On Mondays their drink special is $5 for any draft, what a steal! We all enjoyed a drink and a few games. I love the decor and vibes in Boxcar, the artwork is really punk and cool looking. My favorite game, The Lucky Duck, was broken (the claw wouldn't extend far enough to reach any ducks). I reported this to a staff member and she let me pick out any 2 ducks I wanted! The Pokemon pinball was fun too, I love the variety of pinball machines.

Minus: Relatively small selection of beer, relatively small selection of records (and not in great…read moreABC order), relatively small stage for in-house performances. Plus: Wonderful friendly staff, always something different playing on the turntable, fair values for buying or selling. Plus: Right downtown for easy parking. Minus: Up a narrow flight of stairs. Plus: Room to sit once you're up there. Etc. etc. In the end, I enjoyed my time there but the limitations make it a solid 4 instead of 5.

Nice venue, loud music!…read more First, I highly recommend that you bring some ear-plugs with you, you won't regret it! I visited Kings on my last visit to Raleigh to watch Paerish perform. My only complaint was the maxing out of the volume on the sound system, when the bands all played, without hearing protection it was impossible to hear the lyrics. And those that didn't bring hearing protection ended up with a ringing in their ears the following day! The bar was great, I was dismayed when I found out that soda water had a charge above the entrance fee, since part of my tip went toward their register, but somebody has to pay for the bubbles out of their tap! If I go again, I will be certain to bring some extra sets of earplugs for the people that come with me.
