Nightlife

If you're looking to dance the night away, Glenwood South is the place to be. This mile(ish) long strip between the Warehouse District and Downtown is the closest thing to Miami Beach you're going to find in Raleigh. Friday and Saturday nights are filled to the brim with folks looking to have a good time. Glenwood South also offers more low key options like The Rockford, which has great food and drinks, Johnson St. Yacht Club, one of the best dives around, and Cortez, and excellent seafood restaurant.
