What a happy little spot! πŸ₯° The energy here is sooo good. It feels like hanging out in your backyard with good people, good food, and no chores. πŸ˜‚ The owner is cheerful, welcoming, and clearly knows how to make you feel at home. I’ll definitely be back for a little afternoon Wi-Fi and that fish sandwich. So, naturally, I’m bundling the two and calling it Lara’s Afternoon Wi-Fi(sh). πŸ“ΆπŸŸπŸ₯ͺ Get connected. Get fed. Get happy. πŸ“ΆπŸŸπŸ˜Š THE END. 🐟πŸ₯ͺ❀️

Franklin Motors is my favorite spot in town. Great beer selection, funky, laid-back space. The food truck turns out delicious sliders and fries. You can tell this place is well-managed. Can’t recommend it enough!

Right on the border of Chapel Hill and Carrboro is a great spot to enjoy a gorgeous day and meet up with friends. Not much indoor seating (though some covered), but you don’t usually need protection from the elements around here. Extensive beer selection, something for everyone. And the food truck (food platform?) serves some great burger/slider options.

A routine favorite! The beers and Biergarten are always enjoyable. But... the food quality has dropped tremendously since the original ownership changed hands. Roquette was consistently awesome. A pair of us would happily throw down $70-80 for an evening (beers included), regularly. That's special. It's too bad that that chef walked away, because now we're left with cold, dry fries and sub-standard pub grub offerings. What are they thinking! Nothing good lasts forever.

This spot ROCKS! Love the upstairs fairy light rustic vibes. The Caesar salad is award winning. Mac n cheese was also impressive. They have a nice selection of beers too. Pretty casual, but in a nice way. Apparently the fries are delightful. Would happily come back. $12-18 for food.
