Javon Walker: Had my bartender make a ‘Far East Rickey’ and it looked like a work of art. The effort put in was nothing less than a magician doing a grand finale.The care they took with making the drink a memorable experience is something i won’t be forgetting.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Cocktail Garnishes Galore …More

Zee: Watts & Ward is a unique place for drinks. It had multiple rooms to sit down and have a drink. I like the vibe with leather couches and unique rustic wooden tables. Watts & Ward also had live music certain days. Definitely recommend if your meeting friends for drinks or just to hangout.
Falan E: I visited Watts & Ward for the first time Sunday evening after 6 pm. The staff at the entrance was welcoming. Watts & Ward is downstairs in a basement-like space. Cute space with vintage aesthetics which is very nice and comfortable with plenty of seating. The overall aesthetics of the space and comfortability is a 4*. A few things on the patio seemed out of place but overall a nice space.This particular evening the bartender in The Mud Room demeanor was not friendly, or enthusiastic. That individual didn't demonstrate good customer service warranting anything over an overall 3* based on my experience. Even the person cleaning off the table didn't engage any.I had a Hendricks mule, not in a mule cup. The lemon and ginger were overpowering - way too much carbonation. I like that I get more bang for my buck in the tall glass but as a courtesy, the bartender could share they don't carry the copper mules. This would've leveled up the experience. For me, a copper mule cup is necessary for a proper Moscow Mule.Customer service usually inspires me to return places but in this case, it's the space and others who have enjoyed themselves. I hope to return for the comedy night in the future, hopefully, a better experience.
Mariss: Watts & Ward is a unique 1920’s themed speakeasy style bar located on S. Blount St in downtown Raleigh situated in the basement of the Montague building. It features 4 bars, The Mud Room, Main Bar, Patio & Library. I have visited twice now and enjoy the grown & sexy vibe and diverse mature crowd here. The staff whom I’ve interacted with appear to enjoy their place of work and take pride in that. I visited recently on a Sunday when service was slower during the holiday and this evening for comedy night. The service was excellent tonight, the bartenders were very friendly and bar service was offered while seated. I’ve ordered the Far East Ricky with Tanqueray Gin, Lime, Cucumber, Mint and a Egg White and the Penicillin with Johnnie Walker Red Label, Ginger, Honey, Lemon, Islay Scotch and enjoyed both. I love the classic jams they play as well. Good music. Ryan who worked the door tonight urged me to return for live jazz on Thursday.I really enjoy how the Prohibition and Roaring 20’s vibe is carried throughout the venue. It makes you feel like you flew off a page of the Great Gatsby. This venue is huge and features a beautiful garden patio. I look forward to returning for the live Jazz night, patio and more comedy.
Hayward Campbell: Nice atmosphere, awesome bar staff, one of my favorites
Lydia Vandemark: best cocktails i’ve ever had!! sandra and hannah were absolutely amazing and made me drinks to my personal taste and couldn’t have loved the vibe more!!!
Joshua Abantohollans: Great pub with a speakeasy vibe! Once you go down the stairs and through the hall, you encounter several rooms that resemble a private library and several bars servicing them. But the real treat is the outside patio area! Super comfortable & relaxing yet still true to it’s prohibition ambiance!
Andrew B: What an amazing place! Great bartenders in a really cool setting.
Aaron Brown: Always have a good time at Watts & Ward. Live, jazz music always hits too.
River E: Super cozy vibes
Courtney Wilkins: Live music indoor outdoor bar. Atmosphere is sexy relaxed with a cool vibe.
Gab Riela: Favorite place to have drink with friends!
Sophia Alexandria: This is my absolute favorite bar/lounge out here. This a beautiful place and it's massive. Sometimes they have live bands. The drinks are good as well. I love the ambiance and the vibe. I love the history and the culture of this place.
Chance LeBron: Great atmosphere and great drinks!
Jorge Santoyo: Can often get crowded, but there is no other place like it. The indoor bars and outdoor section are both great atmospheres and their drinks are great.
Becky Collins (blueayes): First visited just before COVID, and then moved away. We finally got to visit again and it did not disappoint at all. One of our favorite places in downtown Raleigh and can't wait to come back! Super comfortable, wonderful vibe with exceptional drink options.

