Our Mission   At Thomas Street Tavern, we strive to be the best neighborhood bar and restaurant we can be. We are a local, independent, family-owned business that supports our local and independent economy; we stock our kitchen with many natural or organic foods and ingredients from local bakeries, farmer's markets, and other local vendors. Our beverage list boasts an extensive beer and liquor selection, in addition to a small but strong wine list.

It is important to us that you have a comfortable and friendly hangout. To that end, we are open 365 days a year, and are constantly improving our facilities and amenities as well, with the recent upgrade of our air conditioning system and our new wi-fi service available free to restaurant patrons. We encourage an atmosphere of mutual respect, as can be seen in the diversity and uniqueness of our clientele. With the owner's extensive experience in the bar business (since 1962), combined with our commitment to serve and support you and our community, we hope to become and remain your neighborhood bar and restaurant.

The Front Patio

From the moment you arrive at this unique "Neighborhood Bar," you will notice a difference. The main entrance is located through an outside patio area equipped with tables and music for your comfort, and umbrellas and trees for shade.

Here, even though you are outdoors, you can enjoy full food and beverage service, as well as piped-out music. You can be the first to greet friends as they arrive.

On top of this, it is nice to know that out here on the front patio, it is "Pet Friendly" in every way. So bring Fido and feel the fun at Thomas Street Tavern!

The Inside

Inside you will find the main dining area and the bar, in a warm and friendly atmosphere where everyone that is anyone is welcome, as evidenced by our diverse, ecIectic, and mutually respectful crowd.

We offer a jukebox that is overstocked with a wide variety of music styles including Blues, Rock, Old Jazz and Beach. Whatever your taste in tunes, you are sure to find it here.

If you're in the mood for a little activity, there's always foosball or the pool table, tucked away in a private nook back in the corner. Our regulation set-up is sure to satisfy. Whether you want to groove with a group of friends, meet some new people or just take in the news, weather and sports on one of our seven different televisions, Thomas Street is a solid choice.

For the hunger or thirst in you, we offer a full menu where we boast a 60% organic and natural selection of favorites and build-your-owns. You can wash that meal down properly with a mixed drink or fine draft beer from our full service bar, or one of our over 60 bottled beers. Whatever your taste, you are sure to find it here at the Thomas Street Tavern.

The Back Patio / Beer Garden

Stroll through the bar and out the back doors and you will find yourself in our "Beer Garden". Venture out to the roomy patio and get a breath of fresh air.

One of the few in Charlotte, this outdoor delight offers a fully stocked bar as well as food service from inside. As a bonus, the back patio has two ping-pong tables set up, and like our front patio, it is pet-friendly back there as well.

You can sit back and relax with a beer and your wi-fi-enabled laptop, and surf the web or check your email using our free wi-fi service.

The back patio opens around 5:00 pm on weekdays and 3:00 pm on the weekends.
