If you like craft beer and bottle shops, you will love the Casual Pint. To start, they have an awesome selection of local craft beer. You can get a good idea of the beer in the region by coming here. On draft, they were heavy on IPAs, stouts, and sours. They also had porters, pilsners, lagers, and a cider on draft. No Belgians, though, which made me sad, but they did have a lonely Hefeweizen. It is like a sports bar so there are plenty of TVs to watch sports. There is both a bar area and a seating area with tables. There is also an outside patio. On my visit, it was way too cold to be sitting outside. There are games to play here, mostly board games. They have a list of events, so if you are planning to visit during the week, you may want to visit their website to see what the happenings are. What I was really impressed by is their awesome selection of cans and bottles. And when I say awesome, I mean awesome. So many local craft beer delicacies. They also have food, I tried the chicken quesadilla with bacon for $1 extra. It was good. Came with salsa and sour cream. The salsa was both spicy and delicious. I enjoyed the salsa the most. Since I am going to be in the area for a while, I am going to try and frequent the Casual Pint. As far as a beer venue, the Casual Pint exceeds all my needs. read more

The Buffalo chicken sandwich is usually something I go to when there aren't any other go to options on the menu, and this option wouldn't be my go to neither. Sandwich felt like it had small square pieces of chicken that you would have diced in a salad, and it was very scarce in the wrap as well. The wrap was filled with greens and I left feeling hungry. Service was really good though and the bar tenders spoke with all their guest. They also have a WIDE variety of beer that beer lovers can enjoy, I just happened to not be drinking that night. Beer lovers enjoy but if you're looking for a quick late night bite, you may want to explore other options. read more

The Casual Pint - Rivergate - Games while drinking are the best! - Beer Bar Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

We attended a Drag Queen brunch here and had the best time. For such a small space lots of entertainment was accomplished. This is not a regular thing, perhaps just an occasional event. The performers were AMAZING! The ladies definitely know how to work a crowd. My fav part was the Q&A and let's be honest, all the performances. The only negative was the food. It was a small buffet on the patio which included some fruit, pastries and breakfast food with some horrible meatball and chicken nugget pieces (I swear those were not full nuggets). However the mimosas were delicious. We grabbed a pitcher and had a buzz quickly. Enough so that we did some drunk HomeGoods and Target shopping afterwards. Pro Tip: come early to the show so you get a good seat at the middle table or the bar. read more

the Casual Pint is a small bar/restaurant located in Rivergate shopping center. Relatively small location with a long bar, and a small bit of seating. There is also a small retail area with a shelving area with warm and cold beer. The beer selection is terrific for such a small location, they have 35 taps all of which are occupied with craft beer. A lot of local offerings as well. I believe they also have a couple of taps with wine. They have food, but I haven't ordered any on any of my visits. The staff has always been friendly and attentive. Overall I really enjoy this place, and will be back any time I am in the area. read more

Stopped in last week after unpacking two houses worth of items. Wife and I have been looking for a watering hole. We expected that the food would be fresh and service staff used proper hygiene. But after the first glass of wine and beer we indulged in, we noticed the staff coming in and out from smoking and not washing hands. We ate the sidewinders as recommended by our bartender. They literally came out of a frozen section of Costco. Good atmosphere, but the service could use some work. Recommended from a colleague, did not live up to expectations. read more

If there was a rating of zero, it would be post it. I just had a horrifying experience, talking to Nikki and casual pint. called to inform that I was disappointed and was handled quite unprofessionally a party of 30. responds the day before. Please pick five things on the item at 8 o'clock at night.. The room was not set up for one long table and wasn't informed that it could not be. The communication was awful. How rudeness when I called to explain how disappointed I was she screams at me on the phone. only talking about how great she was and that yes, she was a good waitress that wasn't the issue and she asked me a question are you the person who had and hangs up on me how professional is that not surprised at how it ends it do pick this restaurant. you'll be full of aggravation and embarrassed of what You see when you walk in nothing you wanted and expressed read more

We've been several times now and absolutely love the Casual Pint! They always have fun seasonal and staple beers on tap (you can get bottle or growlers too) and it's a relaxed atmosphere! Jess our waitress was amazing! She was super personable, recommended great drink options and made our whole experience stellar. Highly recommend popping by for a drink and some standard pub food. The 10 inch pretzel and beer cheese was fantastic. read more

Had a fun time there last night. DJ/cook is so friendly and helpful. Food was delicious! Thanks for a fun evening!

