What People Are Saying About Mitch's Tavern

In Short – Paneled in dark wood, this comfy retreat is a great spot after a long day of classes across the street at NC State, or for meeting up after work or softball. Come as you are--you'll fit in just fine. And as for that sense of deja vu? Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins drank here in "Bull Durham." The laid-back atmosphere is accompanied by a good selection of beers and a full bar.

This place is awesome
by dvspindler
The staff is really friendly, the food is great, and the prices are totally reasonable. Also, they have TONS of beer on tap. The tavern looks small when you first walk in, but it's actually pretty big. The feel of the place is classically tavern-ish, from creeky wood floors to dim lighting. Also, they don't play loud music, which is nice because you can actually go there to chat with your compatriots. The food is always fresh and they have an interesting menu with Greek and American classics, like grape leaves or a turkey Reuben. Awesome place. Check it out.
- Pros: Yummy food, good prices, friendly staff, cool ambiance
- Cons: Sometimes so crowded that you can't get a table

Owner only money driven
by teach4nc
Yes, the place has a history. But I've known two people to work there...and the owner is only concerned about how much money goes into his pockets. This bar could be awesome if he made little changes. Check out the state of the carpet--a total safety hazard but he's uninterested in making the atmosphere more safe because of the money it would take. Also, have you ever seen the sanitation grade? So...drinks are fine, but I wouldn't eat there if I were you!! Also, it's non-smoking now last I heard.
