I'm over in Durham and have been since 2016. It's still pretty... Lisbon-y overall, but Flux, Little River, Eastcraeft, Brewer's Barbers and Olive Pit are diamonds in the rough.

Also, Frank's (the pub in the old Moxie store) is inexplicably busy all the time despite my personal distaste for them. It seems wildly popular amongst townies and the over 50 crowd. They have done tons of events over on the lot where the Worumbo Mill was so I'm happy for their success. Hopefully the town turns that space into a nice little park so the community can continue to actually enjoy their own waterfront for a change.
