Nestled in the heart of Carrboro, North Carolina, Belltree Cocktail Club is a refreshing oasis for cocktail enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. This bar effortlessly combines a laid-back vibe with a tastefully curated atmosphere, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable night out.
From the moment you step inside this unassuming spot on Brewer Lane, you're welcomed into a cozy, midsized lounge that rewards those who venture past its modest exterior. The club boasts three distinct seating areas: a vibrant main bar where spirited conversations flow, a quiet upstairs nook perfect for savoring a book or intimate chat, and an additional spacious room with a bold lime-green hue adding a splash of unexpected character to the ambiance.
What truly sets Belltree Cocktail Club apart is its dedication to craft cocktails. Regulars rave about the unique, thoughtfully designed drinks, many of which are the creative brainchildren of the expert bartenders behind the bar. The Manhattan here is particularly noteworthy — a smooth, perfectly balanced classic that earned praise from visitors like Matt Clements, who called it “delicious” and paired it with attentive service and live jazz for a truly elevated experience.
The bar also offers an appealing selection of small plates and snacks that complement the drink menu beautifully. Whether you’re nibbling on the Cajun-spiced Popcorn Plate, savoring the mix of hard and soft cheeses on the Cheese Plate, or sharing the robust flavors of the Charcuterie Plate featuring prosciutto, salami, and capicola, there’s something to satisfy every craving. And for those who appreciate a little local flair, Dad's Boiled Peanuts, available in regular or Cajun style, offer a unique Southern twist.
The inclusive atmosphere, as noted by James Hall, is one of the bar’s biggest draws—attentive staff members like Zach make guests feel right at home, whether you’re kicking back with friends or meeting new people. The occasional live music, including jazzy evenings that Matt experienced firsthand, infuses the space with energy without overpowering the intimate feel. It’s a place where you can easily envision becoming a regular, immersed in Carrboro’s welcoming community.
Adventurous visitors appreciate the club’s understated exterior and spacious, comfortable interior, as highlighted by Alex Davis, encouraging others to trust their instincts and step inside. The variety of seating options ensures there is a perfect spot for every mood—whether you want to relax with a cocktail in quiet or soak up the buzz of friendly chatter.
Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Belltree Cocktail Club offers a genuinely distinctive experience. From expertly mixed drinks and thoughtfully paired snacks to an inviting atmosphere that blends casual comfort with subtle sophistication, it stands out as one of the top spots for a memorable night in Carrboro.

Great place! No frills on the outside, step in to a cozy mid-sized bar and lounge with great atmosphere with a good selection of cocktails . Zach is a personable guy; very attentive and accommodating. Good spot to kick back and make yourself a regular with your friends, or make some new ones!
Easily my favorite cocktail in the Carrboro/Chapel Hill area. The drinks are truly unique with a fair amount of them having been created by different members of the staff. Overall atmosphere is great too with a main bar room, a small upstairs “nook” great for reading, and a third room for additional seating (this room is entirely lime green, which is not my favorite personally but that’s picking nits). Will definitely be coming back!
This cocktail bar has so much space which is nice. They do not really have a front facing appearance which can make it hard to find but just trust yourself and go in. They have three main seating areas including one on a second floor. The inside was cozy. They do live music sometimes on the weekends and that does change the cozy vibe so just check ahead depending on what you’re looking for. There isn’t a parking lot so we park in a nearby deck.
What a wonderful cocktail club. They had a fantastic jazz band playing and a very nice curated draft beer program. The Manhattan was delicious and service attentive. You have to check out this local gem.
Great drinks and great bartender. Knows his stuff. . Second visit, ordered the "It's not Un-Yuzual" fantastic!
Cocktails were great, setting and ambiance are excellent. The service was a bit slow but the results are worthwhile. Enjoy!
Awesome speakeasy with a cool, friendly staff, occasional live music, and the best cocktails in town!
Very unique cocktail list with some classics and some new cutting edge recipes. The staff is very friendly. And the interior is a gorgeous green with accents of yellow! Giving 1960s mod fashion aesthetic to the place. There is even a small upstairs lounge for a more cozy vibe. There are areas you can park which is really nice as they are right off bustling Franklin St. I will say finding the place was a bit difficult as they are located in an old airplane hanger which just looks like a small warehouse. But I really appreciate the beauty of a refurbished industrial building as it holds a lot of history of the area. I will definitely go again and reccomend it to friends.
