We were looking for a place to wait and my wife could get some work done, we fell upon Edge City. What a find!! When you first walk in the decor is great. A lot of soft colors and light enters from the big glass windows. Also a lot of plants that my wife loved. The bartenders Will and Anna were the best. They took time to explain the beers and talk about what you like along with giving you samples. I had a flight with Thanks Ma, City Lights, For The Homies and Old Post. I enjoyed them all. We will definitely be back on our next trip.

Hazy IPA - foggy bottoms
Laura B.

Stopped into Edge City to try their brews and really enjoyed the hazy IPA. Our whole group had a few different ones and everyone liked what they had. It's a really nice/modern space with a good sized patio out front too. Everything was super clean and nicely done. Would definitely recommend adding Edge City to your brewery rotation!

Bright, open brewery with a great selection to pick from for drinks and a relaxed vibe! I had the Chili nights, and it was great. You get the heat from the chili but not overpower. Bartenders are friendly and quick to offer help or tasting. They do have some snack options available for purchase as well. Family friendly and a large patio area that would be nice in warmer weather

Great spot! We came late on a Sat night and sat outside on the patio. It's a decent sized space both inside and outside. Super clean, bright and new. I had a hazy IPA called Scratchy Records.....it was solid. In fact, I took a crowler home :) Lots of people grabbed pizza's from the place nearby. Seems like a great idea....we will do that next time!

I had never been to edge city brewery before but I really enjoyed it! The place is beautiful, it's very bright with great outdoor seating. It's dog friendly which is perfect! There isn't any food but you can hop next door and get some pizza or wings. I got the PSL sour which was really delicious. Overall I enjoyed my experience and I can't wait to go back!

What an easy going atmosphere with TV if you are someone who is looking for a place to sit and watch TV or Catch your fav team. The outdoor area is where we ended up and a sculpture graces the area with a nice sitting area (Do not take your beer to it) the outdoor seating is just in a perfect spot to catch the sun but with options if you do not want full sun. I am not the beer drinker but the wife is and she loved their IPA's and they have options for us non-beer drinkers. It is clean and modern feel and Hawthornes Pizza right across the lot, so get a pizza and come back and enjoy your beer, took about 12 mins for the pizza to be cooked. The employee's are very friendly, sort of got that Cheer's feel when you walk in. The wife liked it and so did I, Happy Wife, Happy Life!

City Secco - delish!
Lauren V.

I'm so stoked that we've got a decent brewery on this side of town now! Love the design of the space and the patio area is perfect for a nice day. I've never been much for beer, but that City Secco suited me just fine. Staff was super friendly and attentive despite the brewery being a bit busy and it appeared that all COVID precautions were being followed. Edge City Brewery, I'm glad we're neighbors!

Our dog, Sutton, is a huge Edge City fan!

We love Edge City!!! It's great to finally have a local brewery over here on the East Side, and even better that they have a fantastic selection of beers/other drinks on tap, a great vibe with plenty of comfortable seating, AND they allow dogs both outside and inside (since they don't sell food)! We love coming here in the warmer months when they have live music on the patio, and we want to try one of their trivia nights soon. You guys rock!

This brewery was probably the closest one to me, plus it's one of the newer ones I have yet to try. Inside the brewery was aesthetically pleasing. Reminded me of a greenhouse with all the plants and the color scheme really gave the interior a vibrant pop. The beer list was pretty decent. Good selection to go around. The #SquadGoals is the only sour aside of what they may have on their guest tap list. The taste was a hint of tart and easy to drink. A pretty good sour. The Day by Day was a Belgian Wheat style brew. It's different than your regular Belgian Wheat style beers. This definitely had a citrus zest added to it but a little hint of sour too. Overall it was delicious Nice brewery with some room inside and plenty of room outside. They do host some events there so check them out on Facebook. Also they don't serve food, but do have menus from Hawthorne's Pizza which is a minute walk to the building next door. Would recommend!

First time visiting ECB with a bestie and literally raining outside. What an awesome spot and the decor I absolutely loved. It felt so earthly, clean, eclectic and artsy. Unfortunately it was raining outside so we were only able to enjoy the patio area for about 5 mins so my excuse to comeback. The rain actually did me a favor since it gave me a chance to appreciate the inside mural and decor. I'm not a huge beer drinker but exceptions are made during football season. However I tend to like hefeweizen's so I ordered 2 flavors so my bestie and I could sample them. Both were good however I enjoyed his better sorry I don't recall the name. Overall great location, nice service and the inside decor was simple yet fitting.

