first off, the food was incredible. I have little to no notes as far as that goes. as far as ambiance, same thing. A very cozy, modern take on a pub. Clean, the bathrooms upstairs are all-gender, ect. What really brought down my review was the service. While pleasant, staff was very short with our group and our waiter got VERY snippy. I understand being overwhelmed, but it wasn't like we were all talking at him at once and being jerks. Also-- while I can understand 9 people could be considered a large group to some restaurants, a 20% automatic gratuity should be disclosed ahead of time. I am usually a 20% minimum tipper, and would not have given such for the service we received. Not trying to be a Karen, just a little disappointed. I Would still recommend visiting!!! read more

I was in town for the FIFA Tournament. I stopped by just for a quick eat but had a really nice time. There were a ton of fans so there was lots of cheering and chanting. It's a small bar but I was able to get a seat right on the end. I got a shrimp wrap that included bacon. Everything was super tasty and fresh. I don't remember the beer I had but it was an IPA. The more bitter one. All beers on draft are local or foreign I believe. I waited on my food for a little and the bartender was nice enough to take half off my wrap for the wait. I didn't ask. There were only two girls behind the bar and they were really working hard, which is why I appreciate one saw I hadn't gotten my food when I hadn't made a fuss about it. I'd go back for sure. Super reasonable and good food. read more

We will return, whenever we visit Charlotte! Staff was amazing! Their Chef came out personally to meet us, and discuss our special dietary needs (dairy/gluten-free) and our options. Very thoughtful ! We had the pork tacos in corn tortillas, fries, burgers, and the green beans. Everything was spot on. We had children with us and the whole staff was very accommodating and patient . The gorgeous hand-made tables with their Val Halla Pub and Eatery logo, and the rest of the decor was so tasteful ! Can't wait to return. read more

We have stopped here before games and concerts. Great vibe and service is great - love the seating options and food is always good.

Don't go here before any event, big rip off! Will charge you a surcharge on top of your bill with an automatic tip of 20%. One and done for me.......lesson learned. $30 for a bad Guinness in a plastic cup and a small cup of Chardonnay. read more

Came here for Sunday brunch and it was delicious! I had the fish and chips and I really liked it. I'll definitely be back for that for sure. It was actually my first time trying fish with the malt vinegar and I'm a fan. So thanks for introducing me to that lol. I've came for drinks before and they don't disappoint. Good beer selection and tasty drinks for sure! read more

Amazing! The drinks are cheap and they had everything we wanted. They also had a water station to help yourself. I was honestly nervous to order food as it seemed like just a bar, but the food was great!!! There aren't many tables and when we went, you just seated yourself. I would go back!! read more

Excellent beer! Lamb burger was great. You have to try the tomato bisque. Yum! Cool, sports bar atmosphere with friendly staff. Will definitely come back when in town next. read more

It's a Small place with plenty of seating, but minimal space to walk around. Be aware that it is loud if the place is full.

Also Moderately priced. read more

I recently dropped in for lunch with coworkers, one who suggested Valhalla. Having never been before I recognized it definitely has the "bar" vibe. We were welcomed by friendly staff and seated in a booth along the wall. After looking over the menu, and hearing the daily specials I went with the special, a creamy chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese. The soup was good, but large chucks of chicken that were hard to eat, since we were only given a spoon. In addition, the soup had raw jalapeños which was a little strange to me when it comes with chicken noodle soup. The grilled cheese included a perfect amount of cheese and toasty bread. Overall it was a nice lunch, and if back look forward to trying other menu items. read more

The food was very good! I had the sentinels torch which is a spicy gin drink and it was perfectly balanced between the sweet honey flavor and the spice. I also had the LODBROK'S LAMB BURGER and it was exactly what I was expecting! The flavors went really well together and if I go back I would get it again. It was pretty loud music wise which was fine. The service is where I felt our trip fell a little short. I accidentally tipped over a cup of water and there was no notice to it until we had already grabbed napkins from the bar and cleaned it up ourselves. I just feel like it was a very transactional but I will most likely be giving it another try since everyone has an off day read more

Wednesday 5 pm and got a table quickly. No menus. Everything is QR code. My phone is dead. Waitress listed a few items she likes. Went with fish and chips. Good choice. Fish was a large fillet fried perfectly. Still flakey inside crispy outside. Fries were average. As restaurant got busier I saw my waitress very infrequently. I do think they should have at least 1 menu for back up read more

Love Valhalla! Service is always good. Awesome food and vibe. I tried their lamb burger for the first time and loved it. Chai spice old fashioned was a bit too strong, but loved it - perhaps I needed that ;-) read more

Located in uptown, it's a dive bar in a strip of other dive bars, that we locals call the French quarter. walking distance to the ball field. The food is really good, and I was pleasantly surprised with this chicken dish. It's easily a 10/10 wish there were more cider or wine options but again, it's a dive bar. I recommend it for food for sure! read more

