Arguably the BEST restaurant in Raleigh, and even though the wait might be long (they don't take reservations!) it is ALWAYS worth it. Plus the outdoor seating and excellent cocktails always makes the wait go faster.

Speakeasy in the heart of Raleigh at Moore Square! Everything about this place is fun, from the velvet rope and doorman to the steps that lead you underground and through a maze of corridors before you arrive at a grand carved out space that leads to the best outdoor patio in Raleigh.

Recently re-named The Village District, this area was built the same time as our townhouse and remains the go-to shopping and dining destination for Raleigh. Our favorite dining spots include: Tazza (farm to table), Cantina 18 (TexMex), and The Village Drafthouse (burgers and beers). But that just scratches the surface! The Village District is also home to a Starbucks with arguably the best patio in all of Raleigh (you can see the Raleigh skyline from there), Fresh Market, Harris Teeter, Walgreens and of course the amazing and much loved Village Library. Don't forget to do some shopping! From outdoor gear at The Outdoor Provision Company to fancy dress at Kannon's they have it all, and best of all it's a delightful 5-minute stroll from the townhouse!

Live music
Do you like live music? Partial to jazz and songstresses and smoky quartets with martinis and whisky neat? This place is for you (and anyone else for that matter, check out their website if you don't believe me!) https://www.cgracebar.com
Located on Glenwood South, this is a very easy 5 minute drive from the townhouse!
Hot tip: Get there by 7:30 on a Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday to get a table. On weekends the music starts later...but you should still arrive by 7:30 if you want a good seat!
