Where to Drink Guinness in the Charlotte Area This Holiday Season | Eater
"This isn’t a polished TVs-in-every-corner bar; this is a downhome, unflashy classic from the ‘90s. A wander through Sir Ed’s reveals vintage Guinness posters, a table or two of avid card players, and a bar of solo regulars. Its location in Park Road Shopping Center gives it a tucked-away vibe it feels like the outside world washes away when dining here. Refreshingly, there aren’t a lot of phones in sight, either. Instead, all eyes are on the prize: a pint of Guinness and a plate of chips. The exhaustive lineup of classic entrees are generously-sized and may end up being shared family-style by the large groups that squeeze into the corners here. The Yeats quote painted right at the pub’s entry says it all: “There are no strangers here; only friends you haven’t yet met.”" - Kayleigh Ruller
