Bree was the best bartender at the nineteenth hole bar, she was giving us tips on the international beer while serving us outside. Totally recommend Raleigh Beer Garden while on Gleenwood. They have so many things to do for all ages. read more

Halloween fun awaits at the pop up at Raleigh Beer Garden in downtown Raleigh! So many fun photo ops throughout the bar plus out back at Hop Shots they have a cute, little pumpkin patch. Because I was there for an event, I did not get to try a variety of food but the pizza that was offered on the buffet was ok. The bar had a nice crowd and I thought the staff handled it well. We tried some speciality cocktails from their fall menu as well as a local beer. If you love Halloween fun with your cocktails or beer, I would check out this pop up from now until October 31st! read more

Awesome atmosphere. 3 floors and a huge outside area with 18 holes of mini golf. The baked Pretzel with honey butter is a must try. Cali-Squeeze beer is my favorite and was on tap. Brie was our bartender - great personality. Ask her about the cheese factory that blew it... Will def be back when we visit again. read more

My friends and I went here for Hop Shots Mini Golf at the back of the property but we ate beforehand and the food was so good. I was really impressed. We ordered a salad, buffalo chicken and pesto pizzas, two burgers, wings, nachos, corn dogs, and a quesadilla. Even the reheated leftovers were good. Service was quick. We didn't order any beer but we had cocktails that were all delicious and strong. Trivia (Tuesday) upstairs was loud and spilled to the downstairs area. I know it's a bar but it was hard to each other talk. Parking isn't great around there but there are some lots around the corner. Otherwise, I would return. read more

Went during the beginning of their Halloween constellation. They did an amazing job with the decor. We really enjoyed the pizza. The fall drinks were amazing, especially the Smörs Espresso Martini. They also have a drink that comes with a take-home glass. Highly recommended experience. read more

This was probably my 5th time at the Beer Garden on Glenwood. I love all of the outside seating and putt-putt in the back. I was looking to share a steak with my dog and know how dog friendly it is here. I ordered the steak medium but it really came out medium rare, I ate the outer edges and my dog had a feast! Probably won't be my go to spot for steak but the wings and shrimp are super solid. Service was a little slow but I wasn't in a rush so it was okay. read more

I've walked past this place countless times and have never even considered it until this day when my coworkers wanted to meet up and grab a bite. I'm not a huge beer drinker but was still impressed at the plethora of options (International beer on the 2nd floor, Domestic Beer on the first floor, and a separate liquor bar on the first floor as well). So if you are looking for a LOT OF BEER OPTIONS, this is a good place to start/try. I tried a flight of ciders because that's as close to beer as I would typically get (I've attempted to try so many with beer fest but I just can't get into it) and I couldn't choose what I wanted so I had the wonderful bartender select them for me. She provided amazing, friendly service because as indecisive as I can be, she was very patient. For a meal, I order the Jalapeño burger and it was delicious. The jalapeño is basically the sauce that gives the kick you're looking for, not actual jalapeños, and it comes with plenty of fries. Again, I left not a single crumb lol This place is really cool inside and looks like something out of a fairytale with the trees growing through the restaurant. I love plants and nature so for me it was everything. I'd love to see it at night and check out how it's lit up, certain it looks beautiful! read more

Our bartender Bri did an AMAZING job at helping us navigate the endless beers and picked beers my boyfriend and I loved. Definitely would come back again for her service! read more

My wife and I stopped in here after visiting the farmer's market. We had the breakfast burgers which were SO good, but what really made our experience was how they took care of our pug, Honey. They brought her ice water and accommodated us when we wanted to move into the shade. Clara was the hostess and she was great and our server, Will was wonderful, kind, and thoughtful too. We will definitely be back! read more

Waitress was good. They were out of what I wanted and discontinued my second choice but it was still on the menu. The Brat I ordered was mediocre as were the fries. read more

First off, the hostess seemed annoyed by us we wanting to dine there. "All we have is these 2 tables" which were essentially in the waiting area outside the restaurant making it easier for our waitress to forget about and/or ignore us, even though the restaurant was mostly empty. Then we tried to order and of the only 2 food items we chose this restaurant for, "Oh we don't have those." OK, then we'll get the nachos. Drinks took an overly long wait to finally arrive. Then our food arrived except for the appetizer (nachos) which finally arrived AFTER we'd finished eating. Then as we asked for the check, our second round of drinks finally arrived, which we refused since we were done and ready to leave having ordered them before the food even arrived. WTF? read more

