What a great concept- loved the cornhole and ping pong! Great selection of beers and pizza right next door. The outdoor space is fabulous. We reserved five tables for a party and had a wonderful evening!

Went here on an early Friday early afternoon and it was not busy at all. The bartender was very knowledgeable and helpful...the menu on the bar was detailed and gave a lot of information as well. I got the Pumpkin Spice Stout (actually, I had two!) and they were delicious! I thought $8 was a little pricey for a 10 oz pour but it was a lunch date with my husband and it was very tasty. He had a fruity IPA that he enjoyed as well. It was a gorgeous fall day so we were able to sit outside for an hour or so and enjoy each other's company. There were only a few other people there but I can imagine that this place gets packed. We checked this place out for the Bull City Beer Challenge and I'm so glad that we did! Ps. Everything including the restroom was extremely clean and the murals were very well done

This brewery is exactly our vibe! It's located in a big warehouse that they open the rollup doors and let in the fresh air, has a ton of seating, games, great merch, a pizza place next door that will deliver to your table, AND delicious beer!! We are in town visiting family and I can see why they love to come to this brewery. The staff was super friendly and welcoming and we all loved the beer that we tried. We ordered a pizza from Cugino Forno next door and they brought it right to our table. Since they have such a big location they have a ton of games and space. We sat close to the pingpong tables and there was always someone playing a game and having fun. If we lived in this area we would be at this brewery all the time. Thanks Hi-Wire for a great experience!

Food was supplied by neighboring businesses. Ice cream and pizza nearby. Service was great as my son-in-law was able to get his craft beers quickly. Selection was huge and will provide plenty of options for the seasoned beer drinker. Inside was cool and had bench/picnic table seating. There was bocce ball and ping pong as well as giant pool tables. Although there was alcohol being served, it was a chill vibe. It's also dog friendly as there was a couple that let me get my fix of their cool doggy. Would definitely go again.

While I'm not a huge beer person, I can definitely appreciate a good brewery and Hi-Wire is a favorite among my family and friends. It's spacious with a ton of seating, games and activities inside and outside to keep everyone entertained. They have a variety of beers and alcoholic slushies for the adventurous. It's family and dog friendly as well and I love that the location is right next to a pizza and ice cream shop. Great beer, good pizza and delicious icecream, what more could a person ask for?

We did a work event here, with trivia and tokens for drinks. I thought this place was a great local flavor joint with a lot going for it. The bathrooms were clean, and there was plenty of seating. I don't know how it usually works but we all went up to the bar and ordered drinks there, but maybe they do table service. I was surprised at trivia that phones weren't banned and you actually filled out your answers on a google form. This seems ripe for cheating, but I guess Durham is the kind of place where we trust no one is searching the answers. The trivia host didn't have a ton of personality, but we did move through EIGHT rounds of trivia which is also unusual! I feel like our local trivia does somewhere around 5. My secret tinfoil hat conspiracy lol is that this is to keep you at the brewery drinking! Eight rounds! They don't serve food, but you can order pizza and have it delivered from next door (I believe) or carry out the pizza into the brewery which is what we did. Ping pong tables on point! I saw at least one dog. There was plentiful parking lot parking. No complaints!

We were staying the night in the area and wanted to grab something to eat before we headed to the hotel for the night. We did a quick search and saw there was a Hi-Wire brewing in the area, which happens to brew my current favorite IPA. We also saw that Cugino Forno was next door and would deliver to the tables in the brewery, a win-win. Hi-Wire Brewing and Cugino Forno are next door to each other inside one of buildings formerly used by the Golden Belt Manufacturing Company. These buildings have a lot of history for the area. In the late 1800's, the Golden Belt Manufacturing Co. originated in a portion of the Bull Durham Tobacco Factory as an operation to produce the cloth bags in which the tobacco was sold. Now this area is a fully renovated Golden Belt Campus. We arrived at about 4:30 pm on a rainy Friday afternoon in April. Sitting outside wasn't an option and while it was already busy we were able to find a place to sit. We did notice several large tables were reserved. There are also quite a few activities, such as ping pong, bocce ball and cornhole. This is a great idea for small to large groups of people gathering to enjoy good beer. I went up to the counter to order a Double High-Pitch IPA and the servers were friendly and helpful. When I returned to the table we talked about how we didn't realize that Hi-Wire had locations outside of Asheville but we were wrong. Their website shows they are not only outside of Asheville, they are outside of North Carolina as well. We looked at their swag and really liked a few of their shirt options but the material was just too thin for my tastes, I like a heavier cotton shirt. We did purchase a 12-pack of beer and enjoyed our time at Hi-Wire.

Awesome beer as always. Love the spot in Asheville but this is a tad closer to home. Fun games such as human pool, ping ping, bocce (strangely have to be 18+ to play), table shuffleboard. Very dog friendly and you can have pizza delivered next door. Fun for the whole family.

Hi-Wire Brewing is a craft brewery in an old industrial building. The brewery and the nearby businesses give the former factory a fresh atmosphere. You can order pizza at Cugino Forno and bring it over. Afterwards you can cross the lawn to Two Roosters for ice cream. I enjoy coming here on cool evenings at sundown. You get great pictures of the old buildings against the orange sky. There are sixteen-plus taps at Hi-Wire. Find the beer that suits your taste. The staff is ready to recommend popular brews if you can't decide. There's no table service at Hi-Wire. Order your drinks at the bar. They pour for you and give you the glass. Please bus your table when you're done. Hi-Wire is dog-friendly. Want your dog to have a good time too? You can bring your pet!

We are new to the area and learned about some holiday events happening at Hi-Wire so we popped in to their Durham location. It was our first visit and we fell in love with this spacious beer den and it's wonderful vibe. I already knew about their great brews, as I have visited their Asheville location, but this location surprised me in a great way. They have a spacious, but not in an overwhelming way, brew hall with lots of seating, table tennis and other games. There are also TVs for those that wish to keep up on Sunday Football and the Soccer games. Next door they have Cugino Forno for those that would like some yummy brick oven pizza delivered to their table. Hi-Wire Durham is dog friendly and people friendly. I loved seeing parents with little ones, others on date, and friends and families having a laugh and cold one or two. I also some some pretty heated matches of table tennis. It's all very inviting. The folks behind the bar really take care of you, are super friendly, and the IPA that I ordered was perfect for my taste. Hi-Wire in Durham is certainly going to be added to one of our Faves.
