Connolly's On Fifth

Where to Drink Guinness in the Charlotte Area This Holiday Season | Eater

"Connolly’s has been a nightlife staple in the Queen City since 2001. The downstairs boasts a casual, conversational pub feel, but the second floor has more of a dance party vibe to it, ushering in a post-college crowd at night. In the heart of Uptown, Connolly’s is a proud hotspot for watching Gaelic football matches, too. With pints of a malty, creamy Guinness at the ready, it’s just easy to be festive here, especially during Connolly’s “light the pub” night where garlands get strung, fairy lights go up, and hot chocolate is passed around." - Kayleigh Ruller
