"Find a sea of strollers and families in the back beer garden here whenever the weather is nice outside. The space isn’t massive, which means two things: a buzzy, controlled chaos-type vibe and grade-A communal parenting. Kids often congregate together to play in the grass (bring a few toys to throw into the mix) or roam the adjacent Raleigh City Farm, which means parents might get to have a full conversation. Drink favorites include a rotating seasonal frozen margarita, the spicy tequila-based Chupacabra cocktail, and several original beers brewed in-house. There’s a killer grilled cheese for kids and several dips worth ordering two of from the get-go, like the Maryland-style crab dip." - Elliott Harrell