We love the new vibe and the remodel they're going through. The only thing we can't stand is how bright the lights are, they need to bring back the warm cozy, feel. The bright lights make it feel like an operating room. read more

If you want to enjoy a fun and unique dining experience this is the place to go. Set in the French sector that is full of small restaurants with great variety. It is located across from a local park Romare Bearden. I recommend the fish and chips and a choice of beer. It is exceptionally flavorful. Their other fare is delicious as well. I haven't tried them but many recommend the chicken wings. It is at times quiet and intimate. Then at other times loud and noisy. They also have small tables outside. Either way you will enjoy yourself. The individuals working there are kind, polite and very helpful. It is also very clean. You can sit up front and look out the large windows and watch people go by and also see some of the local characters in the area. Just enjoy a unique experience in downtown Charlotte. read more

Getting back into uptown Charlotte was so nice!! We had an awesome Sunday going to Discovery Place and then walking over to Valhalla for awesome food!

Service was great too -- thanks to the staff! read more

Great establishment. Valhalla Pub is a Eastern European pub with decor inspired by Norse methodology. See the walls decorated with Beowulf, spears, and Viking vibes for the pub's theme. The burgers themselves are great as a burger should taste. It's cooked well with a nice sauce and the fries are delicious Service is nice and you are offered both drinks and food. Would recommend for a lunch spot during work if you can get out during a nice afternoon read more

The location is great if you're uptown and parking isn't an issue! The main area was deafening at 1pm but there's a back room with a few tables that was cool and quiet. The waitress was great. Our party of 3 had the fish and chips (which were good) and burgers (classified as very good). The fries were tasty but only room temperature. This place is probably terrific if you want a rowdy pub vibe on a nice summer evening. read more

nothing like a little viking food after a long day slogging from museum to museum through the blowy midday cold of Charlotte in April... and other than the names of the dishes Valhalla is nothing like viking food. got a table and snapped the QR menu - I get it but that doesn't mean I have to like it - and put in a request for BBQ chickenachos app and an AMB cider for me while my lovely bride went with an surprisingly good albeit slightly out-of-season pumpkin ale. for not being in the typical viking's wheelhouse the nachos were alright for nachos, nothing really to brag about but they got the job done and eased us into our mains. I don't often have actual lamb so lodbrok's lamburger was an interesting foray into the unknown for me. it looks and eats like a 'normal' burger but has the earthier flavors of goat cheese and chopped lamb, red onion is always a winner away from beefs and since the mayo wasn't pronounced I'm assuming it played nice with the rest of my sandwich as did the cucumber salad which was done very well, thank you :-) her drunken fish tacos hit the spot and swam around it; a trio of tortillas with chunks of battered haddock and red cabbage slaw sharing some space on a plate... yumm, it's a little spendy but I'd eat here again. read more

After eating here several times I thought I would submit my review as I see it. Tonight I had the Viking burger and fries. The burger was soo soo at best fries were waffle fries which it did not state when ordering. Wife had the Reuben . It was pitiful. No meat and tons of sauerkraut  This is a great atmosphere but more of a tourist place because of all the positive reviews. Like I said from the start I have been here several times and would not return for food unless someone in my party wanted to go here read more

This place is located right in the front of the French Quarter area of uptown charlotte. I went here for part of girl's day on a sunny yet fall Saturday. This place has a bar. They have a pretty cool beer selection that they have a menu for which included beers in car/bottle and on tap. It was not super packed this day. I will say that the service was pretty good. The waiter was on top of things! Our drinks were refilled consistently and we were checked on. They were very personable and providing great beer suggestions as my aunt and cousin were interested in trying some. My friend ordered a lemon drop and she enjoyed it. As for food, we ordered appetizers and entrees. For appetizers we ordered: chips & salsa, pretzel bites, and the chicken bites (with the sauce on the side). I will honestly say the best out of this selection was the chips & salsa. The salsa was really good. However, the chicken tasted a bit unseasoned which was not my favorite aspect. For my entrée, I ordered the cajun shrimp wrap with tater tots. My wrap was really good and so were the tater tots. It was my second time getting the shrimp wrap and it did not disappoint either time, read more

We ate here on a Saturday afternoon. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. We ordered Valhalla Chicken bites, Odin's Pretzel bites, along with chips and salsa to start. The salsa was the favorite of our group. We requested the sauces for the chicken bites on the side instead of tossed since there were so many palates. The chicken was unseasoned which was disappointing. The pretzel bites were decent, the cheese on top was interesting. I had the lamb burger which was tasty. The curry mayo went well with the goat cheese and lamb seasoning. The service was excellent especially with the time of day that we went. Several servers stopped by to make sure we were ok. Our water glasses stayed full and drinks replenished quickly. They have a few televisions for watching sports. The outdoor patio is shared with a few other restaurants and looked cozy. read more

Friendly service and good beer selection. While in town for a Hornets game, we enjoyed the pretzel bites as an appetizer and two orders of the fish and chips as entrees. Vidar's Triple Grill (grilled cheese) was satisfying, but we recommend getting the lingonberry jelly on the side so you can make your own choice about whether it's to your taste. read more

