| - The Broken Spoke is such a great place. With two levels (main bar area downstairs, sofas and conversation group seating, along with a second bar, upstairs), there's definitely a spot that will fit your needs for an evening out. I love how everything is arranged for conversation, and the furniture is really comfy and classy. I really loved the ambiance overall. The owner, Ollie, paid very close attention to every detail, and it shows in every element of what he does, from the light fixtures to the fact that his ice cubes use the same spring water as his alcohol.
The drink list is outstanding. The Broken Spoke offers flights of whisky, mixed drinks (many made with the products The Great Wagon Road Distilling Company makes right next door, but they also serve other great NC products like Doc Porter's) that are fantastic, and craft beer.
The food is also great. The best thing I have had so far was their corned beef and cabbage for St. Patty's Day. It was the best I've ever had. Their sandwiches are also very good, and the food menu seems to change regularly. Everything is worth a try, methinks.
The Broken Spoke is constantly evolving, and they have recently added a patio area, regular live music performances, movie nights, craft beer tap takeovers, and more. I loved it when they first opened, and I love it more and more as it changes.
In short, I will be back regularly. I'm pretty sure this is my place.
