800° Lounge has the kind of lounge‑lounge vibe you expect -- dim, stylish, and easy to settle into for a night out. The atmosphere is smooth and relaxed, perfect for sipping and socializing. The cocktails and wine selection are solid, with drinks that feel thoughtfully put together. Definitely a good spot if you're here for the beverages and the vibe. As for the food, there's a lot more room to grow. The cauliflower appetizer, for example, could use a more inventive preparation and bolder flavor to match the energy of the space. Not as exciting as the drinks or ambiance. Overall, it's a nice place to unwind with good cocktails, good company, and a cool lounge feel. read more

I came here for cocktails and this place did not disappoint. The drink menu is EXTENSIVE and all of the one we tried were amazing. Service was quick and effective. Place is a little loud but you can enjoy a conversation on your table without yelling. Only thing is that they do not have prices of drinks in the menu, and they are 20 to 24$ each at least the ones we tried! So bear that in mind, but otherwise definitely recommend! read more

You can enter from their partnered business 800 Degrees or enter the lounge/bar area from the entrance on Fairview Road. What a great atmosphere and an overall chill, grown and sexy vibe! Service was great. Staff was attentive and welcoming. I had my usual expresso martini, 10/10. I also stayed for dinner which was excellent! I ordered the meatballs as an appetizer which could have easily been served as a full meal. Honestly, it was the best meatballs I've ever had. Seriously. The main entree was even better! The salmon. Chefs kiss. I was impressed, I came here twice in one week LOL. Enjoy! read more

The food and music is AMAZING! I'll definitely be back soon. If you're in the mood for a bar and good food on a Friday night, this is definitely the place to be. read more

Bar One checks off a lot of boxes that you would want in a cocktail lounge. Great drinks, knowledgeable bartenders, beautiful decor, and chill vibes. I originally came here for a drink before having dinner nearby, and most recently popped in before eating at their business partner 800 degrees pizza which is attached in the same building. They have a great combination of classic cocktails as well as their own unique creations. If you are having a hard time deciding the bartenders are happy to make recommendations and they are more than happy to go off menu if you can't find something on the menu. They can tailor a drink based on your tastes! Like most cocktail bars the drinks are a little pricy, but I can say it is well worth a trip here as it makes for a great evening. Even if you only want to stop in for one drink, it'll probably be one of the best you've had in a while! read more

The 800° Lounge - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

The food was a 7.5/10 for me. I got the red snapper, the inside was maybe not cooked all the way but i'm not sure if it was the way it was prepared because I usually eat this entree fried. My date said their food wasn't the best, he got the salmon, mac and broccolini. The ambience was a 9/10. They played hip hop and rnb the whole time and the crowed was mixed! I would recommend making a reservation or getting there early in the evening because the bar was packed and no tables were available when we arrived. Luckily we were able to be seated after about 10 min of waiting at the bar. Our waitress was very accommodating and nice. I will be back! And I will try a different entree. read more

I think I've been trying to keep this gem to myself... Bar One is hands-down the spot for life's special moments. Somehow, I've never left a review until now! This is the place for cocktail lovers who appreciate an experience and aren't afraid to step outside of the box. I love bringing out of town guest here. Service is great, drinks are always delicious, and there's plenty of parking. read more

After wrapping up dinner at 800 Degrees, one of the bussers recommended we stop into their lounge. He said they "turn up" and he was surprisingly right. You can enter the bar from its entrance off of the Fairview Rd side of Philips Place or you can also walk past the kitchen in 800 Degrees through the unmarked wooden door. It is a dark bar with dim lighting, leather, gold finishes, and rich wood decor. Exactly what you would expect for a speak easy type bar. I ate at 800 Degrees prior to stopping in here so read that review for details on the food. They appear to share food and drink menus so that review covers both. When we arrived it was bustling with conversation and music. We didn't have a reservation, but the hostess was able to seat us at a small table for two. I would highly recommend reservations if you are going on a popular night like Friday because it was packed. The seating was comfortable with low back, plush leather chairs. There is a large bar area and that is first come first serve. It is loud. Definitely not a place to have an intimate conversation, but it has a fun and energizing vibe. Seating is spacious enough so that you aren't rubbing elbows with the table beside you. A DJ was setting up when we arrived and the music quickly changed over to 90s and early 00s hip hop. I ordered wine. The pour was generous and they have beautiful wine glasses. The cocktail, wine and beer menu is a book. Literally. They have cocktails and mocktails so there is something for any palette. It would be appreciated by patrons to know what the cost is or at least a price range prior to ordering especially since a portion of the menu has prices listed. There is plenty of free parking, but the shopping center also had complimentary valet on the Friday night we visited. I'll definitely visit this hidden gym again to get the full experience. read more

Such an interesting place. It is sort of a speakeasy but also not at all. It's a fancy bar but also a pizza place. Super chill and upscale decor and vibe. The service was good and pretty fast and it was the perfect volume of talking and background music. The drink menu is great and the food menu has plenty of options. I ended up deciding to get pizza halfway because of that is what the attached other restaurant is so I figured it should be good, and also because although I wanted to be at an upscale place I wasn't in the food for upscale food. I had the Honey Badger and it was excellent! read more

So cool. Extremely busy at 11pm on a Christmas weekday. I'm not from the area, but this was the only adult bar lounge around. Music was loud and almost a clubbing vibe. Drinks were expensive and so was the food. The ambiance is an older crowd but very classy and a good late night spot in charlotte. Felt very safe in the area. Gorgeous during the Christmas season. read more

