On Sunday, February 15 (3–11 PM), The Davie is turning Downtown Raleigh into a full-on coastal feast with a classic Oyster Roast & Low Country Boil. They’re teaming up with Oysters Carolina to serve up the freshest catch, plus live music from Michael Parker & Storm Adams starting at 3 PM.
Not just seafood—there’ll be $7 Bloody Marys and $5 Pepperoncini Shots flowing to keep spirits lively. Pro tip: come early—this is a “until it’s gone” situation.
This isn’t sponsored (we’d absolutely tell you if it was). We just respect a proper seafood spread. (Just so you know: Sponsored content in our newsletter is always marked with “*”).
