One of the girls demanded that I delete the photo. Naturally, I refused. It's perfectly within my rights to take a photo of people in public. It is not a good photo, and I would not have used it for anything because of its poor quality. But since it shows that I was not taking inappropriate photographs and it shows the image of the young man who grabbed my phone and threw it in the street, I will share it below. I had a very good time this night up until the weirdness at the end. Your doorman was a perfect gentleman and did his job. However, I was not causing the disturbance, the girls were. I have never been treated like this before and I hope that it never happens again.

Since I have been in North Carolina I have only stepped into one nightclub prior to this one and I…read moremust say I was skeptical. Only because I am used to an overindulgence in party scenes. I met with the owner upon a business proposal to work with the nightclub in promotions for my day job. He was very nice and inviting on the ideas we had for him, in which he accepted. (Woo!) Because I am hispanic and this is a spanish club I felt comfortable in the scene and was excited to see what this place was about. It is quite big for what I expected from the outside and it got filled rather quickly after a certain time which impressed me considering how big it was. What didn't play in favor is you had to either carry cash or go to the ATM while your drink began to water down. (should've ordered my whiskey neat) The place is going to have small changes which will probably give them a little more rank. They have big performances and the radio stations broadcasting which gains a few brownie points for me. Easy going place with intentions of a good time. They play a little bit of everything but mostly mexican bachata?

I've always adored Legends, and have always wanted to go. However, I decided tonight was the night…read more I went with two friends, one of them being black. We arrive, no trouble. I and my friend get in without issue, however our friend didn't come inside for around 5 minutes. We call, she says she can't get in. We ask what's happening, we speak to a manager, white man, who immediately starts talking about her "attitude" and how he doesn't want "that in our club". I was appalled, I come outside to speak to our friend. She informs me she was told she was with another drunk person who was throwing up and couldn't come in) also a black woman), and not allowed inside. She says she isn't with her and is with us, to which she is told her attitude is the issue. What the issue is, however, is grouping our black friend with the only other black individual in line, calling for an attitude adjustment when wrongfully accused. and refusing to hear us out because you don't "want that" in the club. I was told multiple times they'd check the cameras, instead of consoling us, to which we continued to say "she is with us". Consider spending your money elsewhere divas, I am sick.

Legends is a good time. I visited with friends during my birthday weekend to attend a drag show and…read morehad a good time. This bar is notorious B.I.G. It has a beautiful patio with a cute tiki style bar. This is one of the largest bars I've seen in Raleigh. I've attended drag shows in New York City but the show here was way more entertaining. I really enjoyed the celebrity impersonations. Especially the Rihanna/Beyonce look alike lol. They have a huge dance floor, store inside that sells underwear and the large patio. Even if you aren't a member of the LGBTQ community, this is such a fun place to visit. Check out a show or stop in for a few drinks at one of the bars.

The bathroom got pretty gross the later into the night we went. The staff was super friendly and caring when talking to me. I didn't get any of the food if there was any, definitely hit up Raleigh beer garden before for some tasty eats :)

This bar is a glorious mess, the music pulses with an offbeat energy while a bartender is running a bar where the mixers seem to have gone on vacation. Better hope you're in the mood for whiskey neat or tequila straight up--because anything else is clearly an improvisation! It's a place where no one cares if the floors are sticky or the décor is a little less. It's chaos, it's charm, it's definitely unapologetic--a refuge for anyone who wants to drink, dance, and just be in the glorious mess of it all. The regulars are more like a family here, they have claimed their seats and built a strong camaraderie. Cheers!

Fubar is either your cup of tea, or more appropriately, your shot of tequila, or not…read more The club is owner Larry Carter's newest version of the space that used to be Club Oxygen, and most recently, Sin City/LC's. While Sin City fluctuated between being a rocker bar and a hip-hop club, Fubar is more reminiscent of what Club Oxygen used to be, a hard-partying bar for the young crowd. Swings line the bar, the bartenders will periodically douse the crowd with a fire extinguisher and it is the only place in Raleigh that has a permanent foam machine. Epileptics, beware; Fubar has an old barber chair that is converted to a shot chair, and you will find folks up there getting a shot and being spun around, all while strobe lights flash around them. Fubar's busiest night seems to be the Thursday evening college night. I was also in there for a Saturday evening and the place was filled with foam-soaked partiers (Which was fun to watch as it was a chilly evening, and the scantily-clad girls would all huddle outside, shivering as they talked on their cell phones ) If you are celebrating a 21st birthday, this is the place to go -- not so much if you are celebrating your 31st. And if it is, you may want to take a good, long look at where your life is headed :)

FUBAR - (adj.) acronym; F*cked up beyond all recognition; see also…read morehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FUBAR Sitting all the way back at the end of W Davie St and so out of sight, it is surprising that FuBAR can amass a crowd that size weekend after weekend, which I think contributed by the facts: Low-key atmosphere - the cover is usually $5 and ladies in free on weekend sometimes. It is a dance club, and not trying to be posh and high class. FuBar keeps a dress code, albeit lenient; No need for mens dress shoes or Sunday Best **COUGHMIRAGECOUGH** or anything that arrogant, just don't look like you are wearing your colors to represent your gang, or in your hoochie mama outfit. Swings - ah yes, the swings, hanging off that high ceilings and just the right height if you want to sit at the bar for a bit. The only thing is that, you can really "swing" it since it is installed so close to the bar, you are either going to bump your knees or your back. "Shot chair" - the infamous shot chair. It is indeed an old barber shop chair. After the cocktail girl pumps your mouth full of your pick of poison, she spins you round and around in that chair, with added effect of strobe lights atop. Do it at your own risk, however, because the chair is set on a 3 feet tall stage, and after the shots and the spins, you just might not find the way down gracefully. Dance floor - usually packed, which is good/bad depends on your preference. Music is pretty pumping and dubbing and raving (or whatever you young'uns like to call it nowadays); and when the action gets too "hot" they have a little red button that extinguish some of the heat. Besides all that, the frequent radio ad spots, combining with a brief association with G105's Club105, FuBar attracts a really good crowd, and a relatively younger/college crowd.

I must admit Capital City Tavern is doing some things right! As far a ascetics and storefront…read moreappeal, they knocked it out of the park. They took over the old Isaac Hunters and completely transformed the space. With plenty of tables outside to accommodate guests as well as a beautiful brickwork lining the walls, private tables, mood lighting and old black and white photos of Raleigh posted around the bar. That, my friends, is the good. Capital is a new bar so there's a lot of things that just don't quite flow yet. While the atmosphere seems classy they also turn the space into a dance club when the evening gets late--DJ included! The space didn't really seem to merit the dance club feel. In addition, while the bar is huge (literally huge. It's practically two separate bars with all the same liquors and beers side by side--I think the owners are trying to make sure the excuse "I couldn't make it to the bar" is never uttered at Capital!)--however with all new bars, the bartenders are a major part of making customers feel welcome and comfortable. It's obvious the bartenders are new to the space and possibly some might even be brand new bartenders, I only say this because of recommendations that were made, or were lacking for some. They also did not have any type of beer/cocktail menu yet or prices listed (this was two weeks after opening night in the beginning of July). Another unfortunate incident was finding someone's dinner in the corner of the bathroom, I don't think we were there late enough for it to be from that evening and the place wasn't very crowded. Either way, that's never a pleasant situation to run into (literally). I'd be happy to give Capital another chance in a couple months once they've ironed out all the kinks.

Also, word from an expert, go to the bar right at the front of the place. I've always been able to get a drink within 2 mins (less packed as more people want to be at the back). Good wine pours and shots as well.