Love the fact this spot has expanded! Popped in here with the girls on a Friday was delighted to see additions to the menu in the bar as well. We opted for the Brussels sprouts with honey balsamic viniagrette, the fries, and OVEN ROASTED wings with both Smoky Barbecue & 800 Signature sauces. DEEE-licious. Perfectly cooked and NOT overly sauced. So good, in fact, that we had several orders of each. This may be our weekend go-to spot from now on! The music played here tonight made this spot even better. The service--phenomenal. read more

This location literally changed my whole mood.... From all girls just want to have fun to "Where am I" the atmosphere is very unfriendly. The manager never spoke to us and he was basically near us the whole night. The bartender never came back to check on us.... At this point I'm over the whole night. Very unfriendly and extremely rude. I read the previous review but gave it a chance anyway. Do not do what I do read and believe my review. read more

The service provided here was outstanding. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, who were attentive and courteous. The ambiance of the lounge created the perfect setting for dinner and cocktails. I must specifically commend the manager, Krista, for her exceptional customer service. She not only ensured that everything ran smoothly but also took the time to engage with customers on a personal level. Her friendly and personable nature truly enhanced my overall dining experience. I recommend Bar One Lounge to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience or even a place to have a quality cocktail. Their pizzas come from a legit wood fired oven. And make sure not to skip out on the meatballs and cauliflower. The quality of service, coupled with the inviting atmosphere and delicious cuisine, makes it a standout choice for any occasion. I look forward to coming back! read more

Salad was simple but 10/10. Other appetizers were decent. Nothing to rave about. Crowded and loud in front area on a Friday night. Back area was more calm. read more

Stopped by to take a look at the new extension which opened up today. They did a good job making it match the vibe and decor of the original section - can't even tell. Every time I come here on a Thursday or Friday there's always a nice crowd, but not overly crowded. They have a great drink menu and the pizza is so enjoyable! I told the bartender I wished my drink was sweeter and he didn't waste a minute in offering to remake mine to my taste. Service here is great. Now that they have so much more space I'll def come back here with a group! *They take reservations for the booths and tables but seats at the bar are first come first serve Parking Free valet until 11pm. Otherwise many spots around the plaza but it can be difficult to find a spot if you come at prime time. read more

Came here on my birthday for a quick drink and live music that was advertised on the website. I guess the live music was rescheduled and a dirty martini with house vodka was surprisingly $28 and a cosmo was $18 which is the most ridiculous amount I've ever paid for a drink. The waiter came by 1 time. I've always wanted to try this bar, absolutely not worth the hype or the price. The ambiance and the bar was nice but not for a $28 dollar tiny cocktail with house vodka, so do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else in southpark for a drink. read more

Very cute place and only one in the area open so late, I think (i was visiting from out of town and staying close by). Bit of an older crowd for the most part. Bartenders were chill and hospitable, making us some of the most balanced cosmos I've had. Thanks for remembering our order from the night before i visit the area every few months and i think this will be our new go-to spot for a nightcap. Ooh, also the tartufo pizza was phemon. read more

This was my second dining experience at the bar. Please note I was at the bar so table service may differ. I expected a higher level of service for menu pricing and location. There were 2 on duty bartenders. They were slow to greet, slow to get our drink order, gave us place mat to set our selves, forgot my friend's protein on the Gorgonzola salad and we had to wave a bar's helper to get new silverware. The bartender said he would take the protein charge off our bill, but it was never taken off and by the time I paid, I forgot. I would rate the food 7 out of 10 7 for drinks 8 for Ambience 3 for service Excellent service should be trained and a given at this level. I won't be returning, two chances. I can spend $150 elsewhere for two people at plenty other establishments. read more

We had been out of town and just wanted dinner. Bar one has great atmosphere and it's close to home. It was an agonizing 3 hour ordeal just to eat. Service was the worst I have experienced. Good came out a plate here and a plate there. Food wasn't bad, and as I said the atmosphere is delightful. But I will never ever go back ! read more

A+ for ambiance. The decor is on point, and the music selection on a Friday night to appease various crowds was impressive. However, that's where the positives end. Food, service and drinks, not good at all. My friends and I were so let down by the drinks after scouring a nicely developed and creative drink menu. None of the drinks were executed well, we sent several back. I've never had such bad cocktails! That was a major letdown. Service is slow and inconsistent, and not sure how you mess up fries, but they did. Won't go back. read more

I love Bar One Lounge! I have to stop in each time I am visiting Charlotte. Shout out to Noah the bartender. He is awesome. Noah provides great service and professionalism with a smile.

One of the owners was extremely rude to my friends and I . He was extremely prejudice with how he treated us when we had a complaint.

Previous experiences have been solid at Bar One; however, this past Wednesday, 4/10, was a total bust. We were promptly sat by the gents from behind the bar, waters delivered and it went down hill from there. The server was all over the place and scattered and the pizza was horrible. Horrible. $58 for two pizzas that no one in the party liked. I was embarrassed for having recommending the place for pizza to my guests. Bottom line: grab a seat(s) at the bar and avoid ordering the pizza. read more

I came across this bar during my stay in Charlotte, it was walking distance from where I was staying at and in a very safe area. Everyone was amazing! The service provided by Melissa was above and beyond! The food and drinks were great and it was all at a reasonable price. It was a very welcoming atmosphere. They remembered my name and greeted me by my name the next time I went in. This bar gave me an amazing experience! I cannot wait to return to it on my next visit to Charlotte! read more

On a whim, I stopped by with my BF. Entrance is a bit dark. We weren't sure it was open, but in fact, it was. Perfect spot for a post dinner cocktail. Not a huge place...probably 3-4 half large booths and one long bar. If there was other seating, I must have missed it. Bar staff immediately attentive upon arrival. It wasn't busy so we were able to grab a seat immediately. Solid cocktails and service. I would give it a go, again. Taking a star off for our server's odd attitude...No charisma at all. Overall though, solid experience. read more
