Great Food.. much better than you would expect from a "watering hole " Great atmosphere.. good local beers .. but very limited indoor seating!

Brianna Hales

Tuesday night they have half priced wings and they are AMAZING. Great beer selection . I've also heard they are expanding soon which is much needed considering the place is a little cramped.

Al Jacob

Best bar in hillsborough. Food is awesome. And now I just learned you can get the wings naked after years of wing devouring here. Just made this place even better. Oh yeah, Try the BLT salad .

Michael Snipes

It's always a great adventure when I go to the Wooden 5. Check out the board for food specials and always put the wings in your rotation!

Sabina B.

Can’t go wrong with the Steakhouse Burger . Great hot wings as well .

Bennie Mac

Fried pickles are the best ever... great staff .. falling in love with this place!!

Gabi Tesoro

Their old bay spiced edamami is unbelievably good! Just the right amount of heat to make them tasty with a hint of burn.

Jake Smith

This is the beard mecca of the Carolinas. If you got a sweet beard, you have to show it off here while eating the Bison Burger .

Heather Bailiff

Draught beer , bison burger , tater tots , southern food , great bartenders , bourbon .

Lloyd Miller

Great beer selection . It's like a bottle shop with food.

Kris Jordan

Get the Breakfast Burger . One of the best, most unique burgers in the triangle. Warning: it's big.

Tom

Great place on Friday nights. If the temps are warm sitting outside at the new tables is the way to do it!

Erich Jolicoeur

Beer and or whiskey . if you like good versions of both that's all you need to know

Dawn McCormack

Great place to grab a table outside , enjoy a drink and watch the world go by.

Andrew Bajwa

What a wonderful local watering hole . Been there many times. I will go back many times.

Will Sigmon

Wings were fantastic. The onion rings were tasty, but bready / soggy. I would probably ask for them to be extra crispy .

Marcel Claxton

The Bison Burger is the best burger I've ever eaten. Period.
