We had a great first visit at Seaboard! Love the atmosphere inside and out - seating options inside including larger tables in the back. Loved the deck seating out front and on the side. They have a beautiful and unique wine selection! They are a micro brewery so have lots of different beer options that are brewed there on site. They have a small food menu with things like charcuterie and also have $1 snack cups that are fun! The beer was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful! We decided to get pizza from The Exchange Depot next door and it was amazing. There was plenty of two hour parking on the street next to it which was great! read more

I come so many times I can't believe I haven't reviewed it! Awesome place! Fancier than a dive bar but casual for a random meet with friends! Great first date spot for some drinks! Good beer and wine selection! EXCELLENT pizza! And they have cool events all the time! read more

Great place for a glass wine or beer. Friendly accommodating staff. Great indoor or outdoor seating options and wonderful pizza place next door to accompany your beverage. read more

The spot was super cool. I love that they have wine slushies and they had a huge selection of beverages. My favorite was the pizza spot out back. Such a great spot to stop if you're in Matthews. This would also be a great date night location. read more

7/12/24 The ladies requested samples prior to purchasing a bottle from the male bartender inside. We sampled the Pinot Grigio Bocelli and Txakolina Zudugari, but settled on the Huia Sauvignon Blanc. The bartender was accommodating but was far from inviting. Various beers were also ordered as well as a frose. I preferred the peach rose to the watermelon as it was just a bit less sweet. The female young bartender outside was bubbly and friendly. Food n/a. We didn't eat but I saw people eating tasty looking pizza from an attached kitchen outside. Service 3 stars. The bartender inside could have been a bit more helpful. Ambience 4 stars. Extremely casual, especially outside with picnic tables read more

This is our go to spot in Matthews! The wine selection is great, and their beers are varied and I haven't had a bad one yet. The food options inside are only small bites, which are fine, but the pizzas sold outside are stellar, so definitely order from the outside kitchen if you need a meal. There's also tons of dog friendly patio space for when the weather is nice! read more

I love Seaboard! This is a great spot to grab a drink right in the heart of downtown Matthews. This past weekend, we enjoyed a glass of wine at Seaboard then walked to another business on the same street for dinner! I just love nights like that. Their wine selection is updated and maintained by their sommelier who is so knowledgeable. I meant to grab his name. We also did a wine tasting with him on a Tuesday for $10 which was so much fun. I have never eaten food here so I can't speak to that but the charcuterie boards are made to order and look fantastic! They have a Wine Club membership for $50/month includes 3 bottles of wine, a monthly pickup party, and other discounts as well! All in all, I highly recommend Seaboard. read more

We come here on a Friday night to enjoy the spring weather in downtown Matthews fall in joying a few local beverages. The wine and beer selection was pretty big, anywhere from bocks, stouts to ipas on the beer side, and virtually any wine you want, they have it. The patio area is pretty good, with 2 Pizza places right nearby and a cigar shop right next-door, and lots of other walkable options. The atmosphere was relaxed with all varieties of people enjoying themselves on the patio and inside at both the bar and tables. You can even text your order to the wait staff, which I thought was really neat. It was only missing a wow factor think. The prices were very high for what we got, so I think that brings it down a star. I will surely be back when visiting the area. read more

The wine was yummy. Buuuutt... the service and experience needs work. **For POC connoisseurs only** First vist. I have to admit my review is coming from a POC POV, so may not be relevant for all. But umm yikes. The minute I walked in I got stares and looks from the staff. No one greeted me and the ONE black girl was the first to speak and give me the run down. After my party trickled in, we paid for double tastings ($10 x 4 pours), was told our server David would be at the table shortly. David never showed. I went back to the front to let them know we were ready to get started (20mins later) and finally the same ONE BLACK employee eventually came over to start the tasting. My friends and I made the best of it and the wine helped but no no no. I won't be back anytime soon. Shame, because the wine was good. Truly disappointing. More context: I'm newer to Charlotte and haven't explored much of Matthews. However, my party was quite familiar with "Downtown Matthews" lol. I guess I had to see and feel for myself but bleh. So sad that racial discrimination is still so prevalent and in your face sometimes. Experiences like this one is a constant reminder. read more

Seaboard is a neighborhood taproom/bar joint with attached pizza kitchen (The Exchange Pizza Depot). Interior has high top and some bar seating - outside is a large streetfront patio with well seasoned picnic tables and a side/courtyard with more seating. Seaboard has a great selection of local and regional beers and the wine bar is nice to have as an alternative. Service is step up at the counter, friendly and efficient. The adjacent Exchange offers salads, a few frilled cheese sammich options and some excellent wood fired pizzas ordered from a window at the small blockhouse at the back of the courtyard. Great for people watching both walking through the town center or patrons swimming in their drinks, this is a very good choice if Moo and Brew is too full or not your thing. read more

Way too many kids running wild - hard pass. Which is unfortunate because we used to enjoy it as a date night when we had a babysitter- and now it's not an escape read more

