This terrific new addition to Charlotte's brewery scene has set up shop in the space formerly occupied by Olde Mecklenburg Brewery (now conveniently down the street). Specializing in Belgian beers, Sugar Creek serves up a wonderful Pale Ale, a tasty Saison, and an award-winning Belgian Dubble, among other offerings.
The spacious Tap Room also offers a small menu of sandwiches and salads, and a large adjoining space works great for corporate events or meetings. But get there early, as parking can get a little tight -- especially on weekdays, when the surrounding businesses are open.
