The Raleigh Times Bar

The building and space are just awesome. It's almost like eating in a Raleigh museum (plus some cool Belgian beer things). The service was excellent and they were very accommodating with our stroller and kid at lunch. We had the chicken strips and devils on horseback. The strips were crispy and tasty. They were very filling for the price. The devils on horseback were delicious!

We stumbled upon Raleigh Times during a bluegrass festival and part of the festival was in the street next to it. We walked by and the food we saw looked stellar O we decided to grab lunch here. We sat inside, but the windows were open so it was as if we were half inside half outside.Service was super attentive even though they started to get extremely busy. Waters were always refilled, that kind of thing. We got a southwest salad and the chicken tenders - tossed in honey jalapeño - my husband and I cut up the tenders to put in the salad and split both. So delicious and filling! Their fries and ranch were also perfect for the meal.They didn't mind that we took our time and enjoyed some drinks while the festival was happening. We didn't stay too long to be respectful considering how busy it was getting, but we weren't rushed at all.A great lunch!

Very cool atmosphere! Loved the rooftop and all the levels. Great beer selection. Sadly, this the the first stop of the day, so we just had a beer and enjoyed the scenery from the roof - no food ... which upsets a fat man like me! Their food looked great - next time, we'll hit this place and have beer and wings! The service was great ... super friendly and knowledgable. Really enjoyed this place.

It's just delightful to see a quaint bar with brick walls. The server was very helpful despite him being the only one taking care of the bar as well. The food was great with lots of excellent choices to choose from. The craft beer was exquisite as well. Overall I am going back again hopefully soon

Bigger and thicker than your fingers DELISH!! Oh let me Not Forget their drinks!!!! Had an Ole Fashion Outstanding!! My daughter and her BF had their Sangria, LOVED IT and I'm not a sweet drinker type but it was SO TASTY YUMMY!! Service was very welcoming and the Ambiance was awesome! Can't wait to visit again

Legit one of my favorite places in town. Consistently delicious with unique cocktails and excellent service. Definitely a bar/restaurant environment but in an older building that's been renovated.

Looking for a place to eat and hangout in Raleigh on a weekend night, we stumbled across The Raleigh Times Bar. I enjoy the older beer hall aesthetic of the place, and it's got a good location right around Downtown Raleigh!For food I got the Andy's Cheesesteak with Fries, it was a ton of food for $14, and being used to DC high prices, I thought this was very affordable and good portions for money! The fries were crispy, not super seasoned but nothing some ketchup/sauce can't fix. The cheesesteak itself was chocked full of steak, onions, and provolone cheese, and it was really tasty! A bit too much bread for me, and the steak could use some more seasoning, but overall it's a good cheesesteak for the price.Service was prompt and friendly, they seated us quickly on a busy Saturday night. Love the rooftop seating area, it's a nice view of the city and just lovely vibes overall.

Was here about 4 months ago July 2023Great vintage ambiance, weathered looking wood and decor (that's a good thing!)Was greeted nicely by the server, everyone was nice and welcoming The food was really tasty and menu selections were adequate. I wanted to try more but I was too stuffed!Decent place, decent prices, wouldn't mind going back if I'm ever in the areaThat's all YELPies!Enjoy!

I can't say enough great things about the food here. The jalapeño honey chicken sandwich is amazing. As are the fries, the potato chips, and the ranch dressing. We had a slice of peanut butter chocolate pie for desert thanks to the incredible waiter and it was spectacular. Speaking of the server, Brad, he was beyond stellar and frankly I haven't received service like his in a VERY LONG time. The service here, his service and those that brought out the food, is exceptional and actually applaud worthy. Overall the place is hip, it's cool, and I could help but smile when I looked up and saw a pic of the late Jimmy V! You must try this place. I'm ashamed that I've lived here for as long as I have and I've never been here. And Brad, thank you again!!!!!!! Wish I had taken pics of more than just the nachos but I ate it up.

My friends and I stopped in during our bar hopping weekend and what an awesome place this is! I love that this building is a restored piece of history that's been transformed into a place for people of all ages to get together whether it's for dinner or for drinks. We sat upstairs in the indoors area since the outside rooftop area was already full. We were greeted pretty quickly and brought waters. Since we had already been to a few other places I thought It'd be a good idea to order food. I saw the Devils on Horseback and just had to try them! Anything bacon wrapped is an automatic must for me! The combination of the bacon wrapped dates and to stuff them with goat cheese was a heavenly combination! Topped with the balsamic glaze just added to the flavor of it all! It's a pretty filling appetizer if you're just looking for something small to nosh on, or share with the table if you're planning to have dinner as well! To drink I had a Dragon Berry Mojito which had a nice balance of power and berry flavor! I have to say this is one of my favorite spots in Raleigh and I can't wait to come back.
