Bulldog Taproom/Social Club — Restaurant in Charlotte

Let me start off by saying that I was illegally and fraudulently charged at Bulldog. This

is my first ever review on yelp. So I'm not some crazy person who leaves bad reviews on every time there is bad service.

This was my first time to Bulldog's and it will be my last. We walk in, cool vibe, playing darts, I go to get a drink, there are 2 bartenders. One was really nice and I got 1 drink (my first drink of the night, to clarify I was NOT wasted). I went to get a second beer and the other bartender would NOT take my order. She wouldn't even look me in the eye. At one point I was the only person at the bar trying to get a drink and she just walked away and started to talk to some guys at the end of the bar... cool. So I walked away to see if I could get the other bartenders attention. A group of girls approached me and said "yea don't even try to get a drink from that one, she refuses to serve females. I don't know what her problem is." Ok got it.

I went back up to the bar and after a solid couple of minutes I got her attention. I did not act frustrated or upset, I just simply asked for an East Ciders Original. She then took another guys order and I specificity heard him say it was a Wicked Weed Pernicsomthing or other because I thought it was a weird name. Clearly I'm not a beer girl.

She came back with his beer and not mine. Ok, weird. He was holding out his card to give to her and she grabs my card and his card and goes to get my cider. She comes back with my cider and then swipes my card and asks if I want to close out and I said yes. She then proceeds to give his blue Chase card back to him. Then hands me my card with the receipt. The guy asks "do I need to sign anything" and her response was "no don't worry about it." Ok.

I look down at my bill and it has both his beer and my cider on the bill. I nicely confronted her about it and said "I saw what you just did there and that is not cool. Can i please speak with your manager?" she said "I am the manager." Yea ok.... So I ask "Ok well can I have the information of who owns this place?" she said, "I own it." ...... ok you're lying but that is fine. I didn't cause a scene because it isn't worth it right?

I told her I wanted a refund and she said "I will refund you but you still need to pay for your cider." I told her "listen, I work in customer service and I literally just watched you WILLINGLY put someone elses drink on my card. On purpose. 100%. I do not want 2 charges from this facility because I do not trust that you will cancel the first payment." She wouldn't let it go...

I said fine. It is what it is. I just paid for both beers, left and vowed not to come back.

I am writing this because I took a look at my bank statements and it looks like little miss bartender decided to give herself a $20 tip! So instead of my bill being like $12, it's $32! Again, 100% knowing it was wrong and ILLEGAL she stole more of my money.

That's totally fine. Take my money girl, I truly don't care. I just want everyone who decides to come to Bulldog to please monitor your charges and be mindful (especially if you've been drinking) of your bill at the end of the night as well as the bank statement in the following days when they are closed out.

I still have my receipt...

Went to the new bulldog 2.0 for the first time 2 weekends ago on 4/20. Had my dog with me (who is also a registered service dog) and wanted to stop in for one beer before heading back home. The blonde girl who was bartending that night refused service because of my dog. She explained to me how the owner is very strict and will not allow dogs in the building therefore she couldn't serve me at all or allow me to buy anything from there. I am extremely disappointed in the service. I used to love the old Bulldog on Winnifred but after this experience I will not be coming back. Do not recommend unless you enjoy being greeted by...

This place is lit but in the chill way. It seems new and wasn't super crowded, which was amazing since our visit was during a Sunday Playoff game. They have one of my favorite Tennessee craft beers too. Got to play billiards and darts without having to pay or fight for it, that is more than I can say for the other two bars we visited that day. Only reason for one less star is the door to the mens room doesn't latch properly. Oh yeah and the porcelain faces the door. I found out one of the patrons likes to stand and wipe.... Well at least the show was free. Will...
