The Kraken - Chapel Hill

This local dive bar has a welcoming atmosphere with friendly patrons, fantastic owners, and a great vibe. I really appreciate the outdoor seating and the campfire. I've visited several times and have enjoyed the live music as well. I absolutely love this place!

Few local bars have as much character as this one, and none can match its history. If you’re in the area, you must stop by, even if just to see the place. They also host live music from time to time, making it a great spot to unwind after a long week of work.

This gem of a dive bar is located away from the usual tourist spots. They frequently feature fantastic live music.

Friendly bartenders offer mixed drinks, straight liqueurs and a large selection of both filled and on-tape beers in a cozy, comfortable environment with a free pool table and an intimate stage setup with a many number of local shops, including a well-equipped outdoor terrace close to smoking. excellent decoration, a high quality sound system and comfortable vintage chair and stool are just some of the highlights! for wheelchair users and disabled: there are ramp access, but call them or bring them to help them navigate or press them, the building is older, so that there is a little tricky depending on the size and radius of rotation of their chair (especially if they have a phobic, electric chairs)
