Afton Pub & Pizza

So disappointed. Arrived a little after 6pm, 2 adults, 2 kids in our party. Was sooo hungry. This was my first time sitting down for a real meal after a busy work day. We asked to sit outside because it was SUPER cold inside. It was moderately busy. We were seated promptly and our order was taken. Lillie, our server was pleasant. We ordered kids spaghetti, kids pepperoni pizza, 10” pepperoni pizza and salad for my husband (same exact pizza as kids size), and I ordered soup with grilled chicken on the side. It took forever. We were still waiting for our food an hour later. It was literally starting to get dark and get cold outside. The patron beside us even commented about how long it was taking for any food to arrive at our table. She asked what we ordered. Lillie apologized for the wait several times as it got later and later. FINALLY, at 7:17pm, we started to get food, thankfully the kids’ arrived first. We asked for my husband’s pizza to be boxed to go. My husband asked for my soup and chicken to be boxed as well. My patience was out the window by this point. I had a headache because I really needed to eat. No way soup and 5 strips of chicken (overcooked and not grilled) should be the last thing coming to the table. We paid, tipped, and left to finish eating at home. Worst experience, minus Lillie. She did what she could but the service took way too long for what we ordered. Had I known it was going to be that long of a wait on food, we would have gone somewhere else. Husband and son liked the pizza. Soup was fine, very simple which is what I wanted. It will be a while before I return to dine in. I’d say that if/when kitchen staffing is insufficient and food takes that much longer to come out, let the customer know up front so that they can make an informed decision to stay or go somewhere else.

Since I moved to Concord, NC I have been on a mission of trying all of the local restaurants in the area. This place is a cozy pub with a nice outdoor patio. I got the small meat lovers with onions. They really piled on the topping which is good. I’m not sure what style of pizza it is but it is delicious. I am tired of NY and Detroit style so this pizza was refreshing to me. Everyone is friendly. This is a nice and cozy restaurant.

Our server was Miles (a very happy young man), which was the best part about our dinner here. He did suggest fried eggplant stripes with pizza sauce, and it was delicious. I highly recommend it. Anyway, we had gumbo pasta, which my partner quietly ate with a content look. I ordered the chicken calzone, and it was okie. We'll definitely be back. Very clean rr.

The pizza was good and was on special for Super Bowl Sunday. We enjoyed half and half special pizzas also. The environment was nice and adequate for us. No waits when we went at 3pm ... not a rush time by no means. The waitress was very knowledgeable, helpful and kept up with anything we needed. The price, like I said, was good. We will return when closer for sure.

This was our second trip to this pizza pub, and certainly won’t be our last. The fried mozzarella and signature red sauce were the perfect app. (Pro tip: add some garlic salt to the sauce) House Italian and Caesar salads were on point. Go for the extra dressing - so good. The meatball trio was amazing and loaded with melted cheese. BBQ pizza was good but their crust is so good that I would get a more Italian style pizza next time. Chicken was just okay to us. Little details matter…the tea was excellent. Not watered down like some places. This is also the second time that our server has been exceptional. She was personable, helpful and so quick! Would def recommend!

The food was delicious and the service was great. Madi was our server, and she did a fantastic job. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and she took care of us. I would ask for her the next time we go there to eat. They have a variety of options in their menu. Tge food came out really fast, and it was just as we had ordered it. Madi made sure everything was what we wanted and that we were enjoying it. The portions are very big and it's inexpensive to have a great meal here. I would recommend them to everyone.

I stopped there for lunch and sat outside. The waiter Connor was professional and had good timing on when he approached me for anything. He even gave me a water to go and was just very helpful. I enjoyed my lunch and the IPA was only $3.50. Pretty good for a drink when eating out. There were birds singing outside and flowers. It was very pleasant.

Anna was absolutely amazing! Her service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. The atmosphere at Afton Pub and Pizza in Concord is fantastic, with a great vibe that makes you want to stay and enjoy. Highly recommend both the place and Anna’s excellent service!

Excellent food, Italian mostly. The consistency of quality dining experience makes this my go to restaurant in Concord. The variety of dishes offered will satisfy, even if you're not sure what you want. You'll find it on this menu! Bar is beautiful and bartenders Sam and Olivia are skilled, friendly and organized. Afton Pub also has an outdoor patio that our Dog enjoys. Hope you like it as much as my family does!

