Since its 2022 opening, Fenton has hit the ground running — creating a mixed-use space featuring apartments, restaurants, retail shops + more — and has continued expanding with the addition of lifestyle spaces.

The $850 million mixed-use complex has 12 eateries, 20 retailers, an apartment complex, ~200,000 sqft of office space, and five entertainment establishments. One of the main attractions is Sports & Social, a two-level, multi-use sports bar that features a gaming area + social lounge and a 30-foot high-definition LED TV.

Some of the eateries include AVA Rooftop and Bar, a rooftop restaurant offering craft cocktails, wine and Mediterranean-inspired small plates + Carriage House Coffee, a mobile coffee truck serving crafted beverages like a Butter Beet Latte.

Coming soon

But, the fun has only just begun. Jewelry retailer Kendra Scott plans to open this fall as the third store in the Triangle — expect the brand’s signature Elisa necklaces and more chic pieces. Chef Scott Crawford’s Crawford Brothers Steakhouse will also open this fall and promises a steakhouse experience with flair. Featuring a “glass curtain,” a custom cooking suite, and a vibrant cocktail bar, the 4,500 sqft venue will combine classic charm with modern luxury.

Additional retailers to come

  • Brewery Bhavana a brewery, flower shop, bookstore + Chinese restaurant.
  • Doc B’s Restaurant, a casual + American-style restaurant.
  • Vega Vitality, a wellness and aesthetic medspa featuring microneedling, laser, facials, and chemical peel services.

Mainsail Lodging & Development plans to build a seven-story, 186-key hotel over the next two years. The unnamed hotel will mark Mainsail’s first in NC and will likely break ground in early 2025, pending the Town of Cary’s approval.
