    Array of beers and a seltzer!
    Sweta S.

    This is a relaxing, neighborhood brewery! If I lived nearby, this would be a great local haunt. Reminds me of the breweries in Durham. So, I do not have a good reason to drive to Apex for this. But, they also had a hard seltzer on tap and wine! So, they are not limited to beer. If you live in Apex and looking for a comfortable bar, this is the place to go!

    Bottle Theory is a wine and beer bottle shop and just recently also added coffee to their morning menu. You will find seating, bottles of beer in the fridges, international wines along the walls and a nice bar with barstools and menus. There is patio seating as well and food trucks on rotation in the evenings . They offer wine tastings on certain nights and trivia on Thursdays. We stopped in to try a coffee drink and were impressed with Zach's coffee knowledge. Coffee is served in paper cups to dine in our take out.

    What a great find right off the bike trail! They have a fantastic selection of beers AND Wines! They have 2oz pours if you want to create your own flights..... Nice booths if you want to get a little work done remote. Nice patio out of the blazing sun in the afternoon and they have heaters in the colder months

    Bottle Theory is a new craft beer and wine shop that has opened in Apex. The draft beer selection was a great mix, I got one of the IPAs. If you don't see anything on draft, they have bottles and cans. Wine is also available. It was a fun time and I can't wait to return.

    Awesome beer and wine selection to enjoy on premise or take home. Love the vibe and find the gated kids play area with parent bar stools on the side to supervise kiddos useful but humorous. A little off the beaten path for now but lots of construction in the area with potential to become a neighborhood hangout. Only downside is their prices are higher than other similar establishments.

    The vibes in here are so welcoming and open! Not only is it welcoming to pets and children, but there are games to entertain an audience of any kind! The owners are so nice, and do everything they can to help customers and employees and the food trucks that they have in rotation weekly are to die for!!

    We attended a wine class at Bottle Theory. Great pace, really an event where everyone could ask questions and participate. Class leader was knowledgeable and funny. We'll definitely be back for the next one!

    Bottle Theory has a great selection of beer and wine. We grabbed a few rounds of drinks and had a really fun time. If you are in the Apex area, check this spot out.

    Amazing! Perfect spot for a cold brew! Wine school was a blast and there's always a good food truck near by.

    They have a lot of indoor and outdoor seating, but our favorite spot to sit was in one of their cozy booths.

    I do not recall having any familiarity with this particular brand of grocery stores, which…read moreconfusingly sounds similar to the hardware store brand. The store was quite pleasant and sizable inside. To get any deals you had to sign up with their rewards program, which I couldn't figure out how to do during my hurried visit. Thus, the prices that I found were on the higher side, but I got a lot of vegetables and fruits of quality ranging from good to marginal and a few niche special dietary items like banana milk. There was only one person working a register so I ended up finding the self-checkout, which worked out fine.

    I've been using the gas station here for a while (it's solid!), but I didn't venture inside the…read moreactual store until today. I was pretty darn impressed! There was a big selection of produce and meats, and the canned and bottled beer selection was actually pretty impressive - definitely better than the other grocery stores in the area. I was also entertained by the presence of the bar :) Maybe I'll grab a beer sometime! The bar also offered coffee drinks, and my wife grabbed a latte to sip while we walked around. It was affordably priced and my wife said it was pretty good! All of the food seemed generally high quality, and the prices were a tiny bit high but nothing crazy. I'll definitely be back to buy some groceries!

    You can get so many things smoked at the Smokehouse. The smoker is right in the store.

    So...what's the actual name of this place? Bottles & Cans Beer and Wine Shop or Taps and Social?…read moreJudging by the signage and the receipt, it seems to answer to both. Either way, it delivers exactly what you'd hope for--a great selection of drinks in a relaxed, social setting. After finishing dinner at Shijiri, we had a little over an hour to kill before heading home, so we wandered over here. We decided to grab seats inside rather than on the front patio. The interior is surprisingly spacious, with plenty of seating whether you prefer pulling up to the bar or sinking into one of the comfortable sofas. Our tasting lineup included the refreshing Sangria Slushy, Anderson Valley's Wild Turkey Bourbon Barrel Stout, and Komana's Hefe the Hefeweizen. While enjoying our drinks, we spent some time hanging out with Aria, the Bouvier des Flandres, who was incredibly friendly and happily accepted all the attention. She definitely added to the welcoming atmosphere. Before leaving, we couldn't resist browsing the shelves and ended up taking home a build-your-own six-pack featuring beers from 3 Floyds, Edit, Middle James, Two Tides, Grimm, and Anytime Beer Co. The selection is excellent for anyone who enjoys discovering craft beers beyond the usual grocery store offerings. Whether you're looking to enjoy a drink on-site, build a mixed six-pack to take home, or simply relax with friends (or make a new four-legged one), this place checks all the boxes. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area.

    Dropped by Bottles & Cans recently and had a good experience…read more Parking was very convenient because Bottles & Cans is part of a strip mall, so no problems there. They had a pretty decent selection of beers available, and I was impressed that you could get pretty much any type of beer as a singleton (versus having to buy a 4 pack or whatever). I did feel like the refrigerated section could have been a bit larger, but they did have a few good choices in there. They had a big selection of beers available on tap, and while I didn't partake this time, I was kind of tempted by the quadrupel :) The bartender was nice and helpful throughout my visit. Overall, if you're in the area, this seems like a nice place to stop and grab a beer. I've seen slightly better selection of beers elsewhere, but I do think you could find something you like here :)
