In all honesty, they could have had a higher rating. The wings were good. The drink specials are good and their happy hour with half off appetizers is a good value. The chicken tender basket is a good value, but the tenders are just ok. Their pimento cheese balls are great. Another good option is their Mac and cheese. What brought them down to a 3 was their service. Our friend's order was wrong, and then they gave him the wrong drink. They forgot to get me my wings at first, so I had to remind them. After admitting that they forgot and me having to wait and remind them, we got nothing but a sorry. This on top of the service overall just was not good. I have been here before because it is a good value and a cool place however, I don't come often because the service and quality can be inconsistent. At their best, they are a good choice. At their worst, they can be a disappointment. Unfortunately, the only thing consistent about this place is the inconsistency. read more

Classic bar food with plenty of tvs for watching. We stopped in on a Saturday evening. There was no wait and our food came out quickly. My companions both had the house burger that they were satisfied with. I had the deep fried pimento cheese balls that were listed as homemade, but anytime something comes out in a uniform perfect shape all the way across that statement loses a little bit of credibility. I am talking perfect circle here. That didn't stop me from enjoying them though, they were basically pimento mozzarella sticks and they were great. Our waitress was very nice, and everything was reasonably priced. If I were looking for a quick bite to eat in the area or trying to catch a game on I would definitely check it out again. Update went back with family this weekend and the burger was MASSIVE and delicious! read more

Since me and my partner have been going to this place for years now and they know us, the place has went downhill. Drinks are like water bartenders now don't know how to make the drinks.the best bartenders are gone now, we waited an hour and half on sour mix for margaritas which was not good, food wise you don't get much of anything anymore such as fries, our burgers where burnt black don't know if this man was a Manger or what but brought the burger back out and said that it was the flames that got too hot; not only I seen the same man go behind the bar on the patio and was picking in his noise and did not wash his hands at all. Servers are not really good. We will not be coming back to this place now. read more

Great service, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. It didn't take no time for our party to be seated. This was our first time coming to whiskey warehouse and I'm glad we found it on top 12 best places to eat in Charlotte. Everyone with me enjoyed themselves with the great drinks, food and fast service and one of the managers Candace was amazing and treated us very well. Next time we will have to check out the rooftop bar and sunset. We will definitely be regulars to this place now! If you try this place you won't be disappointed. read more

After waiting an hour officially on the waitlist (after hostess and yelp officially alerting me that I have a 30 minute wait) I was asked to step outside and wait... Singled out... Despite others waiting inside... I guess I am not their desired clientele/demographic. Go here if you like hostessing with attitude. read more

Absolutely terrible experience due to the aggressive bouncer who finds it appropriate to scream at patrons for no reason. Can't tell you how many people I've convinced never to visit this establishment again. Do better, he's utterly terrible. read more

Very unhappy after waiting for many hours for a party of 12. After complaining and saying we would sit at different tables they still ignored us. I don't know if uh was us being gay or what but horrible experience. read more

Due to link on their website, I was routed to site to place myself on waitlist 24-hours in advance to be notified when I could be added to waitlist for 1pm dining. However, the restaurant does not honor it. When calling the restaurant an hour before we anticipated seating, they confirmed they do not take reservations, nor do they honor the waitlist their website routes to, and wait times of 1-1.5 hours were expected AFTER you arrived in person. Was so put off by their miscommunication that I was concerned the in-house service would be just as disappointing, so decided to take business elsewhere. read more

Worst customer service I've ever witnessed. Called ahead to confirm that they had room and a table for us to watch the draft they said yes come on in I'll push some tables together see you soon we got there 5 minutes from the time we called and they said oh we decided to close that area then when I explained we literally just got off the phone with you they said well there's nothing we can do we we closed it now then when I asked to speak to the manager about this they let me know "he was busy but that section is still closed" if you value customer service at all steer clear of this place read more

Get the buffalo shrimp. You won't be mad! Plus $4 Jack everyday all day is a great reason to come out!

