    Taps
    Andrew H.

    Definitely has the vibe of a local neighborhood, brewery, to a fault. I planned to stay here, and get some work done, and drink a handful of brews. I ended up just staying for one. The place wasn't very crowded, but the folks running the taps seemed too much more interested in talking to people then refilling my beer, which stayed empty for 20 minutes. Beer was solid, but not mind blowing.

    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.

    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 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.

    Peanuts!

Here's my complaint: Where I choose to sit with my party is my choice James, I don't care if you're hot and sweaty, I'm the customer. Telling me to get my own water is unacceptable. Why you chose to only bring one refill of water to a table of 8 is on you. You might be too delicate for the job James.

    I love a place that lives their motto. "drink good beer, do good things"…read more The place: wide open with plenty of seating inside and out. I feel even if it's packed, there's still ample room to not feel like sardines. The food: delicious in all of their offerings. Fries were perfectly crisp and not oily. The hummus was well balanced and tasty. The beer: my initial only reason to visit. But tasting their offerings had me sold and ready to give them all my money. So here's why they live their motto. The cans we bought started leaking, we went back and asked if the leakage was a problem. They asked a few questions and profusely apologized and gave us two six packs of their beer with no charge. I tried to pay but they refused. They could have just said "sorry to hear" and sent us on our way but they made us whole. Plus, their code of conduct is awesome and should be a standard for all businesses. We're fans forever. Not only of their food and beer, but their values. Thank y'all so much!!

I couldn't stop going for them. The hummus was delicious and served with crunchy soft pita chips and cucumber slices. It was a perfect snack. We may have to go back one more time before we head back to Texas. And we did! We came back at noon for coffee and snacks during a lunch break. The coffee was perfect and the food was delicious! Glad we made it back within 24 hours.

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.

They could not have been more attentive and accommodating. The beer is S-tier good. Both the selections brewed on site and the ones imported from Hanover. They had 3 different Bocks on. I love German styles, but malty is my wheelhouse and they had it more than covered. The Eisbock and Weizenbock were particularly amazing, but I drank around the board and didn't find a stinker. The food, which was largely trad Deustch dishes, was equally fantastic. They have few American dishes for less daring palates. On the same weekend, i hit nearly every other brewery in Loso and Gastonia. Gilde wins by a large margin in terms of beer and food quality. The next best classic Euro themed brewery in NC is Lesser Known in Greensboro. If you like German and Czech styles, these 2 have you covered. I plan to return to Gilde at the end of this month for their 500 year anniversary party. To the German leadership team, thanks for taking a chance on NC. The team over here is doing an amazing job.

    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!

A few years ago, my husband and I watched a beer documentary that followed beer professionals pursuing their Master Cicerone Certification (basically a PhD in beer), and Sugar Creek's owner was one of the people featured. So it felt pretty cool to finally visit the brewery in person and try the beer after seeing his story on screen. When we arrived, it was sprinkling outside, so we decided to duck in and grab a beer while waiting for the rain to pass. Because of the block party setup, beers were served in plastic cups, totally understandable since people were free to roam outside with drinks. My husband went for the Big O IPA, which Sugar Creek is known for, and I ordered the Big O Hazy IPA. Both beers were excellent, bright, flavorful, and super drinkable. I can definitely see why this beer has put the brewery on the map. The vibe of the place was great, inviting from the outside in, with cool decor that felt personal and unique to Sugar Creek. There was a bit of a line to order at the bar, but nothing too bad. Staff were friendly, and the space had a nice energy without feeling chaotic. We didn't eat while we were there (already had a meal beforehand), but we saw other tables getting charcuterie boards and gyros, and they looked so good, definitely something we'll try on our next visit. Overall, we had a great first experience. The beer was fantastic, the space was fun and comfortable, and there's something extra meaningful about enjoying a drink from a place whose story you've followed. Can't wait to come back and try the food next time!
