    George's Garage in downtown Greensboro is sort of a new bar that's just got kicked off and started up some months ago. If you're looking for a laid-back spot with a fun vibe. The atmosphere is super chill, and they've got arcade games and a couple of pool tables that really bring a nostalgic, easygoing energy to the place. Shoutout to Brandon behind the bar he was awesome. Super friendly and attentive, and he makes a fantastic lemon drop! Whether you're just stopping in for a drink or looking to unwind for a while, this is a great place to kick back with friends. Definitely coming back. Highly Recommend!

    Randomly popped into George's Garage on the tail end of date-night. It was such a cool vibe! Very laid back with a dive-bar feel but the chic modern decor made it feel more upscale. The space is utilized well with a large bar area & lounge seating. There is an additional section full of arcade games, a pool table and air hockey too! Definitely a fun spot all around with something for everyone. The bartenders were fun & engaging in conversation, plus made drink recommendations too! I ordered their French75 and that thing packed a punch for sure! I hope to go back when the garage doors are open.

    Decided to try a new downtown adult night spot with some friends for my birthday. We found George's Garage ...and didn't want to leave. Comfy chairs + couches to sit and relax Huge bar with multiple bartenders making thee best drinks!! Walking up the ramp are pool tables / air hockey / and arcade basketball games. Back to the drinks...very strong and poured just right. We will definitely return!! Thanks George's Garage for a good

    OPENING NIGHT!!! George's Garage was packed and as they should! Settled right by downtown Greensboro this new barcade had plenty of places to sit and mingle, and arcade games scattered throughout as well! The bar was nice and stocked and the place was booming! I got my drink quick the bartenders were very attentive and it's a layered building, the entrance area is an area where you can sit relax grab a drink, and the second area is the arcade area! They had skeeball, pool tables, foosball tables, claw machines and more! Don't expect a game selection like Boxcar but they seem like they have addidonal space for more games/activities! Overall great spot in a nice location! Add this to the bar crawl , Cheers!

    This new bar and arcade opened on January 25, 2025. I didn't have any plans on this Saturday night, so I decided to go check it out, solo. I arrived around 10:30pm. The first thing I noticed was that parking was limited. Inside, it was extremely busy! One side is a long bar with 5-6 bartenders. The other side is where the games are located. I saw people of all ages. I stood in line for a few minutes but I was able to grab a seat at the bar once I saw an opening. I browsed the menu and looked around. They had 5 TVs in that area. Even with sitting at the bar, it took forever to get services. I don't think there were enough bartenders for the crowd. I think there should've been more, especially with it being opening night. Or maybe had bartenders assigned to designated sections of the bar to prevent people from being skipped or just not attended to at all. It seemed like they were focusing on the ends of the bar. To be honest, after 10 minutes of the bartenders serving everyone else but me, I almost left because even the person who came and sat beside me got served before me. If I wasn't by myself, I think I would've been more patient but when you're alone, I have nothing to do but wait. After 20 minutes of waiting, I finally placed an order for a regular margarita. I asked if they could add a flavor and was told no abut could do a spicy margarita. I just got the regular one. After I got it, I closed out. It wasn't even worth keeping a tab open. If it took me 20 minutes to get one drink while sitting at the middle the bar, who knows how long it would've taken to get another one. The margarita was lackluster. I've never had a margarita with club soda in it... I thought that was very odd. The drink tasted weak to me. It was $12. After that, I was annoyed and ready to go. I chugged the margarita down and left the bar area before going to the arcade side. There was a DJ there. I saw a Photo Booth, air hockey, punching machine, and etc. the typically arcade games. Card readers on the game machines. It seemed like most of the games were $1. I ended up losing in a game to a stranger and had to go back to the bar. This time, I stood at the end, hoping that would be quicker and it was. I just needed to get a beer, which I got and closed my tab. Afterwards, I left. The bar situation really dampened my mood. I could understand if I was standing behind people and I just had to wait my turn... but to be sitting right there in the middle of the bar, watching bartenders tend to everyone but me... my annoyance grew with every passing minute. I even made direct contact with 2 of the bartenders and they didn't say a word or acknowledge me. Compared to the other bar/arcade place in Greensboro, it is smaller and less room. It was crowded and limited games. It almost gave club vibes with how many people were standing around as it was packed and the loud music. With the games, i like the idea of being able to get a reloadable card and put money on it vs having to bring cash or make a $1 charge on my card for every game I wanted to play. As a positive, I will say I liked the decor and the music was enjoyable. Other people seemed to be enjoying themselves. I wonder what the experience would be like once the hype has died down or on a day where it's not so crowded. I would consider returning but this experience didn't impress me at all and left me disappointed, actually. I was here for only 40 minutes.