We have been going to Afton for years, and we always enjoy our meals. This past Tuesday we decided to go for kids eat free. Apart from kids eat free they also have other specials like $4 drafts and $4 bombs. Any of the entrees come with a soup/salad and is good bang for your buck. We tried the pepper frites and even the kids loved them! My pizza was supposed to be gluten free crust but there was a mix-up and I got the regular... and I did not regret it. It was delicious! My husband enjoyed his calzone and the kids meals were yummy too. They also have a pizza cookie which is basically a cookie sundae. We love sitting on the patio. The view of the sunset from there is phenomenal! Service is always friendly. There is ample parking around here and an empty field for kids to run around while waiting for their food. The patio is also dog friendly!

We have eaten from Afton P&P for over a decade. I can say we have never had a bad experience. Today I ordered a 10' inch pizza and the crust was horrible. Felt as if I was eating pizza made from saltine crackers. When I called to ask if the recipe changed I was told it had not but the kitchen staff could make a difference. I was offered a remake but traveling back to pick up another order was not possible.

Myself and a group of friend's vsited Afton Pub & Pizza for lunch and we ordered a village calzone which was amazing! It came out of the kitchen piping hot oozing with cheese accompanied by a marinara, dipping sauce. Our waiter was very attentive as he refreshed our beverages, checked to see if we needed anything and cleared our empty plates. Oh yes, the restaurant was very clean and well maintained. I will be back.

This was our second trip to this pizza pub, and certainly won't be our last. The fried mozzarella and signature red sauce were the perfect app. (Pro tip: add some garlic salt to the sauce) House Italian and Caesar salads were on point. Go for the extra dressing - so good.

Little details matter...the tea was excellent. Not watered down like some places. This is also the second time that our server has been exceptional. She was personable, helpful and so quick! The patio was a perfect spot in the shade on a sunny April day. Would def recommend!

No Ground Beef for Pizza. Lasagna, and Gluten free pizza had no taste . Waited 1 hr to receive our food. Waitress did keep our drinks filled. Had to Initiate her to get our bills Atmosphere is nothing to brag about, just the same as any local tavern Our group of 6 will not be returning,

Do not eat at this place ever!!! Very disappointed with the restaurant today. As a community champion, HR Executive, and a Concord native born and reared here left for Undergrad and Masters degree. I can't believe what I just experienced. Do you not take your children here to eat after what I experienced a few minutes ago. Customer Service is poor, Bartender is unprofessional and tries to reprimand you in front of customers, and Mgt are not trained, unprofessional and lack awareness of how they speak to customers. I worked out at the YMCA and was only trying to get carryout for the family. I'll just take my business elsewhere and would encourage you too.

Neighborhood restaurant in Afton Village. It was fairly busy for an early dinner. The chicken Park sub was very good. The bread was so soft with a little crunch to it. If you aren't a big eater the halfsub is more than enough after pairing with 1side. Enjoy!

We love this place! The Italian nachos are amazing! Served on house made wonton chips topped with Italian meats, Alfredo sauce, cheese, peppers, olives... they're so good! We also love love love the Alfredo pizza! Only feedback I have is about the lighting, super dark in the left side dining room.

I have been a pretty loyal customer at AP&P for almost 2 years now since I moved to Concord. But, tonight, the night before school starts, I had to wait more than 70 minutes for a Pizza I called in and I kept hearing nothing but excuses. I was told 25-30 minutes when I called in at 6:15pm. And after sitting for over 45 minutes, once I got there, and while watching everyone else eat, and simply waiting for 1 pizza, I was offered garlic knots for my trouble. That's it. Garlic Knots. The manager acted like there's nothing she could do and, when I pointed out how long it took from the minute I called until I actually walked out. She said "I'm sorry that everybody in Concord wanted Half price Pizza tonight". I was constantly told that the girl who took my phone order should not have said 25-30 minutes. How is this my fault/problem? If I had known I would not have waited that long, I would not have ordered a Pizza and made other dinner arrangements. Also half the staff seemed more concerned about someone's birthday that I believe works on the staff there than taking care of the issues that were occurring. And then, after that, I got home and the pizza was very undercooked. We will never patronize you all again. I'm not one typically looking for concessions or complaining. But this is just unacceptable.

