    Cute little craft brewery in Charlotte. Parking is available in a small lot or on the street. Indoor and outdoor seating available. No food options other than a food truck but they do have bowls of peanuts on the picnic tables outside. They offer year round,seasonal and limited release beers so a nice selection. Tried their Rewind Lager (4% ABV). Very light and refreshing. Definitely a fun way to enjoy a lazy Sunday afternoon!

    Nice spot. I've been attempting to hit up a majority of the breweries in Charlotte and this was my next stop. Nice selection but a lot of IPA's. Maybe that's the norm anymore and hate to ding them on that. I'll drink about anything but I like more of a variety at my "go to" breweries. Staff was great and there is plenty of seating in and out. I could frequent coming here.

    Nice neighborhood brewery with plenty of seating indoors and out. There was a DJ spinning tunes in a private party room. The restroom was clean and stocked. Free parking adjacent to the space. I had a kombucha and my husband tried Rewind lager. Both were cold and refreshing. There are no servers so just belly up to the bar to order under the cute hanging birdies.

    Check out this amazing patio!

    Oh my goodness, this place was amazing! The vibe was so welcoming and there are so many different areas to enjoy a good beer. This was very dog friendly, and people were all so inviting and friendly. The beer is good, the service is good, the entire venue and field of the place was excellent! Try it out!

    Still an awesome place to visit! Parking is very easy, as they have their own lot. Dog friendly indoor and outdoor, nice large space to sit, plenty of beers to choose from, including year round and small batch beers. Service is always friendly, and the atmosphere is always laid back.

    I'm not a brewery fan, give me a winery any day. However I was here for a special event, and I had their blueberry strawberry sour and it was so delish and refreshing. Place was spacious and very clean. They had a live dj going and a food truck, so I can definitely see it can be a fun place to meet up with some friends and just vibe out when weather is great.

    Fine selection of beers to drink onsite whether from the tap or the can and in a nice environment both inside or outside. I took half a Friday off and me and my better half went to NoDa for some Cabo tacos and then headed to Birdsong on what was a beautiful NC spring day. I like beer but don't like IPAs. I've just got whatever gene it is that makes a person especially sensitive to bitter and that feels like all I can taste with an IPA. Even with Lagers, Pilsners or other less hoppy brews beer makes me feel bloated so on this visit I ordered one of their seasonal special Sours, Strawberry Lemonade. That turned out to be an excellent choice and loved that I could go back inside and buy two four packs to take home. There's so many great breweries in CLT, we are truly fortunate. Birdsong is one of them and I'm glad they're here doing what they do.

    Mexicali Stout is phenomenal!!
    Megan F.

    This is my review of the phenomenal and wonderful Mexicali Stout beer!! I love this beer so much! The flavors of coffee and cinnamon and chocolate tasted divine! I loved the combination of flavors and it is like a liquid dessert in a glass. This one is my favorite one and I know it's seasonal so I drink a bunch when it's available late Oct-January. I wish they had it all year!! It is a wonderful beer paired with Mexican food too!

    Birdsong is open for takeout
    Bruce K.

    "Take Out Beer" the sign said. Dang it, here I am and I'm thirsty and I also have a takeout burger from nearby Ace Number 3. The parking lot is neatly lined up with empty kegs to flow the traffic in a single queue up to the tent where two very nice dudes (wearing gloves) were lined up to swipe credit cards and deliver beer. I asked that they put it in the trunk, thanks. Birdsong's Jalapeno Pale Ale is a treasure. Just a light hint of the spice and otherwise a tasty pale. It's amazing. Stop by and pick some up to enjoy during your self-isolation. [Review 13065 overall, 382 of 2020.]

    Birdsong Brewing is a really good brewery! They have a good variety of beers available for all types of beer drinkers. Love the Jalapeno Ale! A good amount of seating is available inside, but there are also picnic tables and seating outside on the patio. Staff is super friendly and helpful! There is a parking lot available at the brewery, but if full, then there is street parking in the area. Birdsong does not have a kitchen for food, but has a food truck outside where you can purchase food. A definite must try if you have not been.

All of them were really good with the hazy pale ale and the vanilla coffee blonde being my favorites. Cool art of the Wooden Robot could be found throughout the brewery. My only regret is that I didn't buy a t-shirt.

Despite the crowd, it was quick to get drinks at any of their bars (under 5 min wait in line). Unfortunately, I also wanted food and that wait was extremely long. You can order food on their app or at one of the registers on the 1st floor. The cashier ringing me up quoted me 45 minutes before taking my order. It ended up being 70 minutes. I ordered a chicken Caesar wrap and it came with a side. I picked fries. They text you when the food is ready to be picked up. The wrap and fries were average and definitely not worth the wait. My friend got their pretzel sticks appetizer. Her food was delicious. All the employees were in good spirits! The brewery is indoors and outdoors with tables sprinkled throughout. After 20 minutes of searching, we found a table inside. I would try this place again simply for their pretzel sticks, but would make sure it's not during a busy game day if I'm super hungry.

