My partner ordered the weathervane wheat blueberry which was fantastic and had a good balanced fruit flavor. Overall this brewery has great beer and chill vibes. Definitely check it out if you are in the Knightdale area.

The place is clean and bright, and they have a nice-sized beer garden out back as well. What really set them apart was the service, though. From the beertender to the friendy folks at the bar, I left feeling like I'd made a few new friends in North Carolina!

Either way it's an enjoyable stay. Cheers!

The bar top has seen its share of secrets, laughter, and spilled pints -- all part of its charm. The brown chairs are so comfortable you'll forget you came for "just one," and the tables seem to lean in, inviting good company and even better conversation. Their beer selection is serious -- shelves stacked with local legends, cult favorites, and unexpected discoveries to take home or sip on-site. Step outside and you'll find a few sun-kissed seats where the breeze mingles with the low hum of laughter and clinking glasses. It's unpretentious, a little quirky, and proudly yours to discover -- the kind of place that feels like home by the second drink. Behind the bar stands the magician of the room -- fast hands, sharp instincts, and a touch of theater in every pour. Whether it's a classic, like an Old Fashioned, done perfectly, or something you didn't know you wanted, they craft it with speed and soul. A little charm, a little chaos, and a lot of balance -- just like a great drink should be. Cheers!

I'd recommend parking a few blocks away and walking if you are unable to find parking nearby. Walking into the restaurant you'll be transported to a modern brewery, bookstore, and flower shop. It feels chic, Belgian inspired, and upscale. To start I ordered a Vase IPA which was excellent. I then switched to cocktails and ordered the Black Sesame Old Fashioned (bourbon, black sesame, black walnut bitters), the Dionysus (pinot noir, raspberry lemon shrub, chambord, amaretto, lemon, rhubarb bitters), and an aviation (hendricks, luxardo, creme de violette, lemon). By far the Black Sesame Old Fashioned was my favorite and what a nice touch with cracker on top of the dish. For food we ordered the Gai Lan (Stir-fried Chinese broccoli with garlic and oyster sauce), the Peking Duck (Whole, barbecued, free-range duck served with steamed bao buns, cucumber, scallions, and hoisin-honey sauce), Sweet Soy Chicken (Scallions, bell peppers, and caramelized in our ginger soy sauce. Served with jasmine rice), the Lo Mein Noodles (Stir-fried noodles with julienned shiitake mushrooms, choy sum greens, soy sauce, and shrimp), seafood dumplings (Lobster, shrimp, and scallop dumplings served in garlic and black mushroom sauce with fried Youtiao doughnuts), Chicken Curry Bao (Steamed buns filled with spicy yellow chicken and vegetable curry), the Beef with Longhorn Peopers (Sautéed beef, ginger, and longhorn peppers with Shaoxing wine sauce. Served with jasmine rice), the Xiao Long Bao (Steamed crab and ground pork soup dumplings), Nasi Goreng Crab Fried Rice (Traditional Indonesian Chinese fried rice with blue crab meat, Nam Pla fish sauce, house made Nasi Goreng sauce, served in an egg crêpe), and the General Tso's Chicken (Crunchy, sweet, and tangy, Bhavana's General Tso comes with your choice of chicken or tofu tossed in our house-made General sauce and topped with sesame seeds. Served with jasmine rice). By far our favorite food items were the seafood dumplings (excellent flavor, Chinese donuts were so good, along with the flavor from the broth), and the shrimp lo mein noodles (cooked perfectly and the sauce was perfectly distributed). Definitely check out brewery bhavana if you are looking for excellent Chinese food in the Raleigh area. This is by far one of my favorite restaurants in the area.

Wow! This was one of the best meals I've ever had! My husband dined here several years ago, and…read moreevery time Raleigh comes up in conversation, he hyped this local gem up to me and said it was a must-visit whenever we had the chance. Well, I finally got to try Brewery Bhavana and it was indeed incredible. Definitely worth the hype. We met my coworker and her partner here for dinner, and I was grateful we had a reservation because this spot was poppin' on a Monday night! The dining room is huge, but the decor breaks things up a bit and makes your meal feel intimate. Everything is shareable, so I highly recommend visiting with fellow foodies who want to try a little bit of everything. Honestly the entire menu sounded amazing, and it was hard to choose! Thankfully our servers provided some excellent recommendations. The Pork Bao was probably my favorite bite of the night, and may very well have been the best Bao I've ever had. The Lap Cheung Fried Rice was also delicious, and I'm usually not a fried rice person! Also worth mentioning is the Lo Mein, which we ordered with chicken. We didn't stay for dessert, but all of their sweet offerings sounded incredible as well. I did try one of the beers they brew on-site, the Sow. It was light and sippable, and I appreciate their diverse beer and cocktail offerings. I can't wait to visit Raleigh again because this will be my first stop!

Although there were only a few patrons, it seemed like a bit too much for one person to handle, but he did so with grace.

I ordered a specialty cocktail that was really good...lemon pepper chicken wings that were DELICIOUS...a smash burger and fries (burger was only so-so, but thy fries were good!)...and finished with fried oreos served with melted chocolate for dessert that were absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS. I highly recommend Falls Local for their prime location, great service, delicious menu offerings, and overall great vibe. Can't wait to go back!

Simple, fresh, delicious ingredients. This is literally the only place I've enjoyed spaghetti and meatballs. Like seriously. Who goes out for spaghetti and meatballs? Apparently I do, at least once a week, across the table from my lovely husband who sticks to his usual pepperoni pizza. Everything but the pasta here is made in house. Delicious! Speaking of pizza... They do this eggplant pizza that will blow your mind. Paper thin lightly breaded and pan fried slices of eggplant atop a pizza with your choice of red or white sauce. I recommend the white sauce with a side of Pomodoro to get the best of both worlds. They've got this sandwich called "the cannon", which is basically a meatball sub on a pizza folded in half. Usually restaurant meatballs are trash. They are delicious here and that thing will fill you up and then some! You can even do a couple of apps like small plates as your meal. They have an eggplant dish that's incredible! And the dressed greens are so tender and fresh! Drinks are yummy. Try a Hugo Spritz, it's my favorite! Oh ya, and the staff is awesome, too! Friendly, attentive, and consistently on point. Have never had a bad experience here. Heck, they even remade a whole entire pizza for me because THEY weren't happy with the way it came out. Who does that? Luna Pizza! The vibe in here in cool, too. I always say that I feel like I'm dining on vacation because this place is just fun, hip, fresh, and delicious like the places I usually find abroad. Come here. Enjoy!
