Mortimer's Pub -- It's Fine Stopped into Mortimer's Pub, and it was... fine. The food was exactly what you'd expect from a pub--no surprises, no frills, just standard fare that does what it needs to do. Service and atmosphere were both steady, nothing out of place. A perfectly okay stop if you're in the mood for something simple and predictable. read more

Walked in to a completely packed bar because of a concert that evening, but quickly noticed how fast and efficient the bartender was. She was handling every person at the bar faster than most people can think ! Clearly she knew what she was doing! We managed to grab two seats at the bar as people began to leave for the concert and within an hour or so, we were the only two there (for a few minutes) which gave us a chance to talk to the bartender more. Her name was Sammy and she was super cool! My wife also bartends and we stayed and talked to her for a while. The food was good, the vibe was cool, and Sammy is an asset that Mortimer's better hold onto tight ! We had a great time ! We highly recommend stopping by here ! read more

It's good, not great. There's lots of signage talking about great service...and this place does indeed have great service...but you order everything at the bar? There's no table service. Weird setup, but it works. 3-stars is mainly for the food which is pretty generic and just OK. Bartender was incredible though, running the show with power, grace, and a smile! read more

Meh. There are so many better places nearby so don't waste your time with Mortimer's. The service is awful. Doesn't matter if they are busy or not, they ignore you when you try to order. Then once you do it takes forever to get your drinks and food. Once the food comes it isn't even worth the wait. Go elsewhere. read more

This place is awesome! Sammy is so friendly and personable. and she is full of energy. We were new to Charlotte and she made us feel like friends! The wings are AMAZING by Sammy's recommendation. We prioritize this place every time we visit Uptown. read more

Oh it was a few Saturday nights ago after Duke game in spectrum. This place is right in front of former epicenter. Don't let the small size of place fool you. Reasonable price cocktails and friendly service friendly bartenders. We definitely going back ! read more

Absolutely horrible from every angle. The service was terrible. They acted like they didn't care if we were there or not. The dining room was hot because they left the door open. The food (we ordered sliders) was greasy and barely warm. $40 of food that was poorer in quality than McDonald's. A must avoid. read more

The food was great for a place that is open late. But they charge an automatic 20% gratuity without clearly stating it before the bill arrives which illegal according to North Carolina General Statute § 105-164.13A. Nowhere on the menu is it clearly stated. Considering all the waitress did was fill up a cup of water at the bar I think that is ridiculous. read more

Wonderful pub! Full bar and live music! Awesome bartenders. Really enjoyed it here. Sat at the bar and enjoyed great company. read more

Mortimer's Cafe and Pub - Bar area - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

One of my favorite spots in Uptown particularly because it seems like there aren't too many places like this left Uptown. Located in the remnants of the once thriving Epicenter you'd be surprised to find that a few tenants have held on. Mortimers is one such tenant and I am thankful for it. One of the first places I grabbed a beer at when I first moved here so it has sentimental value for me. The place exudes a warm and casual vibe that is inviting the way a pub should be. Nothing new age or trendy about it just a good old fashioned local watering hole with friendly bartenders and regulars alike. I enjoy stopping in after work for a few cold beers and the food is enjoyable as well particularly their sandwiches!I'm not sure what the future holds for the Epicenter but I am happy to see that there is still some good leftover and I hope Mortimers is here to stay for the long haul. read more

Mortimer's went above and beyond when I reached out to them about a large party lunch this past week. From allowing us to pre order, to having food ready upon arrival, to having the best attitude and the food being delicious, it was a phenomenal experience. Highly recommend!!!! read more

Mortimer's Cafe and Pub - Our group lunch!! - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Came to Mortimer's for a quick bite to eat and felt the Cafe part was missing while the Pub part was spot on. Menu is pretty extensive but besides greasy bar food all other options are slim! I was trying to do low carb option and decided on salad! Asked about carb content of salad dressings and was told by the waitress to google it as she had no time to check or ask. If that will not get you irritated, perhaps plastic silverware will. Overall-not worth having a meal at Mortimer's unless you are drunk! read more

Great bartenders and food. Drinks are priced well. Very good sandwiches and wings. Only downside is it's warm in there when hot outside.

