15 Best Bars in Charlotte

"The Crunkleton, a new craft cocktail bar in Elizabeth, embraces cocktails of a bygone era. “The old-timey drinks are a fulfilling endeavor," says owner Gary Crunkleton. "I like to think that who we were is a part of who we are today. Plus, these old drinks are simply timeless." Crunkleton himself has created lots of inventive drinks, but The Roycroft, with bonded rye whiskey, green chartreuse, cherry Heering, benedictine, fresh lemon juice, and Peychaud's bitters, is a standout. Just know that in order to reserve a table at the bar you'll need to buy a membership that runs $10 a year." - Lauren Levine
