    Bar area.

    As the advertisement goes, "like, if a dive bar were a girl." That pretty much sums it up. Stella is a cool, eclectic and a bit off beat. The bar has a bit of punk rock charm as I would put it. The interior is decorated as such with kitschy decor and old vinyl album covers mostly of 70s and 80s rock artists, again pretty cool. It is right next door to Lagana where we had dinner and so we stopped in for a drink before heading home. My wife had an Aperol Spritz and I had a Woodford Old Fashioned. It was ok and I believe I make a better one. Anyway, Stella is unique and a cool neighborhood type of place to hangout prior or after eating dinner in the area. You also can take your drinks to the outdoor seating.

    A fun new spot on West Street, Stella's took over the old Pink Boot space but is still serving up affordable drinks for the neighborhood. Enjoyed the quirky and eclectic decor, Gabriel manning the bar did an awesome job behind the stick. The crowd ranged from 25 to 65 so I guess people are curious about the place. I'll be back to explore more once they get settled in!

    Cheap beer and decent crowds. I come here for my ADHD brain to get overstimulated, plus PBR on draft!

    Great drinks and pool. The upstairs is hot (no a/c) but lots of fans and cold drinks.read more

    My friends and I who are well over age have enjoyed attending Zogs. We will no longer attend Zogs…read moreafter a traumatic experience on a Thursday night with a bartender named Chris. My friend who is a Carolina Alumni was visiting us from Missouri. Chris asked for her ID and she gave it to him willingly. He held her ID and yelled at her "GET OUT". Chris was convinced her ID was a fake and permanently damaged the ID. We called the cops and had them on speakerphone, then Chris, still mean, ugly, bad attention calls over the owner and she repeatedly says it's ok, it's ok, you're fine. My friend is obviously distraught, sobbing, needs this ID to get back on her flight to Missouri. The owner gave her back the ID asks us to step outside With her. Owner asks what she can do to fix the situation, fast answer is nothing. She Venmo's my friend $20 to order a new ID when she gets home. She said "he's very good with catching fakes, don't know why he would miss this one". Obviously not good enough. We are traumatized by how terrible Chris treated 4 harmless young women. I cannot believe a place could keep a bartender that is so aggressive. We have talked about this guy across Franklin street and turns out he has a bad reputation.

    O'Malley's is a classic neighborhood Irish Pub in the heart of Raleigh…read more Atmosphere is dark, intimate, and immediately comfortable. Service is friendly and attentive, the menu is extensive...from handhelds to appetizers to Irish classics like Shepherds Pie and Fish n' Chips. The two times I've been here there was a guitarist playing live music, if you're into the kind of thing. Hard to go wrong with a place like O'Malley's. If you're in the area and looking for a good meal or a comfortable watering hole, give them a try!

    We were staying at the best western near by and looking for a quick dinner we could walk to, SO…read moreGLAD we found o'malleys! We got the sampler with cappies, fried pickles, poppers and mac bites, that was amazing, I don't know what the mustard sauce on the plate was but you'll want to eat it on everything! For dinner we got the Rueben (menu said "Raleigh's finest", and they would be CORRECT!) and the St. Patrick with smashed potatoes, everything was amazing! We also got a couple of Guinness and black window ciders, the bill was significantly cheaper than we thought it'd be. Our server was nice and attentive, the atmosphere was comfortable, the lighting was dim (like you'd expect in a tavern) and they had live music near the front door, we loved the vibe and almost went again for dinner the next night lol Definitely gonna be stopping by next time we're in Raleigh!
