I had a big day in the morning so I wanted to go out tonight for Dinner: Hot Wings. We wanted to try somewhere we hadn't been so we went up the road to Selwyns because it would be nice to find a new place to watch the NFL. We found parking but seating was scarce by 6:30pm, except a few benches not visible to the service staff. My fiancé and I chose to sit at a corner of the bar to get more speedy service (and they could see us). The bartenders were very attentive to get my fiancé a beer and provide me a soda. We ordered 12 wings each, four flavors and a basket of fries. The order came in timely but I wasn't super comfortable where I was sitting and the tables didn't turn over on the outdoor patio so that we could transition to a table, to eat. We both agree the flavor of the wings and the fries were good but I think my wings would have been better if they were better coated in more sauce, like my fiancés. read more

They took my cup tower, manager was rude. He swore at us for no reason. Will was cool - our waiter. The drinks are weak but good but management is super rude for no reason. read more

Took our cups, used them as a tracker for my drinking. Our waiter Will was the man though, manager sucked. Will go back for the transfusion and service. 4.3 booms read more

The food was very average, I got food poisoning and was on the toilet for over 1/2 a day, I would recommend the Charlotte Health Department make a visit read more

This place is trash. The staff is incredibly rude and will claim the place is closed long before business hours listed. And the bathrooms are disgusting. read more

A Charlotte staple this place was here long before I arrived and from speaking with my friends who grew up here it has been a favorite hangout of Charlotte natives for years. They are known for their inviting patio (I am not really sure I even know what the inside of this place looks like) and their inexpensive mixed drinks they call transfusions which are served in a signature Styrofoam cup. I no longer live very close to this place so I hadn't ventured over here in a while but my Patriots were playing on a Thursday night so some friends suggested this location to get together and watch the game. We managed to snag some couch space along with a table surrounding a fire pit. A fire wasn't needed as the weather was nice but I imagine they come in handy during the colder months. For drinks I kept it simple with beer orders while many at our table enjoyed their transfusion drinks. We decided to try their pizza and ordered three larges for the table along with some chips and queso and several appetizers. The food was ok nothing special. Good enough to eat while drinking and watching sports but not something you would plan your night around to come eat. If I were to base it simply off the food the score would be lower but our main objective was to watch the game and have a good time and they certainly provide that. Our server was fantastic and did a great job keeping up with everyone's orders she gets 5 stars from me. I can definitely see the charm to this place, it is old school and laid back. If I lived closer I would probably swing by more often. read more

Selwyn Avenue Pub - Table outside. Great place to hang! - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Cool spot with tons of outdoor seating and fast service. Best thing on the menu is the, hands down, the Nashville Hot Fries. Drinks were great and the fried pickles and wings were really good too but the Nashville Hot fries stole the show. read more

Extremely mediocre. Nothing has salt or seasoning on it. I ordered the hotdog slider with chili, the chicken sandwich slider, the cheeseburger slider, and tater tots. The only thing with a taste was the chili. Everything else was completely bland. I was here for 30 minutes before I got a server and I had to ask for one who made me prepay. Keep in mind, it was 730 on a Saturday, why would the only person sitting inside (it was packed outside) have to prepay for their food. I'm good on this place. I was one of 4 black people and the ONLY person sitting inside and could not get a server. If you don't want to serve black people, just say it. read more

One of my favorite spots to watch football games! Got to try the diet transfusion or the regular if you aren't counting calories! Also they have some "decent"'wines for you none beer liquor drinkers :) read more

Selwyn Avenue Pub - Classic Buffalo Wing - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This place is alright. The food is typical bar food options but everything I ordered tasted good. The drinks I ordered were also good, however I do think the first drink I ordered was incorrect. But as it tasted fine and I didn't want to wait for another drink I drank it. The outdoor are could be so good, but they REALLY need to invest in new seating under the roof. The couches by the big TVs were all broken and extremely uncomfortable. When my boyfriend sat down he literally sunk into the seat. This place is not incredibly expensive which is nice. read more

Selwyn Avenue Pub - TV screens outside - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Always a go-to bar every time I am home! Love the outdoor atmosphere and the signature drink- the transfusion! Always has sporting events on their big screens. Pizza is incredible. Very likely to run into one + people you know! Overall always a great time with good friends. read more

My buddies Greyson and Cameron told me pizza is 1/2 off Monday thru Thursday after 9pm!