It was a Friday night two weeks before Christmas, but it was only 5:45pm so I feel like we got lucky. We were able to walk in and be seated right away. We ordered cocktails and embraced the tapas menu, ordering too many things to sample and share. We sadly had to leave some of it behind. Our waitress was a sweetheart and though the restaurant space was big and open, the warm wood and exposed brick inside made it feel welcoming and cozy. There was enough room between tables that we didn't feel crammed in and the table was big enough to hold all the delicious goodness. I felt like two top tables can sometimes barely hold your water glass and bread plate. We head to Charlotte pretty regularly for various things, and I would like to bring our teenage boys back sometime. I think they would really like the menu and style of the restaurant. Nice enough for a quick date night before and event, but casual enough that I feel like we could bring the teens and not have to "dress up".

I do think the interior sometimes feels a bit too "open-concept," if you know what I mean... ...but who cares?! The food is great! Of the stuff that stays on the menu, I really like: the chicken sandwich, the tandoori carrots, the mussels, and the pierogis. As for the current menu: I really like the watermelon caprese salad, scallops, and curry chicken tacos.

For my sandwich I chose the turkey chipotle bacon without the tomatoes. The sandwich tasted great and the bread was toasted nicely. If I have one complaint it's that for $14.00 I think the sandwich could have been a bit bigger, or maybe I was just too hungry because I scarfed it down in an instant! Still the chips that accompanied it were a good snack and I enjoyed my meal. This is definitely a good spot to grab a lunch, I wish I had more time and I would have enjoyed the opportunity to browse their market. Matthews has a lot of great locally owned spots and this is for sure one of them.

It's one…read moreof those comfort foods I don't eat often because it's so rich--but when I see it on a menu, it absolutely catches my attention. That's exactly what drew me to The Southern Pecan in SouthPark. Here in the South, they call it country fried steak, and I'm happy to report this one did not disappoint. I met a colleague there for lunch, and everything about the experience felt easy from the start. The restaurant is located in Phillips Place, a lovely little shopping area that feels a bit polished and upscale--with shops like Orvis, Tory Burch, and even a Restoration Hardware restaurant nearby. They do offer valet parking, which is a nice touch, though honestly parking is easy enough on your own. We had reservations through OpenTable and were seated on the patio, which was absolutely delightful for this time of year in Charlotte. The weather was perfect, the setting was relaxed, and the service started off warm and welcoming right away. Now, the food. The country fried steak was beautifully cooked--crispy on the outside, tender inside, and served with creamy mashed potatoes and gravy that hit all the nostalgic notes from my Texas upbringing. I paired it with a vegetable side (I believe it was broccoli or corn), and it was a classic Southern plate done right. We also enjoyed a couple of cocktails, and to finish, we split a praline bread pudding, which felt like the perfect Southern ending to the meal--sweet, comforting, and indulgent without being overwhelming. The staff was friendly and attentive, and one of the things I continue to appreciate about Charlotte is how easy it is to connect with people. We even chatted with diners at nearby tables, which added to that welcoming, community feel that makes dining out here so enjoyable--especially for someone coming from the Bay Area. Prices felt fair for the quality, the setting, and the portion sizes, and overall the experience left a great impression. Bottom line: If you're craving a solid Southern classic like country fried steak--or just want a relaxed patio lunch in a charming part of SouthPark--The Southern Pecan is definitely worth a visit. And as someone happily eating my way through Charlotte and the Southeast, this stop was another reminder that the journey has been a delicious one.

I've heard rave reviews about this place so Michelle & I went for Sunday Brunch…read more They recommended a reservation so we had one @ 12n. It was already quite busy when we arrived and it's not clear where your parking options are. People are pulling up to the entrance and dropping people off so it gets jammed up and chaotic, of course people are running late so those BIG Yukons and Suburbans are making it a challenge to navigate a small entrance area. You would THINK they would at least have a Valet option of Sat/Sun during Brunch. To park, go BEHIND the restaurant on the street to the left and you'll see some free parking options that are close and walkable. We asked for a table on the patio and were immediately seated. The bar was already buzzing with solo diners enjoying their Mimosas. The patio is NOT that big, a little over crowded and table are very close with not much space in between. There was a LARGE group of 'FUN' ladies right beside us enjoying their MIMOSAS, dropping the 'F' bomb from time to time and making a LOT of noise. What can you do? Nothing but try to make the best of it and just start talking LOUDER like everyone else. The OVERHEAD heaters were way too intense so the Staff was very responsive at our request to turn down the heat. We shared the BBQ Shrimp Starter which was SO good, I highly recommend. I had the Gumbo and Michelle had the beet and goat cheese salad. We both had the Red Fish which comes with smashed potatoes and broccoli. The potatoes were so BLAND, the broccoli had NO seasoning. The Red Fish wasn't that great of a flavor and not very tender, not easy to cut, had to use my knife at times to get a bite. Kinda disappointed, I lived in N Orleans for a couple of years and it was always so good there. The biggest disappointment was the Gumbo. It had all the right ingredients but the ROUX was to strong, dark and heavy. It actually gave me indigestion afterwards. The service was OUTSTANDING. Our Server was Daylean, she was so nice and helpful with the menu and kept our refills coming.
