NoDa 101

Stopped in here with some coworkers for a couple drinks. They boast a decent selection of beers, bottles and taps, with an ample assortment of NC offerings. From my visit, I couldn't tell if they still serve the food everyone is raving about (though, it was later in the evening).

It's fairly small inside, with most seating at the bar. We didn't stay too long, but I got the impression this is a great hang out in the area. The staff that night was incredibly friendly and did a great job taking care of us. Certainly going to stop in again!

Great bar, great neighborhood, cold beer and good food.  Not a bad combination for a quick beer and bite in NoDa.  If you haven't been, swing in.  It's much better pricing than you'll find in town and it's relaxing.

If you're looking for a great hole-in-the-wall type bar, Noda 101 is one of a few in the local Noda area. Merely a room with a full bar occupying about 50% of the total available space of the building, it is very close-quartered and a great place to have a low-key hangout over a few drinks. A party of 5 is probably pushing your luck getting face time with everyone.

Although unfamiliar with the weekly drink specials and entertainment, I can tell you that on a Tuesday night you are likely to find all three- drafts on special, a PA system with radio-play, and intermittent live music by a local artist. They will usually set up their gear and play in the front corner of the bar. The volume is usually pretty average and you won't have a hard time hearing a conversation.

The crowd is pretty low key during the week, and may not be the case on a weekend. Bartenders are generally pretty friendly, and sometimes partake in conversing.

Overall, it's a pretty solid hangout joint.
