Date Night Bars and Restaurants in Charlotte, North Carolina | Eater
"Substrate doesn’t ooze fancy-schmancy romance, but it does emanate all the refreshingly relaxed and unpretentious vibes you need to keep the evening rolling. This wine and vermouth bar is known for the Spaghett, a bottle of beer topped with Aperol and lemon juice. Beyond cocktails, Substrate offers a selection of ruby and orange-hued natural wines to choose from. For a bar snack, order the tinned fish, which comes with free saltines. There’s minimal seating inside, but the outside patio has plenty of tables and you can typically find live music here. Keep an eye out for nightly specials, like Monday’s industry night or Sunday’s $7 spritz." - Kayleigh Ruller
