Progress is one of the best body piercing shops in North Carolina hands down. A knowledgeable staff, an immaculate shop and great customer service makes for an amazing experience every time I go. When I first walked through the door my lobes were at 10 gauge and I had a minor infection. Seth, the owner, instantly knew what was going on and told me exactly what to do to get it cleared up. He had no problem answering all my questions and informing me about proper aftercare and stretching techniques. The service I received was above and beyond anything I expected, he even emailed me a week later asking me to come back in so he could check my progress. He didn't have to do any of this since he didn't perform the piercing but he was looking out for my best interest the whole time. Well a year later my ears are at 3/4” and are doing awesome. I recently had my second branding done and I’m happy to say it turned out amazing. I will be a loyal customer of Progress for the rest of my life. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants the best body piercing possible. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.  More Reviews

We decided to try Points East Pub after the recommendation from the Shepherd Express. The wings were very good; they were a dry rub barbecued style as opposed to the typical saucy fried type. We went on a Wednesday night, and the wait was relatively long, but overall definitely worthwhile.  More Reviews
