A 247-cap room above Martin Street with floating walls and two decades of Raleigh's best, weirdest bookings. Take a chance on a band you've never heard of — that's the point.

The basement hideaway under Kings — custom cocktails with handmade syrups, DJs late, karaoke on Wednesdays. You go down for one drink and surface at 2am.
