Then at the end they gave us free rose - again - after we told them we didn't care to drink. Was tempted multiple times to get up and leave and never going back again.

Maybe a list of a dozen singers ahead or so... HOWEVER.... Long story short, never happened. After over two and a half hours of waiting to be called up, we saw obvious friends of the KJ getting to sing three songs apiece, as well as join in a couple of times with other people who got the same privilege. Five songs for them, none for the seven in our group. KJ even said "Sometimes we just don't have enough time." Yeah. Awesome-not-awesome. Glad we all tipped you 3-5 dollars in advance to not breathe once into the microphone while he just shrugged his shoulders. Glad your friends got to have a good time while other paying customers got crapped on. Glad to not have your business again. Glad to hope this post doesn't get deleted by the owner/management for making a group of service industry folk feel entirely dismissed.

My friend who is a Carolina Alumni was visiting us from Missouri. Chris asked for her ID and she gave it to him willingly. He held her ID and yelled at her "GET OUT". Chris was convinced her ID was a fake and permanently damaged the ID. We called the cops and had them on speakerphone, then Chris, still mean, ugly, bad attention calls over the owner and she repeatedly says it's ok, it's ok, you're fine. My friend is obviously distraught, sobbing, needs this ID to get back on her flight to Missouri. The owner gave her back the ID asks us to step outside With her. Owner asks what she can do to fix the situation, fast answer is nothing. She Venmo's my friend $20 to order a new ID when she gets home. She said "he's very good with catching fakes, don't know why he would miss this one". Obviously not good enough. We are traumatized by how terrible Chris treated 4 harmless young women. I cannot believe a place could keep a bartender that is so aggressive. We have talked about this guy across Franklin street and turns out he has a bad reputation.

We also got a couple of Guinness and black window ciders, the bill was significantly cheaper than we thought it'd be. Our server was nice and attentive, the atmosphere was comfortable, the lighting was dim (like you'd expect in a tavern) and they had live music near the front door, we loved the vibe and almost went again for dinner the next night lol Definitely gonna be stopping by next time we're in Raleigh!

They had $3 draft pours and the vibe is definitely "dive bar", but still charming nonetheless. Everyone was friendly and welcoming.

Although, this was my first time here, minute by minute it felt more like I was part of this family. We will be back and I know we will be welcomed by this great group of people.
