Loving this new downtown Cary park but for the love of hydration where is the water? There are a…read morefew small bowls in the park and water fountains are located outside of the Barkyard. Owners either have to bring water to refill the bowls or leave the gate. During the summer, there are sprinklers at the far end of the park. Not all dogs like these, but you can use them to refill water bowls. The other dog parks in Cary (like Jack Smith) have auto-refill bowls. Other than the water situation we really like this park. It is mainly turf with sidewalks, tunnels, and sitting areas. It is convenient having bathrooms, a bar, and a beautiful park nearby. Plus it is in downtown Cary so it is surrounded by numerous businesses, restaurants, and bars. Parking can be tricky. I usually opt for free street parking, however, there are nearby free lots as well including a parking garage by the library. Similar to the other dog parks in Cary, a dog park pass is needed. Currently they use a QR code that can be used at each of the dog parks.

To top it all off, there are BOOKS!! Lots and lots of beautiful books to buy. I came once with a friend for coffee and enjoyed delicious iced lavender oat milk latte and locally made blueberry scone from The Great Harvest. My second time was at night with my writing friends for cocktails and manuscript critiques. We each ordered something different and all loved them. The place was hopping with a fun book club where people bought a book and bedazzled the cover. What a fun idea! I hope they have it again. We also got to meet the owners, Ken and Jen(?), who host a monthly pop-up with local authors and makers, and they even made a generous donation to my friend's son's school for a silent auction. It's my kind of place in every way, and I'm thrilled it's so close to home!

It's definitely popular, so I recommend making reservations when you can. I've gone once with a girlfriend before a movie and once with my husband when we were looking for an early dinner. We actually didn't have a reservation that second time, but the staff was incredibly kind and worked with us to accommodate the window we had. This place is truly an experience. It's a little on the pricier side, but I have never once felt unwelcome. The staff is warm, knowledgeable, and happy to help guide you through the menu. Every dish I've tried has been delicious, but the duck egg rolls, dumplings, and sesame noodles especially live rent-free in my head. I usually stick with a glass of wine from their extensive list, but I recently tried the green tequila cocktail and it was amazing. My husband always finds a fresh, delicious mocktail option, which we appreciate. Accessibility is something I consider when choosing places to go, and Brewery Bhavana is accessible for wheelchair users, including the restrooms. Being able to enjoy the full dining experience comfortably makes a big difference. I wouldn't necessarily go here expecting traditional Chinese cuisine, but I would absolutely recommend it for a unique, thoughtful, and delicious dining experience. It has become a special treat for us when we're in Fenton, and I'm always excited to go back.

This place did NOT disappoint!!! It was an impromptu lunch but so glad we ended up here. We went…read moreto the Fenton location in Cary and have on our list to try the Raleigh location as well. For starters, our waiter(if I'm not mistaken was also the bartender) was very attentive and gave excellent recommendations since it was our first visit. I ordered the rose water lemonade and my son ordered the strawberry lychee. Both were delicious so much so I asked could the two be combined without the carbonation that the lychee drink had. It was a hit!!!! For appetizers we ordered the Duck Egg rolls and asked the waiter to surprise us with the second appetizer. He chose the Pork Bao. The egg rolls were our favorite out of the two but both were great. For our entrees, my son ordered the General Tso Chicken. I couldn't decide between two dishes so I asked the waiter once again to surprise me. I ended up the whole fish(black bass) entree which was a phenomenal choice. The flavors were like a party in your mouth. It was seasoned to perfection and the sauce: OMG!!!!! Both entrees came with a bowl of fluffy rice. For dessert we got the mooncakes. They were ok. The ambience was nice and welcoming. I don't drink but was informed that it was a place people go to take part in their amazing drink selections. That it is also a great place to read a book which they have plenty to choose from if you forgot your own and a good meet up or date spot. If you are looking for new place to try this place will be a great choice!!!! Let me know what you think!!!

I'm going to be completely honest...we stopped here because we were out thrifting in Cary (not our…read morenormal neighborhood) and saw the sign for Vicious Fishes brewery. That made us laugh and we were thirsty so we decided to take a break from shopping. We parked at VF parking lot and discovered that their doors were locked even though the hours on the door said they should have been open. We noticed South Line Brewing right beside it and saw people so we walked across the parking lot. We were immediately greeted by some friendly patrons (looked like they were having an event) and went inside. The bartender asked us what we would like to sample and we quickly found a beer to our liking. We inquired about the brewery next door and she informed us that they were closed for good. (Not this brewery's fault, but how rude that there was no posting on VF regarding this!) We really enjoyed our time here. We had a couple of beers, got a burger from the food truck, and just relaxed and people watched. I got the Notorious Bean Coffee Cream Ale and it was delicious. I had two and they went down very easily LOL. The vibe was excellent. LOTS of different seating...kinda felt like hanging out in your best friends garage (only in the best way possible!) Even sitting inside felt like sitting outside and enjoying a nice summer afternoon. If I'm ever back in the area, I will definitely stop by again!

After their hour-long set, the crowd dissipated into three or four self-selected groups and picks for as long as they want. There is no real food, and many had brought chips and such to go along with the beer. Beer was ok, nothing to write home about, but I'm not a craft beer connoisseur, by any means. Any hazy IPA will do for me if it's cold. Folks were very friendly about offering a stool at their table after I had stood for a few songs. The jam sessions were fun. There are definitely "home town favorites", but the crowd was warm and welcoming for a first time visitor, and I got my performing fix for the month. Not sure if it's worth the drive, but it's fun if you wanna go. Pack a lunch, tho!

In the 30 minutes we were seated, we counted at least 6 cockroaches walking around our area, close enough that I had to put my feet up on my chair to avoid them. My father-in-law ended up killing one that got too close to our table. This isn't a one off a big got in situation. Seeing that many roaches in such a short window points to a real infestation, not bad luck. It's especially concerning for a place serving food and drinks. We didn't feel comfortable finishing our order and won't be back until we hear this has been addressed. Really disappointing, because the drinks themselves are excellent. But no cocktail is worth enjoying with roaches at your feet.
