I tell everyone that this is the most under-rated bar in Charlotte!
The space is HUGE with a freaking pool...how many other bars can offer that? You do not have to be a guest at the hotel to hang out by the pool during the day, there are even options to rent a cabana. Inside, there are multiple bar games and comfortable seating areas available. They have T.V.'s and the view of the city is great.
Every day they offer a special on one of their appetizers and always have great drink specials. Craft City has a full bar, but the real win is the great craft beer options on draft, they have a great selection.
Service is always friendly and attentive--and the best part...the bartenders can validate your parking! That's right people, free uptown parking.
I always recommend Craft City when I'm meeting friends for drinks, it doesn't get enough credit. This is not just a hotel bar...check it out!
