Pharmacy Bottle Beverage

Pharmacy Bottle + Beverage is a beer and wine shop in the old Mitchell’s Pharmacy building on East Chatham Street in Cary, and it is a place to drink as much as a place to buy. The draft list changes often enough to be worth checking before you go.

Wine drinkers are looked after as well, with a good number of bottles available. It is the kind of downtown Cary spot where people turn up without a plan and stay a while, which is roughly what the owners ask for: come in and hang out.

What to know

• Sixteen taps are kept on rotation.
• The selection of cans and bottles is drawn from breweries all over the country.
• A food truck is featured at the shop, and the one on duty changes.
• What is pouring and which truck is coming are both posted, so people can check first.