This was my first time visiting, I found this restaurant through Instagram #clteats. I was so excited to try the Grilled Tenderloin w/ garlic cream sauce, broccoli and rice. It wasn't on the menu but the staff and the Kitchen manager Chris was so awesome he made especially for me since it was my first time. The food was amazing. Definitely try this place! read more

Whiskey Warehouse - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

it's embarrassing how much i like their food and now that they're on postmates it's just so dangerous

Great food.. fun atmosphere. Food took a little bit to get to us, but we got there as soon as they opened and they filled up fast. I am excited to go back when it's warmer to sit on the rooftop. read more

I came in on St. Patrick's day. The manager said that they couldn't serve food because the kitchen was too small. The top floor was full but the bottom floor was pretty empty. How is the kitchen not big enough to serve the building below capacity?!!!!!! read more

Wide selection for both food and drink with a large rooftop bar that comes with a nice view! Perfect place for a casual drink

They were already low on my list. Now they don't even have boneless wings on their half off options for Monday nights. So basically it's adios - I will not be returning. There is literally nothing here for me anymore. read more

Neat atmosphere like an old whiskey saloon inside. But the best part is the rooftop bar/eatery with a great city backdrop. Food was slower than I prefer but to be expected anytime I dine outside. I ordered the buffalo wrap which was great but the fries were cold. They gladly accommodated me with new. Overall I'd be back to eat on the rooftop with a city view. Price point was affordable as well read more

Above average whiskey selection! I was impressed how this place has "Jack Daniels" stamped on nearly everything. The place is a giant billboard for Tennessee whiskey. When we arrived, it was super loud. They had a DJ playing dance hits, with people getting out of their seats and getting rowdy with the music. The place had a definite fratty vibe. The whiskey selection was decent. I've seen much better lists of bourbons, and it seemed like they were mainly just picking out as many whiskeys as they could. They were missing great bourbons, but I guess it's not a bourbon warehouse, huh? They offer a variety of decent locally brewed beers, which was exciting. The beers were nearly all $5. The service was pretty good, our drinks never went empty, and we were checked up on regularly. The place is clean, and well kept. It has a classy interior, with an awesome rooftop patio! My favorite thing about this place was the number of televisions that they had going. They're on every surface around, each tuned to a different sporting event. This seems like a great place to catch a game! read more

Good enough pub food with a kind of annoying attitude. I was happy to see something go in to the space left by Creation. I've been several times for supper or lunch with groups ranging from two to eight. They have a burger with bacon and egg that is delicious, if freakishly messy, and what I usually get. Their sweet potato fries are crispy and garlicky like I like them. They have at least a couple of vegetarian options, although the one my partner gets usually would better be described as cheese sauce with a few vegetables over white rice (not unappealing, but not light or healthy in any way). There are LOTS of TVs throughout the bar and next to each booth, although they are easy enough to ignore if you want to have a conversation. There seems to be an extensive bar, although I've never tried it. As for the attitude, this is a restaurant with roughly eight parking spaces during the day when other businesses in the area are open. The restaurant has decided that a good use of one of those spaces, and the one closest to the door mind you, is as permanent parking of a testosterone surrogate muscle car. God knows I'm all for attitude and funky, but not when it interferes with function. The staff routinely park in the post office parking lot next door during business hours, which then leaves the post office without adequate parking. WW's owners are adding a rooftop bar this winter, requiring even more parking. There is a sense of entitlement and disdain for their neighbors that doesn't sit well with me. If you are looking for a place to watch a game or for a bar at which to stop on the way home, you could do worse. If you are looking for a good neighbor, you'll probably want to move on. read more

The food sounded pretty good, but we never found out. We sat, ignored, for about 20 minutes before walking out. We sat on the upstairs patio and were summarily ignored after being handed menus. The only attention we received was when we finally started walking back down the stairs, hungry and parched. But too little, too late. There are plenty of great restaurants in the neighborhood (with great service), don't waste your time here. read more

Came here to watch the Giants game since it wasn't on at home. Decided to partake in some $2 mimosas and my friends tried the $3 bloody mary's. We knew we'd be here for a while so we decided to eat smething right away and then again later. I had the wings in the barbalo sauce, combo of buffalo and bbq. They were really good, had a bit of a kick but it evened out w/the sweetness of the bbq sauce. My friends had fried green tomatoes, which I didn't try but have had them and I really like them, and spinach and atrichoke dip, that was really good too. After a few hours we decided to eat again and we had grilled cheeses all around. My nephews had them here once and we all kept stealing bites because it was so good! I got mac and cheese as a side and the others got fries and sweet potato fries. Grilled cheese was delish but the sides are not their strong point. Fries are bit soggy and the mac and cheese was okay, but I didn't find myself digging in like I normally would. I like it here, the beers are decently priced, its a nice bar, and the staff is pretty good. I was here early so parking wasn't an issue, but I know it can be. The clientele was very mixed, there were families, couples out for brunch, some elderly people, plenty of rowdy football fans, but nobody off putting. All in all I like it here and tend to forget about it. I will def be back! read more

