This is such a fun little place. For such a small store, they have a very broad beer selection and often have ones that are hard to find elsewhere. You can purchase beer to drink there or take home. In addition to their extensive bottle selection, they also have rotating taps. Salud is also a really great place to hang out. I actually don't think I've ever brought beer hone before because I really enjoy drinking it at the store. They have board games and even an old Nintendo system! Finally, the location of Salud is great. It's in NoDa in close proximity to many other bars in case you want to head elsewhere later in the evening. read more

I ADORE this place. Went here with some friends who are regulars, so we got to hang out with the owner who was a cool dude. Got to sample a bunch of different beers, and the owner was very knowledgeable and was able to recommend different types of beer for me to try. I know some other reviews have mentioned this, so it may be redundant for me to as well, but they have an old school Nintendo NES with not one, but TWO Duck Hunt guns. So yea. I will DEFINITELY be going back to this place! read more

The owner is great. He can suggest a beer for any palate or craving. Awesome selection of stock and a unique draft selection allows you to explore new brews at reasonable prices. Excellent addition to the neighborhood! read more

It's incredible how many beers they can fit into a small space AND have a bar AND have a food station. Innovative minds for sure. Plus, they have a Primoz Brezec signed basketball behind the bar. Complete #baller status. read more

My first visit was a quick walk through to check the store out, grab some beer and leave. The store is amazing, from the graffiti outside to all the great beer inside and a freaking NES, what is not to love? I can hardly find Fullsteam Brewery in stores while I am in the Triangle, so imagine my surprise to find it here at Salud. I grabbed a growler and also saw they had growlers from Mystery Brewery in Hillsborough, NC...where I went to high school! The guy running the store said he went and got them himself, props. I am going to get some of that on my next trip. With a more concentrated selection than Total Wine, awesome store and fair prices; I think I found my new favorite beer store. Next time when I have time I have to play that NES though, for real. read more

If you don't love Salud, you also probably hate sunshine, puppies, a child's laugh, and America. There's aways a unique tap selection and plenty of hard to find bottles from which to choose. Salud could get by with great beer alone, but what keeps me coming back are the even greater people responsible for the beer. Jason is a true connoisseur, but he is down-to-earth and incredibly patient with novices - no intimidation or snobbery here. Prices are reasonable, and the beer is fresh (unless it isn't supposed to be) unlike the typical megamart. tl;dr Go drink here now. read more

Everyone was so freaking rude! From the bartenders to the bar backs, customer service SUCKED. As a first timer the dismissiveness and matter of factly attitudes from the staff were a turn off. Don't bother asking questions, you'll be met with disdain and annoyance. read more

The best beer shop in Charlotte period! Always has knowledgeable employees willing to find you the perfect beer. Great selection on draft that is always rotating. Music is always on point and the store smells like fresh linen and lavender. Do yourself and your friends a favor and shop here. read more

I wish this bottle shop was in Raleigh! Always a go to when I'm in the area. They always seem to have a couple of beers that I can't find other places, and a great beer list to choose from whilst I drink and shop read more

Love this shop! The owners are always helpful and they have great craft beer finds. Friendly atmosphere and a fun crowd. If you need a new spot to buy your favorite craft beers this is it. read more

First thought 5 stars was for the beer. But then I got my food. Damn 5 stars is right.

Salud quickly become one of my favorite watering holes in Charlotte. This place makes you feel right at home the second you walk in. Jason and crew are very accessible, friendly and knowledgeable about the products they put on their shelves, fridges and taps. I've had many a nights here losing myself in great conversations with other beer lovers and other interesting people amidst great beer, snacks, laughter and cheers. As if that wasn't enough, Salud offers an incredible beer selection. Probably one of the better selections in town. Also, I love the fact that he always puts interesting beer on his taps. Unlike some other places that boast of taps, yet stock them with the same local beers you can get down the road for cheaper, or, god forbid, AB beers, Jason's selection is usually something you've not tried or is not as readily available. Walk on in, grab a beer, and strike a conversation with a random stranger. You won't regret spending your evening here. read more

Beer shop was amazing first time I went 5 years ago. I just went back and I was blown away by the food upstairs. Pizzas are amazing.