I scored a…read morefirst-class upgrade on the flight in, Enterprise ran out of standard cars and handed me the Keys to a convertible, and I ate the best grits of my life topped with Milwood's crispy brisket. That was just half a day in, so naturally, I started feeling like Charlotte had passed me a note, "I like you, stay longer." The one thing I failed to respect was the Carolina summer sun. I desperately needed a hat. Sure, I could have gone to Target or the bike shop I passed earlier, but any civilized man knows the best place to buy a cap is a brewery. Untappd pointed me toward one of the most popular breweries in a city full of popular breweries: Burial Beer Co. Since I was driving, I kept things responsible and sampled taster-sized pours, spacing them out with non-alcoholic mocktails and 0.0 beer like a grown man who still wanted to remember where he parked. Burial also offers cocktails, ICEEs, low-ABV session beers, THC beverages, wine, and self-serve water. The menu helps you navigate the offerings with color-coded sections: cocktails in blue, light-bodied beers in neon green, dark ales in orange, and high-ABV options in pink. Food isn't available onsite, but delivery gets the green light. I grabbed a corner seat at the bar, not because I wanted to brood, but because the post-brunch crowd had arrived in full force with babies, buddies, and dogs. Every bartender and guest I spoke with treated me like I had wandered into a neighborhood clubhouse instead of a brewery. They gave recommendations, bought me a drink, and one even helped me pick out a hat. Southern hospitality is alive and well at Burial Beer Co., a place that turned a shopping trip into a welcome party, proving that Charlotte knows how to beat the heat with good pours, good people, and better merch.

    Updated Review (2026):…read more We've been coming to Gilde since they opened their doors in 2022. When we first began coming, they served delicious authentic German food. Unfortunately, they've changed their menu a dozen times and have removed our favorites from the menu (the original braised pork (they changed it over time, but the original was amazing) and the goulash) :( They have slowly evolved their menu into bar food to cater to the party-going crowd as their street has become more trafficked -- which now means a greater likelihood of having to succumb to the paid parking garage. We're big fans of their beers and did a brewery tour & tasting when Gilde was at its peak. Their beers are the reason I at least give them 2 stars: the pale wheat and red rooster are especially delicious. We even spent our NYE 2025 there and did the stein-holding competition. We've tried new things on the menu, desperate to give them more tries... but we keep ending up disappointed. For example, the steak sandwich is not a steak sandwich, but rather a kebab. We've driven the 40 min drive to go there and show up and then they are closed for a private event (with no notice on their social media). We have also brought friends there and have waited an hour for a server. Last Mother's Day, we showed up for dinner at 7:45 p.m (sure, that's a tad late.. but we left our home at 7) and were told the kitchen was already closed. This Mother's Day, we waited 45 minutes, with no updates or warnings, to be seen by a server. When we tried to place our order, we were told that we couldn't yet place our food order and that we had to order drinks separately because their kitchen was slammed. I'm no expert, but why not still accept customer's orders and speed up the kitchen by bulk-cooking? Can't multiple brats be made at once? Or larger portions of sauerkraut or bacon? Also, only a third of the tables were taken.. so that sounds like some poor kitchen capacity. When we were finally served our food (still took awhile even after putting in the food order), they had served my husbands meal 10 min before mine and then I was served mine.. and it turns out they still had forgotten about our daughter's French toast and had to START it. The disorganization or perhaps just lack of effort/care has gotten ridiculous. So disappointed at the way our favorite restaurant went downhill!

This one closes at midnight, but that was enough time for us to start with one round there. There was a private event going on the patio, so we sat inside. It was not very crowded to fry an open space with some high tops and normal tables. We sat at a booth and ordered a few drinks and a couple sausage. I had one of the THC drinks, the blueberry fizz and my friend ordered the margarita and beers. We enjoyed our food and drinks and had a good time hanging out with one another. I think it would be nice to return when the patio is not closed so we could sit outside and enjoy the weather. Good service, plenty of parking available. @azfitfoodfun

    HUGE thank you to Legion…read more Our company, Opkalla, held its big team Midyear dinner at Legion last night (which I'm responsible for planning), and I was absolutely blown away by the entire experience planning with Gabby, through the event itself for about 50 people. Before I even get into the event itself though, none of it would've been possible without Gabby being such an absolute joy to work with throughout all of the planning leading up to it. During the planning phase she made my life about 100 times easier instead of harder, which is saying something because that's definitely not always the case with venues and I've experienced the other side of that coin elsewhere! From the second we arrived, we were treated with genuine attention and enthusiasm (not to mention, HUSTLE!) I was running around so much all day that I can't believe I'm blanking on a couple of the girls' names now...I remember Kayla's name specifically for some reason...but EVERY single server, bartender, etc working our event was absolutely AMAZING. (As an aside, I worked in hospitality for years, so I know firsthand how much goes into pulling off a private event like ours. Legion's team last night made the entire evening seem effortless.) Drinks were flowing and refilled so quickly, everyone was constantly checking in with me to see if we needed anything, the food was fantastic, and while I didn't catch his name in the middle of all the celebrating, the steak carver you assigned to our event was such a great guy too and SO wonderful with our team. I genuinely can't find the right -- or enough -- words to explain how impressed I was with the entire experience, from the planning process all the way through the end of the night. This was probably the first large team event I've been responsible for, whether at Opkalla or any previous company, where I actually got to relax at times during the event and almost felt like a guest instead of just the planner!! You have no idea how refreshing that was. (Not that I would've minded running around putting out fires if I had to; that occasionally just comes with the territory and was definitely the case earlier that day prior to Legion!) Legion handled everything so seamlessly that I barely had to do any "work" during the event beyond enjoying the evening and checking in with our team. It was obvious everyone had everything they needed, and even more obvious that everyone was having an absolute blast. Thank you again for making this such an incredible experience. It was truly one of the smoothest, most enjoyable events I've ever been a part of, and that's a huge credit to Legion's events team and serving/bartending staff. I can't wait to work with them again for future events, and to recommend them to others I know who are often in need of event venues! THANK YOU AGAIN, GABBY AND LEGION!
