    Mac and cheese with French fry's
    Aurora F.

    We went there and the waiter remembered what we ordered without a notepad. I don't know how to feel about that. It's almost 4 stars, maybe like 3.5. The inside was boring and I wish they had more spaced out seating. The food was mid but not that much flavor. We got the kids meal and it didn't come with the free ice cream scoop or side even after we asked for it.

    There is limited parking in front of the restaurant. When I arrived all of the spots were filled. I found a parking area in the rear of the business. All of the open spots in the lot had signs that said they were reserved for other businesses in the area. I called the restaurant and they advised me that it was ok to park in those parking spaces. Several tables were inside of the business and a bar. When I walked in the business, two employees were standing at the bar talking & no one spoke to me. After I seated myself & scanned the menu someone came over & finally greeted me. The employees that we interacted with were not personable and barely came over to check on us. They came over when we first arrived & prior to us leaving to check out. The restaurant wasn't overly busy & there were several employees working & coming over to the tables. I got the dry rub wings and fries. While there was seasoning on the wings, they both needed salt. The wings and the fries were served hot. The vegetables served with my wings were fresh & the ranch was good. The fries were ok. Based upon our dining experience I would not return.

    We were easily able to get a table for 7 on a Sunday evening for dinner. Their CO2 was down so they didn't have any beers available on tap, but they had a good selection of cans. I had the strawberry kiwi burst sour which was tasty, and surprisingly not way overpriced for a can of beer. We had the friend pickles to start which were great! I had the fried green tomato sandwich that was just ok - I think I'd opt for something else next time. Prices on food were also really reasonable! We had my son with us, and appreciated that they had a kids menu with pb&j and it came with vanilla ice cream.

    Amazing food, superb service, and the ambiance is relatively nice. I got Brussels sprouts for the first time from them today and they were delectable! Just the right amount of salt. Their fish and chips are always good, definitely a must-have for people who go for the first time. My boyfriend got a chicken Gouda wrap that's also consistently good.

    Birria tacos

    After attending a local event at the Cary Theater my friend suggested we grab a late bite at Crosstown. They have a nice spacious patio area for dining so we decided to try eating outdoors. Service was prompt upon arrival. Our waiter suggested the birria tacos. He shared that the pub prides itself on " authentic flavorful tacos". My friend had grilled wings, pimento cheese balls and a salad. I had the fried green tomatoes, birria tacos by recommendation and a whiskey sour. Service was very slow outside. Our waiter had our food served to us but never came back to check on us until it was time to check out. I understand it's late night and staffing is limited. The food was very good with the exception of the fried green tomatoes. The tomatoes were under ripe and too hard to serve for this recipe. The pimento cheese balls were excellent. Two of my favorite North Carolina southern classics. The convenience of late night hours until 2am, and location is unmatched for this area and the food was good. I would definitely return.

    Pimento Cheese Balls
    MK W.

    We went on a Wednesday night and sat inside at a high top. The initial bartender didn't seem like she really wanted to wait on us but the one who checked us out was extremely nice. It was very dark inside and loud even though not super crowded. Sitting outside would have probably been the better option. The food was ok but nothing that would draw me back. The pimento cheese fritters were still cold inside. The house chips had no seasoning or flavor. And ranch is an additional .50.

    Grilled Reuben Sandwich
    Kristine U.

    My boyfriend and I were in the area and gave this place a try based on the great Yelp reviews. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip to start and it was really good. For our entrees, I ordered the chicken Gouda wrap with fries and my boyfriend had the Reuben with fries. I also had a beer. I was surprised that they didn't have a better draft beer selection. I went with the Pernicious. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. I am definitely going to return to try the wings and fish and chips.

    Wanted to like this place, been here multiple times but for some reason the food and drinks have gone downhill since the've moved locations. The pub wings were ok but the Philly Cheesesteak needs to be removed from the menu if that's what they are sending out.

    Dining area

    Crosstown pub is located in downtown Cary. Outdoor patio area is always poppin during the weekend and weekends. Bar area is nice. Tends to be busy Friday and Saturday nights and we'll as Sundays durning football season. Today we stopped for a little raining day lunch. We both wanted the fish and chips to eat which are always excellent. This time I opted for the fisherman's catch which is a special item this month (probably for lent) It came with their fried fish , calamari and shrimp. The fish was cooked to perfection as always. The calamari and shrimp were unfortunately over cooked. That tends to happen with specials so not mad at all. Slaw was crisp and sweet. I had the French onion soup as well. Soooooo good. Nice and salty and savory beef and onion flavor. Will definitely get the soup again. Next time I think I'm gonna stick with the large order of fish and chips. Lol

    A gem that downtown Cary has to offer. I finally visited the new location, which is right next door to the previous location. The newer location now has a larger patio. I'm usually in the moment and enjoying the company I'm in that I forget to capture pictures. Great spot for late-night "real quality" food. I have never been disappointed. The staff here are always happy to serve customers and are pleasant. There are drinks special daily, and they aren't stingy or excessively expensive. The prices are reasonable, and they have not tacked on an automatic gratuity of 18% ever! My party is usually small. Great service, food, and drinks here. It's never a disappointment.

    Fish and chips
    Jody W.