A warehouse full of whiskey -sure, sounds like fun. A few of us dropped by Whiskey Warehouse after a late dinner down the street. We arrived around 9:30 pm on a Friday night and, while it wasn't super crowded it was starting to fill up. The music was definitely loud and they were playing all sorts of tunes, mostly rap & pop when I was there. I agree with Julia S. - the crowd was pretty frat like - but frat brothers 10 years post-college. We were able to order drinks right away and the bartender was fairly friendly and efficient. Just as their namesake states, they have an extensive whiskey menu, and I would hope the servers are helpful in those selections, but none of us partook in those libations. They also had a decent wine selection, too. Inside, WW sports a number of big flats screens and a partial brick/industrial feel inside. I imagine if you can score a table, this would be a good spot to hang with some friends for a few hours. They also offered some fairly sweet daily drink specials - one that caught my eye is their Sunday drink special - $2 mimosas and $3 Bloody Marys. Mmmmm hmmm...can't wait until noon on Sunday! read more

First review I've felt entitled to write on Yelp since I've had the app for 4 + years and I just have one question to ask..... REALLY? Tried to enjoy dinner Togo after a long day but instead of a tasty buffalo chicken sandwich all I could taste was charcoal. Can't imagine the person who made this sandwich wanting to eat it themselves, so why serve it to a customer? Not to mention had they just decided to remake the toast instead of selling the burnt one it only would have taken an extra 2 minutes seeing it's only takes 2 minutes to properly toast bread. Reasons why I won't be coming back, because that is just pure laziness and lack of care, which are two qualities I don't want in someone preparing my food. read more

Whiskey Warehouse - Spicy Buffalo Chicken - Pubs Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

It's a shame this place is getting such poor reviews. I had a great experience here last Thurs. night the staff was more than friendly and how can you beat half priced wine by the glass or bottlev-that will bring me back any night. I enjoyed the atmosphere and my whiskey shots. I think this is a great place to bring a group for some cocktails. This place has a lot of potential can't wait to come back and check out the menu and some more whiskey. read more

Solid neighborhood place to chill with friends or grab a good meal. I'm particularly fond of Sunday's when the bloody mary bar is set up. They've got a lot of TV's set up and play some good music. And ladies...it doesn't have a feel of a sports bar, so no worries there. I've had the fish & chips here a few times and it's my go to meal. Not the best I've ever had, but let's be honest...it's fried fish and fried potatoes...score! read more

I took a friend out for a birthday dinner before a party and we ordered several appetizers and a pitcher of White Sangria! The Sangria was not on the menu but it's one of my favorite drinks so we asked if they had it and the waitress confirmed, They do have white and red Sangria! ( I should have asked for the price it was $35 for the pitcher "insert dramatic gasp") We ordered the white sangria, meatballs, steak bites, pan Nachos, and Buffalo Shrimp! I throughly enjoyed the buffalo shrimp and we had enough to take home half an order. I also would recommend the steak bites! The nachos were pretty good! We sent the meatballs back as my friend stated the meat didn't taste like beef. I didn't personally try them! Overall, our server was pleasant and the service was acceptable even with a full house! I have a tomato allergy so the waitress was super attentive to that detail and helped to customize what we ordered! read more

Super cute spot for lunch, on the roof top! They have a great $4 Bloody Mary bar--there were so many mixes and add-ins to choose from. The food was great; I had the buffalo chicken wrap with curly fries (best curly fries ever), and the portions are perfect. Definitely will be back! read more

I'm a tad overdue on my update. Several visits later and Whiskey isn't has horrible as the rep it seems to have accrued. Yes the fratty crowd hasn't changed much, but it's quite an eclectic fratty crowd. My last visit was for the UFC fight and I got lots of free schwag. Free schwag, whaaa!? Bud light sponsored the event and gave us free hats, key chain can openers, t-shirts, bottle sleeve/glove coozy thingy and free beer! Free beer, whaaa? The drink specials are decent, $3 for OMB Copper on Saturday nights at a place that looks this new and nice?? That's a steal. Food isn't too shabby either. Good fried green tomatoes, decent wings, decent Mac n Cheese, and the barrel burger is pretty fulfilling and rad. What is the barrel burger you say? Well my friend, it's a tasty meat patty topped with chili and a fried egg of course! The DJ still plays a lil' too much Kesha and crap though. read more

