State of Beer

Awesome place with a bunch of different beers in cans. there is also beer on tap. I also love an appetizer with cheese, pickles and sausage; for me it’s a “European appetizer.” Cool atmosphere and music from the record player

We were flying in and out of Raleigh so I looked up a couple of breweries to check out. This one was so cool!! They had the largest selection of bottled/canned beer I've ever seen plus their own on draft. Pretty cool to pick out your own can and specific style you like. We also ordered a yummy sandwich with a delicious side. I had a chicken sandwich, can't remember the name but I posted the menu so you'll be able to see it there. I wish it would have had more veggies on it. My hubby had the Italian type one and enjoyed it but wished it was bigger. I had the garbanzo beans, cucumber & tomato side and it was so good. The bartenders were so nice as well! I highly suggest this place!!

Friend took me here for lunch. Beer was good as was the service. The sandwiches were delicious!!! Wide selection of brew on tap and many more in cans.

I love this place. The staff is so friendly, courteous and helpful. The sandwiches are always delicious and the rotating beer has something for everyone. Thanks SOB for being you

An extremely good collection of the beers. Highly recommand the local brewery. I bought four pale ale by LBC and they are really good.

Great selection for a bottle shop. Unique beers on tap. But they also have arguably some of the best sandwiches in the area. You won’t be disappointed. I have had multiple and haven’t had one that’s not excellent.
Outdoor seating is great! With sails to provide shade.
The vibe is relaxing and enjoyable with vinyl providing the music indoors and out.
Bathrooms are small and clean.
They also have a Citrix bike rack right outside the shop.

Great service, our bartender was very cool and friendly, good beer and tasty food. It’s not a place for dinner, but you can easily get good sandwiches here, and won’t be disappointed. The hummus needs a little bit more seasoning though.

Best sandwiches in Raleigh! We come here once a week for lunch and while the food is great, the selection of beer is terrific and the staff is always kind and wonderful! I highly recommend.

Amazing wine selection with all of the smaller wine makers. Beer is great and love the records always playing. Very happy about them having a labeled vegan option. I got the My Boy Kirk and it was okay. Would like to see some other vegan options from here!! The staff is great. Will always return!

Great place. The staff, beer, and food were all on point. We enjoyed the ambiance and relaxed style. The bar staff were very engaging and were not short on recommendations. They knew their stuff! The outside patio was also a great place just to gossip and watch the world go by.

A treasure trove of good and obscure brews line the walls here. Instantly one of me favorite bottle shops/pubs in Raleigh. The venue has a cozy feel, while the beers on tap offers to finish your night the right way. They also serve a light menu. What more could you want?

Ok so I consider myself somewhat of a sandwich aficionado: subs, wraps, paninis... "you name it! 🙌". The "Smoke on the Water" was the best sandwich I think I've ever had. I mean, off the top of my head, I can't name a better one. If the ingredients sound good, please do yourself a f(l)avor and try it. P.S. the pasta salad is freakin delicious. It has a thick sun-dried tomato base that packs a lil kick on the back end of the rotini noods. State of Beer AND Sandwiches!!!

Amazing sandwiches, salads, charcuterie. Wine selection is excellent, beer is exceptional. They play music from their vinyl player so cool. There's a Foosball table. You can buy a bottle of wine and drink it there. Always bring our dog and sit outside. Great staff. One of our favorite Raleigh staples.

Groovy spot! Nice staff, and they promote local artists!

What a great spot! A superb draft selection, fantastic atmosphere, and astoundingly good sandwiches make it hard to beat. Definitely worth checking out!

Definitely one of our favorite places for a beer since moving to the area. They always have an amazing beer list, and bottle shop. Plus they're always playing some great records. Think we've heard Weezer (Blue album and Pinkerton only!) almost every time we've been there.

Haven't been here in a few years, but I might be coming more often now! Had a delicious salad, and there's plenty of options for drinks that aren't beer: wine, seltzer, delta 8 and cbd drinks, and kombucha. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, too

Excellent selections on tap and packaged, great service, and really good food. Definitely worth a visit.

Quaint! This place is chill, good music and good vibes. The beer and wine selection are more than most places in the area. Staff is really friendly and you never feel rushed there. Oh and that cheeseboard board 👌🏽

Cute little place to buy a good variety of wine and beer to take home, or order a sandwich and food at the bar to go with a draft.
