8 Best Craft Breweries near Huntersville

“always a good vibe! love this spot so much i decided to host my wedding shower here!“

“Trivia nights are the bomb!“

“A fantastic addition to downtown! If you want to host a party here or just low-key hang out with your people, this is the place! The owners have done such a great job going above and beyond for the safety for all family members, including fur or child. Excellent food trucks and drink selections. And they are always adding more comfort and design. You will not be disappointed!“

“Awesome (if sometimes eccentric) beers with a VERY large selection. They have something for everyone: Stouts, IPAs, Lagers, Sours. Very chill vibe, almost like the basement rec room. My wife loves the Vienna Lager, I usually get one of the Porters or Stouts, or my old standby Ass Clown IPA.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ BEST IPA’s AROUND! And the serve wine too 😍“

“AC/BC is a great place to get a taste of different types of special brew some beer have a unique German taste. Enjoy the atmosphere with friends and family getting together. Grab a bite to eat from the different rotating food trucks that are parked outside on the premises and wash it down with a nice cold brew 🍺. The owner of AC/BC is a great and proud American Veteran who served his country with honors both in peacetime and in combat. You should come in and buy him a beer for his service. Better yet, come in and support his business and celebrate his commitment to the United States of America.“

“First, the food was excellent. We were there for $1 wing night, and trust, these are some of the best smoked wings I have ever had. My only complaint is that you order sauces, and the wings don’t come sauced, you have to dip the wings in the sauce, which is awkward to eat, especially if sharing, so make sure you ask for individual sauces. We also ordered the hotdog for our daughter, it comes with fries, but they happily substituted it for Mac & cheese, which was good as well. If I was an adult ordering this Mac & Cheese, it could easily be elevated if they added a crispy cheese and bread crumb top layer.

Second, I went to a brewery and felt compelled to talk about the food first, so that is why it is a 4 star and not a 5 star. The beer was okay, but the wonkiness of the service and the absolutely uncomfortable low top chairs, made this a place not top of the list for breweries in the area. I am not surprised by counter service only at a brewery, but I am surprised when I visit a brewery with a restaurant menu then for them to only provide counter service. Once you get your food, counter service makes it inconvenient having to walk away from your party and food to wait in a line at the counter to order your next beer. They need to have a digital solution, where you can order beers through an app, or have someone that walks around and clears glasses and asks if the table needs anymore beer.

I was really impressed that the chef came out of the kitchen to ask us about our meal and gave us some insight on the menu and how the food is prepared. Now imagine if the brewery had someone walking around talking to guests and informing them of the beer options, flavors, and upcoming seasonal batches. What a difference that would have made. But also, those low top table chairs are garbage, I cannot stress that enough. Will we come back to Lost Worlds? maybe…, those wings were so darn good, and now I want to try other menu items.

Ps. We have a 5 year old, so simply moving to a high top table for comfort is not a great option.“

“I was looking forward to having a nice birthday dinner, I haven't been to BJ's in awhile, Berry Burst Cider! As I'm ordering it I was told they were out, then I tried to order another cider and they were out of that one as well. That was disappointing. The Appetizers were good, wings and avocado egg rolls. The entrees were good and the pace was perfect. Our server Christian was very good and checked back often. The dessert was delicious.“
