In Short – Minimalist decor is attractive and inviting for professionals enjoying a well-deserved drink after work or for kicking off a great weekend. Dine barside, at a picnic-like table with a group or outside with a prime view of passersby. The food is creative, tasty, and very reasonably priced for a hip hangout. Start with the Boomerang (spin on spinach dip), Med Bread, oysters, or hushpuppies for comfort food. Burgers, chicken or filet mignon all make good entrees.
Best Bar In Raleigh!
by duncanatrix
The Borough is probably my favorite place in Raleigh. The bar is inviting and the food is delicious (although I'm sad that they got rid of the Vizzini, which was my favorite). Their drinks menu features kitschy drinks with out-there ingredients, and I've never met a person who hated the PomBR--but they also have an extensive beer and wine list. I've never had a bad experience here.
- Pros: Excellent drinks, friendly staff
- Cons: None
Wonderful Downtown Urban Pub
by Fuzzy
The Borough is a wonderful downtown urban pub. If "Cheers" could come to Raleigh then The Borough would be it. Always welcoming and inviting, the staff, was voted the best bar staff in Wake County by The Independent Weekly. The prices are really modest for this location for both food and drink. The Brute is a mouth watering hamburger which is marinated prior to grilling and served with crispy onions on a delicious bun. I love the "Dizzy's Bent Trumpet" which is a salad prepared with pears and pistachio nuts.
- Pros: Food and Drinks Are The Best
mixed review
by jonbee
plus: cheese sandwich, the Smattering appetizer, roast beef au jus.. all the food is great, can't go wrong probably with anything on food or drink menu.
minus: smoke--- thankfully that won't be an issue as of jan 2/2009 . we'll get to gleefully watch the smokers freeze their a**es off as we sit comfortably inside, thanks to NC's new anti-smoking bill.
minus: service.. there have been lightly-attended weeknights where I swear either we're sitting in a table that nobody realizes belongs to 'their' section, or we've done something to horribly upset one or more servers as everyone on staff blithely flits, desperate to not make eye contact with us
- Pros: good food!!
- Cons: smoke , service is spotty