Fantastic beer and the Brie was even better ;) Definitely recommend some fries and the Lime Pilsner! read more

Really neat place with a lot of seating- indoor/outdoor seating with a TON of beers and ciders on tap. Each floor will have a different set of options so you have to walk up and down it to find the one you're looking for. Triple Jam is the best for me. I was a little surprised to find that one glass of Triple Jam was about $8- not great pricing in my opinion. The food is also pretty pricey but tasty. They ended up being out of multiple food items (one being all pizza) on a Saturday so not sure why but was disappointed. The cheesy fries with pork belly were AMAZING but still like $12 Parking is a huge hassle anywhere on Glenwood- we ubered to avoid the frustration, especially on a weekend They need to fix the outlet in the women's bathroom- water and electricity had me worried to ever use the hand dryer. Can't be safe. Overall a good visit occasionally but a pricey one for some beers but amazing options. read more

Easily the best place we found in the area! Chill vibes, lots of people but still chill. Tons of beers and it's oddly relaxing despite the crowds (I say this as a veteran with ptsd soooo). The price point is honestly good. We must've sat and drank for 5hrs, and had about I don't know 10-15 beers between 2 of us (not full pints). I think we spent maybe $125? (And $45 was tip.) I preferred the lower beer bar. It's local beers, whereas upstairs is domestic/import. We spent more time downstairs. We shouldn't have left! We did get the pork belly poutine--amazing!!! Ben and Matt, you're awesome! read more

We love this place and usually sit at the bar on the 2nd floor. The tall male bartender was awful. Totally ignoring me and just talking to some young couple the entire time. Even the couple sitting next me joked that they must be invisible too because he was barely serving them also. I finally waved down the female bartender and thank god because she was wonderful. Her name was Riley and she was phenomenal. She gave great suggestions and was super attentive. We usually have good service so we were pretty shocked how bad the tall male bartender treated us but Riley saved the day. Riley deserves a raise. She is such an asset to the Biergarten. read more

If you love wings, the dry rub are the best I have ever had!!!! (The fries are very salty...so beware if you aren't a salt lover) I give this place a 5 star for the atmosphere, plethora of beer options, and a place to really chill with whoever you are with. The vines, trees and lushness that surrounds and is entwined throughout makes this place extra unique. read more

We came for the drag brunch event, excited for a fun show and good food--but unfortunately, the experience was disappointing overall. The service and food were the biggest letdowns. Our original server was kind and attentive, and the drinks we did get were delicious. But right before the show started, she told us she had to go bartend downstairs and closed out our tab, saying another server would take over. No one ever did. We waited 45+ minutes for a pretzel and cheese fries, and I had to go downstairs just to get a status update on our food. When it finally arrived, the fries were not made according to the menu description--they were missing the pork belly and ranch, and were topped with thick, clumpy cheese sauce. I brought them to the bar, and the bartender said she'd have them fixed. What came back was cold pork belly bites on top, a little more of the same clumpy cheese, and still no ranch. No one checked on us for the rest of the brunch event, and we would've gladly ordered another round--but we were never given the opportunity. The drag performers themselves were fantastic--talented, vibrant, and so much fun to watch. The only downside was the layout, which split the audience into two disconnected sections. I'd love to see this event held in the courtyard next time so the queens can interact more easily with the whole crowd. read more

I recently coordinated a work event here and we truly had a great time. Food It was standard bar food that my team members were able to enjoy. My one request would be to add vegan options to the menu. There was one, but would love more options. Service Amy and her team were AMAZING! They were on it. No slow down in the food levels and was available if we had any questions. Ambiance It was very relaxed with a mini golf course in the back. The best part was trivia. Our team did not know it would've been trivia night that night. However, we were excited to participate and ended up winning. Overall, if I'm ever back in Raleigh, I will be stopping here. read more

How can you not get good vibes walking into a three story building with 400+ tap beers from local micro brews to world wide brewers! Brought some friends from out of Town who were impressed. We hit the local NC beer den on first floor. The bar tender was very helpful matching our preferred styles/taste with our three different desires. Look at my picture of only one wall of taps. We retired to back of facility where they have lots of seating, a couple more small bars, several cornhole boards, a miniture golf coarse, several television monitors. We had several beers and played a few matches of cornhole and called it an afternoon. We were lucky to be there in afternoon as there was no problem finding parking. read more