I was sitting in Heist down the street when the bartender informed me that Salud was just down the street and worth a stop in. Being that I was visiting Charlotte only for the weekend I did and boy am I excited I did! Salud not only had the Heist beer I was drinking, but also offered crowler fill ups of it (Heist didn't)!! So I bought 3 of them to go! Salud had an amazing line up on their 12ish drafts, a fantastic bottle selection, and some awesome merchandise. My only complaint was that they didn't have the purple baseball shirt in my size (XL), or I would have bought one! I had to settle for getting a tulip glass instead because their slogan was too awesome not to buy something of! This will always be one of my top stops whenever visiting Charlotte! Thanks again and Salud read more

Salud - Best slogan I've seen in a looooooong time! Wish they had the shirt but this will do! - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Saluuuuuuud! The local bottle shop that has made themselves in to so much more. They now offer their own brewery upstairs called the salud cerveceria. Downstairs they are still rocking a top level tap selection matched with a solid selection in the refrigerator case. You may come across Maine brewing, Grimm out of Brooklyn or something you have never even heard of that you love. They also support all the locals with plenty of noda, birdsong and triple C on their shelves. This is a great spot to grab some of asheville's best as well, they are always stocked well with Burial. Their owners seem like really nice people and you may even run in to them in the bottle shop or upstairs in the new spot. I love this place for being one of the most chill spots in Charlotte. Bottle shops galore in this town yet i still keep coming back to my old standby, Salud. Top notch, see for your self. read more

Awesome selection of craft beers by the bottle and 6 pack.I was able to find Polestar Pilsner by Left Hand Brewery here after Growlers Pourhouse ran out of it on tap. Which was actually tragic because that was my boyfriends favorite...lucky for him i was able to surprise him with a 6 pack of his own and a connection to the stuff too. It can be a little overwhelming if you don't know what you're looking for. The walls are lined with shelves, lined with beers, and all the artwork on the bottles sort of blend together to make a giant quilt of mini pictures...its actually pretty cool. The staff is very very helpful, and definitely knows his stuff. I'll definitely make this a regular stop when Im on the hunt for specialty beers. read more

When I think of Salud I reflexively start humming the Cheers theme. Jason and his group of some-nights-employees-some-nights-patrons have a great way of making a girl and her beer feel right at home. Add to that an wide selection of shelved and chilled bottles and an impressive tap list and you have the makings of a great bottle shop. There is always something new to try, especially on draft. Charlotte's local breweries are strongly represented but you will also find brews from far and wide, as well as from breweries that have no real home at all (I'm looking at you Evil Twin!). Sometimes you do want to go where everybody knows your name, and you want to have a great beer when you get there. It is those times for which Salud exists. read more

Everything about this place is amazing. I love the location, the beer selection and the atmosphere. There are hard to find beers and draught beers. There is a little area to sit outside. Sometimes they have events w/ delicious food. The place has a lot going for it. My one complaint. I think, perhaps, they should consider a little bit of wine. I'm talking a tiny, itty bitty wine selection. The whole anti-gluten craze has taken over and a handful of my friends refuse to go because it is only beer. Sigh. read more

Came here for some after dinner drinks with a couple of friends and had a great time! It's a quant bottle store with multiple drafts and cold beer options to choose from. You will find knowledgeable staff who enjoy beer and enjoy sharing their wealth of beer knowledge to help you find the perfect brew. Salud has comfy couches to chill out and tables where you can play cards or games with your friends. It's a great place to try a variety of craft beers that you can't easily find elsewhere. Now anytime we are in the NoDa we will definitely stop by! read more

great beer selection, owner and employees are very personable and friendly! Also love fud at salud, kimmy gobbler sandwich is my favorite. Definitely stop by if you are in CLT and like beer. Not only do they have great beers on tap they will let you open what they sell and drink it there too read more

I have gone to Salud on a few occasions but now that I live in the area, I love it even more. There aren't that many places locally in NoDo where you can stop in get quality craft beers and a great wine selection to go. You can always sit and relax but that is an option you decide. They have fantastic beers on draft too and rotate them often enough you don't ever get bored. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. I wish they had a bigger patio but that is not a complaint!!!! I can't speak for the food YET but I will and update my post. Make your way down, SALUD! read more

Man I'm glad to have found Salud when I moved to Charlotte. Moving from Seattle, where beer is as common as the Douglas Firs, it was nice to see a place with the passion I have grown so accustomed to. They have every beer imaginable especially to be such a small shop. They also have a small tap list where you can fill a growler or sit down for a drink. They carry lots of local brews including Fonta Flora (sometimes and only on tap) which is hard to find outside of the brewery. Drink beer? Tired of buying it where you buy gas? Come here. They will not disappoint. read more

Awesome shop and great knowledgable service. Very cool decor/atmosphere and GREAT craft beer selection. Come thirsty!! Grab a game of battleship and hang out on the patio enjoying your beer. read more

