Very cute, cozy Pub in Downtown PineHurst. The Drum has a great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and delicious pub food. We stopped in early when they opened ( 11am ) and werr immediately seated. We ordered Burgers, which were all cooked perfectly and amazingly tasty. My son had Chicken tenders and Fries - home made and very yummy. Great selection of beers on tap and a very well stocked bar. Seating was available both inside and outside. Definitely well with a visit !
Husband and I went to dinner here tonight while we were in town and will definitely be back! The atmosphere itself is great and so cozy. Snickerdoodle cocktail was amazing, food was fantastic and service was as well! Our server Victoria was great - really appreciate that she made sure we had everything we needed, gave us great suggestions and also never rushed us! I’m a slow eater so I’m used to servers coming with the check after my husband is done eating 😂, but here we weren’t rushed out! The homemade ranch was a 10/10 too - thank y’all and happy holidays!
Stopped in for a quick hot drink and dessert. Dessert was excellent and enjoyed the drink as well. I saw other meals pass by me…they looked fantastic! I will definitely be back to try some of the main dishes. Atmosphere was casual and friendly. The bartender on Memorial Day weekend (Sat) was personable and made great suggestions! I plan to be back soon!!!
Our waitress Hailey was extremely personable and overall she did such a great job - she made the experience (would be wise to promote her). I brought my mom here while she was visiting and she absolutely loved it. Very cool atmosphere and excellent drinks. Drum & Quill is a pub that makes you feel like you’re at home.
Cold drinks, good food, and live music makes for a great atmosphere. Hailey was our server, and she was awesome — friendly, quick, and kept the laughs coming. Highly recommend.
Stopped here on the last day of the Masters to watch DeChambeau and McILROY tee off on one of their 5 TV’s placed around the small interior area. It was busy, but some how we managed an indoor table without a wait.
Had a burger, dining companion had tacos. Burger was great, companion said tacos were good as well. Waitress recommended both of those dishes. She was excellent, very personable and efficient. She overheard my dining companion mention upcoming college graduation and gave us a slice of cheesecake (also delicious) on the house. Decent whiskey selection and can pour over large cubes. Would absolutely go back again.
Cheerful service and delicious food. I liked that there were a couple of vegan options - the portobello tacos were excellent!
If you love golf, good food, or a well stocked bar - this place has something for you.
