fine until night

by tweetthing44

I headed to Forum on a Saturday afternoon to meet up with friends to watch the game, grab a bite, and have a few drinks. The place was great until around 9ish when they took away our chairs, turned off the TVs and turned into this forced club scene. The drinks were fine all night, but once the sun went down I had to get out of there. The crowd turned pretentious and the bar-WAAYY too crowded.

  • Pros: great to watch an afternoon game
  • Cons: too crowded

Great Crowd, Hott Staff! BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!

by jsmithz

I had my birthday at Forum a few weeks ago. I reserved a table and bottles and had my name on the guest list. When I arrived at Forum I didn't have to wait on line at all, and this gorgeous blonde door girl/hostess took me to my table and introduced to me to my waitress. The service was great all night and my waitress, Chaya was really sweet and helpful throughout. The DJ was great and overall my buddies and I had a great night! Thanks Forum!

  • Pros: Good crowd, good music, hott staff
  • Cons: None that I can think of

Fantastic Birthday

by jennaspecial

What a great Birthday place. No lines, no cover, no issues. The drinks were poured strong by a very cute staff (especially the tall one), the music was great, and the space was beautiful. The bathrooms were so clean, and that is very important. Overall I really cant say enough about this place, no wonder it is so popular.

  • Pros: Service, Bartenders, Music
  • Cons: None

Phenomenal birthday

by sarah26

This place is a new find and it was the perfect place to have my birthday. All I wanted was a great place to have drinks, dance, and hang out with friends and this was it. The bartenders knew it was my birthday and treated me and my friends like having fun was all that mattered. Stress free and amazing.

  • Pros: music was great, cute bartenders, lots of space
  • Cons: not enough tina turner

Way too crowded

by Mikeb80

Forum is just way too crowded. Meathead bouncers working the line out front don't help things easier. Crowd is a young post college crowd that things they are way cooler than they are. After midnight, forget trying to get a drink. Overall, so many other better options nearby.

UNC DUKE GAME- AWESOME TIME

by jessy2930

I came here last Wednesday night to watch the DUKE vs UNC game and had a blast. The bar was filled with very nice looking people, the food was served quick and delicious (honestly way better than expected), and the selection of beers was varied and affordable. I am truly blown away by the great staff as well. I will definiately be returning to watch other games as this place is a cut above the rest.

  • Pros: TVs and proj screens, food, beers, atmosphere

Terrific Place

by dannyboy82

I went here to watch some college football this past weekend and was pleasantly surprised. They have 3 flat screens at the bar and three huge projector screens in the back lounge. The food was very reasonably priced for being so good. I had the sliders and tuna rolls and both were out of this world. Also had some good choices of beer which I did not expect. I have been here before for parties but never for a bar bar scene, but I definitely recommend.

  • Pros: Food, Screens, Atmosphere

Unbelievable Birthday Experience

by marian84

I had a fantastic Birthday experience here last weekend. All of people got in immediately, the drinks were creative and well priced, and the music was fantastic. All in all, everything that was promised! I found the crowd to be great as well, I read some of the reviews and though it might be too college aged but this was not the case. I turned 26 and was probably the average age in the venue.

  • Pros: Crowd, Music, Drinks, Everything they promised
