Girls Guide to Greensboro. George's Garage also keeps things interesting with a great lineup of events, including monthly book clubs, craft nights, and weekly trivia (shout-out to Zero Dark Nerdy!). One tip if you're visiting: George's Garage shares the building with Machete and Sage Mule, so there are parking spaces nearby. Just don't park at Deep Roots Market--you'll likely get towed. Whether you're meeting friends for happy hour, planning a date night, or just looking for a pre or post meal drink, George's Garage is definitely worth checking out. I'll definitely be back.

Such a fun spot for great drinks, a chill vibe and some laughs…read more Love the indoor/outdoor feel with their garage door opening and open air seating. Plenty of cozy areas with couches, chairs, tables, bar and high tops. Friendly service and great cocktails from our bartender today. I usually personalize my Manhattan since many bartenders pour a little too much of the sweet vermouth. This one came out perfect. And my wife's spicy margarita also had a nice kick, she loved it. This is a great spot for a pre-dinner or pre-Tanger drink or a fun hangout with friends or family enjoying great drinks in a cozy and chill atmosphere.

We had to walk about three blocks in absolutely torrential rain that rendered my umbrella basically useless. I'd spent 30 minutes on my hair, which was now ruined, my shoes were soaked, and by the time we walked in I was in a TERRIBLE mood. The second we stepped inside, that completely started to change. The staff was so welcoming and empathetic. They immediately brought us towels to dry off and even brought me a blanket! They also gave us some complimentary champagne for our anniversary. Our waitress, Delaney (I hope I'm spelling that right!), was wonderful and even took the time to make me a custom off-menu martini. And then there was the food. We started with the raw oysters, which were half price for happy hour and came with a chili sauce that will now make every other oyster slightly disappointing. I had the bacon cheeseburger, and my partner had the pork belly cacio e pepe, which was fantastic. At the end of the meal, they surprised us with complimentary olive oil cake and more bubbly for our anniversary. What could have easily been a miserable evening ended up being such a great anniversary dinner. The entire staff went above and beyond for us, and the hospitality really stood out. I highly recommend White and Wood whether you're celebrating something or just looking for a great evening out downtown. We'll definitely be back!

Stopped in at Neighbors for hotdogs before a concert recently and cannot wait to get back!…read more Awesome atmosphere and chill spot for some drinks and dogs. Got the Chicago dog and a Seattle dog, add bacon, with a side of fries. The dogs were both delicious and would highly recommend anyone give a try. Never have had a Seattle dog, so was cautious going into it, but boy was I glad I got it. The combo of cream cheese, jalapeños, and onions was so good, and decided to add bacon as well and it took it over the edge! The fries were phenomenal as well so overall a fantastic meal. Already looking forward to our next visit!

What a nice little surprise in Greensboro! I've been wanting to try neighbors for a while now and…read moreso glad I got the chance a few weeks ago. I love that they are in downtown GSO but have their own parking lot - that's a huge plus right off the bat. Their space is small though, expect to stand if they're busy or try to get there early enough to snag a table outside. My friends and I ordered through the outside window which worked perfectly - you ring the bell to order and they text you when your order is ready. Their menu is also small but mighty. So many delicious, unique options to choose from and they have daily specials. Although I didn't get to try a cocktail (next time!) I thoroughly enjoyed my food. I got the bird dog on special that included sun dried tomatoes, balsamic drizzle, and fresh basil. And it's only $4. What a flavor bomb I tell ya. I also ordered the deviled eggs and they are everything I want in a deviled egg - pickled eggs and a creamy center. These may be the best deviled eggs I've ever ordered from anywhere. I also got the buffalo tenders and the chicken was cooked nicely, the buffalo sauce had a nice spice but not overwhelming, and they have the goooood ranch (iykyk). My entire meal was only $18. I did, however, have to take a piece of key lime pie home and omg so good! Do not skip dessert here! Overall this experience has me telling everyone they need to pay a visit and I'm already looking forward to returning and trying more of their menu!

The kitchen is tucked into a small, open area at the front of the restaurant, which adds to the atmosphere. As with my previous visits, the staff was personable and helpful as we decided what to order. I was leaning toward ordering some of my usual favorites when our server mentioned a chicken banh mi special. I decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did! The Vietnamese-style sandwich featured crispy chicken, crunchy pickled carrots and daikon, fresh herbs, and foie gras, all served on a baguette. The combination of flavors and textures was wonderful, with the richness of the foie gras adding an interesting twist to a traditional banh mi. It was absolutely delicious! I'm always happy when I take a chance on something different and it turns out to be a winner. Everyone else at our table enjoyed their meals as well, including the crispy tuna wontons and fried gyoza. The drinks were also a hit! Yokai continues to be one of those places where I know I'll have a good time, enjoy some great food, and feel welcome. I'll definitely be back!

I've purchased several wonderful wines from Zetos in the past. But after the interaction I had with…read morethe owner last night, I will NEVER purchase from this business again. Myself and 2 colleagues were on our way to an evening event at a hotel in downtown Greensboro. I was not familiar with the location of the hotel and took a wrong turn down a dead end street so I pulled into the Zeto parking lot to turn around , confirm the hotel address and reset my GPS. It was closing time for Zeto so the owner was locking up the door at the same time. She sees me pull in and starts gesturing wildly to get out of her parking lot, then (before I can even put my car into drive) she jumps in her car and drives straight at my car while flashing her lights and boxing me in. I had to back up and drive around her car (which I immediately did) while she continued to wave her hands and point at the exit. Completely rude and uncalled for as we'd literally been in the parking lot for less than 2 minutes as I reset the GPS address and had no intention of parking there. I do understand that her parking lot is surrounded by apartments and she may have had a problem with people parking there in the past but this was very bizarre behavior for a business owner that should care about the community and act professionally. The unfortunate part is all 3 of us in the car were regular, frequent customers and enjoyed her store. After her over-the-top rudeness, we all agreed we'd never step foot in Zeto again. She lost 3 customers due to her behavior! We won't support businesses that treat others so poorly. I hope she will, in the future, take a breath and assess the situation before acting so inappropriately toward people.

Such a gem! Curious drinkers, dinner party guests, and wine aficionados can all find something for…read moretheir palate here - across all price ranges. I visited Zeto close to their closing time and was immediately greeted by Sue, welcoming me in to the shop. After sharing I hoped to just browse around and then told her what I planned to have for dinner, I was given a tour of the store while also highlighting a few bottles that would pair well. Sue also shared a really cool story about the bottle of sparkling wine that I ended up purchasing, not only because I was excited to savor it but also because knowing a bit about its history made it that much more alluring. And it paired perfectly with my fried chicken! If you're really into wine, plan to drop by when you have time to explore - and get lost in their curated selection. If you're dropping by to grab a bottle for dinner or a party, ask Sue for a recommendation - she knows her stuff! Though I'm sure everyone there does :) I also grabbed a bag of the truffle chips they had in stock, which were also delish! They also carry this chip brand in an Iberico ham flavor, which I'll have to try next time. I'll follow-up with more on their specialty foods after I've tried a few more...
