I was nervous to go to BIn 110 as there aren't a whole lot of people who look like me in the Lake Norman area, and it's hard not to be aware of that in today's climate. But, I was treated with kindness and respect from the moment I sat at the bar. I was made to feel like any of the regulars who trickled into the bar. I had a great conversation with the bar manager and bar staff -- as well as some of the best cocktails I've had in a while. In addition to having pours of hundreds of whiskeys, Bin 110 has an exceptional craft cocktail menu: I recommend the espresso martini which they can make as a classic, with bourbon, or their specialty salted caramel version. The salted caramel is great too. And the bananas foster old-fashioned was nice. I thought it'd be too sweet but it was perfect. You can enjoy live music, food, and more at Bin 110. It's a nice spot to grab drinks before an outing, a laid back date night, or to just shoot the sh*t after work, at great prices, too. I'll be back! read more

Finally made it to Bin 110 after a coworkers recommendation. Figured if she comes all the way from Concord it's got to be worth a shot. The space itself is inviting with really comfortable chairs around a pretty bar area. We haven't been there on the nights they have music but understand Friday night is more classic rock and louder vs Thurs/Sat. We each had two gin cocktails. The Clover Club and Bee's Knee's. Both were tasty to sip and pretty to look at. Appreciate very much the bartenders recommendation on the Club as she described it perfectly. The overall cocktail/spirits menu is fairly extensive and there were quite a few that sounded very good. We got a couple apps, the Nashville Hot Chicken flatbread and Grilled Cheese that came with tomato bisque as a dip. Both were decent but we agreed we'd come here more for the cocktails, wine, ambiance and service than for the food The owner came by and introduced himself after he saw I had posted a Yelp pic :) of the Clover Club. Really nice fellow and I would chalk him (Andy) up as one more reason to come. All in all, we're glad we visited and we look forward to having Bin 110 on our rotation. read more

Bin 110 - Clover Club. Nice gin drink - Wine Bars Near Me - Cornelius, North Carolina

Nice staff and great drinks and food. Very nice atmosphere. They have over 300 kinds of drinks. The DJ was amazing.

Flatbread pizza. Brisket mushrooms and a bourbon. Wow. Exceptional. Service was great as well

We came here last night around 8pm. We walked in, seated ourselves, and looked around for a bit. After a couple minutes, a gentleman took our order -- an espresso martini with tequila ($27... nasty work) and a Michelob Ultra for myself. I said I'd need a few minutes to decide on a cocktail. About 40 minutes later, and that's no exaggeration, nobody had come back to check on us. Not even once, lol. I live just 5 minutes from here, but unfortunately I won't be coming back anytime soon. read more

Came here for a local Bourbon club event. Andy, the owner, is a nice guy with some sweet bottle pics. Take your time to look at the bottles they have. Go with a flight if you want to try a few things. read more

A friend and I decided to mix it up from our usual spots on a Saturday and venture to Bin 110. They had live music with a great band that brought out all of the good bar songs. However, it was too LOUD for that small of a space and very crowded. The bar staff was friendly and attentive. Sometimes an extensive drink list means slow drinks, but not at Bin 110. Everything was great in that regard. It was getting to be about 11:30pm and 2 men decided to have a brawl. Frankly it was disturbing. No security working at Bin 110 and you could tell the staff was overwhelmed. Honestly with so many people in a small space, I was scared. These guys were throwing each other on the ground. When the instigator was allowed back in the bar and a SECOND fight broke out I decided I was done. I could not have an enjoyable evening in a small space with a blaring band and fighting men. I would not come back here for the live music nights. I think this would be a fun bar for an after work experience but frankly I don't trust the LKN party scene to venture back here on a weekend night. I would highly recommend security staff for Bin 110. read more

I have actually been there several times over the past year. Over priced and lacking a good drink menu. No menu found for the wines. You can sell an old fashioned for $8 and still make a hefty profit. You're not doing anything special. Drink menus should not be solely on a QR code and could afford the cost of printed menu. Seems like another business taking advantage of the customer knowing with some clever verbiage with some smoke and mirrors, they can over charge for some alcohol. Money not experience seems to be their bottom line. read more

Bin 110 has been one of our favorite spots for music and drinks. I love the new bar and expanded space! Now it's time to get the drinks right. More options and better pours please. We are paying a premium for this and are happy to do so but a small cocktail glass and only 3/4 full won't cut it. Come on Bin 110 you can do it! I want to give you 5 stars after my next visit !! read more

I have learned a lot since I have been in Charlotte. If you go to a bar and they dont serve food you have to become a member in order to drink. However most places will not disclose that. Well let's get to talking about Bin 110...they are a husband and wife team that have an amazing bar with a good vibe. The cocktails are good and strong and they even have drink special and live bands that come into perform. But they are small so if you are looking for a cozy place to have a cocktail with a small group of friends this is the place for you. read more

Neat place for the area it is in! We went here one night for a friend's 24th b-day. We wanted a more relaxed, cocktail bar and this was spot on! We will be back soon. read more