Two things I absolutely love in this world: whiskey and rooftop patios. Clearly, I was destined to end up at Whiskey Warehouse at some point during my Charlotte visit. The rooftop has a great environment and view, service isn't bad, and the drinks are abundant, especially those pitchers! Any of them with whiskey were my favorites, but I probably don't need to tell you that twice. Great to share with a few friends and really just enjoying a beautiful spring night in Charlotte. As with most rooftop patios, it got packed really quickly here (and probably does on most nights) so be ready to wait for a table to open up. read more

Met some friends here on Sunday for drinks and food. I've stopped in here for drinks before but had never ordered any food. They had bloody marys for $3, along with mimosa's, redneck mimosa's, and bud lights for $2. I thought the redneck mimosa's were especially good; they are a mixture of lions head beer, orange juice, and a splash of ginger ale. I'm not a huge salmon fan but the the salmon salad looked especially good for $9 and the chicken tenders were nicely breaded and very fresh. I had the southern sandwich which consisted of a fried chicken breast on a bun with bacon, pimento cheese, lettuce, and tomato on top...great sandwich! read more

This place is chill. Cool environment. Good location. Service was great. Drink prices were good. Craft drinks are delicious

Warning: A Sunday funday could end up with you showing your ass to strangers. Not saying, just saying. I go here a bunch, no doubt. It is, in my mind, one of THE Charlotte Sunday spots. Beyond the Sundays, a nice view, good beer prices and food that is hit and miss for me. I definitely like it as a bar, just luke warm on the food. read more

I went there on a friday night with a couple friends and we had some drinks and dinner. I agree that this place pretty much seems outta place with its location and some of the douche bags it appears to draw. Maybe they will draw a better customers in the future but as long as the crowd they have now is spending, then management is probably perfectly ok with them. I had the salmon which was delicious and we all shared the nachos app which was pretty spicy but also delicious. I found the beer selection to be moderately priced, maybe leaning a little towards expensive. I didn't bother with the whiskey menu as that stuff pretty much turns me into a raging asshole. The decor of the place was cozy and it seemed to be laid out fairly well. However, the parking there sucks and we were lucky to get a spot. I'd probably give this place 4 stars but for the time being the frat boy customers look like they've all just graduated from Buckhead Saloon downtown and brought their doucheness to a new venue for display. Go check it out if you've got a chance. I probably wouldn't recommend being a regular though. read more

3-star is generous, it's more like 2.5-star for my recent visit on Thursday to meet friends for drinks. The place was pretty packed for 9pm. The 4 of us got some appetizers. Nachos was HORRIBLE. For $8, it definitely did not worth the price. Can't believe I'm going to say this, but I would rather go to Taco Hell (I mean Bell) and get nacho there. The pimento cheese spread was ok, look a little odd since it was mostly shredded cheese. It had a little kick to it. Not sure tortilla chips is the best companion for it... The best was the fried cheese balls. We ordered wine that night, it was half-price bottle night. Same as my original review, nothing to complain about the drinks. Now on to service. It was fine for the most part. And just when you think something improved, one of the 3 waitresses that served our table (and she acted like she's the more "senior" of the 3) came over at 11ish, stopped us in the middle of our conversation and asked if we could tap out because she would much rather go home. REALLY?! Here's a news flash: how about get your rude & lazy butt home and let someone else finish out our table and get the tips that you obviously didn't deserve. I worked in restaurants before, I waited tables, so I'm not just talking out of a pie hole with no merit. That just totally rubbed me the wrong way. All these months later, food was still so-so (super sub-par for nacho... a bar food staple that's really not hard to master) and the service still needed improvement. read more