After years I finally made it back to Selwyn this past week. Nothing really has changed, great patio and "comfy" inside. The bar is somewhat small inside, which makes it hard to get drinks. I have had a few items from the menu, and so far, everything is just okay. Overall, it is a great place to meet friends for drinks, especially to watch sports, but expect a crowd and be prepared for slow service. read more

I love coming here! We come at least once a week. The mozzarella sticks are so good love their amazing wine selections and the owner is so nice!! Best football Sunday spot by far in all of Charlotte (aside from The stadium lol). We did come last Sunday and it seemed as if our waitress was super overwhelmed was forgetting our table constantly and we waited an hour at one point to get a refill of Diet Coke (which she kept Charging us for and one came with grape juice in it a little funky ha) and a check. Really no harm no foul just feel like maybe she could use some help. Will be back soon! read more

Love this place and their pizza hands down one of my favorites. My daughter and I like to go there, lots of TVs to watch games

The epitome of lackluster. The pub food is standard... nothing special. It's not terrible by any means but exactly what you would expect. The place is somewhat dirty and bland. For a bar or pub atmosphere... there are plenty of more Charlotte options. read more

Great place if you are straight and white and don't care about people of color or anyone who is different. The bouncer fought with us for almost an hour about an out of state ID and didn't let my friend in who is a person of color. We were not let in because of a "capacity issue" yet we watched four white men walk in easily with no problem over us. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!! read more

So we come here quite often. Though we have never sat at the bar. Today we decided to sit at the bar because there were only 2 people there. The bartender basically dared us to order a drink and we had to beg for menus. My thought is that if we aren't the right kind of customers (old) let us know. We'll leave. Truth is, I can stay at home and be ignored. read more

Selwyn Avenue Pub - Too busy socializing and eating his lunch to take our order. - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

So...another one of my "been in Charlotte 3 years and I just tried this place?!" moments (ie Penguin). Was out with a buddy last week and after some good beer tasting at Dockworkers, we were in the mood for pizza. Decided to head in the direction of the new Mellow Mushroom on Selwyn, but unfortunately (fortunately tuned) it was not open yet. Decided to go across the street to Selwyn Pub as we'd never been. OMG...place is awesome. Was busy for a Tuesday and the patio area is twice the size of the pub itself. Huge TVs, couches, fire pits, high tops, low tops, fireplaces, separate bar. Selwyn could be my new favorite pub in Charlotte, but I'll let a few more visits in the coming weeks decide that. Found ourselves a fire pit near the TV. Baseball game was on and checked out the menu. To my surprise and delight all the pizza was $12.99. That's right, za for $12.99. And that's their specialty pizza prices. You want A 10" (I think that's the right side, then it's $7.99). You want an 18" cheese pizza with all the toppings...yep...$12.99. Witnessed a few handfuls of customers picking up the pizza to-go, which means like usual I'm the last one to the party. I'll be back soon, especially with the nice fall weather in store! read more

Quick recap: if you're looking for a place to grab a beer outside, this is a nice place. If you're looking to have a good meal, this is not your place. Good beer, good wings, not so good everything else. Very much a neighborhood bar where people know each other. Been here a few times usually to drink outside. Only once inside bc it is a bit dark and confined. But the beer was fine, service was ok, wings were fine as well. Outside of the wings, I have yet to get anything that really hit the spot or made me want to order it again. This is classic bar food you eat when you are not sober. At that point it doesn't really matter. Not a bad place, but not a place I would recommend to people looking for a cool spot to eat and drink visiting Charlotte. read more

Would give zero stars but that's not a option, this place is such garbage, it's amazing they are still open, use to be a good place to hang out, that seems like a long time ago, terrible management read more

Selwyn Avenue Pub - Veggie pizza just the way I like it!! - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This used to be one of my favorite places in Charlotte, one that we would be excited to bring our friends and family coming in from out of town. Not anymore. Not sure what happened over the past couple of years but the service is miserable. It's unfortunate because the food is pretty good. We've given this place a few shots but the final straw was when we had 40+ wings delivered for a group...NO WING SAUCE. Nothing like a bland, dry wing...good thing we had Red Hots in our fridge. In the same $150+ order, our pizza's were missing half of the toppings listed on the menu. We're done. read more

I've been here once before and it was during the summertime which is ideal since their outdoor space is great. I like that it is a little "off the beaten path" but a lot of things on Selwyn have definitely changed in the past couple of years with construction and new businesses moving in. Parking can be an issue if the place is packed, but they still make it work and it is parking is definitely worth the headache to get to this pub. Unfortunately for me I got a whole beer poured on me by the waitress and I had my menu positioned perfectly on the table to funnel all the liquid goodness into my lap. It was rather embarrassing since there was a bit of a crowd there that day, but it was the summer and I didn't really mind too much. The waitress was super embarrassed and paid for my beer. It's a fond memory that my friends don't let me forget about every time we think about going to Selwyn Pub. read more

Very small indoor area, but great outdoor seating type of a restaurant! Thus, weather dependent. Tons of TVs to watch any sporting event. The food is delicious and service is quick! The pizza is AMAZING!! Seriously, the best pizza I've had in a long time!! Best Tip about this place - there is a huge private booth at the back. read more

Haley ROCKS. Make sure to ask for her as your server. Fried pickles are amazing and drinks are strong. You won't regret your time here!