Second time today! And we know we will be back again. We just love the vibe and relax atmosphere at this place. Great wine selection and I love to try a new one every time. My husband enjoys a good beer here. Last time we tried that personal charcuterie board and loved it. Today we tried hummus and pita which was really tasty too. We love munching while dribbling, so $1 snack items such as Cheetos and Chex mix was a delight (this is how we do it back in India) For food one can order pizza from the exchange pizza depot - their pizzas are sooo good. Must visit if you enjoy a good wine and beer. Perfect for date lunch/night or friends hangout. read more

I used to love coming to this place. Great drinks, nice atmosphere, but the bartenders are rude. Plenty of other places to choose from in the area that I'll go to instead. read more

We popped in for a quick drink while waiting for a table at a nearby restaurant. Seaboard is located next to a busy set of railroad tracks. As such, Seaboard is named after the old Seaboard Railroad Line. Their beers are named after defunct railroad lines or trains. I sampled the Silver Meteor IPA, Orange Honey Wheat, and Silver Comet Imperial Hall. All drank well and smooth, full flavor and body but not too heavy. They offer a number of visiting taps as well. Seaboard also offers a wine bar with a wide range of smaller, independent wineries. All wines are available by the glass or to go. There is a large patio that is dog-friendly and indoor seating too. The patio is well shaded from large trees. Next door is The Pizza Exchange. It is a takeout pizza place that you can bring in to eat. read more

Super cool vibe, awesome list of wine and beer, crazy busy but well staffed with friendly and eager to please staff! We enjoyed the brews at Seaboard, had a flight and pints. Iced Latte Porter was hands down my favorite! Daughter tried and enjoyed their alcohol-free wine. If we lived closer, I would be tempted to join the wine club at $50 per month - 3 bottles of wine and a lot of other perks. read more

It started out positive. Great wine selection for wine night. Unfortunately, none of the ones I chose were very good. Two stars because the charcuterie was pretty good. They were kind enough to sub the bread for pickles since I'm keto. I went to sit on the front porch and it was like I was at a playground. Kids everywhere and the parents were completely oblivious to their shenanigans and just getting their drink on. This is a huge liability issue and made me very nervous and uncomfortable. One who was unattended fell off a chair and started screaming. Due to the ridiculously overwhelming childlike environment I will not be back. read more

This is one of our Matthews local favorite! The place has indoor and outdoor sitting and just ample space, even enough for an event. The location is dead in the center of the nice quaint downtown Matthews. The place I believe was named because there use to be a railroad line (Seaboard) that ran goods up and down the East Coast and I believe there was a stop right around the corner. I am not an historian so please fact check me as I don't want to deliver fake news. Anyways! The place has awesome choose of drinks from non alcoholic to alcoholic and a wide variety from beer, wine, wine slush and etc. I knew it was a taproom but lo and behold a brewery as well. I honestly didn't know that and I feel ashamed I didn't get any their beers to taste as I have become less of a beer drinker by the day. I did try this new hard kombucha which was delightful and an acquired taste but satisfying. It was nice and simple but elegant. My favorite, absolute favorite thing here is the PIZZA! What you talking about Willis!? That pizza is so good! A guy in front of me ordered $100 worth! I was like man. He feeding the whole block lol. Try the pizza and everything else! There is a reason it has nearly five stars. If you are a city person come down for a nice night and get out of your comfort zone. This place won't disappoint. read more

Seaboard Brewing, Tap Room & Wine Bar - Pizza! - Wine Bars Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

First time coming here and it was a great experience! My husband works at a brewery so we were excited to taste something different than from his work. I had the tigers blood and it was very good. Not too sour but some unexpected flavors that I loved. We had the charcuterie, we got the pick 7, with extra baguette. It was plenty of food and it was all super fresh and delicious, the strawberry preserves were my favorite part! Definitely recommend for a fun date night. It has a nice upscale and darker atmosphere that's perfect for setting the mood, but also seems fun for a night out with friends! read more

Hands down one of my favorite breweries! Located in downtown Matthews it's the perfect location for some brews and beautiful views. . . With tons of rotating taps there is always great beer to be had including their own brewed beer, visited today to try their new DIPA ( which was delicious) and the Viking orchard IPA ( very smooth). Staff is very friendly and fast to serve. . . Bonus: Seaboard has a pizza joint connected to it so what better duo than pizza AND beer?! Do yourself a favor and visit, you can't go wrong here. . . Pictured: flight of 4 beers: - Ddh Viking orchard IPA - Silver Comet DIPA - Silver Meteor - Sunland Kolsch read more

Had a great time the wine was fantastic service was great and the atmosphere was relaxing. There's an indoor area and an outdoor area. If wanting more than just finger food there's a pizza place right next door that makes personal pan pizzas that you can eat on their patio area while enjoying your beverage. read more

Met some friends here for a few drinks and was impressed right away. The beer selection good and they have guest taps for both beer and ciders as well as nice wine selection. Their food menu isn't bad either, the charcuterie board was delicious. The service was good and the staff was friendly and helpful, the place was clean and I would definitely go back again. read more

While in the area with some friends, we decided to drop in for a drink. They have an amazing selection of wines, my pick, and a decent amount of beer selections, for the others. Overall service and drinks were on point. Unfortunately we had just ate, but I look forward to coming back to enjoy some wine and small plates, especially their charcuterie board, as I am fan of them anywhere. read more