My New Favorite Bar in Charlotte.... What's not to like about this spot? Whiskey Warehouse is the rare bar that perfectly mixes the concoction of bar, food, screens, service, patio-area/view and overall ambiance that make any bar worth going to. Bar: Every time I've been here they have had some sort of beer special; from $2 bud lites, to $3 micro brews, to $4 Jack Daniels you-call-its. R.B.V.s are also reasonably priced around $18 for two, which is more than straight. Food: I can honestly say this place has some of the best bar food anywhere in Charlotte - for real. I have eaten here multiple times and everything I have had has been awesome. I recently had the Monterrey Chicken Sandwich, which I can say was hands-down one of the best chicken sandwiches I have ever had - every sandwich should have pepper-jack cheese and guacamole! I have also had the wings here on multiple occasions. The wings always come well sauced, meaty, well cooked, and with a cold, thick ranch. If you've read my other reviews, then you know how important it is to me that they char their wings. That's right folks, the wings are thrown on a grill for a min before they bring them out to you. I had the chance to eat brunch here last Sunday, and I have to stay I was thoroughly impressed. The toast was a little undercooked, but otherwise the scrambled eggs and bacon were up to par. Screens: I love the fact that they have plenty of television screens littered and hanging from every corner of this bar. Even when you go upstairs to the gorgeous rooftop patio, they have plenty of television screens embedded within the bar area. Patio/View: Speaking of the rooftop patio - @ WW you will find nothing short of the most SPECTACULAR and BREATHTAKING VIEW OF THE CHARLOTTE SKYLINE anywhere! There is plenty of seating and they have full waitress and bar service. I also appreciate the H20 mist they have cooling down the patrons at the bar. Though BEWARE fellas, many ladies are leery of the mist interacting with their hair! Service: Great service. My order has always been correct each time I've ordered food or drinks. I am preferential to the bar staff simply because of easier access to drinks, and closer views of the television screens. I've tried to come up with something not to like about this place and I can't. Prices are reasonable. Though tight, they do indeed have a parking lot. I meant what I said to start this review, I love Whiskey Warehouse, its my new favorite bar in Charlotte and I will def be back - hope to see you there! PS: FYI: Monday WW has 1/2 price wings. They serve brunch on Sunday's starting at 11am! $3 bloody Mary's on SUNDAYS!!! read more

I love the fairly new rooftop patio here - just awesome! My only complaint is that you cannot get food service there. I will say the bartenders were very accommodating and friendly. We went downstairs (after about a 10 minute wait) to get a table for 6. 15 minutes later no one even greeted us - I asked a nearby server if she was ours and she replied no, I then asked if she would get the server who was ours. 10 minutes later still nothing so I went back to the hostess who about 10 minutes later sent over that original server who claimed we weren't hers. If they were really busy I might have understood but we watched our "server" flirt with several guys at the bar and then stand around and chit-chat at the hostess station. After I explained to her that we would be leaving she just lamely said "oh sorry" . We went over to Jacks where the service was fantastic. I think management really needs to work on giving great service because they missed out on 6 dinners and several drinks...not to mention I may think twice about going there on game-day due to poor service. read more

Drinks were great and the bartender sara took amazing care of us. She was super attentive and made sure we were never in need for a cold boy. Will definitely be back and asking for Sara's section! read more

The vibe is super cool and the wings are really good. My server Juliette was super nice and helped me pick out a good drink!

My husband and I decided to come here last Sunday, since we heard the upstairs roof patio was awesome.......it definitely did not let down!!! What an incredible view of the city! There are tv's all around the bar so you can watch a game and just enjoy the weather. I ordered the mimosa ($2 on Sunday or $4 for a doube.....of course you have to get the double) and my husband ordered an OMB beer. They didnt have a ton of draft selections up there, but I am assuming their selection downstairs was larger. Nice champagne to OJ (aka 2/3 champagne) pour! I also ordered the chorizo sandwich with sweet potato fries. It had a fried egg and jack cheese on top. Very good! It was fairly busy but we were able to find two seats at the bar. Will absolutely return! read more

I read the reviews before hitting up Whiskey Warehouse and wasn't entirely sure what to expect. On the one hand, a place that purports to specialize in bourbons and whiskeys and conveniently has a vegetarian menu; on the other hand, reports of a sports bar vibe and a fratty clientele. Hm. Still, my brother is a big bourbon drinker and wanted to give it a try. We rolled in around 8:30 on a Saturday night and were able to snatch a booth with a good view of the USC/Florida game. Our server was perky and did her best to be helpful but admitted she wasn't much of a bourbon drinker. She was, however, chatty and amply cleavaged, and given the crowd, the noise, and the TVs, seemed to be appropriate for the type of clientele WW apparently wants to service. (And, yes, it's true - the clientele was decidedly frat-tastic.) What I really wanted from WW was a dark, more intimate, saloony-style place, perhaps with servers who actually knew what they were serving and with management who cared more about the whiskey than about the game. Unfortunately, Whiskey Warehouse is just another generic sports bar dressed up as a concept bar. Meh. read more
