No. It's where Hi-5 used to be. Their burger gets pretty stellar reviews, fwiw. Bogarts turned into a tex mex place iirc.

I strongly dislike this place. I went there for UNC-State Acc tourney game and although the bar was 50-50 UNC fans and State fans, the place went out of it's way to appeal to the UNC fans. I won't be going back. 4/20/2012 12:33:27 PM |

what about events like the world beer festival where they don't have limits?
or places like PB's when they have the free beer? (i guess it's actually 1 cent beer though isn't it? it's been a while!) 4/20/2012 1:18:37 PM |
wolfpackgrrr All American 39759 Posts user info edit post |
I believe the beer festival gets away with it because they are 3oz "samples." And yeah, places will have one cent beer but it's against the rules to give away beer.
I've also wondered why recently in supermarkets they can give free samples of wine and beer.

i think they have always been able to... just isn't that customary. (just guessing here though... haven't researched any of the laws.) 4/20/2012 2:10:05 PM |

Damn, didn't know this one. Definitely have bought alcohol off the internet before.
Didn't see anything in here about free beer and the like but I didn't look hard either: http://www.nccrimecontrol.org/div/ale/chp18b.pdf4/20/2012 2:28:31 PM |

I visited and barely recognized hillsborough a year and half ago. I left when downtown raleigh was ramping up. I knew of a lot of things in the works from working with developers and designers, but never saw a lot of it.

Good beer prices? I remember them being a little high. $4 mash house pints (i was not impressed), and five for any other pint. Don't know if I'd call that good...
Quote : | "i have no problem with that as long as the food is somewhat decent" |
It is. Burgers are beyond decent, and yes, a couple bucks more than ale houses and the like.
^ agreed! when i saw the expiration date of 2017 i almost bought like 10 of em, then got control of myself and opted for 2...the next they emailed that they fucked up on the expiration date and it's actually 2012.
