The Blue Horn Lounge

"Walked by this place a million times, and I finally stopped in for a beer. It’s a small, warm bar. There’s an okay variety of beer and liquor, nothing fancy. I’d probably stop by again, but not too often. Can’t imagine that place busy, though. You’d be a sardine."

"Bartender took a very long time to acknowledge me he was to busy flirting and chatting waited almost 10 minutes for him to even ask my order when there were only 3 other people in there and when he finally did he was very short. He acted very much under the influence I have lived in chapel hill a very long time and use to love this bar but I will not be giving them any business I believe his name was telon extremely unprofessional and just looked thrown away even though it was a Monday there is still no excuse my drink was not what I asked for instead looked like he disregarded anything I said and made his own. Worst experience I have ever had at any bar on Franklin"

"I have gotten about 5 or 6 different drinks from here, and they’ve always been good, but my God, Talon is the END ALL BE ALL of Bartenders. From the OG drinks to variations to personal creations, Talon is by far one of my favorite humans I’ve had the pleasure to interact with and he just happens to serve great drinks at this bar. Regardless of who is serving you, prepare for a good time. But if you have Talon serving you… have fun !!!"

"Looking in from the sidewalk, this bar reminded me of several bars in NYC and that's when we realized we needed to stop in for drinks after our show. Unfortunately, when we returned the bar was quite full and very much focused on the UNC basketball game, so we pulled up to the stools along the window and ordered our drinks. Although room is tight, it was a comfortable and friendly environment, they even had an extensive selection of games, to include many board games. The bartender was an absolute sweetheart and didn't skip a beat. We finally saw a vacancy at the bar continued drinks from there. This great little neighborhood bar makes it easy to sit and meet new people, play a few games and enjoy a few drinks, what more could you ask for? Cheers!"

"An amazing experience on so many levels. Best dive in chapel hill. Upon walking in, this bar feels like “home”. And Zane made us feel like family. Zane went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and appreciated to be there. The selection is amazing and his recommendations were on point. In fact, I wish I lived here just so I could be a regular. I have traveled extensively and consistently and it’s rare to find a place that just *feels* so right, but this is the place, and Zane is one of the best bartenders I’ve come across in my past 10 years of traveling seeking a genuine “dive”. He not only was my bartender, I literally can now call him a friend because of the exceptional, friendly service. Would visit chapel hill again just to come back here."