I was out and about hanging with hubby and his brother, one of our stops was Raleigh Beer Garden. We walked around back to check out their outdoor patio. It was a bit hot so we decided to sit inside. We looked over their extensive beer menu and I ordered a flight, my go-to. -Guava Guapo - really good IPA, slight guava flavor, on the tart/tangy side. -Caprese Pizza - Italian Pilsner. Kind of citrusy, light. -Boat Soda - key lime cream ale, my favorite of the bunch. Smooth, refreshing, great summer beer. -Southern Basil - farmhouse ale. My least favorite of the bunch. It was too bitter for my taste. I tried an amber that Hubby ordered, it was smooth, drinkable and very tasty. I would definitely return to Raleigh Beer Garden. The number of beer options was impressive, lots of different styles to choose from. read more

I played miniature golf at RBG's new "Hot Shots" 18 hole miniature golf course out back last week. I had two buddies in town for a river rafting trip up in WV. We had a great time and had the RBG's delicious tavern burgers. I highly recommend this place. If you can't find a beer you like at the RBG, perhaps you just don't like beer. Try one of the ciders! read more

Food and service were both okay. The host was great and very accommodating when we changed our minds and decided to sit outside. Our server seemed to not know much about the menu. Can't blame her on not knowing all of the beers though as there are over 300 taps. We ordered dry rub wings to share. They came out looking alright but we discovered that they were burnt as we flipped each one over. As if the staff had intentionally tried to hide the burnt sides. I like a little char but this was about 75% burned. Too hungry to complain so we ate them anyway and we were able to get the flavor of the dry rub through which was pretty good. I'm sure if I went again I would have a different, hopefully better, experience. read more

Food was fabulous, the beer selection would satisfy anyone, and service was great! There really is no downside to here, and I cannot wait to come back. I especially loved seeing the bar area with ALL the taps! And they even had a window into their keg room! Just amazing! read more

I'm feeling heated right now but I'll save it to the end. The end bumped me from 3.8 to a 8.5. Stick with me. We arrived shortly after opening. I checked in with the hostess, letting her know we had our dog in tow and she couldn't have been more gracious. She let us pick our table (really well covered space and very clean) and said she'd be right back with a bowl of water for the pup. She was really charming. 5 stars. Our server was a bit less experienced and probably 3 stars. The person expediting the orders was definitely 5 stars but apparently no one cares to consider this when rating. I'll explain these stars but don't worry. They'll come back to the story later. We ordered two burgers: the bacon & bleu burger and the jalapeno cheddar "smash" burger. My husband *loved* his burger. My smash burger was, indeed, a "smash burger". The code here is the ". It was a "smash-like" burger. It definitely had a char grill flavor but lacked the crispy, fatty flavor I associate with a smash burger. I asked for the jalapeno mayo on the side 'cause you never know how spicy those spicy's can get. It was super mild. It could have benefitted with some acidity like pickles or mustard. So my burger was 3 stars & hubs was 4 stars. Overall 3.5 Ketchup wasn't on the table so we asked for it because...fries. :) Their fries are skinny with salt & pepper. I liked 'em but they did need ketchup, lol. Here's where we start using some math. Right now, we have = 5+3+3.5+=3.8 Then where I tip the scales. The table next to us had two dogs. Each dog had bowls of water provided by the hostess. But as the expeditor brought out a platter full of food for 6 adults and 2 kids, one of the dogs went for the water. Tripped the food expeditor, who kept kept it all pretty much under control except for a one spilled plate. She couldn't have been more apologetic even though it wasn't her fault. She comped an empty beer plus food items, kept apologizing and it made me kinda' angry none of them told her "it's okay, it wasn't your fault". We're nearly into the Olympics so I'm keeping this competitive. Prior, we were sitting at an overall score of 3.8. That woman's heroics was a solid 5 stars. Now we're at an 8.5. But that doesn't exist here on Yelp. So now I'm adjusting my 3.8 rating to a 5 rating. Overall, when I read reviews, most of the lowest rated are related to service. We couldn't have had better service. My only (small, singular) gripe is: they have a pet menu but it didn't find it's way to our table. The other is: for a 300+ taps bar, there was no beer menu. My husband asked for a pilsner and I guess we got one but we're not sure, lol. Don't let the mediocre score scare you off. read more

