Went here to watch the World Cup as they have a huge TV right in front of the bar. I had the north coast red ale which was amazing to pair with the pesto Brie fries. Very fresh and very tasty. read more

Growler's is amazing pub style casual spot. It's loud with both chatter and music. It would be a good place to meet friends for beers and a bite. Our food was just okay. We ordered the kale Caesar, the nachos, and fries. The nacho cheese tasted very processed and they didn't come with salsa. When I asked the waitress for some, she said that they don't actually have salsa. The fries were the best thing we had. I'd go again, but probably just to have a drink. read more

Service was great and it's a fun atmosphere to watch sports. We were looking for the college baseball championship and enjoyed sitting at the bar and watching the game. They have several options for draft beer and a lot of them are local craft brews which we enjoy. We like to support local businesses and so does Growlers. They source their ingredients from local farms! The flavor profiles for the things we ordered were very good but there were a few execution issues. The Carnitas Nachos were good but the chips were not crisp, and the cheese sauce was grainy. The carnitas were tender but could use more seasoning, and once you get past the top layer, it's mostly just chips. I ordered the wings and asked for the three pepper and the jerk. I chose the blue cheese dip and it's the best that I've had in a very, very long time. Thick and creamy with lots of chunky blue. I'd go back just for that. The three pepper was delicious and the wings still had a super crispy skin. Absolutely an excellent wing. The flavor of the jerk is amazing. It's a perfectly balanced blend of sweet and warm spices, but the sauce had been reduced down too quickly and you still got the graininess from the spice. Overall, a few things could be tweaked, but it was a fun experience. read more

Good stop for a bar hop and snack! We always stop here for a drink and a bite and love the dark vibe of the bar and the staff is efficient and kind. The drinks are always quality. The fries with pesto and Brie were probably our least favorite app we have had here but overall, we know the quality of food is good and we will always go back. read more

Came here with some friends on a Sunday afternoon to grab some food and drinks. I had been to growlers a few times before just for drinks and always have a good time. It's a small bar, casual, unpretentious, but with quality food and good service - I love it! Typically filled with NoDa locals and a good place for good bar food if you are in the area. I got wings, a kale Caesar and we got fries with cheese sauce to share for the table. The wings were on special, a great deal and really good! I got their 3 pepper sauce - which is there buffalo and the hot honey. I loved the pepper/buffalo sauce, the hot honey had a bit too much honey for me. Ranch and blue cheese were great. We all asked for the wings extra crispy and they were perfect. I loved the kale salad as well, I just went for no anchovy. Fries were great, I didn't need the cheese sauce, but it was a nice extra we added on. read more

As the name suggests, this place is a bar through and through, and the ambiance is definitely on par with that. Growlers had that classic neighborhood bar vibe. The bartenders and servers are always friendly and helpful, and the food is solid and just what you need to soak up the alcohol. My favorite cocktail is the mezcal paloma. It's such a classic, and anything with Mezcal makes me happy. The loaded potato skins are a solid starter. They are just big enough for two to share. I always find that it needs an extra sprinkle of salt, but other than that, it's delicious. For entrees, I have had the kale Caesar, fried chicken taco and Bologna burger. They are all delicious. The fried chicken taco is a bit messy, but all the elements are there, and it's flavorful. For the Bologna burger, I would request the Bologna well done and swap the Dijon for regular mustard, but it is good. Indeed, it is a great little neighborhood bar. Highly recommend. read more

Growlers in my opinion is elevated bar food ! I Enjoy all of the delicious selections I chose to indulge in with no complaints about anything I tried here . From classic pub favorites like wings and nachos to unique creations like the Pesto Brie fries and more . May I add the roasted oysters here are top notch. There's something for everyone to enjoy this bar is a hidden gem in Noda that should be talked about more . read more

Not a place for vegans like me. There is literally one thing that is vegan and nothing on the menu that they can make vegan. Everything have meat or dairy. It was my first time and I'm never going to come here again and won't recommend to my vegan fellows. read more

