| - Ahhh VBGB--Long time visitor, first time reviewer.
Better put your craft-beer pants on folks, because this place ain't serving pitchers of Bud Light.
This place is exactly what Charlotte needed, and sits nestled directly in the heart of the Charlotte Music Factory. It's kind of a no-frills atmosphere, where everything is counter service; I think it works well, because whether you're indoors or out, there is always an opening to order a beer.
Also, I think at this point in our city's maturity, unless you have a solid patio/rooftop/outdoor area, you're not quite as cool as everyone else...and wow, does VBGB have an excellent patio. Drinking games abound--ping pong, jenga, cornhole, you name it, they've got it.
This place is also perrrrrrfect for the pre-show beer if you're going to either the Fillmore or the TW Amphitheater. A quick stop in for a Birdsong Higher Ground IPA, NoDa 10 Blocks South, or whatever local beer they've got on tap that night, and you'll get right in the groove prior to the show.
Last but not least, don't underestimate the food! One of those big-ass Pretzels & some beer cheese?---as our friends from NY say, fahgettaboudit!
