Primal Brewery Huntersville

Huntersville location: Deducted one star due to it being located along a busy roadway. A valiant effort was made though, to mitigate the noise with strategically placed fencing and landscaping materials.

It seemed like the owners set out to create three separate spaces to provide three distinct experiences for their patrons. Allow me to explain.

The yard is quite large with a a covered tap, corn hole arena, and a large tent provides lots of shaded seating. There was an unaffiliated food truck on the premises the day we visited but we did not partake—we came with our drinking caps on! This is the preferred space for expert day drinkers to congregate when the weather is fair. Everything out here was well conceived and perfectly executed.

The interior has a large bar space over which the many beer selections are proudly displayed. Pub decor prevails in this dimly lit, cozy space with plenty of high top tables opposite the bar area. This spaces lends itself well for those seeking to catch a buzz when the weather is foul.

The “game room” offers activities for those who enjoy multi-tasking while they imbibe—pool tables, darts, pinball and related games abound in this garage-like space.

Overall the folks at Primal have created some great brews and provided a fantastic setting for you to enjoy them. It’s worth venturing away from the swarmed Uptown area of Charlotte to sample what Primal has to offer!

Love coming here weekly for dart night! My husband and I are definitely amateurs, but everyone is so welcoming and sweet. The drinks are great, the space is perfect, and the people are the best! We've also had fun at the trivia nights and other events.

We really enjoyed this place. They have a great selection of beer. Nice patio and band on the weekend. Service was great. I would definitely recommend this place.

Our family loves Primal Brewery! The beer is excellent, the snacks are great, and the way they support the community is truly special. We especially appreciate the open space where our kids can run around and play—it makes the experience enjoyable for the whole family. The staff is always friendly and attentive. We couldn’t recommend this place more!

We rented their garage room for a graduation party this past weekend! It was perfect! They were so easy to work with, reasonable price, great atmosphere and owner is awesome! He welcomed us in- helped us set up audio and video then let us do our thing! Such a great experience! It was perfect for a graduation party with pool table, darts, pinball machines and cornhole- the kids loved it and then access to the bar for adults!!! I can’t say enough good things about it! Highly recommend!!!

Primal is a spot of family, camaraderie, acceptance, inclusion, pet friendly and above all COMMUNITY. Oh, and darn good beer, great team, a place to have in your sphere.

Beer sales appear to be the priority above the safety of the patrons. I was physically assaulted at this establishment, and after a meeting with a manager, was not taken seriously. I discovered that they do not have a zero-tolerance policy against violence while being informed they “will not close the doors to anyone.” Plenty of other breweries in the area for me to enjoy and feel safe at. I would not recommend this place.

Edit in response: Two sides? Perspective? Unseen truths? I showed you the bruises. My neck was twisted, my back & knee were also injured, as well as personal property got broken. You are a stranger to the truth. There wasn't even an argument or anything that lead up to it. I was attacked. Never an excuse for violence. I was assaulted, we talked, you said you are not closing the doors to anyone. I said then I no longer feel safe there. You shrugged, said that's the end of it. What kind of manager do you want to be moving forward? Obviously one that condones violence.

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

Loved this place. Amazing service! The beertender gave me a few samples. They had such an amazing selection. Was hard for me to choose. I loved the space/ had a cozy space by the drafts and then a separate room with tables and pinball machines. They also had a huge outdoor space! I had the seasonal ginger snap ale- was sooo good. I will definitely go back!

Food trucks always slay! Staff is hilarious (especially rylie)! Will def come back ??

Very good beer. I like the amber waves a lot

Very chill spot and great beer! Thanks for being dog friendly! Food trucks are usually there for food.

Rylie and connie are beauiful and great people beer is good check it out! Lots of great people and dog friendly!

Rylie and Connie were amazing! They had a lot of beer knowledge to share and we always look forward to seeing them!

Primal Brewery in Huntersville, NC is an outstanding brewery. I have been there on multiple occasions for the past few years and I have never complained about any aspect of the brewery. The customer service is fabulous. Even when the brewery is crowded, the staff is extremely attentive and I don't think I've ever waited for a beer more than a few minutes. The beer selection is top notch. They always seem to have a specific beer for ones palette. The atmosphere is very quaint and feels homey. Plenty of seating is available and the establishment is very clean. I want to provide special attention to Paige, one of customer service employees . I believe she handles public information. She is fabulous! I've inquired repeatedly about the brewery and she is always prompt and answers all my questions. A wonderful PI employee. Primal Brewery is one of the best breweries in the metro area. I highly suggest the Pumpulicious. It's phenomenal. As a master cicerone, I would score it at 95-100 on BA.
