    Bottom line: This location of Hunky Dory in Cary offers the same good vinyl record opportunity as well as draft beer bar but a bit cozier type of space/feel than their other locations. I like the great variety of music they have as well as the atmosphere of old turntables and memorabilia it offers. The Deets: I have visited the new Cary location of Hunky Dory a couple of times now. This location is a bit smaller than the ones in Durham and Raleigh, but still offers a good selection of vinyl records as well as a beer bar with draft beer choices. The eclectic collection of furniture, turntables, games, and memorabilia makes for a cool atmosphere. The atmosphere is further carried by the "Now Spinning" selections they play, as in my most recent visit when Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band (Stranger In Town album) was playing overhead. There are many types of vinyl records available to peruse from Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra working with Frank Sinatra on vocals, Jefferson Airplane, Madonna, Prince, Billie Eilish, Lizzo, H.E.R., and others. There's a lot of vinyl to look over. Staff were welcoming when entering the store but also hung back to let one have a chance to look over all they had on display. This Hunky Dory location offers a good place to take in some vinyl and enjoy some classic music in a cool but smaller space.

    Great record selection!

    Pharmacy Bottle + Beverage nails the balance between neighborhood hangout and serious beer…read moredestination without ever feeling pretentious. The tap selection is honestly impressive -- taps galore with an ever-changing lineup that makes every visit feel a little different. I also love that you can enjoy a pint onsite and then wander over to the bottle shop side to grab some gems to take home. Dangerous for my wallet, fantastic for my fridge. The outdoor patio is spacious, relaxed, and full of happy people and happy dogs. Cary can always use more genuinely dog-friendly spots, and this place embraces it completely. Pups lounging under tables while their humans work through flights? Come for one beer, leave with a mixed 6-pack and at least three new dog friends.

    We stopped by Pharmacy Bottle recently on a night out and enjoyed our experience there…read more First, parking was a little tricky since it was the weekend and the street spots in Downtown Cary were mostly occupied, but we managed to find a paid parking spot nearby :) Not ideal, but oh well! Inside, it was pretty spacious, with a couple of couches, a few tables, and of course the bar seating. I saw multiple customers walking around with their dogs, so I'd say Pharmacy is dog-friendly. The bartender was attentive throughout, and I thought the draft beers were very reasonably priced. The selection on draft was only OK, but that's more based on personal preference, I guess :) Pharmacy also had a bunch of cans available for sale, some refrigerated and some not (presumably based on the type of beer). There was an additional fee if you chose to buy a can and drink it in the bar. Maybe this is normal, but it struck me as a little strange. They also had some food items available but I skipped those this time. Overall, I had a pretty good time. I'd definitely consider stopping by again but I'm not sure it'll be a consistent hang-out.

    This place did NOT disappoint!!! It was an impromptu lunch but so glad we ended up here. We went…read moreto the Fenton location in Cary and have on our list to try the Raleigh location as well. For starters, our waiter(if I'm not mistaken was also the bartender) was very attentive and gave excellent recommendations since it was our first visit. I ordered the rose water lemonade and my son ordered the strawberry lychee. Both were delicious so much so I asked could the two be combined without the carbonation that the lychee drink had. It was a hit!!!! For appetizers we ordered the Duck Egg rolls and asked the waiter to surprise us with the second appetizer. He chose the Pork Bao. The egg rolls were our favorite out of the two but both were great. For our entrees, my son ordered the General Tso Chicken. I couldn't decide between two dishes so I asked the waiter once again to surprise me. I ended up the whole fish(black bass) entree which was a phenomenal choice. The flavors were like a party in your mouth. It was seasoned to perfection and the sauce: OMG!!!!! Both entrees came with a bowl of fluffy rice. For dessert we got the mooncakes. They were ok. The ambience was nice and welcoming. I don't drink but was informed that it was a place people go to take part in their amazing drink selections. That it is also a great place to read a book which they have plenty to choose from if you forgot your own and a good meet up or date spot. If you are looking for new place to try this place will be a great choice!!!! Let me know what you think!!!

    When you visit NC you think BBQ and Southern food, right? Well start thinking Asian because Brewery…read moreBhavana is the best traditional Chinese Dim Sum I've had outside of NY and honestly even compared to what I've had in NY. The staff are wonderful people, friendly and welcoming, they have a menu that speaks to anyone who loves Chinese and an array of libations. The ambience is modern but warm, my favorite is being surrounded by wonderful books. And - gotta check out the wallpaper in the ladies room! Highly recommended!

    This was my first time eating here . I love grilled wings so I decided to try them. I called to…read moreplace the order and the server said they don't take orders over the phone, but I didn't want to place it online because it didn't have a comment section. So I then asked if I could place the order and get all flats , she didn't understand what a flat was so I had to explain that, and she eventually told me she'll let the grill know. I get there to get my order and check my food and low and behold , it's drums in it. So then another server comes and I told her the situation and she said I could get a refund or they could remake the 3 flats that were drums . Then got the manager and ended up telling him just to make it fresh which I waited about ten mins for . I get home and I realize , THERES STILL DRUMS . And they gave me the old wings anyways and just 3 fresh flats which I didn't want my old food back there anyways because I figured that would happen but let's just say this: NO OVER THE PHONE ORDERS AND THEY CANT DO ALL FLATS . They need to better train the server. Update dec. 2,2023 So I came here a second time and this time dine in. Did NOT like the experience. They literally ran out of silverware and my steak got cold waiting for one so I didn't even want it anymore and on top of that, the chimichurri was DISGUSTING. They said there was nothing they can do about there being no silverware and they can't just "pull it out their ass" . Didn't even offer plastic .. Took forever for food and drinks. Never got my water. Or napkins. Ended up having to order nachos only cause it was the quickest thing to order without needing the silverware . A different waiter actually helped get those nachos and faster service to me. Don't believe I'll be going back at this point. First review before the update was a year prior to 2023 review. Haven't been back since .

    It's a pub. Solid food and nice outdoor area to eat. The spinach artichoke dip looked very unique…read morebut the taste was good. It would have been better without the hot sauce on top. They legit put Texas Pete as a layer on the top. The chicken tender and fries were nice and crispy, just how I like it. The chicken and rice bowl was basic, but I would consider ordering it again.
