In my experience this is probably the best bar I've been to on the entire east coast. Bartenders are amazing, drinks superb. We spent 4 nights in Chapel Hill and we went there 5 times. Just the best.
Definitely the best place to go for cocktails in Chapel Hill . The cocktail list is good, but if you can't find anything you want, ask the knowledgeable mixologists to come up with something for you!
Patrons rave about the knowledgeable bar staff . And the dozen beers on tap , along with 100 other bottled liquor and beer offerings, mean you won’t go home thirsty. Read more
The best barrel aged cocktails in North Carolina hands down.
Known as much for its cocktails as its craft beer selections , the Crunkletown is more grad school than freshman coed. Ever had house made tonic or ginger ale ? Then you’re missing out. Read more
Classy place that's accordingly pricey . Really good cocktails . Get the Duclaw Sweet Baby Jesus if they have it on draft - peanut butter chocolate stout .
Amazing whiskey selection and very well crafted cocktails . Nice gem in CH.
Very cool place to hang out during the summer since it feels cozy inside and open when they open those humungo window
Best cocktails in Chapel Hill . The only place that might equal it in mixology prowess is LaPlace in Hillsborough.
The El Diablo Sanrisa is beautifully well balanced between sweet and a spicy . And it's delicious!!
This place is awesome. Has a great Old Fashioned. If anyone asks, you're a member. Forgot to foursquare check in when I was here last week.

Great great place. Order yourself a drink and play a few games of pool. If someone is playing the piano, buy em a drink.
Both the Jefferson's and Jefferson's Rye pair well with a game of pool. Play for a shot of Pappy Van Winkle !
Imbibe Magazine listed the Crunkleton as having one of the Best Whiskey Offerings in the South in their March/April 2011 Southern Issue.
Get the "Pink Drink" in October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Gary donates the cost of each drink to Lineberger Cancer Center.
Blood and Sand is a cheaper (but delicious) option if you like an Old Fashioned or a Manhattan
Barrel aged negronis = maybe greatest thing in life ever. Worth the price, if you enjoy having your mind blown.
Just get an old-fashioned or a sazerac . You'll leave happy. Also talk to Ant if you like music :):)
Let bartender Sam take care of you. He's good looking and makes fab drinks. Tip him well too!????
Everything here is great!
Best drinks in town . True artisans of craft drinks.
Nice atmosphere, feels very "private" in comparison to the college bars with the loud kids
Very fancy atmosphere, friendly bartenders , and strong drinks .
High class ambience. Live piano player . This is a nice place to take a lady to have fun and not look like another frat boy. Dark lighting means she might think you're better looking than you really ar
Drinks are fabulous, and bartenders are always fun.
Great cocktails , fascinating artwork.
Have Christian make you a chocolate orange-inspired concoction . It's out of this world...
Put this place on you list of places to go.
They now have a cocktail menu ... try something Gary invented, and use it to wash down the spicy peanuts !
Get a Boulevard, either the Tank 7 or the 80 Acre.
Get the bartender's choice . Nathaniel Wescott will read your mind!
This place is friendly and gorgeous. Give it a try.
The elderflower sour is delicious!
Pappy son.

The singapore sling is done right here! Best drink ever.
A proper Moscow Mule

The Australian bartender is one of the coolest people I've ever met.
Good cocktails
To go out here is a nightmare. Only 2 bartenders and they're five deep? Really? I can appreciate a busy bar , but it's tough to wait 30 minutes to even close your tab.
They make a great Old Fashioned!
Gary the bartender is top-notch.
Comfy good
Watch out, low carolina drink prices aren't a thing here.
Try the peanuts . They're awesome. And hit up the free pool table .
Make sure they don't give you their homemade brown tonic.
Fun to come here and watch games with friends, split a pitcher on a hot day and live it up outdoors. Otherwise it's too fratty for me. - APA