My last review was 2010, maybe time for an update. Popped in today to meet some friends, I was middle of the road and fine with going more than excited about it. We ordered oysters, wings and sandwiches. I was pleasantly surprised how delicious everything was. The oysters were some of the best in Charlotte, they tasted super fresh and briny. The wings were perfect and the bleu cheese made it even better. If you are a bleu cheese fan, these wings are a must. We ordered sandwiches, they were layered generously and you could tell these sandwiches were made with care. Not to mention a great seasonal cocktail menu, wine list and a local beer list. Growlers will definitely be on my list my next visit to NoDa. read more

Growlers is a Noda staple and I'm so glad it's part of the neighborhood. Ambiance ranges from cozy to bustling and I love that you can just really choose your own adventure here. You can have the crispiest draft PBR in Charlotte, or you could have a beautifully crafted cocktail. Perfect spot to drop in for a snack, or you can just live large and fill up an entire booth table top with plates of their delicious food. Their burger, nachos, oysters, wings, fries, vegetable crudité are all excellent. I have friends who swear by the various sandwiches. My only tip is that you go in knowing you will leave smelling like the doughnut shop in the back. It's a delicious smell, but there's no way to hide you just enjoyed a trip to growlers! The staff takes care of you for sure. Shout out Kelli especially!!! Kelli treats regulars like friends and new guests with respect! Sometimes it feels like Kelli can read my mind. It's always a pleasure to see familiar faces, but anytime I see someone new here they're always attentive as well. Go visit if you haven't already!!! read more

Growler's Pourhouse (GPH) is one of my favorite places in Charlotte for their immaculate service, cocktails, food, and overall atmosphere. GPH is conveniently located in the heart of NoDA North Davidson and East 35th street right across the street from Protagonist (NoDA), Cabo Fish Taco, and right beside Crepe Cellar (which is soon to be closed). Growler's motto is "What we've got is simple: Craft Beer and Beer Food". Growler's Pourhouse has very moody, dark intimate vibe as you walk through their extremely huge 'Nordic' wooden door; kind of speakeasy-ish. You're greeted by a big round table to the left, in-wall bench seating, a long, high-up picnic like table in the middle with bar stools, and to the right is the curvaceous bar with bar stools. The service at GPH is absolutely on-point and HE was very attentive plus knowledgeable about their products AND MORE. I literally did not have to wait to get another cocktail because my bartender was phenomenal; Definitely top-notch service. I was extremely impressed. The food matches the service being marvelous and shockingly succulent and ambrosial. I had the absolute pleasure of devouring a couple of items on the menu (at an earlier date). I had one dozen FRESH oysters, wings (Wednesday special) which were juicy, crunchy exterior, and sauced up just right; and when they had the lobster roll, I ordered that as well which was all buttered up with an adequate amount of fresh lobster. Everything was prepared exquisitely and I HAVE/WILL be back to try some of the new(er) items. PRO-TIP: Parking sucks in NoDA but I always take the light rail and/or Uber/Lyft. Just make sure if you take the light rail, you take it back home before it stops running! LOL! All in all, Growler's Pourhouse is the 'Sugar Honey Iced Tea' and I would it to my family, friends, and now, YOU! I will continue to be a loyal client and they really do deserve a standing ovation for continuing to galvanize me. Cheers MATE$! ...::: TrizzyO_o :::... read more

I'm always in search of a good reuben and had heard good things about the one here. Came in on an early wknd afternoon and it was not very busy, so we sat at the bar. Bartender started off a little distant and a bit annoyed, but after a bit warmed up. So not sure what that was about, just happy it wasn't that way the entire time. I was a little disappointed in the draft beer selection the day we went as there wasn't a lot of diverse options, especially for a place called a "pourhouse" and they were tapped out of a couple of options too. The reuben was decent, but not amazing and for the price, I will be honest that I've had better. So, all in all, an ok experience, but I'm not racing to go back any time soon. Might stop in again when in NoDa to try some other food & drink options. read more

