Brewery Bhavana will open its second location in Cary at Fenton on Friday, April 18.

The original space features a brewery, with craft beer, dim sum - known as traditional Chinese small plates, a flower shop and a bookstore in what the restaurant is calling “a living room for the city.”

The second location builds on the original’s creativity, with tons of natural light and a focus on 5th-century art. Behind the bar, there’s a hand-painted mural of the Garden of Eden and overhead, lush greenery - which is inspired by the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, creating a serene, greenhouse-like atmosphere.

The new 2,000-square foot venue offers 46 seats indoors with a full bar, an outdoor bar, a beer garden and coolers with to-go cocktails and growlers for guests to enjoy in Fenton’s social district.

To celebrate the grand opening, the Cary location will debut limited-edition beers, including:
- Baltic Porter (9.1% ABV) - A robust, malty brew with notes of dark fruit and subtle roast.
- Weizenbock Lager (8.2% ABV) - A strong, dark wheat beer with a rich flavor.
- English Strong Ale (8.5% ABV) - Complex and bold with malty richness.
- Belgian Golden Strong Ale (6.9% ABV) - Bright and spicy, like a younger sibling to the beloved Bloom (minus the cardamom).
- Raspberry Stout (7.3% ABV) - A decadent stout layered with chocolate and dark fruit.
- Dunkel Lager (5.5% ABV) - A smooth, dark lager with balanced malt and a clean finish.

In addition to adding to the lineup of new beers, Brewery Bhavana introduces a new THC-infused beverage, Culti, with flavors of black tea, lemongrass, hibiscus, lemon and grapefruit zest.

Initially, Fenton’s menu will be the same as the Raleigh location, featuring dumplings, eggrolls, and steamed buns. However, later this year, executive chef Chun Shi will create unique options for Cary - focusing on a lighter healthier fare.

“We’re thrilled to bring the spirit of Bhavana to Cary,” said Patrick Woodson, co-founder and sole owner of Brewery Bhavana. “This new location lets us celebrate everything people love about our original space, while embracing a fresh, garden-inspired vision that’s unique to Fenton.”

You can try these new creations at 850 Lower Garden Lane, across from Arhaus and beside The Allison luxury apartments.

This location will be open for lunch and dinner from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., Sunday through Thursday, and will be open until 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.