    I was excited to try George's as the owner has a great reputation in the bar business for unique design concept and great drink selection. George's doesn't fall short , the inside has a fun casual vibe and well thought out with different types of seating options . You can choose from an all American PBR to a nice craft cocktail, so something for all tastes. The arcade section is fun and the outside seating is inviting . There was a food truck for added appeal. The service was ok with two bartenders. Glad to have this option join the downtown neighborhood .

Kau and Cugino Forno have been staples for a while, Grapes and Grains right next door opened up last year (2025), and now Incendiary. You could hop from here to Grapes and on to Kau in a matter of a few steps. And there's a sign for a hip new taco joint opening up soon, which almost shares a huge outdoor patio with Incendiary. Love how this area is growing! The brewery itself has an amazing indoor and outdoor space with plenty of seating inside and out. Large garage door style opening makes it seamless between the interior and exterior. Amazing selection of craft brews, wines, spirits and even ciders. The beer selection is huge, something for everyone. And for those that don't drink beer, plenty of other options available. They also allow outside food, which is great now, and even better when the taco joint next door is finished. The outdoor spaces with numerous patios out the front and side offer comfortable seating and great views of the core of the Mill. Also plenty of area for kids to play with a grassy area and a small pond. Kid and dog friendly inside and out. Weekly events and live music add to the fun all week long. This will be a go to for us for years to come. So glad they added something like this to the Revolution Mill area!

In fact, it was a little odd that there was actually not a full house. They allow people to bring in outside food or order from the local restaurants. The prices are reasonable and I really enjoyed the tangie dream and the lemon ginger pear seltzer. The honey blonde was happier than expected, which was not really my jam. The crowd was very much influenced by the fact that it is basically inside of the Revolution Mill housing area. Folks a little bit older and a little more upper-middle class than your typical brewery crowd based on my general impression. Like I said, though, it was a really light crowd, so I wouldn't probably go here to try to mingle or meet people. Also, parking was really confusing. However, the space is beautiful, there's ample seating, and I was really happy with the beer and seltzer. So, overall a solid pic for a place to grab some drinks if you are in the area.

The vibe is warm and laid-back, with cozy couches, plenty of tables for groups or families, and four TVs so you can catch whatever game you're into. Their rotating draft list is always on point, and I love that tap #1 is always a cider, a thoughtful touch for those who like to switch things up. The cooler is packed with even more options in cans and bottles, so there's always something new to discover including CBD and Seltzer options, and if beer's not your thing, they've got cocktails priced right in line with other local spots. Terminal Tap also keeps things lively with Music Bingo on Mondays (shoutout to DJ Ok and Isaac!), Trivia on Thursdays (Let's go Mike and Katherine), and a steady lineup of community events, charity fundraisers, and local meetups. Dogs are welcome on leash, adding to the neighborhood charm. While they don't serve food, you're welcome to bring your own -- I even made ramen with friends during a recent trivia night! Whether you're a craft beer enthusiast or just looking for a friendly, place to unwind, Terminal Tap is absolutely worth checking out. Bonus they dress up the place seasonally too. Cheers!

I got the cranberry blood orange cider and omg it was so so good. I personally don't like beer or wine and prefer cocktails.

It was quiet when we arrived but as it got closer to 7pm every table was full for trivia! We ended up playing and although we didn't do great.... It was a lot of fun. Then a run club came in dressed up do the holidays! It was so fun and festive. There was a food truck outside which was great. Today I went back as part of Yelp and we got drinks from Little Foot matcha. What a perfect place for a coffee pop up!

Drinks were also cold and refreshing. Where it turned sour: our Chef's Special appetizer plate. The mozzarella sticks were hollow. Not just thin, but completely hollow with no cheese, just an outer shell. The "beef" empanadas had no beef inside. Again, mainly hollow with only a little cheese inside. Overcooked and almost impossible to chew. They were also out of some pickled items that were supposed to be on the plate, and they substituted some old strawberries, which definitely did not complement anything on this plate. We were here for a full meal, but we stopped here and did not order our main courses. ***MOST IMPORTANTLY*** Some employees were engaging in activities inside the establishment, which are not conducive to a restaurant in any capacity. A call will be made to management and/or the owner(s). We're highly hopeful this is a one-off experience and these issues will be rectified going forward. We love this place. We've had amazing food and evenings out with friends and family here. We want to be back, and I would love to update this review in the near future.