We were looking for a quick bite to eat with the kiddos in downtown Matthew's and happened to stumble upon this location. Outside beside the restaurant, there is a little shack where they make pizzas. You go and order what you would like and then go sit down and they will bring the pizza to you. There are plenty of places to sit. There is outside seating all over the patio, and you can go sit inside the restaurant. We opted to sit inside. There is plenty of seat selection as well. In the back of the restaurant, there is a bar where they sell Frozen Rosè and I was super excited! I don't know many places that sell that, so I know this will definitely be a favorite spot during the summer. The pizza was delicious. The crust was super fluffy and not hard at all. Overall, it was a nice place, and I will definitely be going back during the summer for the Frozen Rosè. It wasn't too packed, but we did have to wait a bit for the pizza, but nothing too bad. Now this is in downtown matthews, so parking can be a little hectic. read more

On a beautiful busy afternoon...this place was busy Indoor and outdoor seating. Wine and beer. No cocktails Small snacks at the bar and various charcuterie board items Honestly we were really hungry..and had a pretzel with mustard...which was good We ordered a gluten free pizza from the completely separate business in this tiny shack next door. This wasn't bad ..and reasonably quick ..it took less than 10 minutes.. Our beer was not bad...one porter and wheat. The place is very busy and noisy for indoors ...I had a hard time hearing the sever ..who was shouting at me less than 2 feet away because of the noise... outdoors was better. (Just a bit too cold) Not bad ----- just not a wow experience Maybe worth another trip as the town is cute with various shops and other places read more

Good Beer, Good service and great outdoor sitting area. Pet friendly. Family place. Wine collection is awesome read more

Went here for a birthday get together and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere is so trendy and fun! There is a patio out front and a heads patio out back which is perfect! They have wine and beer options which is an added plus because a lot of breweries don't have them. There is also a limited food menu and if you want a snack they have "scoops" of pretzels, Cheetos, and animal crackers for a dollar. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Excellent vibe great prices and friendly staff have brought many friends there and everyone enjoys it!

Nice selection of in-house brews w/a fair price for a flight of four at $8. I liked the ambiance and decor and the staff were friendly and explained the beer menu, flight option, and their limited food menu. They did offer that they do always allow outside food & they have a pizza place that is a separate business outside on the patio that will deliver the pizza to your table. I was a little disappointed they didn't have more of a substantial food menu since they have 10 beers on draft that a more hearty food selection would accompany. They also seemed to be a wine bar as well and have a "create your own charcuterie board" option that seems like it was designed more for their wine section. I saw that they have a wine club as well. I may be back to sample some more of their own brew offerings in the future, but I'll be sure to bring some foodage next time. read more

Look nothing more than I can say then good brew, Wine and Service. They are friendly here and they are knowledgeable about their product. I am not a beer drinker (Yes and I was a sailor, I cant explain it) but the Chardonnay here was very good and when there is no hard liquor I am cool. lol On a Sunny light heat day sit outside and enjoy people watching and pizza from next door. Matthews is a great place for this to be and life is good! read more

I don't hang out downtown Matthews much but I may need to start venturing further out from uptown more. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Such a nice place to enjoy some beers if that's your thing but for me the wine I selected was fabulous and not one you see on many menus around town. With a cigar lounge next door this makes for trouble as they also allow you to smoke on their patio. It I chose not to out of respect for the many kids around. Order a pizza while there to soak up some those hops and you have a great night. read more

It was okay. Could do better with food options and beer. Maybe will try in a different time.

I went here on a Friday night and it was incredibly busy - a packed house inside and out! I was lucky to snag a spot at the bar with a couple friends, though, and we were served promptly. The atmosphere here is chill and felt welcoming to beer drinkers and wine drinkers alike. It really felt like a place you could bring anyone and no matter who it is, they could find something to enjoy on the menu. As a wine lover, I appreciated the wine list here. Lots of good options and plenty that aren't your basic Chardonnay from California. I also really appreciated the service here. A couple bartenders checked in with me but it wasn't excessive. I'm very excited for summertime weather to spend more time here! read more

Seaboard is not only a Wine Bar/Taproom but now has the distinction of being the only brewery in Matthews. The look and feel of this place fits in well with rest of the area. Go through the gate and up the stairs to what almost seems like a cool California style house. I am in love with the doorknob. Inside you'll find several seating areas including two bars with plenty of stools. I'm a beer guy and can definitely appreciate what they had on tap. During our visit they had 7 of their own selections, nicely complemented by brews from Mikkeller, Oxbow, Grimm, American Solera and some great German ones to boot. I chose a full pour of their Silver Meteor IPA, a nice refreshing representation of a West Coast IPA loaded with some of my favorite hops like Mosaic and Citra. For wine drinkers, you can purchase by the glass, bottle or just buy retail to take home. The word is that they have over 1,000 bottles to choose from. The outside patio is spacious as well with an area where you can order pizza and wraps, "Exchange Pizza Depot". Great little place for wine and beer drinkers alike, with MOJO and the OG Beer Temple nearby. read more