As a chef, I tend to be a little bit more critical of the places that I go eat because I know the standards that I follow - and sometimes it's a journey to find a really good bar restaurant combo.... but this is the spot! They have a great bar and whiskey selection, and any bar that has big ice rocks or spheres are always a fan in my book! We even put in some requests on alcohols we liked and got some custom cocktails made for us! When You go there, definitely try the brussels sprouts, the fish sandwich is awesome, we had their clam chowder which was perfect... and don't forget about their lobster roll! Legit! -the menu is really well balanced and fits the space perfectly! Next time I go, I'm going to try out their wings! We were roaming around the Mill district looking for a good dinner and a place to sit down and chill..... and the bar offers the perfect balance for people, energy, atmosphere, and service! For an out of towner - this is going to be one of my regular spots I always visit! Go check it out! read more

On a Sunday late night in Charlotte it is very difficult to find somewhere to go. We walked in at 10:55 p.m. and kitchen is open until 11. The bartender told us we had 3 minutes to order and we took advantage of it . We ordered a rueben to share and we were pleasantly surprised. The corned beef was lean, the rye bread fresh and the sauerkraut was not overpowering. We had a drink with our sandwich before their midnight closing time. Our bartender/server was very nice and the entire atmosphere was welcoming. read more

Just finished TWO dozen oysters (Canadian! oysters called Beausoliel) and they are superior oysters! I graduated from LSU and worked in New Orleans. I love good oysters. If YOU do, go to NODA and stop by the Growlers Pour House. Good beer, and a very nice selection of liquor. I had some Talisker Scotch.....a long time favorite. Bethany had a draft called Haze Tron Imperial Hazy IPA plus a Spring Fever Craft cocktail and raved about both. Best oysters in Charlotte!! read more

Came here when I was in Noda a couple weeks ago. The first thing you noticed is they're very interesting and very heavy door, apparently from ancient China, which is cool AF. You walk in and everyone seems to be having a great time and there is cool rock 'n' roll music playing at a nice volume. The beers are good, however, the people who seem like they are having a good time weren't the most welcoming. Just didn't dig the vibe in there. I would give it another shot If Jack beagles and Stu's barrel house weren't staggering distance away. read more

Great food and good ambiance. And incredible location right in the heart of Noda. I love popping in for a drink and an appetizer as I make my way down the strip. I recommend Growler's! read more

Food was delicious, but it was a little dark in there to see the menu ‍(I welcome the old lady jokes). I got the Turkey Avocado sandwich with fries. Gobbled that meal up so fast! Our waitress was nice and very attentive to what we needed. read more

@kenty_eats Love what they did to their burger cooking it via liquid nitrogen. It's cooked in an immersion circulator, which evenly cooks the meat inside-out. The medium rare burger is dropped into negative 321 degree liquid nitrogen for one minute. It's then frozen on the outside, but cooked in the inside. It's then finished by deep frying it which gives the burger a nice crispy bite, yet a juicy burger. FYI, it is only served med-rare!! Parking is your standard NoDa street parking or at the Y after hours. read more

Been coming here for years and ain't a dang thang changed. Delicious, flavorful chicken wings. I always ask for mine extra sauced. The music is always on point and so are the drafts. Service is quick and they always make great suggestions. They have $3 off wings and $2 off drafts on Wednesdays. If you really love yourself, you'll try a Pork Belly taco- sooooo worth it. read more

My mezcal Paloma was amazing. Much bette than a standard Paloma. Our service was pretty quick as well.

Everything was fine except the air! They seem to have a ventilation problem with the donut place. My eyes were stinging, nose became congested, and it was hard for me to sit there because my body was reacting to whatever was in the air (smelled like propane but friend said it's from the oil at the donut place). My friends were also having reactions, but not as badly as me. I saw someone commented about the issue 5 years ago, and I'm sad it's still an issue because it's not okay to have patrons sitting in that kind of environment. read more

Amazing food, great ambiance, but the service was amazing! Kelly is one of the best bartenders I've ever had!