I've been looking for a new place to go to since January when my regular place shut down. The only reason why I'm giving it two (2) stars is because the staff was extremely friendly, nice & knowledgeable. Overall liked the place; but it was loud to no end with the band. I don't like the fact that they are apparently desperate as hell to make money. Got a pitcher of water to go with my drink which was good & was than told, when I went to refill it, that the management doesn't want the staff to do that; they would hand out bottled water so they can charge you for it. Never had this happen to the places that I've been to. It's not a good look when a place charges for water when they already charge a certain amount for alcohol. I'd be happy to spend time & money at this location if I can balance water to alcohol consumption. Needless to say I won't be back. read more

Good: nice people. Band is good and crowd is mixed, so all inclusive. Bad: measured pours. When paying $18 or $25 per shot that's just poor policy. Not expecting 2 shots worth, but when watching you exactly measure... definite downer. I'm from CA and even we don't do that... ever... and our drinks are the same prices. Never saw this in NC until here. If you just drink beer this is your place. We won't likely return. read more

Nice private club burboun bar. Bartenders were great, drinks were made very well. This is a pricey night out so expect to drop some coin. They say they have food but not really. Id suggest you get dinner at one of the other local spots then come partake for drinking and rebelrousing. The space is tight but they do have an outdoor patio area. Live music was fun and entertaining. read more

What a nightcap!! This was the best choice of the weekend. Not only does this place know a little something about bourbon, they really know how to make a fantastic drink. The owners, Talley and Andy, are the best and made us feel so welcome and comfortable. I am going to make it a point to go as often as possible to enjoy more of the many, many selections of bourbon and the atmosphere. Live music on Thurs, Fri and Sat. read more

Drinks were really good. Service was good for the most part and food was ok as well. Weird interaction at the end of the night. I had asked my server maybe 3 times for a water. Each time she said "sure I will grab that" but never did. Maybe 30 minutes later someone came to clear the table and I said "hey I asked the server for a bottle of water, could you grab that for me please" and instead of any pleasantry the lady looked at me and goes "maybe your server is busy, she has like 7 drinks right now" and I responded "too busy to drop a bottle of water for the last 30 minutes?" Anyway, it was a weird interaction that lacked customer obsession. Kind of ruined what was a decent vibe. read more

Life is way too short for bad bourbon and that's exactly what you will not find at Bin 110 at Lake Norman. Tallie and Andy Upchurch have the most amazing collection of Bourbons you will find - those you love and those which are hard to find. Bin 110 is a must stop if you like fine spirits, great company, and superb hospitality! Simply the Best Overall Bourbon Bar (and more) at the Lake!!! read more

Great neighborhood bar along with an amazing selection of bourbon and wine! Locally owned and they have the best bartenders in town, ask for Paige, Laura or Logan! read more

Stumbled upon this place after an awkward experience next door at on the Roxx. They welcomed us in. We're interested in what they could do to make the best experience for us. Everyone behind the bar is amazing and can make whatever cocktails you want. An amazing wine list, bourbon selection, cocktails, martinis and beers. The owner is in a lot and is always behind the bar helping out or running around doing whatever they need. They do live music as well. Something for everyone and definitely worth checking out. read more

The only thing that I am disappointed in... is that this place has been off my radar for some reason. I only checked this place out bc a friend of mine loves bourbon and always ends up somewhere with me drinking cheap beer instead. I heard this was a bourbon place and ended up meeting him and a few others there on a Thursday evening. We were the only ones there and we sat at the bar and chilled for a couple hours. The wine selection is nice... very nice actually. Most of it is a little more high-end than a lot of places around here but the vibe suits the prices. And there are a few options if you are looking for something a little cheaper, in the $8-12$/glass range. And Prosecco on tap... Now... I don't drink bourbon. Or I should say that I didn't. I'm sure if I were a bit more adventurous and classy when it came to drinking anything but wine and cheap vodka, I would have grown to appreciate bourbon sooner. Anyways... their selection is great. My buddy let me try whatever amazingly smooth (and pricey) pour that he had and now I am just gonna have to head back and try all the stuffs at this point. Another buddy told me they do some $20 tasting events every now and then. I will definitely be sure to check that out whenever I can I went back for a quick stop this past Saturday evening and the place was bumpin... A great crowd with live music. It was nice to see a good scene in there and I look forward to heading back to spend an evening there. read more

My wife and I are now regulars. The owners have done an excellent job curating an awesome wine list while keeping the vibe cool with lots of live music. Great beer selection too. We have also attended a bourbon tasting and two wine tastings here and all were great times. Good crowd, good people and well run establishment. I highly recommend Bin110. read more

Went here for a little after dinner drink for a birthday and was not disappointed in any way. Server was VERY knowledgeable about the spirits and suggested several for our party to try. Got to enjoy some very good bourbon ( Hello Blantons! ) and a nice cigar on the patio with our group. Very fun place to spend an evening. read more

Great bourbon bar. Live music Is almost always solid. Unfortunately when they get busy If you're at a table you are screwed - No designated seeVer for tables. read more

Small space, limited drink menu if you don't like beer. Live music on weekend was nice.

Staff was knowledgeable about the whiskey and was great about pouring a flight. The music was great.

What a hidden gem....never been here before but came on the suggestion of a friend. If you love good beer, wine, whiskey, or bourbon, this is the place for you! Our bartender Paula was amazing...very knowledgeable on all spirits we ordered. Small bites available so I wouldn't suggest if you are looking for dinner. My husband claims it's the best old fashioned he's ever had. We will definitely be back! read more