Pretty nice location to come grab a beer after doing some shopping or just to meet up for a quick drink with friends. They have a really nice beer list along with a couple of wines. I also like that they have food as well. I opted for some chicken tenders and fries during my visit. They weren't the best but they also were the worst I've ever had before. I would definitely go back for a visit if I'm in the area. read more

Beer is a good thing (their tshirts on sale quote Benjamin Franklin's "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." and other similar sentiments.) and The Casual Pint has it in spades. Thirty-six taps and a cooler with hundreds more making them the best bottle shop in Steele Creek. The staff really seems to know the beers. I watched one young lady recommend and provide samples to a couple. Friendly and with a nice laugh, she was trying hard to find one they liked. They have their own kitchen (menu includes wings, pretzels, flatbreads, salads and bratwursts) and they also have a list of places on their website that deliver. read more

I will start off by saying I appreciate the quick response to questions and the helpful customer service. However, this place is overpriced. I came here because they are one of the few places that keeps stock of the ciders that I like and I wanted to take some for our upcoming trip. I paid about $16 for a 6 pack of a mix of ciders. I should have waited until we went for our trip and got a 12 pack variety case from another store on the route that sells it for under the 6 pack that I paid for. I understand that when you create your variety it is more expensive, but it was definitely more expensive than any place I have created my own pack by about $5. I see now why they don't put the pricing up, avoids you from walking out after seeing the sticker shock. I will now have to request another store that I go to in which I only see 1-2 flavors in stock to get more flavors in to go there instead. read more

Hey Casual Pint. When you host the Charlotte folk society, how about letting them play INSIDE so when customers show up they can sit and enjoy the music? We showed up tonight and could only sit inside. Your music inside was so loud that you couldn't hear the folk music playing. Seems like a big miss. We decided not to stay. We would have enjoyed having a burger and listening to some folk music. Maybe next time? read more

The staff is friendly, the ambience is comfortable, the beer selection is good, the food is good enough. I would've given four stars if not for the obnoxiously loud music played by the DJ starting shortly after 7 o'clock on Friday. We were having to yell at each other and re-lips to continue our conversation. read more

Good menu and great cider selection. Love the Friday night bands and hoping to make it for a Trivia night. Just be sure to check their schedule before you go. read more

For beer, this place is a solid 4 star. The food is acceptable but underwhelming. If you are hungry, have a few brews before eating.

My favourite place in the area! Great atmosphere, good beers and wonderful service.

Swung by the pint today for lunch and a cold beverage. Food came out hot and the bartender was very knowledgeable of the beer offerings. Really enjoyed our meal and ice cold beer! We will be back for sure. read more

I stopped in here for some food & beers when I was in the area. After reading the reviews, I opted for the soft pretzel sticks. These were hands down the best soft pretzels I have had! read more

This place is one of my favorite hangouts I Charlotte. I come here by myself to decompress a lot, and the staff and beer selection is amazing. I always feel comfortable, and Nikki always takes such good care of me. Get a flatbread!! Don't listen to any naysayers - go experience this awesome place for yourself! read more

Love it!! I'm retired and the Casual Pint is on my schedule at least once a week every week. Great choice of beer on tap and to take home. The available menu of fast food makes for the perfect lunch break and to accompany your beer. A must do! read more