The only thing that sucked is the fact I don't live in Charlotte. If I lived here, this spot would be a favorite. The bartenders were great and I loved my sidecar. We had the fried macaroni and cheese and they were sooooo tasty. I wanted to order another batch. I had the chicken club wrap and my husband had the hall of phone philly. I loved my food and he loved his. Great job guys! I highly recommend this place. read more

Only had a beer but the bartender was on her game Sammy was her name we were going to the nascar hall of fame

My friend and I took lunch from a convention we were at across the street at the Ritz. Pretty tasty lunch and beer, nice service, and off we went. We had only gone a short distance before noticing smoke in the street and come to find out, there's a fire in the hotel! So as the building (and all of our conference mates) were evacuated and replaced with fire fighters turned out for a high rise rescue operation, we realized we would not be returning to work real soon... so back to Mortimers! Upon our return to Mortimers, we continued to enjoy beverages and friendly conversation, until we learned there had been a shooting right outside! Now the shooter did not get caught and the police were treating it like an "active shooter" situation, and we became locked inside Mortimers. Imagine how upset we were at being locked inside a bar with some nice folks on a workday while our place of business for the day burned.... I'm telling ya we came up aces! read more

Doing their best to reopen.....limited menue and only open a few days a week..... best to call ahead to make sure. Bartenders are super nice and accommodating and remembered me after just one visit. Good spot that now that people are coming out again has a good vibe. Good place to stop in ahead of a Hornets game. read more

Stopped by here before an event at the spectrum center, was promptly greeted and seated. The place wasn't too busy and we had our drink order taken shortly after being seated. We placed our food order and it came out correctly and in a reasonable amount of time. I had the Cuban sandwich, I forget the actual sandwich name, but that's what it was. I enjoyed my sandwich and would definitely go back again to try something else, as they have a great menu. Their sanitation grade was 98 at the time of my visit. read more

Awesome as always! 4th time here with my friends for a chicken tender crawl around uptown and these guys kill it every time. The bartender Daniel is awesome and has great recommendations! Add Daniel's sauce to the menu! Made a Yelp account just to shout him out read more

Food always really good, and Daniel and Sammy are awesome!!!! We always stop here before the Charlotte FC matches!!

Nice little spot in the epi center. We check out the menu before coming. Everything looked amazing so we decided to try there for date night. Lots to choose from in the menu including drinks and drink specials. Local beers are also on the menu. I had the pizza panini with fries. Lots of decor and photos from over the years. Good music playing and the staff were awesome. A must try for lunch or dinner. read more

Food was good. We got the Phili Nachos, Pretzels, and Mozzarella Sticks. All were to be expected. Phili Nachos we're definitely something I'd get again. Drinks were great. Good choice of beer and liquor. It was later so they didn't have any servers but the bartender we had was good. read more

If you're anything like me, after a big a big night out on the town, you want something more than some hors d'oeuvres. I'd say go for the real food- protein-rich, light meal. Roast beef, melted Swiss cheese, and fresh ciabatta roll? YUP. I had the Big Diaw and it didn't really leave a lasting impression, also you're drunk, so basically everything could be impressive at this point. Daily specials: Mon:$2.50 Miller Lite Pints .$4 Mason Jar Cocktails. Tue: $3 Miller Lt. Btls . $6 Vodka Redbull. Wed: $3 Yuengling Btls. $5 Crown Royale.

Fairly crowded on arrival. Live sports radio broadcast event. Was seated in area near bar and told could order from bartender. Others that came in after us managed to get tables and wait staff. Surprisingly bartenders never offered any service. Eventually we found a menu on our own and wrote down our order and carried it to whom I guess was the manager on duty. Food came out promptly. I had the Big Diaw (Roast Beef and Swiss Panini) with kettle chips. I enjoyed the sandwich, Cajun mayonnaise had a bit more spice than expected. Kettle chips tasted as if they came from a bag rather than freshly prepared as expected. Other members of my party had the Philly Cheesesteak also with kettle chips (they made the same comment) and Nachos. The nachos were larger than expected. I'm not sure I would go back with so many other choices in the area. read more

Fun little pub in the Epicenter. The server was nice but they were short staffed. We had the roast beef sliders, chicken parmigiana sliders, and some beers. They were out of a few things on the menu. The roast beef sliders were really good. Some horse radish sauce would have been heaven. But they still hit the spot. read more

Issue with one bartender I just moved to Charlotte and got invited to a hornet's game which was really cool. I walked around the stadium and found a couple of bars that were still open and immediately was drawn to the pub. It's a very nice atmosphere and the selection of food and drink is right up my alley. They had a late night menu which is what I was expecting being that we got there after the game and our pretzel bites were a hit. The only reason I deducted a star is because one of the guys behind the bar wasn't very diligent and told me that I couldn't vape unless Sammy said it was okay. When I started vaping at the bar he gave me a bad attitude about it and said he was giving me a first warning. I explained to him that I asked Sammy like he told me to and she was fine with it. I then asked him for a drink and he nodded at me like he was going to serve me a drink. He never brought me my drink and he never came over to my side of the bar the rest of the night. I had to ask Sammy for the drink I requested and was it in front of me in less then a minute. I will definitely come back again because this bar is awesome and its very close to the spectrum center. I just wish that all the employees could be like Sammy. I appreciate good customer service that is fast and attentive which she excelled at. Overall I will still recommend this place but warn the people about DK. read more

