The interior is so well decorated and relaxing. Tables and lounging chairs fill the room with soft music. The lighting is modern and lit to provide a warm environment. The old teller area is the coffee bar with bar stools. I ordered a marshmallow latte. It was the best I had ever tasted. Perfectly sweetened with a robust flavor of coffee. I also ordered the chicken salad on a croissant. The bun was soft and the chicken salad was very good. I haven't been to this area in 13 years. I will be visiting this place every time I'm in town. I wish I had this coffee shop back home!

I visited this speakeasy bar after receiving the recommendation from dinner guests. I have visited…read morethree additional times since my initial visit a few days ago. The owner is friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. The food and drink menus offer affordable, easy to order items. There is a separate suite located two door down from the bar that serves a variety of wines with the option to order the same food items. I enjoyed karaoke night. The crowd was live, and not too loud. This was a great find in Smithfield, considering the few bars and entertainment options available in the area. Most of all, the bar was clean. The ambiance was not smoky, and I felt safe. I will return again for a raspberry lemon drop, and an old fashioned drink.

Heckler Brewing is a great local brewery, and it's got an excellent vibe to it. The staple brews…read morethey have are definitely respectable and especially the English IPA. They don't have an overwhelming draft or canned menu which to me is appreciated. I don't mind choices however when you have a craft beer menu that's deep it can be quite daunting. So to the Heckler crew, thank you for keeping it simple. This visit I had the Fried Pickles which if being honest were good but they're not the best I've had. If I could give a recommendation I would move away from the breading that's being used as I feel it takes away from the actual pickle which for me is about 90% of the taste profile. The breading was a bit overpowering. Sometimes simple is better. But that's just my opinion as a fried pickle enthusiast. Now as for the pizza, I have to give a solid high five. I've been here three times and everytime I've gotten a pizza and none have disappointed. This time around I got the meat lovers and it was fresh, and delicious. Overall, Heckler is a great place to go and one thing I do love about this place is that it's always a chill vibe, with great service.

The brewery was close to our adventure at Zip Quest in Fayetteville NC where we just concluded a…read moretwo hour zip line tour. It was a great time to have a cold beer. There were about 10 choices and after a couple of free samples I ordered their stout beer. It went well with the bbq chicken pizza. I was told by the brew master that they use their beer when making the fresh dough for the pizzas they make at the restaurant. It was a good touch.

Turns out the new ownership and vibe was not only just what we were looking for, but something we don't really have on this side of town.

Great vibe, pool tables, skeeball, touchtunes jukebox, great drink specials, nice people (both patrons and the bartenders). Fun, dive bar type atmosphere but clean and respectable. We will be returning, often. We might have found our new favorite dive on this side of town.

The bartender informed us that that was an OK place to park. They opened right at one, and we were the first people in there. We inquired about food since we had not eaten lunch yet, but they were unable to let us know if their kitchen was going to open that day or not. They just started a food truck a few days prior, but that was not going to be there that day. We ordered flights and sat at the end of a really cool looking bar. I was really impressed with the fact that I liked three out of four of my beer choices. I got a stout, a blueberry cider, a prickly pear cider, and a pickle beer. Because of course we're in Mount Olive for the pickles! LOL. They will add a pickle per request! Also had sips of my besties Shake it off, the strawberry milkshake, IPA. I have never had an IPA that I liked before. We wanted to get some of the stout to go, but there was not any in the cooler. We asked Dominic, the bartender and he actually went out back to look for us. He was unable to find them, but had four behind the bar that he sold to us. We were able to add two of the shake it off to make a six pack. That was $16. Overall a great experience. The inside of the bar was lovely. The bartender was friendly and helpful. And best of all was the excellent beer. I wish this bar wasn't so far...I would definitely become a regular here!
