in Durham today, March 17th. Jaguar Ballera, a popular entertainment spot in Raleigh, shed its doors this week. The place combined duck pin bowling, foosball, darts and upscale pub grub with self-serve beer, cocktails and wine taps. It was one of the biggest draws in the Raleigh ironwards development. The closure came without much fanfare, just as signed on the door blaming unexpected issues. A former worker confirmed it was permanent. The spot had only been open for just under two years, launched by a Denver restaurant tour with a menu heavy on smoked meats and Mexican flavors from A. Former Top Chef Contestant. Fans and locals are bummed, as the team called it, a tough call and thanked everyone for the memories. No big social media post or official word followed, leaving some in the dark. This leaves a huge 23,000 square foot gap in ironworks, a hot spot for food lovers with places like Burrito, Little Ray and PonySaurus already thriving.

Meanwhile, the area is still buzzing with more openings ahead, including Mammy Norris comeback and Lewis Barbercue's Raleigh debut. The eater tame and craze might be slowing, but ironworks keeps growing. This story is shared with support from our sponsor. Headphones in a pillow. Once you try it, it just makes sense. S-O-L-I.
