TRU is one of my favorite spots in Chapel Hill. It offers a wonderful overall experience with delightful staff, a welcoming atmosphere to all, and delicious food and drinks at an affordable price. I'm always impressed at how TRU can keep its prices low with such fresh ingredients. TRU has a laid back and beautiful atmosphere that is always inviting and accessible to everyone, whether inside at the nice wood carved tables or outside on the open patio. It's not intimidating like other wine bars can be and offers food and drinks at price points more accessible than other restaurants in the area. To call TRU classist is simply laughable, given how they've made such an effort to keep their prices low when others in the area have not. And I think we can all agree that ordering online is not some challenging novel experience -- it's 2022, y'all. We've been doing this for years across so many aspects of our lives and it's become a convenient system for most. I love going to TRU and always have a great experience here, whether food, drinks, or both. With a great atmosphere, affordable food and drink, and inviting staff, I know I'll keep coming back.
The best sandwiches with great choice of ingredients. You could put in anything and it always ends up tasting good. Must try in chapel hill, the restaurant has a cozy atmosphere as well.
I used to love going to TRU, but it hasn’t been worth it since that new ordering and payment system was put in place. I kept trying because I love TRU, but the system is so difficult, I’ve just walked out and gone to other bars four out of the last five times I’ve tried. One time, I forgot my password to the ordering platform and couldn’t make a new profile because you can only have one profile per card. One time my phone was out of battery. Last night, I easily got a seat at the bar, but the software said it was going to be a 45 minute wait. I was looking right at the bartender right in front of me, but I couldn’t ask for a drink from him. Very frustrating and unnecessary system.
The place was very nice. The meal with wine was pricey but it was worth it, the roast beef was excellent and wow, the selection of sauces was amazing. I randomly put random assortments of things and it tasted very good, compliments to the kitchen over me concocting some strange sandwich combo. I’m not sure if it would be a regular occurrence since the price was steep and I come to believe that Covid has bumped the prices compared to last year but that holds true to several places on franklin. Overall it was an excellent meal and enough so to justify the price, but don’t come in expecting a bargain of any kind.
Had my last drink at Tru last night. The app makes for an impersonal experience with the staff who was very nice as we tried to get the app to work and limits the bar entirely to what’s listed on the app. For example, I wanted a simple drink - a French 75, which is gin + Prosecco + lemon juice … the bar has the ingredients, but it’s not in the app, I couldn’t order it. Again the bartender was apologetic, but his hands were tied as that was the only point of sale available. Husband wanted an old fashioned but again, not possible here any more. The app is logical for food but created such a complicated system to get a cocktail that we didn’t really want.
We have been here before but our last experience was the worst. We walked up to the bar that was 80% empty and ordered beers. The bartender told us we would have to order online. This has never happened before but ok, whenever, so we do. I typed in our entire beer order online, entire my credcard number, expiration date, code, etc. all while the bartender just stands there hanging out doing nothing and the app doesn’t register anything. I ask the bartender for help and she says oh yeah this has happened a lot lately. So she takes my phone and enters everything again. Entered my card number and info again. And in all of this time she could have already just poured our beers and swiped my card at least 2-3 times. But nope. Still ordering on the phone. To each his own but just seems a little lazy to me. Service was much better at the bar when a bartender just asked for my order and got my beer. This was Annoying.
Really like this place, but there are not really any vegetarian options. I wish their were plant proteins like tempeh, tofu, beyond meat, tofurkey etc. Even mozzarella would be nice so you could make a caprese sandwich. Love the cocktails though and staff is great.
Really disappointed with the ordering system here. I find it frankly classist that their system relies upon people having smartphones and cards. Many cities are banning card-only businesses because it creates an unnecessary barrier for people who may not have bank accounts. I know it’s probably to save money, but I’m sure they also don’t mind that lower income folks can’t access their bar…
Best place to have a laid back meal with your friends. Your order is completely customizable and is done online so you don’t have to call anyone over or go to the bar for a drink. Sandwiches are always very solid. You can just sit wherever as soon as you walk in. Staff is always extremely nice!
I used to love this place, but since they've gone solely to the app ordering it's just not the same. I watched three different groups leave when no one came to their table. Not everyone know you have to use the app to order. Signs need to be on every table.
