I think Ed's may be one of the only true neighborhood bars in Charlotte. They have very good bar food at a decent price. They also have a good beer list. They are always having some great specials as well. I have been to there trivia a couple times and it is usually packed. The trivia is one of the best around. We really emjoy playing there Sappo game over there. If you have been there before and never seen it, it's in the corner next to the pool tables. Dont be afraid to try it with some friends. It is a really cool bar game. Ed's tends to be steadily busy every night and the servers are always great.