One of the OG bars in NODA, it's always a great vibe here. Cool place to watch the games, but their kitchen pushes out some great food with some eclectic twists. Definitely try their wings as they are some of the best in the city! read more

A quick beer here at Growlers ended up including a half dozen oysters and a Korean pork taco. I'm not sure how that happened. My mouth just ordered delicious things and I just ate them. It's a neat little spot, lots of bashed up wood and it's kind of dark. A neat spot for an afternoon of day drinking, perhaps. Or just a cool hangout here in NoDa if you're looking to try something other than a brewery. Yep, they make drinks here and there's a draft list of about a dozen or so local beers. Cool spot. read more

This place is cool.... for the tacos. I wouldn't think to get tacos at a place like this; however, I highly enjoyed them more than the fries and wings. My friend and I asked for our wings to be cooked crispy. I haaaaate woogly skin. And what kind of skin did I have on my wings? Woogly. I ordered the jerk and the flavor was good, but I guess they weren't jerky enough? My friend tried one and she said they were okay. I tried her spicy wings and they were meh. I make better wings. She also had woogly skinned wings. The spicy wings are not spicy... at all. The Poutine is okaaaay. I shared a basket with my friend and she liked them, but they were missing flavor and salt IMO. I think the gravy wasn't executed well and/or there should have been more bacon. And the cheese curds should probably be cheese sauce. Perhaps this would have added more salt and a little flavor (if the quality of the cheese is good) to the fries. The tacos were fabulous for $4. My fave was the Korean pork belly. There was broccoli on the taco. BROCCOLI! But the flavor was awesome. The other taco was aight. It was just meat and salsa, but it was a whole lotta meat. Kind of reminded me of the roast beef sandwich at Arby's which I don't like. But I'm only referring to the ratio of meat and sauce. I'd go back for the $4 tacos. You really can't beat that price for what you're getting. Also! I'd bring my own bottle of water. What is it with people putting their bare fingers on my straw???!!! read more

This has long been one of my favorite bars in Charlotte. It is small and cozy with a great atmosphere. It reminds me of the types of pubs I've found in Europe. Even the door looks somewhat ancient/medieval which is a nice touch. They serve great pub food including oysters and have a fantastic beer selection. No night out in NoDa is complete unless it involves taking an oyster shot with the group! read more

I began my life as many do, a baby. If I was told then that the best wings of my life would be at a pourhouse I would have coo'd in your face. The extra hot sauce adds a beautiful smokey flavor and heats you up! The blue cheese dressing tones this down with great fortitude. The mignonette on the oysters was decadent. read more

I was here last night and it was great service (my personal first requirement for a good review), the food was great, the selections on the menu were a good selection of food I wanted to try and the overall atmosphere great. There were a couple of residents sitting in their reserved section who were awesome - very welcoming to talk to after I mistakenly sat in their section. The fact that they even have this in appreciation for the business they get with it is very business smart. Give them great service and a little incentive and that results in selling much more product. But it all starts with getting great service. I received great service here. read more

Super yummy oyster selection (4 types) when we came in mid October. Barrel aged Manhattan tasted like listerine from the amount of fernet branca in it. Service was sooo slow and dudes were forgetting stuff from our orders, took forever to get the check, the table wasn't cleaned before we sat, and they forgot to give us back our credit card after running it up so that made this like a 3 for me. read more

This was a cool, cozy bar to hang out and grab a drink in before our show at The Evening Muse. We were happily surprised to see a cask ale available on draft. It was a double cream stout and at $6 we were happy with our choice. Most beers on the large chalkboard posted were between $6-8, a little more than I like to spend but worth it for the atmosphere and location. Service was attentive and quick, I waited just a few minutes. There was lots of seating options at the windows, bar, tables, and it was very full but we luckily found 2 seats. The front door is one of the coolest parts, definitely enjoy swinging open the medieval door. They offer wine, mixed drinks, and food as well. read more

