Rihanna’s concert — we mean Super Bowl LVII — is this Sunday, Feb. 12 and we’re ready to watch the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs (hey, KCtoday 👋) battle it out for the trophy. Plan ahead with these local food, drink, and watch party recommendations.
Prep your party
- Pizza: Let The Pizza Times provide you with a fun pizza party package or pre-order a massive 28-inch pie from Benny Capitale’s .
- Wings: Order wings and platters from Flying Saucer or cater your party with Carolina Ale House .
- Barbecue: Let Sam Jones BBQ or The BBQ Lab take the pressure off of cooking with their catering and to-go options.
- Drinks: Dos Taquitos offers margarita cocktail mixes to-go; just add liquor.
- Baked goods: La Farm Bakery will cater your big game gathering with football-shaped loaves, a three-ft turkey BLT sandwich, and football cookies. Place an order .
The Raleigh Mothership Platter serves 10-12 people.
