piero was an amazing bartender. he even took the time to explain each ingredient of the drink to me. he is a true representation of a platform sports worker. read more

Pretty good food never really ate a lot i'm all about the drinks, but the atmosphere and ambience is nice. I'm into big sport boxing, basketball, football, soccer. They got the big TV action....Anything hanging with my peoples very nice place. read more

It's okay. Not a huge fan of the auto tipping. Wish they had draft beer but maybe they couldn't with the buildout. Food was decent, service was decent. Very bright though. Great TVs and sound read more

Came here to catch some college football and this spot delivered. Tons of seating, TVs everywhere--no bad view of the game. Tried the Hot Honey and Nashville Hot wings--both were good. Super crispy, super fresh. Parking took a minute--lot was packed--but once we got inside, it was smooth. Service was fast even with the game-day crowd. Great vibe, solid drinks, and quick service even on a busy game day. read more

Platform Sports - Wings - Sports Bars Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Great spot watch sports. Large space, plenty of TVs every where inside and outside. I advise to make a reservation for a primo spot, but even in doing so it's not guaranteed as we found out. Service is on the slow side. The apps we tried were good! read more

More of a club tonight than a sports bar. My husband and the fellas checked out this spot a week ago and he wanted me to try a particular flavor of wings that he enjoyed. This spot is conveniently located in the up and coming area of South End and literally at a light rail station. There was a private party on the outdoor patio on the third floor so we couldn't sit outside and get the view of the city that's a big appeal for this spot. We were greeted by what felt like a bouncer who checked IDs immediately after getting off of the elevator. Our server was ok...she was kind of quiet but after watching her interact with other tables, I determined it was just her personality. Hubby and I both had wings; he had sweet chili and I tried the honey old bay that he raved about. We shared garlic Parmesan fries. The wings are really good...flavorful and cooked to perfection. The fries were also tasty. There are two reasons why I rated this spot a four versus a five. First, they have to fix their condensation issue with the AC. Several vents were dripping onto tables. With North Carolina summer temps putting demands on AC units, this is a must fix issue. My drink (a French 75 with vodka rather than gin) was fine but hubby did not really enjoy his Old Fashioned and ended up switching to a beer. Will I go back? Absolutely! I can't wait to watch a football or basketball game. I failed to mention there are HUGE screens everywhere so I'm sure it's a great vibe on game nights. read more

We went to this place on a Sunday and it is a cool spot for sports. They have TVs everywhere, indoor and outdoor. They had a lot of reserved tables but still had plenty of places to sit without reservations. The drinks were good and we ordered wings and salads and all were good as well. Overall good vibes, good drinks, and good food. It's just hidden and not able to be seen from the street so you really have to look to find this place read more

I'm wasn't here long but it was nice to see what people have been talking about. I was at an event next door and we came to Platform for a drink after. There was a lot of people with our party so it was nice they were able to sit us; we did overflow from our table and were able to sit at a reserved table for about 30 minutes which i appreciated the staff flexibility with that. Waitress was attentive and the food looked good that some friends ordered (I only got a NA drink in a can, a can and the flavor the waitress suggested was bomb) read more

This is a great place to go to watch a lot of games. Plenty of tvs and seating area. Overall the service was slow and it was difficult to order a new drink, get napkins, etc. the buffalo chicken flatbread was insanely spicy with too much buffalo sauce. The pizza was drowning in it. I love buffalo spice, but this was a new level, no amount of blue cheese or ranch could fix it. The summer bliss drink was strong but not that flavorful. I would not go here for quality food or drinks but they did have on a lot of sports games. The view of the city is great from the rooftop. They do have large booths inside you can rent out with a $500 minimum if you wanted to stay a while. read more

The lack of parking for a sports bar of this size is disappointing. If you plan on visiting, ride share, or take the Light rail. The interior is modern & there are plenty of screens. It gets super busy during NFL games, so get there early if you expect to sit down. The food was just okay for me. My Philly cheesesteak wrap was a bit on the greasy side. read more

Went on a Thursday - preseason game night. There was a little buzz but not packed. Service is super slow. Our table sat with dirty dishes for well over 30 minutes and it wasn't busy at all. My friend's burger and fries were super greasy - my wings with different fries were great. My other friend loved the buffalo chicken dip. Go early or uber. There isn't much parking. read more