Was in town for business, staying downtown and ventured to NoDa for dinner. When I travel I like to find local bottle shops to pick up a few to take home to my craft beer loving husband. This was super convenient to a number of well rated restaurants. The shop was pretty big and has a large variety of bottles both on shelves and in the fridges. You can also try one of their 12 beers on tap or take a crowler of those to go. I chose a few cans and bottles to travel back to Texas with and the lady behind the counter was super friendly and double wrapped everything for me for easy packing. Would definitely visit again next time I'm in town -- highly recommend. read more

This type of place just doesn't exist where I'm from. But I wish it did. Salud feels like a beer shop -- one with a pretty terrific selection -- that you can actually drink in. This is a concept that was totally foreign to me before moving to Charlotte, but man do I love it. The owner Jason is about as friendly and affable a guy as you could ask for. Always willing to do what he can to get you what you're looking for in the unlikely event that it's not already on the shelf. We've only hung out for a drink at Salud once, but we've carried out a ton in the five months or so since we moved to the area. This is hands down the place I prefer to spend my money if I'm looking for some good beer. read more

Great little spot in NODA that I've been to a few times and is definitely one of my favorite places out there. Staff is awesome, beer selection is always good and they also have a really good kitchen where they make some killer sandwiches. Also have plenty of stuff not on tap available for sale just in case you can't find something you like. The Jabroni is hands down the best I've had so far but I've heard good things on their other options. Keep being awesome Salud. read more

As a cider drinker, I wish they had a few more options. It's a small shop with a great variety of beer, though. Gotta love local business, and the word is they're expanding. More room for cider, perhaps? I hope! More seating will make for a longer stay and a more comfortable experience. I've had great interactions with the staff, but I have a few friends who avoid going in because of poor experiences. Looking forward to visiting post-expansion! read more

Salud is possibly my favorite beer shop in Charlotte. Not only is the owner super knowledgeable, their selection is a tough one to defeat. The prices are solid and their tap selection does not disappoint. They have a very small outside section, but now have a place to get some grub next to it. Also, they are the only place I know of in Charlotte that sells crowlers. I effing love crowlers. read more

Salud was awesome. I was so unaware you could hangout and drink here I thought it was just a place to buy beer but it's so much more. They have taps and bottles and awesome nachos! I'll definitely be back. read more

Amazing beer selection, cool atmosphere and did I mention beer? Stop in, try something new and take it home with you. What is not to love?

Great selection. Expert knowledge. Love the square wallet checkout. Super fast.

Great new beer store in NODA! Jason has a really good selection of 6-pk, mixed 6 options as well as 22s. Picked up a 4-pk of Terrapin's Hopzilla and had to hold back from snagging a number of other gems. Would highly recommend! read more

I have only been here a handful of times so far. That being said I have always been recognized by the owner and have always had a great time. They have a ton of beer. That being said. Not a lot of cold ones. Few more coolers and this place is golden. This shop is much needed as well as the perfect edition to noda. Now if I can only get the owner to give up his source for the Darklord and CBS beers we will have the perfect beer shop. *hint hint* In all seriousness check this place out next time you are in noda. If not for the beer then for the classic Nintendo in the front window. If you can beat my 124,500 points on duck hunt ill buy you a beer! read more

Always have a great tap list and a huge selection of local stuff in the fridge. Always good vibes and a great place for a drink. With the opening of upstairs couple with the beer shop and fud at Salud it is a dynamic spot, to say the least. read more

One of the very best bottle shops in North and South Carolina with a wide selection of well crafted beers from all over the globe and an awesome selection of local ones as well. Jason will definitely take care of you here. Must go to place when in the NoDa area. read more

Such nice people who are very helpful and knowledgeable about craft beers! Also if you haven't tried their chicken and waffle "waffle-wich" you haven't been living your life correctly! Get here asap and try out this awesome place!! read more

Cool little beer shop in Noda. It's a solid bottle shop with a wide selection.

Broadest beer selection I have found in Charlotte. Plenty of beer on tap (and in bottles) to try while you are shopping. The folks who work here are knowledgeable AND nice. Awesome. read more

They get fonta flora on tap...rare. i like everything about this place.

Best bottle shop in Charlotte. They run out of stuff fast sometimes so if you are waiting for something in particular don't sleep on it. They have a dozen taps and most of the beers you won't find anywhere else city. They should start serving food after the first of the year which will add another dimension to an already great place. read more