Raleigh Beer Garden is a lively multi-level spot with a massive beer selection and a fun, energetic atmosphere that's great for groups and anyone who wants a true bar vibe. The outdoor seating is one of the best parts -- the patio and garden area give you a nice break from the hustle inside and it's a great place to hang out when the weather is good. On busy nights it does get loud and crowded, and service can slow down, which is pretty normal for a place this popular. The main downside is the bathrooms -- they aren't always the cleanest during peak hours and could definitely be better. Overall, it's a solid place to grab drinks with friends, especially if you can snag a table outside. read more

Before my flight on Thursday, April 23, 2026.....I ate at their place in Terminal 1 at RDU. Ordered a beer and a Bacon Cheeseburger. I'll give you the fact that the burger was more than enough, it was perhaps one of my top 5 worst burgers that I have ever eaten! Dried out, no sheen, very little taste! I'm guessing this is all microwaved in the back? Certainly, next time I'm in Terminal 1 and need to eat, I'll go across the aisle to Charburger! read more

Rude. Says open at 1030 on Google Maps. I was rudely told they weren't open till 11am...this after a 30 minute walk in the rain w 2 dogs. Read the room people. I could have easily been accommodated in this weather but no. Update your hours! Very unprofessional. read more

OMG! The beer-battered pretzels here are AMAZING. Like, seriously, 10/10. If you come here and don't try them, what are you even doing? PLEASE TRY THEM. The ambiance is super chill and fun. They've got a little golf setup in the back, bean bag toss, and they're definitely into their greenery vibe with that green turf aesthetic. Feels cozy. Bonus points for the outdoor heating. Everything about this place feels homey. The people here are super nice, and the whole vibe just makes you want to stay for hours. I loved it and would 100% come back. Great food, great atmosphere, great people. What more do you need? TLDR: get the beer battered pretzel. read more

Went here b/c what else do you do when you're in a new area? Of course you look for places to drink and eat! The one super cool thing about this place is how friendly they are to dogs. There were no less than 4 dogs at a time outside the whole time we were there (including our dog). They also have a ton of taps. That's about where the good stuff ends. From here the food was very basic. For an area that can be very competitive in the food industry, they really need to beef up the quality. The food felt/tasted microwaved and lackluster. The beer - while they did have a large selection, you can truly taste lines needed to be sanitized. Overall, it's ok. Hopefully they clean up some of the small things because the potential of this place is off the charts. Food Taste: 2 Overall Service: 4 Value of food to cost: 2 Facility: 3 Ambiance: This place reminds me of a college bar that's just REALLY big. Repeat customer: no Dog Friendly: yes read more

What's better on a beautiful day than a cold beer and some fried apps? Raleigh Beer Garden has the best selections of both. I loved the amount of ciders and sours that were available and was pleased with each one of my options. I was even able to sample a few before making my decisions. The bartenders were patient and kind. Now the food... Goodness gracious was it good!!!! - The Buffalo shrimp were a great size and had an amazing tangy Buffalo sauce. The fries were seasoned with salt and pepper and so yummy. - Mac n cheese bites..... OMFG y'all. So dang good. Accompanied with two sauces for dipping, this app was perfect. The atmosphere was on point. The music was fun throwbacks and that made my mom extra happy. read more

So many options! Humongous place, 2 floors! The bartender at the international tap bar was super cool and knew his stuff. I enjoyed Buffalo wings and a pretzel. I tried the margarita and the Paloma from their cocktail bar, didn't care too much for them but it's preference. I'm not a fan of sour mix or grapefruit, so that one fell on me not the nice bartender girl. My husband went with a flight of 6 different international beers. Would be back again to try new stuff. We went during the week in the early afternoon so we were able to explore it with no issues of crowds. read more

We came to Raleigh to visit friends and they recommended this place. We were told no waiting for bar seating but 30 to 45 minutes for table. We tried to do bar seating but it was a challenge because some of the beers are on the first floor and others on the second, but they have a huge selection. We waited for table service and the server was super sweet but said they were shorthanded. We ordered a couple of different brews. I got a chocolate and peanut butter stout that was excellent with a dark and creamy flavor. We also got some pretzels that were very good. It was noisy and crowded but I thought worth the five stars read more