Platform Sports exceeded expectations. The food was flavorful, and the drinks were perfectly refreshing. I went with the "High Steaks Strip," a grilled New York strip steak paired with balsamic-drizzled Brussels sprouts (a tasty upgrade from the usual baked potato). I opted for a medium cook, and the steak, seasoned with herb butter, was one of the best I've had at a sports bar. It was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The Brussels sprouts were delightfully crispy, just the way I like them, and the balsamic glaze added a sweet tangy touch that never disappoints. Note: They do include a 20% automatic gratuity on all bills, regardless of party size. #GratuityAdded #PlatformSports #NYStrip #SteakCLT #PlatformSportsBar. #PlatformSportsCLT #Bigscreens #CLTRooftops #CLTNightLife #eatdrinkclt #newspotscharlotte #MLKClt #CLTVegetarian. #capricornszn #CharlotteEats #CharlotteFoodScene #fypclt #fypcharlotte #charlottefood #charlottenc #cltfoodie #queencity #charlottesgotalot #eatdrinkclt #exploreclt #charlottefoodies e #cltfoodies #issawrap #discoverclt #cltguide #charlottefoodguide read more

My friend and I came here for a love island watch party. There are plenty of seat indoors and outdoor. Tv see everywhere which is perfect for a sports bar. They had a love island drink menu. I don't drink but they were able to make one of the drinks a mocktail which I appreciate. I also ordered pizza. The pizza was good nothing crazy read more

One Saturday afternoon we headed to Platform to see what the hype was about. It's in a great location and the tvs are enormous. We ordered a few drinks. One of the drinks, a spicy grapefruit concoction, was quite literally the worst drink ever made in the history of mixology. Hopefully, they'll take it off the menu soon. The server was nice, although the service was slow. A few ladies randomly passed out free Hennessy shots to anyone interested. All in all, it seems like a decent place to visit and with a group of friends to watch the game. read more

Been here a couple of times now decent vibe with a bunch of tv's haven't tried the food but they usually have some weekly drink specials. Outside patio seating as well with a decent view as well. Bartenders are pretty good just a solid sports bar to check out if in the area they can get pretty packed on the weekends. read more

Came to watch an NBA playoff game on a weeknight and had a good experience. Easily accessible from South End via rail trail. They have 3 huge walls of TVs, one of which is outside which is great for when the weather is nice. Their outdoor rooftop space is so nice. Only grabbed a couple beers so can't speak on the food but there seemed to be a lot of variety on the menu. They were also having trivia night which is every Tuesday. Would definitely come back for future sports games! read more

Do you want to have a good time? Be in a fun and exciting atmosphere while not missing out on any games? The screen is massive. The venue holds plenty of people. The owners are wonderful and personable. The food was great. I had the calamari and my husband had the buffalo chicken flat bread. We sent empty plates back. We also got a chance to meet the head chef. He told us about his experience and how its been opening Platform Sports. The balcony is scheduled to open later this month. I can't wait to come back and enjoy the night air (if it's not too cold). The DF was great. He played a mix of everyone's favorite music. I didn't mind that the music was turned up and the games were muted. I could focus on my game but when commercials came on, I could check out another game. If you want to have a good time, please give them a try. read more

Platform was a really fun sports bar, and a great place to watch a day of football! I loved the outdoor seating area, which was perfect for a beautiful fall day. The indoor aspect wasn't quite as unique, but still served as an awesome sports bar environment. All of the staff were really nice, and that had a fine-enough selection of beers. I'd definitely recommend stopping in to Platform if you're looking for a place to watch the day's sporting events! read more

We went last night and had the pepperoni pizza and Brussel sprouts and two drinks. The pizza was fine but the Brussel sprouts were trash. We told the server to take them back. She had an attitude and they only refunded half the amount. With a 18% automatic gratuity added to the bill this place is not worth it. read more

I'm really late with this post but I visited during the NFl playoffs season. Vibe was cool, drinks were chill, food was at PAR and I love the outdoor atmosphere. It's the perfect place to go for sports watching and trash talking. Definitely will be going back. read more

Came here for the Tar Heel v Blue Devil game. Definitely was packed and had to wait but the screens had the games playing and made the time fly by. I had the smash burger which I would say is fairly priced. Fries were good but not the best I've had but I'm a fry lover and critique hard. Wish I didn't have to ask for silverware but all in all a great place to eat and catch the games. read more

I am confused. It's 11:37 on a Saturday. Doors are locked. When do you open? Weird experience.