Me, Ben & James stopped in on Friday during the Coca Cola 600 weekend. They shut down all of Uptown to celebrate those left hand turns over at Charlotte Motor Speedway. We were looking for a place to sit outside and enjoy the weather but every place was full. The last place we tried was here and we decided to go inside and wait for an outside table. We were served by Aaron from Lenoir, an Air Force Veteran who has worked there for several years. A friendly fellow though he admitted his allegiance to the Redskins. He noticed my hat and being Memorial Weekend, invited me to sign their Veteran wall. We decided to forget about the outside table and talked Panther and Redskin football with Aaron instead. read more

Came to lunch here when on business trip and the service and food was absolutely amazing! Thank you for going above and beyond for us when we were there. The next time I'm in Charlotte I will be stopping by again! read more

Very welcoming bar. Sammy and Daniel were absolutely amazing. It was top level service and they bent over backwards to make the experience a great one for me. I cannot recommend this bar enough. read more

Mortimer's is a spot I've been to and enjoyed before, and so that saves this rating from being lower. However, the reuben is awful and one of the worst I've ever had. I was looking forward to getting a reuben at Mortimer's as I continued my journey around Charlotte to try them all, but I was very severely disappointed by what was put on the plate in front of me. The menu boasted flash fried corned beef (sounded delicious), but the corned beef on the sandwich lacked any flavor and the person I was with thought it was mushy. The bread was the worst part of the sandwich - it tasted bad. Like maybe it was moldy and had been sitting around for too long kind of bad. It left this awful flavor in your mouth that really ruins your dinner experience. The rest of the ingredients on the reuben were average with decent (probably just normal store-bought) kraut and OK swiss. The proportions were fine, but that doesn't help much when the ingredients aren't very good to start. This is one of the worst reubens I've tried in Charlotte and I'd highly recommend avoiding it. I've had a couple other things on their menu and their far and away better, so if you stop in for food make sure to pick something else on the menu. read more

Mortimer's Cafe and Pub - Reuben from Mortimer's - recommend trying something else on the menu - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

It's loud in here. Loud. Did I mention it's loud? 'Cause it's loud. Now, I admit I may be gauging this on the idea that I hit this place on the equivalent of Super Bowl Sunday around here: race weekend in the Epicentre? Locals would know better, I didn't. But at the very least, I can say I ventured into the belly of the beast for what turned out to be a couple of beers and a BLT. I've since come to understand a couple of what appear to be semi-universal CLT truisms: if it's race week here, expect things to be crowded and loud. And if you're in the Epicentre on race week, expect to be in the middle of loads of corresponding activity. That said, the arrangement here is fine: lots of wrap-around bar, cafe tables and a small outside patio area (so as to take in the festivities). They're doing things by-the-book with the flat screens and some unchallenging menu items, and my guess is that the regulars who stop in are looking for something a little predictable. And predictable would have been fine. If standard was more along the lines of what I was craving. read more

This past weekend, Tim's college roommate was in town for a visit and had never been to Charlotte before so we took him down to the Epicenter to get a little taste of Charlotte. This little visit was on Saturday from around 2-4. We sat outside and enjoyed people watching and chatting. We decided to order a couple of beers and some tasty appetizers. We were totally bad and ordered fries, fried mac & cheese, parmesan encrusted mozzarella cheese sticks, and chicken parm sliders. Yikes... not the best food choices! And on top of that, there was a ton of food! Everything was good... but I would have to say chicken parm sliders & fried mac & cheese bites were my favorites. Since we were outdoors, our service was a bit slow, but not terrible. All in all we had a good time and enjoyed the food & bevvies. We will definitely be back! read more

I promise this review will not be 4 pages long. Very impressed by Mortimer's. The servers were very friendly (I know they work for tips) but it was refreshing to see them having a good time. Nothing I ordered took more than about 5 minutes to shoot of the kitchen. Their wings are about the best I have ever had. Sorry that place that rhymes with DW3 - these guys have you beat hands down with their wings. I ordered a sandwich, drink, and appetizer and STILL didn't spend $20 until I added in the generous tip. "I'll be back" Oh. And I went to Mortimer's specifically because of the Yelp reviews. read more
