29 Best Sports Bars near Indian Trail

“It's been years since I have had food at a Hickory Tavern. I ordered the Smokehouse burger, and it was delicious. It came out fairly quickly. Our server was really good. I can't remember her name, but she was working the bar on December 9th, we were at table 33 (the three sisters). We want to thank her again! She was quick, nice, and understanding.“

“Both my girls learned to skate here. The program and coaches were engaging and knew how to get the kids moving. Now 3 years later we are a part of the girls hockey program and still love this rink and staff.“

“Great food! Great atmosphere! Laid back and chill!!“

“I come to pick up my brother in mint hill( he can’t drive) we always go to dunwelz. I love this place. Friendly people and always love my food. I give. This place 5 stars.“

“One of my favorite live music joints in town. All their programming is excellent, but I especially enjoy Bill Hannah's jazz sessions on Monday night. Personnel is super cool, and they even have a room for photo and other arts exhibits. Don't miss it!“

“Cleanest sports bar in Charlotte. Food is great- so many TVs- and side cars for groups. Owner is very friendly and accommodating.“

“Awesome staff and the food is amazing! Has a fun atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“Christopher's is a good restaurant/bar with good service but lack of military discount was disappointing. 4/5“

“Brazilian Way Sports Bar is a fantastic spot in Matthews! They just reopened by a new administration! The lively atmosphere, authentic live music, and delicious Brazilian food make every visit special. The staff are welcoming and attentive, and there’s always a great vibe—whether you’re watching a game, listening to great music or just hanging out. Highly recommend for a fun night out. Kids are also welcomed :)“

“I can’t say enough about my incredible experience at Mexicali Restaurant! From the moment I walked in, I was met with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience.

The service was absolutely outstanding. Brithney and Stefanie went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the meal.

Now, onto the food—wow! I started with the guacamole, which was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The sopes were an absolute highlight: crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and topped with the most delicious ingredients. A pitcher of margaritas was the perfect pairing—refreshing, tangy, and just the right amount of kick. To top it all off, the flan was the grand finale I didn’t know I needed: creamy, silky, and a perfect blend of sweetness to end the meal on a high note.

Mexicali Restaurant delivers not just incredible food but an exceptional dining experience, thanks to amazing servers like Brithney and Stefanie. I’ll definitely be back soon and recommending this spot to everyone I know!“

“Love this place! Bartenders are so friendly! Mel and Nick and great! Love their onion soup, pizza and drinks! Highly recommend!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Darts, Drinks & Personal Development”
From this week’s “Sticky Rice & Sweet Tea – After Dark Edition”

I don’t go out much. My usual nightlife consists of refrigerator light and a cozy existential crisis. But in the spirit of not regretting life on my deathbed (which feels closer every time I eat fried mushrooms), I ventured to Midtown Country Club.

And you know what? I had fun. Like, honest-to-goodness, looked-up-darts-on-Amazon-after kind of fun. Learned how to play darts with some tragically unbalanced plastic ones, and still managed to feel like an Olympic athlete in the glow of good vibes.

Shoutout to the bartender—this man is a sober cocktail sorcerer. I asked for something citrusy, low sugar, no alcohol, and he handed me a cup of mystery that tasted like a sunset on a fresh start. Give that man a bonus and a playlist deal.

The crowd? Surprisingly lovely. Diverse, relaxed, unbothered. And as someone who usually stiffens up around groups of gays I don’t know (read: trauma, shade, and past brunches), Sean’s friends were actually warm and welcoming. It reshaped some deep-seated expectations I didn’t realize I was still carrying.

All in all, 5 stars for a Tuesday night that gave me community, a tasty mocktail, and a hobby that now requires wrist coordination and a budget.

“Although the bar is small, plenty of seats available with a nice outdoor deck. Good prices on beer and Drinks. Great bartenders and small menu with good food. Lots of friendly regulars and newbies always welcome.“

“Desmond us an AMAZING bartender. The food and drinks are great, and price is right. Thanks for the AWESOME time!“

“I’d be remiss to begin a review without sharing that Madelyn is an incredible server. We are frequently here because of her welcoming spirit. We appreciate how inclusive it feels for customers of all ages. While we’d love to see corporate put in some effort in the aging atmosphere, the restaurant is consistently clean.“

“it's a vibe with food, fun, and music. Friendly Staff Good Food Average Priced. Lunch Specials Nightly 💃 Family friendly like any other establishment before midnight 👊🏾“

“Felicite is an amazing bartender! Always smiling and serving quickly. We will be back“

“Always an amazing experience coming here!! Been coming here for months with friends and family and always have such an incredible time! Ms.Jackie always is so welcoming and makes the visit so worth it each time!“

“We love Cornerstone. It’s got a neighborhood vibe that’s accessible. Lots of TVs for your favorite events, great cocktails , large beer selection. But the food is great! Try the best mozzarella sticks you ever had, hot stretchy delicious cheese with the perfect crust. We had fish and chips tonight, just delicious.
Highly recommended!“

“Came to Hickory Tavern for the first time tonight and all I can say is Wow, my expectations were exceeded. The food was delicious and our server Kara was amazing, she did a great job. She was very sweet and attentive and able to answer all of our questions. She suggested the spinach dip and it was so good we ended up getting a second one …. LOL. I also got the Chicken & Rice, my husband the Pow Pow shrimp. Sooo good, 12/10. We will definitely be coming back soon and requesting Kara again as our server. Thanks for a great experience, HT!!!“

“This was a really nice place to visit and have a meal. We were in town for business and wanted to eat somewhere other than a chain restaurant. The food here was very good and hot when it arrived at the table. The service was very good and we felt like we were being taken care of. Everyone working there played a part in making sure we had everything we needed. If you like pub food, this is definitely the place to go!!“

“2nd time here because the first time was excellent. This time, however, was lacking. I ordered the calzone. The cheese was at one end, the frozen spinach, canned mushrooms and raw onions were at the other end. Not edible.“

“I just wanted to send a big thank you to the staff that were in front of the store tonight taking care of peoples orders and seating them. I had ordered a pizza bowl and forgot to add their delicious meatballs. So when I came to pick it up, I told them about what I missed when I ordered it. They made me a whole new pizza bowl at no charge. I just wanted to thank them so much! Dec 3rd at 5:30 PM“

“I'm not sure why the reviews for this location is bad. The food was excellent, my man and I went on a Tuesday night, it was empty. We did the 2 for $25 we each got 2 meals and an appetizer. There's an upcharge for the streak and shrimp but portions are large, everything was fresh. Our server Savanah was quick and friendly, checked on us multiple times and gave an update with everything.“

“Great atmosphere, wait staff, and....food!! By far, the best authentic Colombian food in Charlotte.“

“One of the Bdubs I’ve been to!“