    One of the few restaurants open after midnight. We had the spinach dip with pita triangles. It was not the spinach dip I am used to, it was ground so fine it didn't look like it and I couldn't taste the cheese, however it wasn't bad. We also had the hot chicken wings they were spicy and delicious. I had fish and chips, very good. My husband had a hamburger with bacon and barbecue sauce that he enjoyed. Limited seating, the staff asked a couple sitting at four person table if they wouldn't mind moving to a two person table so our party of four could be seated, the kind couples moved over for us. My husband said his draft beer was really good.

    Dog friendly patio! Great service, decently clean bathroom, good pub menu. The black and bleu salad was great, very fresh ingredients. It would have been nice with a nut added (candied pecan or almond). The fish and chips were great. The hummus cam with a lot of vegetables. We had a great time at crosstown, definitely visit!

    Chimichurri steak with brussel sprouts
    Jeff F.

    I've never had a bad meal at Crosstown, and they usually have pretty good drink specials during the week. The food is always fresh and the prices are reasonable. My only issue with the place is the bar is tiny and most times when I go there the seats are all taken. They also have a decent size outdoor patio area. Trying to find parking here is a nightmare, and it's just getting worse as downtown Cary expands but doesn't build a parking garage.

    I stopped by Doherty's for their St. Patrick's Day event, which has become a tradition because…read morehonestly what else are you going to do on St patty's day. They blocked off part of the parking lot, had live music going, and the whole place had that fun, lively energy you want on a holiday like this. Because of the crowd, the menu was trimmed down to the more popular items, but it still had plenty of good options. I ended up getting their Irish eggrolls, they're hand‑rolled and stuffed with house‑cured corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese, then sliced and served with their Thousand Island dressing. Basically, it's all the flavors of a Reuben wrapped up in a crispy shell, simple, rich, and exactly the kind of thing that works well at an event like this because its quick and its finger food you can eat while watching the band,. Overall, the atmosphere was great, parking is such a hassle though during these events on the weekend because H-Mart nearby is already so packed. You can park on the other side of the building if you don't mind a brief walk though.

    Feb 2026 I was craving a burger and didn't have any ideas…read morewhere to go....then thought this local pub might be good and hopefully not too busy between parking and awaiting food as I was famished! I was greeted, then seated. I was provided a menu and specials...Prime Rib! After my hectic day, yes I will have that! I mentioned gluten free to my server before making decision. Plus seeing the loaded potato had me a bit worried as I cannot ear pork. I opted for salad once server checked to see if Caesar salad dressing is gf sans croutons. I requested salad with dressing on the side and to bring promptly before my dinner. Salad arrived by and server dressed and it was glistening.... I requested one with dressing on the side...server brought maybe I had two bites and dinner arrived! Salad can wait...prime rib cannot, even though I start with tasting potato. Prime rib was requested mid rare and it delivered. Potato was fine. I did not see the au jus nor horseradish sauce on the side. I did ask server while I was ready to pack it up and he said there was some confusion if there was/was not no gluten so not provided. Noteworthy as the salad a manager stopped by about the dressing and mentioned one type of salad dressing is now gf and one vegan. Good to have options. Disappointed to learn the fries are coated with flour then fried as an option with burger skip the bun...what about baked chips or air fry for those with food sensitivities as an alternative? Just a thought for management to consider please. I saved room for dessert and the mousse did not disappoint and was compted .... thank you! Fantastic! As I looked around there was a steady crowd entering along with regular patrons. Overall 4.5 stars for this visit. On a side note, this is a family friendly restauran/pub. Some servers look disheveled between sloppy hair and untidy uniform. For staff with long hair should be pulled back tight and away from food will prevent hair on the food! Uniform is simple black top and pants....should be clean and neat. A few servers looked like they rolled out of bed...if they are feeling ill, please stay home. Servers should make diners and patrons have a positive and pleasant experience and my server was definitely on point with emphasis on customer service and satisfaction....keep it up! Lastly, females please wear a bra or sports bra or a proper garment under uniform as it is family friendly restaurant, thank you!

    Fortnight Brewing is exactly the kind of brewery that turns a random Monday into the highlight of…read moreyour week. Came for trivia night (7-9pm on Mondays) and ended up staying way longer than planned because the vibe was just that good. As a dog-friendly brewery, there were plenty of furry distractions, but Stella absolutely stole the show. I don't think I made eye contact with half my team because I was too busy petting her between trivia rounds. The beer flight was solid across the board. Dream Patch was bright and easy-drinking, S-Wheat Caroline stayed crisp and refreshing, Hopstacle Course delivered the hop-forward punch I wanted, and the Carolina Amber on cask was smooth, rich, and dangerously crushable. But the real MVP of the night? The Summer Breeze THC Slushie. Somehow refreshing, nostalgic, and wildly fun all at once. Fortnight nails the formula: great beer, welcoming crowd, dogs, trivia chaos, and creative drinks that keep things interesting. Cary is lucky to have this spot.

    Stopped by here recently and had an OK time…read more First, for parking, there was a primary lot as well as overflow parking. I went right after it opened so it was pretty empty during my visit, but there's a ton of seating (both indoor and outdoor!) and I can imagine it gets pretty busy at peak hours. I grabbed a 10 oz pour of the flagship IPA and hung out for a few minutes. Honestly, the beer was not my favorite (and didn't taste much like an IPA to me at least...) but I guess that's personal opinion :) The bartender was nice and the vibes were solid inside. Overall, there are a bunch of breweries in the Triangle, so I'm not sure I'd come back to this one as my first choice, but if a friend wanted to meet me here I wouldn't complain :)