We ordered a pizza for pickup and it was delicious. I always find their food consistently delicious for bar food and for the price.

The only thing that kept me from giving a 5th star is the speed of service. Servers were nice but we were unable to find our server when we needed something. It's possible they were under staffed the day we were there. Otherwise we really love this place!!! Big fan of the sliders, you can get 6 for $15 and I normally just share them with my boyfriend. This place is oh so fabulous for the patio! Lots of TVs, big sofas and fire pits. I am pretty sure I haven't been inside the place unless I had to use the restroom. I go here when the weather is nice because I know it's gonna be an awesomely comfortable laid back setting. Parking can be a big big problem! I truly don't have many suggestions for that issue but hopefully they will figure out a solution for it! read more

Selwyn Avenue Pub - Sliders at Selwyn! - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This was my first time coming here. Definitely a great patio area, but the inside is nice, too - especially on a warm day. Plenty of tv's and different levels of seating (couches, tables, bar seating, booths) and a great fire pit. There is plenty of people-watching here. It seems to be a place to try to meet people and there were definitely a couple of people that would actually move around to different seating areas to see what kind of attention they'd get. Lot's of loafers with no socks and maxi-dresses with oversized sunglasses. The staff makes sure that ID's are checked and that people aren't walking in already intoxicated. All of the staff were extremely welcoming & attentive. We only had the nacho's, but they were good with plenty of queso, chicken & yummy toppings. read more

I'd say this is about average for a pub. With food that's good but not five star, and makes for a good place to hang out. It's very relaxed and homey feeling, which I really enjoyed. The burgers are very tasty and pretty good sized as well. Since I've only been here during lunch time, I haven't tried the drink menu. I'll have to go back some night and check it out. The waitstaff is also a main attraction. They are always looking out for their customers, and they are a riot if you're the type to joke around. My favorite part of this place though, is the patio. It's habitable even in the insane heat. They keep fans with water misters going to keep the patio nice and cool. read more

Selwyn Seltzer: styrofoam cup and plastic straw (but only $5!). Setting a good example for future generations.

Saturday night, only one bartender working behind the bar. All the other staff members were hanging out on the other side watching TV. Took me a half hour to get my first beer read more

I do not know the name of the bartender but I have to say, NOT nice and NOT accommodating. I went here for the first time today so obviously didn't know the "protocol" of ID at the front, etc. I'm 6 months pregnant and was just meeting friends, stopped for a cookout milkshake on the way so I had something to drink while they sipped their beers. There were very few tables with patrons when I walked in. I walked in and looked at my people, but the guy at the front sort of looked at me funny. I didn't realize he was waiting on my ID (which I had left in the car because my husband was already sitting down with his wallet and I knew I wouldn't be drinking anything but water while there). My milkshake was not out for all to see, it was behind my phone and I was not being flagrant about it. I went to sit and the bartender yelled behind the bar, so the guy from the front caught me and said I wasn't allowed outside drink. Everyone at my table said "SHES PREGNANT, let her stay, she just wanted her milkshake!" but the bartender then wouldn't look at me and the front guy had no choice but to "kick me out" until I finished my milkshake. I was not about to chug a milkshake in order to sit down and drink water in that shit hole so I went to my car, cried and left. They should've never treated me like that, and I will never go here again, even after I can drink again. read more

I went here yesterday for the Panther's play off game...side note: tough loss. The patio was cool, bartenders were on top of it, food was decent and I had a good time. Things were a little weird with our first server. She took our order and then immediately asked us to close out because she was leaving. She also said she would send our new server over. Come to find out our new server wasn't there yet and she was still taking new tables. Not sure what happened there. Great place to gather with friends and enjoy a few cold ones. read more

My girlfriends always raved about food and drinks here before COVID-19. We finally made it out here, bartender was rude, lacked hospitality and looked at us as if we were stupid when we had questions about the drink menu. We ordered the Carolina Gold chicken wings and they were literally burnt to a crisp and all of the sauce was burnt off obligating us to ask for a side of the sauce. Quality of food and service has definitely gone downhill. read more

Awesome spot to watch a game. Great outdoor & indoor bar environments. Food was very solid too. I got the nachos and the pick-any-two sliders (the buffalo chicken slider is the best one for sure). read more

Called for a pick up order and was put on hold for 10 minutes. Decided to hang up and try again a little later. They had completely forgot and the phone was still off the line an hour later read more

The Selwyn Pub is great. Fun outdoor atmosphere, great wings and pizza, and love the Transfusion!