Greeted nicely by the hosts. If the place is packed they allow you to sit in the bar until a table opens up. They also will send you a text once table is ready. Saw the broncos lose in OT by the bengals while having the mozz moons. All of the food was amazing. No complaints from appetizers, entrees, & deserts. read more

This place was packed! I love the concept... multi games streaming at once. It gives Las Vegas casino vibes right here in Charlotte. It's a sports better's dream. Even with all the customers, the service was fast and food was delicious. I noticed all the bartenders at least on this particular day were men and all the servers were women. I was told that wasn't the norm but I kind of liked it. The guys held down the bar rather well. This place does have an outdoor patio as well which was not open today but expected to open soon. I'd say if you are looking for a table to come early. We ended up standing the entire time we were there but I really wish this place much success. The staff was very down to Earth. Their customer service was a 10/10. I'll be back! read more

From the moment we stepped off the elevator it was sooo nice! The staff..from the security to the servers very nice..even when the place got crowded for the WCBB Championship game, we still felt "checked on! The atmosphere, the tvs, the music & the views all fit the vybe!! We ordered food shortly after arrival & we're lucky enough to receive it before it got crowded. They get a lil slow when it's packed. The food itself was great!! Parmesan fries, Buffalo chicken dip top notch!! I'll be back soon!! read more

I came across an article about a new sports bar that opened ansaI asked my wife would she want to go check it out and she was down for it. We drove down and there were plenty of parking and took the elevator up and upon entering the vibe was electric and a large crowd was representing there. The DJ was rocking and all the servers was extremely nice and courteous to us. I really enjoyed the large wall with all the TVs so you want miss any events. While sitting down me and my wife ordered some food as i ordered the Buffalo chicken flatbread and ordered the cacalamari which both was delicious. This is a soft opening so not everything was available but i certainly understood that before going but there wasn't any problems and is a great place to hang out. I'll advise for everyone to check it out. read more

Service here was incredible. Couple of weekends ago me and my girlfriend were watching games there on a Sunday before catching a flight back to the west coast. Management went out of there way to watch our suitcases (without us even thinking to ask), got us an extra stool to help us sit down at the bar, and even helped us get a table in time for us to eat before having to catch our flight. Ended up meeting the owner when he was checking on everyone's tables, extremely genuine guy. I work at a bar and they wowed both me and my girlfriend with their hospitality. It was above and beyond. read more

Nice take on a Sports Bar Lounge. No Draft beer, but they have cans of some popular craft beers food was good and cocktail list was creative. They do charge 20% automatically for gratuity for service wasn't bad. Long walk to the bathroom for anyone that cares. Overall not a bad experience l. read more

They sat us after we waited on the waitlist for a table, then said we stole the table and wouldn't serve us

The bar itself is a very cool concept. The food was also good but they need to get their servers more organized. There were so many servers but no one taking orders or it was not organized at all. We would order drinks and then they never showed and we would ask about them again and get told "ok ok ok" and then still no drinks. We ended up leaving earlier than we planned. Overall, the place has potential but it has a lot of improvements to be made. read more

Service is very bad here. Atmosphere is a lot of fun to watch games. Food is fine but small portions and overpriced. Another issue was the server added 18% gratuity to our check for a party of 3 without mentioning it. Not a place I'd recommend. read more

I wanted to love this place. I didn't. The hostess was rude and we stood for almost an hour watching tables sit open/dirty. My biggest issue is the tip process. Built in 20%, which the bar didn't tell us. but the server sure did! "20% is included but if you want to tip me, add more." Shady. Drinks didn't live up to the cost/vibe of the place. Food was good. Parking is tight. Video wall is cool! read more

The staff is extremely rude and you have to pay for everything... including to sit at a table. Once we were booted from a table, we were yelled at for standing because it blocked the view of a paid table. The music is terrible and extremely loud. We can hear it until 2am and we live 3/4 miles away. TERRIBLE read more
