| - Extremely mediocre at best. Visited Primal Brewery (PB) during the week thanks to a work-sponsored happy hour. When I pulled upon the PB sign, I drove into an unmarked gravel parking lot. However, I turned around and saw the PB parking lot sign so I drove around and parked in their own graveled lot.
When I entered, I was struck by the cabin-in-the-woods feel. There's wood everywhere. Also, they don't seem to have a fully functioning A/C. This was a hot, July evening and the inside was stuffy, to say the least.
I wasn't in the mood for beer, so I was very appreciative that they had a wine list. I ordered a glass of Riesling which ended up being just as clear as tap water poured in a wine glass. Thanks to my coworkers, I was able to sample everyone's beer selection. The peach flavored beer (I forget the actual name) was not a favorite, the saison was good, and the lemon flavored beer was a little bit of a letdown as well.
They have a food truck on site, Lake Norman Grill, that serves a limited menu of hamburgers, hot dogs, fried pickles, fried mac & cheese bites, pretzels, etc. I ordered fried pickles and was given a buzzer to wait for my food. Once my buzzer beeped, I picked up my food and brought in to share with my table. Completely underwhelming.
Also, while at PB, I went to the bathroom. HUGE negative that they have only ONE stall/toilet for ladies. Why is this a thing?!
I'm very thankful for the fact that my job paid for the beverages because I cannot see myself going back to PB to pay for a drink.