As my friend said don't know how he has stayed in business for six years. I was in there today as first time customer I ordered a chicken quesadilla that said it has Mozzarella cheese, Mixed fiesta cheese, and Feta cheese so I ordered it when I got my order it was nothing on the quesadilla but mozzarella cheese. After work I took it back and was greeted at the counter by a young lady, I explained to her why I was there, I told her that the quesadilla only has mozzarella cheese on it and the web page listed three kinds of cheese. then, used her phone to scan the QR code on the counter she said not that I don't believe you, but I just want to see for myself. she showed me the web page and it said mozzarella I told her that the page I saw had the three cheeses that I listed. she went to the back and got the owner, and he came out, so I repeated what I told her to him. I came in very quiet and discrete not to disturb his customer because that's how I was taught to handle business or a concern. he straight our told me that I was acting like a 12-year-old child because I didn't have three cheeses on my quesadilla, I was quite taken aback by what he was saying to me. I asked him for my money back and he said no that he refused to give me back my money I asked him what you did you say, and he said I will not give you back your money. I told him that he will give me my money because I am calling 911 and he said that when they get here, they will laugh in my face. As I went to my car to get my cell phone, he came behind me and started to google the web page and found what I saw he was then very shocked at what he saw the same thing I was telling him that I saw. as I went back into the store with my phone to call 911, he told me that is why HE DON'T LIKE MY KIND IN HIS STORE. AND I TOLD HIM THAT WAS A VERY RACIST REMARK MY KIND WHAT DO YOU MEAN AFRICAN AMERICAN. THEN HE BAGAN TO STUMBLE OVER HIS LIPS. JUST FOR THE RECORD I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK TO SPEND MY MONEY WITH THE CASUAL PINT. MY FELLOW PEOPLE BECAREFUL WHERE YOU SPEND YOUR MONEY BECAUSE A LOT OF THESE WHITE BUSINESS OWNER DON'T CARE FOR US. I DON'T WANT TO GIVE A RATING BUT THE SITE WOULDN'T LET ME POST UNTIL I PUT A RATE ON HERE. read more

We went to the Casual Pint for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. It was not busy. They have a nice selection beer on tap and the bartender was good at asking me what type of beer I liked and letting me try a few. In addition to the many beers on tap, they have over a 100 in cans and bottles. The Casual Pint is a great place to go for beer but not so much for the food I had a wrap with chicken and apples which was very nice. It was served with the side of sidewinders, which is their version of potato wedges. They were crisp, not greasy and very good. My wife had a hamburger. When our server took our order, my wife asked if the burger could be cooked medium-rare. She replied that the burgers only get cooked one way (all the same). It was served medium-well. The burger was disappointing in that the beef tasted like a frozen pre-done patty you would buy at the grocery store. It did not have a much flavor. I guess our biggest disappointment was that in my wife and daughter's salad. Some of the lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers showed signs that they had been frozen, when we showed this to our server, she took them back and took the salads off the bill. read more

Very good service! I always have a great time here, absolutely love the atmosphere and beer options

So I came here the other day and ordered take-out. The food was phenomenal. We got the garlic wings and the keepin it casual fries. The fries were simply amazing. It came topped with a whole bunch of goodness! I placed my order over the phone and when I got there, the food was ready. The restaurant was clean. I didn't have to wait in line and the staff were super cool. I will definitely be back! I'm telling you, the fries were absolutely amazing the jalapeños, beer cheese, sour cream and chives really set it off. read more

I come here 1-2 every month and it's my favorite bar/restaurant in the Rivergate/steele creek area BY FAR. They have events happening at least 3 times per week (karaoke, live music, trivia) so it makes it very fun. The bartenders are very nice and welcoming! They also rotate the beers pretty often which is amazing! I would recommend !! read more

This is a really cool little spot. Tons of beers on tap, a few wines to make sure everyone is covered, and so many options to buy in store that you could never try them all. A group of us stopped here after dinner and really enjoyed ourselves. The list is a little intimidating but the staff is happy to help. We had incredible service which was a real treat. The patio was heated so we were able to dominate a nice corner without intruding. They are also dog friendly so that is a plus for our return. It didn't have that bar feeling which was refreshing. I'd highly recommend stopping by. read more

I love the Pint! Awesome selection to-go, awesome selection of drafts, I love how they give back to the community & fantastic INVOLVED owners. I come thru several times annually & will be back again read more

This place is just ok. They have a nice selection of beer but you should plan to pay way too much for most draft brews. The decor is pretty generic, and there does not seem to be a genuine love and passion of beer which affects the atmosphere. They have a food menu but I wish that they didn't. Everything seems to be microwaved Costco fair; the only thing worth getting is the egg rolls. They would be better off to have cheap snacks and allow people to bring food in from the surrounding restaurants. Overall I'd say don't waste your time here, go down the road to Carolina Beer Temple. read more

Such a fun place to go with the family. There were games for the kids and great drinks for the grown ups. We enjoyed the food as well.