Noir Bar & Lounge: what do users think?
Kisha Henderson: Loved it!!!
Michael Brown: Dont go out of your way to go here if you look a certain way. Meaning if you have gold teeth they wont let u in
selma arany: Fun place to danceStaff amazing and professional
Gangstars GoneWild: Bar and lounge? I don't think so. How can you lounge without any chairs. This place is just one small dancefloor. So when you walk in I hope your ready to dance. (Strictly trap music only)They have 3 sectional couches on one side that they call a VIP. (Still on the dancefloor) They don't even have chairs at the bar. And the drink prices are ridiculously high. This is what you call a "hole in the wall" The add is misleading. We were disappointed to say the least.
Terrica America: Wednesday poetry open mic are awesome.
Renita Suitt: Nice atmosphere good drinks nice venue
Trice Holden: Small space need to used for parties only
Robert McLymore: Pretty nice spot. I’ve only been to this bar after hours on Friday and Saturday. It’s just like any other night club. It has good nights where there are big crowds. Some nights aren’t so crowded. There has always been a good amount of security outside and inside. Everyone has always been friendly and I’ve yet to witness a fight during the late night hours. Not saying it hasn’t happened before.The times I’ve been it was a great.
Winston Graham: Cool bar went there when it was a day party...lot of fun!
Nyasha Conner: It's a small place, but it was nice. The DJ was really good. Also our bottle service was on point.
Lee Walston Jr: Great vibe
Dajuan Porch: Great atmosphere
Amber Chapman: Nice atmosphere drinks over priced
Jonathan Murray: Great place for a Private party.
Terry Terry: I had a blast. Employees are nice. Music is good. Drinks a little overpriced. Dont go before midnight, it doesnt start jumpin til then
nicole Johnson: My 1st time there it is a nice place love the ambience the DJ was on point. It was a mixer of age groups I don't know if it was bc the Que's had a party next door at Solas but I enjoyed myself
Michael Lawton: Poetry Night Wednesday was fun!
Kimberly Winborne: The space was perfect for the event that I attended Saturday. I've worked with the owner for some time and he is always consistently accommodating and easy to work with! The space was able to fit vendors, a runway, and still have plenty of space for participants. Great location as well.
jonathan cabrera: Fun place
Best Choice Janitorial: Nice club 👌 the music was awesome
mike im: Great live music, lively crowd, love it!

Kings: what do users think?
BLIX/ M8N/ NCBM: Good experience, too many stairs lol
Elizabeth Mynes: Went here for a show. Even though it was packed, there is plenty of seating by the walls. Great for people who have trouble standing. The drinks are great and affordable.
Drew Blanks: Amazing service from Skyler! She mentioned rewards and this is the 5th time we’ve been here and she’s the first one to tell us! Will definitely be booking a party here soon and will be requesting her to serve us!
Doctor Quid: Great for heavy music!
Brennan Novak: I love kings. It can get a little packed and busy but it is definitely worth a visit for a good show. We've been to a couple "Great Cover-up" shows and we love the creativity and its for a great cause.
Kevin Carr: My favorite hang out spot 💯
Felipe Melo: God I miss Kings and The Great Cover Up! I hope the venue re-opens again some day. This is part of Raleigh’s heritage
Jordan Denton: Best venue in town!!
Josh Staydon: Fun time with the small group we took. Service was great they made sure we had the best experience for our friends birthday.
John Geary: Best pizza, service, drinks, experience in North Hills. Shoutout to Collin, Jordan, Susan, Will, Kat, Jazzy, Q & crew.(if I forgot anyone I apologize, entire staff is phenomenal)
Daniel S: It's ok, service is ok, food is ok. Kicked out of our bowling lane after 1 hr because that's protocol if there's a waiting list. Not given an option to extend time. Not a great experience after waiting 2 hrs for a lane. Don't think I'll be back.
Elizabeth O'Connor: Love this place! So much fun stuff to do, and the food is way way better than any other place you can bowl at!!!!
Crystal Lefoy: Great night of music. Be warned it is standing room only and won't start on time.
Arieh Samson: Killer sound & staff. This place has soul, edge and is a great zone to discover music.
Julie Stevens: Cool spot. Plan for a cover. Funky vibe. They did seem a bit weird to have three middle aged women in there. But otherwise I thought it was cool. Ha!
Dustin Win: Nice little personal music venue. Careful though, it gets super loud. Earplugs recommended.
Mary Harris: Generous pours!
Trey Richardson: I run a live sound reinforcement and entertainment company, as well as the band DethCadence in Fuquay-Varina. I enjoyed this venue and the employees. They were very hospitable and welcoming. Their communication was on point and fast. We were able to get an event rolling with no problems. The sound engineer there was helpful and paid attention to detail with the bands needs.More venues should be like this in that area. Sadly these guys were the only ones that hold the gold for professionalism. We can’t thank them enough. A load in elevator would be nice but hey, the hard work paid off well.Can’t wait to play there again! Our audience thoroughly enjoyed the place and the bar.Thanks guys much love to you all!
Nicole Paolucci: Usually a really great, eclectic mix of performers. Excellent cat mural (a must have in all bars?). Seating/standing along the perimeter, which is nice for short people, like me. Good beer selection and the sound is usually really good!! Love this place!
Kyle Fisher: Great fairly small venue. I enjoyed the atmosphere and will look for more shows here!
Dillon Myrick: The greatest music venue in the world
