If you have a dog that you love, a dog bar might be the perfect way to spend an afternoon. Dog bars have become increasingly popular in Charlotte. They’re a way to enjoy two of the best things at the same time — dogs and beer.
Even if you don’t have a dog to bring, you can enjoy the entertainment of other patrons’ dogs.
Most dog bars require humans to be 21 or over. Dogs need to be up-to-date on their vaccinations and need to be spayed or neutered if old enough.
