I had a great experience at Pearl & Peril! The vibe was really nice and the vodka shot was so good—super smooth. Dean was super nice and welcoming. Overall, great place and a fun spot. Would definitely recommend! ✨

Me and a friend walked in to grab a drink @11-10pm on 1-28-26 and went to separate bathrooms and was immediately kicked out for being “smart” walking and saying we’re going to the bathroom and grabbing a drink. The bartender was super rude and shouldn’t even be a bartender the way he acted and micromanaged customers willing to pay. This place goes out to be the worst place I was in and out within 20 seconds. Do not recommend, terrible staffs and weak atmosphere.

Stopped in and it was great.
The bartender was over the top kind and helped me pick my perfect drink. The vibe is fun and more of a bar vs other spots that have music that’s so loud you can’t talk. This is low key and just overall a great spot.

Pearl and Peril is a great spot! Super friendly staff, awesome atmosphere, and it’s dog-friendly. Anytime you’re downtown you should start and end your night at Pearl with a group shot ski and a selfie in front of Post Malonalisa.

This place is so fun! The bartenders are so friendly and always listen to my jokes. My favorite place on glenwood! And I barely venture out of Durham, so that means something 🙂

We’ve been coming here the last few months, at least once every other weekend. We usually like to sit upstairs by the bar. Good music, good drinks – if I don’t drink my usual titos soda splash of sprite, I like the Red Eye, and friendly staff! Plus, if you’re hungry they have bags of chips to snack on.

Between the seahorse conservation and post Malone I don’t know what’s better. Dean and Lauren, we had amazing drinks and conversation.

I don’t know what I expected, but it was just a basic hang out place. Had an upstairs with a dance floor. They had a Polaroid wall which was dope.

Randy was the best bartender. This is a really great dive bar. Come check it out.

The service here is terrible the bartender tonight with the dj clay and scootch black with white words shirt has terrible service and makes an even worse drink and gets upset if you tell him his drinks taste like flat soda his response was we sell 100’s of these and I don’t reply my husband states we can pay for the drinks and leave he mumbles under his breath we pay and he mumbles under his breath then when I took my phone out he says I can re make your drink I said don’t bother. They probably do sell 100’s of those drinks to people in there 20’s that I am not and know a good drink. Don’t water your time if you want good vibes and good drinks you get neither here.
