Thirsty Beaver Saloon — Restaurant in Charlotte

Hello, neighbor.

Sometimes, when you’re walking through your neighborhood, you stumble upon a place that doesn’t look fancy… but oh, how it makes you feel.

The Thirsty Beaver is one of those places. It’s a small bar with a big heart. The music is loud, the walls are full of stories, and the floor might be sticky—but that’s just the bar giving you a little hug from your shoes.

Now, I don’t drink too often, but when I do, I like something friendly. I asked for a whiskey sour, and the bartender made it with such kindness and care, I almost cried into my coaster. The balance of sweet and sour reminded me of life itself.

And oh my, the people here! Denim jackets, tattoos, laughter, and even a man who looked like he’d wrestled a jukebox once and lost. But everyone was kind. A young man offered me his barstool, and another told me I looked like someone who “gives good life advice.” That made me feel very special.

The world can be loud and wild, neighbor—but in a place like this, surrounded by good folks and a great mixed drink, it’s nice to remember that we can all belong somewhere.

I like you just the way you are,...

BEST DIVE BAR IN CHARLOTTE. THIS HAS MADE THE TIP TOP OF MY LIST. GREAT JOB!!!!

So here it is. The Thirsty Beaver Saloon. Wow. So parking to get here can be a bit of a challenge unless you drive a Harley. There is plenty of parking around this place and YES IT IS WORTH THE WALK. This dive is it a ratty looking building that takes a rectangular plot of land. It is surrounded by a HUGE MONSTER APARTMENT COMPLEX. The complex engulfs all sides around this gem. When you go inside the place it is your typical dive bar with dim lighting and things are a little ratty. The place is chocked full of characters. The beer here is cheap as well. This is a must see place. This place has so much going on you can't describe it all. You kinda have to use Thirsty Beaver as a descriptive term that you define other places with if you know what i mean (ex. this other bar reminds me of Thirsty Beaver).

DO NOT MISS THIS...

A few people say on their lowest reviews this place is a no good boring place, etc ... Hell, they got cold beer, free Juke Box and Mick Jagger, what else do you want? Brothers Brian and Mark Wilson, along with the owners of the property, the Salems, wouldn't give in to the big wigs, my hero's, they are in the middle of two skyscrapers, so go by and support their business ... Mick just happened to stroll by here thirsty one night on the band's last trip to Charlotte, Keith was back at the hotel takin' a cat nap ... I wonder did Mick leave a big tip? Probably only had 100s in his wallet ... Maybe he left a couple of those ... Guess we'll never know ... What kind of beer did he drink? I bet $2.00 Pabst Blue Ribbon or Miller High Life ... Again folks, drop by and support these David vs Goliah good guys ... Days and times are listed on their Website ... I wonder who'll stroll in next week, maybe Taylor...
