Downtown Raleigh Food Information
Downtown Raleigh hosts a number of convenient and tasty dining options within walking distance of the Raleigh Convention Center. Recent additions include Jimmy Johns and Shish Kabob, all right outside the convention center, plus a McDonald’s a few blocks away. Check out Downtown Raleigh Restaurants & Dining map for specific restaurant locations. You can easily get around Raleigh with the R-line, a FREE circular, hybrid electric bus system which can get you to many restaurants.
Raleigh Convention Center Food Policy
The Raleigh Convention Center has a No Outside Food policy. You will not be able to bring food into the RCC. Only specialty foods (such as Pocky and Ramune) will be sold in the Dealer’s Room. You can eat food in your hotel room and in public places (such as the open area in front of the Progress Energy Center) provided you do not litter or leave a mess. If you order food, please have your food delivered to your hotel instead, as pizza places won’t deliver to the Raleigh Convention Center.
