Turkey sandwich had a better name than I can remember now, but it was good.
Mike G.

Rather surprised by the quality of food in their airport restaurant. Turkey sandwich with bacon, lettuce, cheese, slaw and other stuff was quite good. Waitress recommended the fries over the Mac and cheese, and she was right. My brother was happy with his sliders, but the side of Brussel sprouts weren't the best ever. Mango tea, however, was delicious.

Typical hotel bar with overpriced drinks but the vibe was good and the people were friendly.

Charcuterie board
Josh M.

As far as airport food goes, Raleigh Taproom was solid! Waitresses were friendly, attentive, and the food was delivered at the brisk pace one wants when eating at the airport. It may seem like an odd combo to others, but when I saw wings + charcuterie board on the menu, I promptly sat down and ordered a healthy pour of white wine. The charcuterie & cheese board was nothing to write home about, but the simple selections were what I wanted (even found myself scooping up some of the decorative salad greens). The wings were average, but the abundance of crumbled blue cheese from the board unexpectedly up-leveled my choice. Will definitely eat here again when I pass through!

Coffee Hidden Pipe
Jillian S.

Convenient place to sip on a local brew while waiting for our flight. Depending on the time, it can be busy and service is slow. The bartender was friendly and efficient, but definitely overworked. During busy times, they should staff two employees to work the bar area. That way the counter can be cleared and cleaned more frequently. Only order food if you have time to spare. The food is good, but pricy and takes a while to receive. I recommend the chicken tenders with fries and the coffee hidden pipe. This taproom is not a place to stop if you are short on time before your flight leaves. It is also challenging to hear announcements when dining in this establishment.

Portobello sliders and sidewinder fries
Sheena G.

Friendly and prompt service. Interesting menu items, despite still being a covid-limited menu. I had the portobello sliders. They had great flavor and the buns were toasted perfectly, but there was about one bite's worth of actual portobello in each slider. The sidewinder fries were like potato wedges and I really liked them. I didn't have a drink, but they do have a full bar, lots of beers on tap and wine.

This is actually in the Raleigh-Durham airport. If you are looking to try some local brews while on a layover or waiting for departure, then it's good. I basically ordered their take on poutine which was fried potatoes, gravy, steak, and a goat cheese. The steak was cooked and then sliced. Either it was horrible cut of steak or they made a poor choice when slicing because it was really tough! I'd come here again, but maybe try a different appetizer to go with my beer! Also, I overheard many people complaining about their wait (over an hour in some cases) and some were about to miss a flight while waiting for their food! So you may want to make sure you have plenty of time when coming here or that's it isn't too busy.

Update to below review:…read more I've been here 5 times now and have a better feel for things. They have games here too...things like Uno, trivia, battleship, trivia, jenga, etc. It's kid friendly during daytime hours and the occasional food truck is really great! It was rockin' last Friday night--musical Bingo followed by Kareoke w a food truck and great 80s 90s music playing w sports on the TV's. Everyone I meet is a parent or part of a family, so extremely friendly, and my sis's dog got to meet another dog even so it was just really amazing to see a neighborhood embrace this bisiness so quickly--obviously it was the missing piece. Even more of a reason for 5 stars! __________________ Cute new neighborhood bar. Dog water bowls inside and out, 3 big screens w sound wired to all inside, pool table, sofas, hightops bar seating....20+ beers on tap and a liquor menu focused on bourbons and some whiskeys and scotch--but they have a little of everything. Service was polite and speedy. Ambiance / atmosphere / vibe was clean w a little industrial vibe w the cool ceiling. Foid trucks rotate in regularly--this place is great and dog-friendly. I can't wait to see it grow as this is the 1st written review and I'm just visiting my sis who lives in the neighborhoid (I live in Richmond VA). 5 stars.

This isn't my first time visiting this place, and each time my impressions only get better. The…read moreatmosphere is always lively and friendly, and the variety of board games provide a pleasant way to spend time in company. During the day, it's comfortable for families, and evening events transform the space into a real entertainment center. Musical activities, karaoke, and the arrival of various food trucks add variety and make each visit special. People around are easy to talk to, and you can feel that the locals sincerely support this establishment. It's very nice to see how it's becoming part of the community. I'll be happy to come back again -- five stars without hesitation!

It's been a while since I had Lonerider's beer and at one point it slipped my mind to write a…read morereview about it but then I realized there was still a review I haven't posted yet for the brewery and decided to rectify that oversight. We had three different beers from this brewery, one in which appears to be no longer in production. The discontinued one was a pale ale by the name of Peacemaker. It was refreshing and enjoyable to have. Flavor features with this beer are that typically seen with a pale ale which are hoppy, malty and sweet. The beer is very light bodied which is nice and very smooth. Unfortunate that it's out of production. The other two beers we had are still being made. One was Shotgun Betty which is a Hefeweizen. Not bad but sometimes I struggle with Hefes and the strong banana clove flavor which was the case here. It was good that it was light bodied like most Hefes are and smooth also. The final beer was the Sweet Josie Brown Ale which I think was my favorite. The sweet, malty and coffee flavors are very enjoyable and like the prior two beers a nice smooth body to this fine dark beer. I am glad I recalled this brewery experience as I felt it was important to post the beers we had and what we thought of them!

This is a hidden gem for Durham! Although it's not a new brewery (the first one is in Raleigh),…read moreit's new to Durham. It is tucked away and behind a restaurant. They have a large beer and mixed drinks offering. The service is top notch. When I went there with a friend, I asked about sitting outside and the GM lit a fire for us. She was super welcoming and accommodating! Thanks for a great evening!

We came here on a Thursday for a late lunch. I do not recommend the burger melt. Despite it having…read moremelted cheese and caramelized onions, it had no taste. I thought beef had a naturally salty taste but there was nothing. The buffalo chicken sandwich was decent. I think the buffalo sauce and Cole slaw saved it because the chicken didn't have much of a taste either. I ordered fries originally but they delivered potatoes to me. The server that delivered the food quickly put in an order for fries to fix the first servers error and I'm glad he did. The fries saved the meal. They were cooked perfectly and hot. I'd come back here for the fries for sure. After we got our food, the servers just forgot about us and another customer that had been there for about the same amount of time that we had. We were in the restaurant another 15 minutes trying to get the attention of a server to come give us our check. The original server never came back even though we could see him at a register near the kitchen. The new server had to ask us what our order was and ring us out under her name because our original server was doing something else nearby and not being helpful to us.

Several friends in a meetup group met here for lunch on a random Tuesday. We had some drinks and…read morechatted, and then ordered lunch. The waitress was great about bringing us everything we needed. I ordered the salmon filet on greens with sweet potato cakes. The salmon was great - perfectly cooked, and the greens seemed fresh, but the whole dish was doused in a sweet maple syrup sauce, which rendered the sweet potato cakes so soaked that I couldn't choke them down. I left most of the greens as well, since the maple syrup didn't really go with a salad. The fish was fine, as I could salt it a bit and have serve as a foil to the sauce. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their food. The Rueben looked amazing. So, the moral of the story is, when you go to a bar, don't try to eat healthy! Get the bar food.
