Selwyn Avenue Pub — Restaurant in Charlotte

I do not know the name of the bartender but I have to say, I went here for the first time today so obviously didn't know the "protocol" of ID at the front, etc. I'm 6 months pregnant and was just meeting friends, stopped for a cookout milkshake on the way so I had something to drink while they sipped their beers. There were very few tables with patrons when I walked in. I walked in and looked at my people, but the guy at the front sort of looked at me funny. I didn't realize he was waiting on my ID (which I had left in the car because my husband was already sitting down with his wallet and I knew I wouldn't be drinking anything but water). My milkshake was not out for all to see, it was behind my phone and I was not being flagrant about it. I went to sit and the bartender yelled behind the bar, the guy from the front caught me and said I wasn't allowed outside drink. Everyone at my table said "SHES PREGNANT, let her stay!" but the bartender then wouldn't look at me and the front guy had no choice but to "kick me out" until I finished my milkshake. I was not about to chug a milkshake in order to sit down and drink water so I went to my car and cried and left. They should've never treated me like that and I will never...

This place completely sucks. I really can't believe so many people rate this so high. The service is absolutely terrible and the outdoor bar and patio area is really gross. I don't think they have cleaned anything in months. There were nasty flies and gnats everywhere, probably due to the sticky unwiped bar, dirty tables and nasty/sticky/wet floor. The bartenders are really bad. The worst I've seen in maybe ten years. They give off a gigantic vibe of REALLY not caring about anyone or anything. It felt like they almost enjoyed ignoring patrons and moving slowly, making people wait to order or receive simple things like a menu or your bill. They also let 50+ yr old creeps hang out at the end of the bar and stare at everyone. Basically, the service here sucks, it's a gross nasty mess, and I can't believe people would spend money here. It's hard to have all of these things going for you and still succeed in the age of Google and yelp reviews, so my only guess is this place has been around forever and older people are nostalgic about it. I'll...

This place must be under new management and that is DEFINITELY NOT A GOOD THING. I visited Selwyn Pub over the weekend. I ordered pizza and "crispy" wings to go. While I waited I was "treated" to conversation between the servers. One waitress spoke of her aspirations to be a stripper and how her boyfriend supported her. The bartender (female) and another server rattled off gossip. The servers and cooks could be clearly seen eating consistently in the window to the kitchen. What I didn't see was them washing their hands after stuffing their face. When I got home (20 miles away) with my order, I was BEYOND disappointed. The pizza was poorly crafted and barely had anything on it. The wings weren't "crispy", they were burned. Maybe the cooks could have gotten it right if they weren't so busy eating. I have absolutely LOVED Selwyn Ave Pub over the years. After my most recent experience, I will NEVER go back. They have definitely...