I had been here several years ago on the day of a Knights game and the place was a mad house. This visit I was solo on a mellow Monday @ 5ish. I sat at the first bar seat I found available and ordered a Good Morning Vietnam Vanilla Blonde Ale from Wooden Robot Brewery. Good choice. The bartender was especially helpful with both my beer and food selection. I followed my beer with a Cuban pork sammich with a side Caesar salad. The beer, sammich and Caesar were the perfect combo. The pork on the sammich was heavenly, tender, tasty and piled high. The pickle added to the taste and was Dillicous!!! The Caesar salad had just the right amount of dressing and was served in a soup crock. This meal was just the right portion size and the price was right also. Since it's right around the corner from my office this will be a frequent stop going forward. read more

This pub was a lot of fun. Although small, it had a vibrant atmosphere. And the service was great! Their beer selection covered all the bases ... and I decided to go with a local lager. Regarding the food, also really good. I enjoyed some buffalo wings and then went for the fried haddock sandwich. There was everything to like about this sandwich ... the soft roll, the ripe tomatoes, and of course the perfectly cooked fish. Although I tend to go burger, I absolutely made the right choice. read more

Valhalla Pub & Eatery has become my go-to spot for lunch during the week. I started working in Uptown during the pandemic, so it is a really odd time to try and figure out the restaurant scene. Valhalla is a quick and easy spot to grab lunch, if you work in Uptown. It is also a good place if you are looking for outdoor seating. Valhalla has a great pub feel. It is what I imagine a pub in the UK would feel like. Don't be fooled by the atmosphere though; Valhalla actually has some really good food. They have typical pub fare, but it is all high quality. Nothing is overly greasy or something that you can tell they just popped in a microwave. I have had a few things and they have all been really good. You can even get entrees on the healthier/lighter side. I would highly recommend both the Sesame Seared Ahi Tuna Salad and the Black & Blue Sirloin Salad. If you're in the mood for more traditional pub fare, you can't go wrong with a burger or the turkey sandwich with some tater tots on the side. The tater tots are a stand out. They aren't too greasy and have a good crisp to them without being overcooked. I would recommend with a side of their Wasabi Ranch. As I've always come at lunch, I've never stopped in for a drink, but that is on the list now that Covid restrictions are being lifted. Valhalla is a great place to grab lunch outside with good food at reasonable prices. read more

We came here during the pandemic when it was at its worst. Valhalla was open and we enjoyed ourselves then. Fast forward nine months later, we were in town and decided to try it again. We sat at a table and had a multitude of servers. It seemed as it is a smaller place and they kind of all share the responsibilities with each other. We had energetic servers that were on top of us to make sure we were satisfied with everything. The food was plentiful and had a great flavor to it. The pot roast, melted in your mouth. We did love our experience that we returned for another meal again. The meal was the same as the writing above. Fresh, hot, flavorful, and great service. read more

I love this place. One of my favorite in Uptown. They always have a great draft beer selection and a few dark options that are sure to please any beer lover. My favorite meal here is the cheese steak with fries. I honestly only get this. One of the best cheese steaks in Charlotte. Their fries are crispy and flavorful. Quality meat and cheese and fresh veggies. Always good service and a fun place to visit if you in the French Quarter area. read more

We had brunch here with the groom while waiting for the wedding later in the afternoon. The food was pretty good. Better than the pictures looked on the menu. I had the breakfast wrap and the groom had the Caesar wrap. I had the tots which were nice and crispy and he had the fries. Turned out to be waffle fries which were dope. We had seasonal cocktails which were boozy and tasty. The vibe was good. There was only one other table in there since it was early, but the staff were super friendly and attentive. read more

Let me start by saying that our server, Joe, is amazing. If you're lucky enough to snag him, you won't be disappointed. We were a lively foursome and it was his first week of work! He rattled off the menu like an old pro. Uptown on a rare Sunday evening landed us here after realizing we were too "seasoned" (aka Old) for the Ink and Ivy crowd. Glad we remembered the French Quarter area and stumbled upon this gem. We were initially seated in the front. It was a tad tight for our taste and a friend realized there was more seating in the back area of the pub. Perfect! The four of us had that entire area to ourselves. Even though we were tucked away from the crowd, we were never forgotten. Joe explained the drinks and I had one of the best glasses of Malbec ever; Joe suggested it and even brought the bottle for me to snap a picture. We also had a few tequila shots with very generous pours for the birthday guy we were celebrating. I chose the Cajun shrimp wrap minus the lettuce and tomatoes and it was WONDERFUL! Joe was concerned the wrap might be too thin without the veggie trimmings but it wasn't. It has just enough heat and the shrimp were plentiful. Others at my table had wings that they also said were tasty. Cute location in the heart of Uptown. Awesome customer service. Great food. You've got to check this spot out! read more
