Situated between OMB and Sugar Creek, I stumbled upon the Broken Spoke with a group of friends this weekend. It's next door is the Great Wagon Distillery, which also opened at the beginning of 2016. Most importantly, the Broken Spoke will serve the vodka and whiskey the distillery makes soon! This is an awesome because in NC you can't drink at the distilleries. SCORE! What a smart idea!
When you walk into the Broken Spoke you experience a modern-romantic feel. The lights are very industrial looking and some of the chandeliers were made from beer bottles. How cool! There are two stories, both that feature bars. The downstairs is loaded with tables with candlelight and the upstairs offers huge couches and nice seating areas to hang out with friends.
Like I mentioned, they will eventually have vodka and whiskey from Great Wagon, but for now they offer a variety of local beers (omb, sugar creek, three spirits to name a few) and a full bar. The beers are a little more expensive than the other breweries ($6-$7), but the hard liquor seemed to be priced well ($5.5-$8).
Coming soon they will be serving food such as tapas so this will definitely be a place on my radar! The staff was also very friendly and spoke very highly of the bar-all 15 employees ;-)
