What People Are Saying About Harrison's Bar & Grill

In Short – Televisions, neon bar signs and wooden wainscoting provide the basic bar look without a lot of frills. The space is split into two rooms, one of which has pool tables. Smoking is freely indulged, while the drafts pour to the sounds of "Space Truckin." Waitstaff in T-shirts and jeans work to keep up with the large crowd gathered to unwind. Basic pub fare includes burgers, fries, chef's salad, buffalo wings and nachos. The best bet on the menu by far is the burgers, which are large, juicy and served every way imaginable.
Editor's Tips
- Where To Sit:
- The pool table side has more of the action. It seems everyone who can't get in on a game at least likes to be a spectator.
My husband and I love This place!
by Triangle Entertainment
We've eaten here several times and the burgers are to die for. Great place for late night pool, live bands, and late night menu, and dancing! Great stage area, and we liked sitting outside on the spacious patio. You should get out here and grab a bite.
Horrible, well, EVERYTHING!

A group of work buddies and I went to Harrison's today and sat outside. Aside from having a VERY snarky waitress, whose cut-off jean shorts made her look very trashy, the food was not that great. We got a horribly bad attitude when we asked to have our bill split up, after waiting 20 minutes for our food. After I didn't finish my nasty cheeseburger, one of the waitresses came by to remove my plate. Thought that was nice, since our own waitress didn't seem to care. However, this waitress then turned around and set the plate of food on the ground to let the dog behind me (who came in with what was evidently a repeat customer) LICK the plate and finish the food! Disgusting! We definitely could have been treated better, the food could have been better, and if the waitress wanted to feed the dog, that situation could have been handled better as well. I will not be going back (glad that this was only my first time!), and I doubt that anyone from my group will be returning. It's a shame, since they all seemed to go there several times a week, too. Glad I could feed the dog.
Better off going to ANY other bar in the area.
Harrison's, good times, good food, good beer
by BobTheWriter
Harrison's is a great hangout. Kevin, the manager/bartender is great as well. Don't miss it for the good food and beer, and great atmosphere!
Great food. Great drinks. Great service.
by uncleelton
Harrison's has been a Cary favorite for over a decade now, for business lunch or for sports-time drinks -- and it's every bit as good as it ever was. The interior has been recently remodeled to complement the laid-back atmosphere. There's a dining room side with attentive service, and a game room side with pool tables, darts, and video games. Quiet lunches, "Friends" atmosphere after work, a bit wilder late at night. The perfect combination. And great food, large portions, at great prices. Highly recommended.
Over IT
by CUD
Besides the dodgy crowd that has taken over Harrison's the service is just awful. The food is too. I will no longer be patronizing their establishment. My time and money would be better spent at another sports bar near by..
