  The Stockroom at 230 occupies the second floor of the historic Carolina Trust Building on Fayetteville Street in the heart of downtown Raleigh.

At 4,748 square feet, the room combines exposed brick walls, warm hardwood floors, and lofty lattice ceilings strung with market lighting. Expansive windows bring in natural light throughout the day, while a floor-to-ceiling chalkboard wall and a handcrafted live-edge wooden bar give the space its character.