Much better on our second trip to the city. Their tap list was expanded and, while we only had a single beer, it was delicious. We had a Triple C Carolina Sherbet. Had two burgers from them in the span of three days. I did give it 4/5 because the cheese wasn't melted on it either time. It was just placed on it after it was taken off the grill which is an oversight on the kitchen staff. It needs to be put on while it's still on the grill and allowed to melt before the burger is assembled. Staff was nice this time. Cash accepted. read more

Well hello cute little beer bar you. I have nothing but good memories and thoughts about this place. Sunday afternoon....hanging out with great friends....and my new favorite seasonal beer that they offered. It was called *tearing up* Punta Pumpkin. I wanted to jump in my glass...and do a lazy river float as I sipped on it. And then licked the cinnamon sugary goodness off the rim. O.M.G. Loved it so much, a friend brought me a little glass of that sugary goodness because I licked the stuff off the rim too soon. So good. Such a nice way to spend a sunday afternoon! read more

I went to Growlers today to watch the disappointment that was the Bears game, it was pretty dead in there except for a few randoms at the bar and a big party smack dab in the middle of the place. Exposed brick wall with a small bar area and four to five booths, for some reason I thought it was going to be larger than it was (that's what she said) but it was a pleasant atmosphere. We were automatically greeted by our server who asked if we've ever been there then continued to tell us about their beer, food, etc. I thought it was really interesting that they make their own sausage there-you don't see that too often and I am intrigued by the process. They have a nice selection of beers on taps varying from IPAs to pilsners to stouts plus some with high alcohol content (7 and 10.3% I believe). I have a Living Social deal for there for $30 worth of food and drink, which is awesome. I love bargain booze! We got the dip platter to start out with. They have a dip platter for $13 and you get to pick three dips off of their menu, we picked the pimento cheese, real french onion dip and roasted vegetable. *Pimento Cheese dip. It tasted good but it wasn't the traditional creamy pimento cheese dip that I'm used to. Plus the tortilla chips didn't hold too well when you scooped it up. *Real French Onion Dip. I am still wondering what makes it "real", this was my favorite dip. I love the minced onions in it and the chips served with it were perfect. *Roasted Vegetable Salsa. This was second runner-up and packed a lot of different flavors. We asked the server what it included because we couldn't tell what the distinct flavor was and she said it was probably the variety of peppers used in it (poblano, jalapeno, bell) and coriander. My mouth wasn't on fire but I sure did enjoy the flavor We had a Turkey Apple sausage to split afterwards along with a side of purple slaw (I dare you not to sing Purple Slaw to the tune of Purple Rain if you order this) and mac n cheese (thanks Melissa B for the suggestion!!) Alright, lets talk sausage (that's what she said-ZING-again!). So it's homemade and it tasted that way consistency wise. It had more water or whatever juice is in the sausage casing (please don't tell me what it is if you do know what said juice is) than I cared for. Plus when you took a bite into it, you couldn't separate it with a simple bite, you had to gnaw at it and shake your head a bit. Very Neanderthal like. Thank god I wasn't with a gentleman caller b/c it was not a pretty sight. Regardless, it was tasty just a little difficult to break up. Purple slaw was good--more vinegar based than mayo but could have used more herbs or spice. Mac N Cheese----ooey, gooey delicious. I added some black pepper to mine but it was the perfect combination of cheesy goodness and cooked pasta, All in all, I will be coming back to Growlers for sure. We had all of that plus a couple of beers for $30. You can't beat a value like that! read more

Good spot in Noda that's fairly under the radar. Tables are typically first come, first serve with no host to handle seating. They have high quality bar food and a fun PB&J special (a PBR and a Jameson shot combination, if you're feeling into it). Also a great beer selection which is to be expected in this neighborhood. Outside of having good food, I like that this is a pseudo sports bar in Noda. It's a great place to watch a game. read more

Visited Growlers Pourhouse to watch the Panthers defeat the Titans, 9-0!
