It was a lively time. Lots of fun…the parts I remember.
I was out there from about 2 until almost 12.
pbr is shit beer no matter what your hipster friends say and measuring the quality of a party by kegs downed is too college for my taste.
but have you had a P(om)BR ?
yes sir, now there’s a warrior’s drink
actually no, but only because i’ve been refusing to go to the burough based on the name. i’ve been once and the food was fine. i even hear the owner is great. hell, i may eventually listen to my friends and go again. however i am seriously tired of this fake ny image becoming more persistent in raleigh (ie. es lounge, pi bar, etc.) in fact, the term glo-so makes me sick my stomach. i’m not saying i want a bar centered on dixieland, but i wish all these people kidding themselves with this faux-metropolitan image would embrace the small urban charm raleigh has to offer.
Liz (the owner) is from Brooklyn and it is one block off of Hillsborough….hence the name….Its not trying to be anything more than it is. A local (another reason for the name) bar.
The city kept calling it Raleigh Wide Open II but I figured it was more of a parody like this:
the photos from RaleighSkyLine are great….I especially like the “sad beer bottle,” I definitely laughed out loud.
