Adjacent to it is a place called the boot room which serves such a great and wonderful selection of food. Spacious & open air with decent seating and plenty of room for large crowds. Patio area in front of both businesses allows for outdoor dining and conversation over drinks. Not too pricey at all. Sampling of taps available as well. Bartenders are always nice, attentive and accommodating. Interestingly enough, they seem to have this strange fascination with Danny Devito.

This place has a cool vibe to it, looks like a place to watch some professional soccer games!! They have around 40 beers on tap. I wanted to try some sour beers so I asked the bar tender to surprise me with one and she poured an Edmund's Oast Sour Pear, it was very good! My other surprise sour was also very good, I forgot the name of that one. They also sell some food here that looked very good! If you have not been here yet, you need to try this place! Cheers!

Brewery #455 Atomic…read moreClock Brewing is a very nice place that had very good beer, particularly their hazies. I got a flight of beer and ordered a Beef on Wick with fries. The bartender while nice was kind of flighty, just lacked awareness of the amount of people waiting to get beer. My flight consisted of A Belgian, Schrodinger's Pale Ale, and 2 hazy IPAs. The Critical Mass (DIPA) and Atomichron (hazy) were both phenomenal. Then we waited almost an hour for the Beef on Wick to come out. It's literally just a roast beef sandwich with fries. The food was great, but the wait was insane. Great beer, good food, nice people but just not in any kind of hurry.

My friends convinced me to give this place a second chance. I knew I should have said no but they…read morewere so adamant about it and I thought maybe it would be better this time. I was wrong. So wrong. This place is the absolute worst. It's so unfortunate because the place is beautiful and has potential. I've learned my lesson and there will not be a third time. We attempted to sit at a table for 8 but the chairs are oversized and the tables are far too close together. We had to remove two chairs to even attempt to slide across the chairs because you cannot pull them out to sit down. It's extremely difficult and uncomfortable to have to slide all the way out to let people in and out. Not user friendly at all. I wanted to order a beer but just like last time they didn't have any beer I'd ever drink which is saying a lot as I will drink anything that's not an IPA or super yellow. So I ordered the Rosè margarita but the male bartender told me they were out of that drink. Impossible. I could see both rosè and tequila from where I was standing. A female bartender overheard the male bartender lying to me and she said she would make the margarita for me. Hmmmmmmmm. So one honest bartender and one who lies because he only wants to pour beers. Thanks for solidifying that I was right to say I'd never be back to this awful establishment.

It's very much a beer bar, the kind of place where you can stare at the tap list for a minute or two and still feel like you missed something. I had no trouble finding a draft and my friend found a cider she liked, so everyone was happy. And since it was one of those huge pours, we took the rest to go, which is one of the perks of being in Durham's Social District. I've got a separate review about that, but the short version is that carrying your beer down the street feels oddly civilized. It's a fun spot with board games and a relaxed vibe. The outside seating area is pretty cool, even if the view is mostly the street and buses rolling past. Inside or out, there are plenty of beer options on tap and in cans or bottles, so odds are good that you'll find something you enjoy. It was a nice was to end the tour and wind down the afternoon. While they don't have a kitchen, they do have snacks including ramen tubs and such that you can microwave on site. [Review 1168 of 2026 - 4817 in North Carolina - 26347 overall]

Brewery # 456 I had…read morebeen to the Dssolvr in Asheville a few years ago and I loved it. It was packed in Asheville, so my experience was rushed, but I remember having a great hazy and I loved their brand stickers (Cornholio and a zombie looking Bart Simpson) . Fast forward 4 years and I am in Durham on a random weekday afternoon. My buddies and I had the place to ourselves. This time I was able to get a flight. The lovely new bartender recommended the Absolutely Extraterrestrials Mexican Stout that had an ABV of 13%! I think she was trying to get me drunk! Anywho, I also got the Kolsch and 2 IPAs on the flight. They were all great but the stout (absolutely delicious and complex) and the Love Computer DIPA were my favorites. Dssolvr didn't have food and no food truck when I was there but there are plenty of places in the area. The beer is phenomenal and I wish we had time to get another flight to try more. However, Durham has a lot of breweries for such a small area, so we had to hop around. Any brewery hop in Durham or Asheville has to involve Dssolvr.

The bar line always moves quickly and their signage is very clear regarding where to place/pickup food orders.

Try to avoid parking on the side street in front of the brewery as it can be really difficult to get out. I tend to avoid this spot on the weekends as it gets crowded fairly quickly.

Thank god for places like this for those of us who want to eat past 9pm. We sat at a table rather than the bar and our waitress was just the sweetest. The wines available impressed for a place that is more of a gastropub/dive bar. I just wanted a quick pre dinner glass of wine and I also admired the menu because it had a decent selection of veg options, like I could see myself hungry as an animal late at night and do well enough here. My dining companion's nachos were an absurdly huge portion, considering the reasonable price. I didn't know places like this even existed anymore!
