Passing through the area, the nights stop seems to involve a brewery. Good policy, no??
Vecino popped up and offered food as well as beer. And here we are.
Parking, just go to the deck. Free. Busy stop on a Saturday night.
Walked in and found where the tour bus guys were, playing at Vecino. We enjoyed their choice of tunes, as it seems did everyone.
It’s a nice large space, in and out, tables were full but grabbed two bar seats, perfect.
Nice beer menu, Lots of Haws Brewing stuff, not sure what’s in house, I didn’t ask, but the choices were good. I enjoyed my beer, had a few tasters as well. All was good. Beer is a personal thing, so roll your own on that.
We had chips and salsa to start. The salsa was different, a bit thicker, very scoopable, saves your shirt, well mine anyway.
I went with the chicken sandwich. Made with a thigh. Hmmm I thought. The thigh is definitely tastier than a breast I’ve heard. So I tried it.
Well I’ll tell ya, THE best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had. Lol. And I’ve had a few. The in house pickles. The topping. The brioche. Good.
I raved so much the kitchen manager came out. Lol. That was a fun chat. The bar staff were attentive as well. Good...
Read moreHaw River Tap and Table has showcased their talents in renovating a brewpub into a showcase of culinary delights and a wall of fantastic local draft beers.
They have made a community hub in the center of downtown Carrboro with a dynamic gastropub styled menu of items that pair wonderfully with their world class beers.
They have plenty of space for groups to gather, TVs to see all of the sporting events. Their staff is friendly and professional.
The menu is exceptional with fresh and very well prepared products. Their totchcos are perfect for snacking. Their weekly features are all a step above your normal brewery/pub fare.
Easy parking out front and the Haw River Tap and Table is a great starting spot for your next local sporting event on campus or concert at the Cat's Cradle.
Check out all of my photos of their fare. Visit and host friends there with confidence. It is a delight having such a high quality establishment...
Read moreThis place used to be Vecino’s, and let me tell you, it is so much better now as Haw River Tap and Table! The staff is so nice, and the food is amazing. I have a high standard for food, and this place exceeded my expectations.
In January, I had the bbq sandwich and it was ah-mazing I wish I’d come back before they changed the menu! Next time I tried the fried chicken sandwich (with homemade pickles - perfect) with sweet potato waffle fries….and I’m not exaggerating when I say this is one of the BEST sandwiches I have EVER had. Truly mind blowing. The chicken was super crispy yet still very juicy, the homemade pickles were incredible, the bun was great/wasn’t dry at all which often happens, and the sauce they used just tied everything together. It was absolutely delicious.
This place is doing the most!! I...
