Nerd Escape Room Raleigh

117 Glenwood Ave, Raleigh, NC 27603, USA
(919) 551-4090

This is our favorite escape room in Raleigh. We've already done all of the rooms, and we would recommend any of them if this is something you're into!

ParTee Shack

5300 Fayetteville Rd, Raleigh, NC 27603, USA
(919) 670-2980

This is our favorite mini golf place. They have really cool courses and an arcade inside! It's definitely worth checking out if you're staying nearby.

Crabtree Valley Mall

4325 Glenwood Ave, Raleigh, NC 27612, USA
(919) 787-8993

Crabtree is our main mall here in Raleigh. It doesn't compare to the Mall of America, but it's big enough to get lost in for a few hours if you so desire!

Crossroads Plaza

213 Crossroads Blvd, Cary, NC 27518, USA
(833) 800-4343

Crossroads is a cute place in Cary that's right outside of Raleigh and not far from Moncure/Sanford. They have a strip mall there with lots of common stores. Interestingly enough, they also have a Duluth Trading Co. there! It's a good place to waste time when you're bored.

Esteamed Coffee

114 S Academy St, Cary, NC 27511, USA
(919) 650-3470

This coffee shop only hires people with special needs. It's really cute and very wholesome! This is close to the Raleigh area.

La Dolce Vita Pizzeria

226 Carthage St, Sanford, NC 27330, USA
(919) 777-5277

This is one of Lily's family's favorite local restaurants. It has great Italian food, and the best gluten-free pizza around if you eat gluten-free! We'd recommend trying it while you're in town in you're staying in Sanford.

S & T's Soda Shoppe

85 Hillsboro St, Pittsboro, NC 27312, USA
(919) 545-0007

This is our local ice cream shop in Pittsboro (about 17 minutes from the venue). It's a Pittsboro favorite, so Lily highly recommends checking it out at some point during your stay!

More Eating Out...

We have a lot of good restaurants down here. People down here LOVE to eat, so honestly, the restaurants are some of our best attractions. Some more recommendations include (but aren't limited to):


- Amedeo's Italian (Raleigh)

- Burger Village (Raleigh)

- Bojangles (popular southern fast food, could be worth checking out if you're from up north)

- BJs (Cary)

- Carolina Brewery (Pittsboro)

- Cracker Barrel (also easy to find down here and a good experience for someone from the north)

- Red Robin (Cary)

- The MOD (Pittsboro)


... And more! Bottom line, try lots of food while you're down here. Haha!