Worst dining experience. Took forever to get seated. Service was awful. Food was worse. Pizza was burnt and raw at the same time. Worse than school lunch pizza. They need Jon Toffer to save their garbage ass. If I could give negative stars I would. No stars

Gg was our server and she was absolutely amazing! Service was great and food was great. 10/10 would recommend.

Highlights: highly recommend the pizzas, good for small groups, good parking, friendly and quick service. Overall, I've had good experiences here. My first visit was during lunch. It was not too busy and we were able to park on the street right in front of the restaurant. Our waitress was friendly and gave a couple good recommendations. I had the BBQ pizza. It came out pretty quickly, was the perfect temperature and tasted great. Large Drink menu which played on one of the tv screens. They offer a mix of booths and tables. My second visit was at dinner time on a Friday night. The area is very busy and parking was little trickier. However, we found a spot still pretty close. I went with a group of 6 this time and we were still seated fairly quickly. This time I had the Chicken Alfredo pasta. It was fine but not amazing. Service was still very good and everyone's meal came out quickly. My mom had a specialty pizza and it was great (I was pretty jealous). It was especially dark inside which made it really hard to read the menu.

I ordered through DoorDash and I feel I was robbed. First off the 2calzones were actually raw and inedible! I called afton pub and spoke to the manager that told me oh I'm sorry , DoorDash has your money, call them for a refund... I called them and they said it's their new policy to refund anymore.. I called back and spoke with the same manager and she said well there's nothing I can do! I am now going through my bank to fight for the money that was stolen!

Pizza is great! Cajun Queen is awesome! Ryan's 4x4 is a staple in our house. Service is friendly and fantastic!

The food was excellent, and I would definitely recommend the BBQ Chicken pizza. The service was amazing from our server, Gigi, who was very thoughtful and kind, going above and beyond with service.

Terrible service, lukewarm food. Stood at the front desk for about 10 minutes while the poor girl who had to man the phones and hostess station took a very long call in order. Manager walked by multiple times and did not stop to check. Got seated and was served lukewarm fried mozzarella. Got our entrees and tried to enjoy our meals. Entrees were once again lukewarm. Then the manager decided to come over to the table next to us (wearing Bills jerseys) and had a very loud and long conversation about how they "cater to Bills fans", thinking about doing fish fries on Fridays, and getting the "Bills Mafia" to clear other fans out on sundays. Conversation was so loud and obnoxious that we couldn't hear each other. So I sincerely hope the Bills fans they cater to keep them in business after football season because I won't be back.

Delicious Italian food!!! Really great apps and drinks! A nice environment with friendly staff. I enjoy coming here and trying new things each time!!! They have lots of seating both inside and outside on the patio as well.

I go for the experience and not really for the food. It's a great little place to stop in at on my way home from work. The bartenders are great and are a lot of fun to be around. Tons of regulars visit. Mondays are 1/2 priced pizza Wednesday 1/2 priced wine bottles Saturday 1/2 priced pitchers Saturdays are fun because they do Music bingo in the bar area, but if you plan to go...then go early to grab a seat. My only advice to the bar is that it should be a standard rule that significant others shouldn't sit at the bar and become intoxicated. Bartenders are there to serve guests and not their spouses.

They have a great outdoor seating, which is great. Has Concorde is limited in restaurants that have that. We went on a Friday night and got seated right away outside and ordered three different pizzas. I got barbecue bacon chicken pizza, which was delicious and had big chunks of white meat, chicken, and lots of it. Another group got the 4 x 4, which is all meat which they said it was so good and the last group got some kind of chicken Alfredo which I had a piece and it was great. I've never had anything, but Pizza here, but I would highly recommend this restaurant

I frequent the pub and Forest always takes great care of us. He makes a mean Moscow mule, and the food has been amazing lately. Perfect atmosphere, totally unique, never been done!!

I used to be a frequent customer here and their pizza is awesome! We drove 30 minutes to specifically go here tonight & service was terrible . We ordered garlic knots that were so hard the knife couldn't go into them. Our waitress said, "Sorry this batch is hard," and returned to the kitchen. They seemingly forgot to put our order in, the same waitress lied and told us "it would be out in 5 minutes." Finally, another waitress came over and explained the kitchen was behind. 50 minutes later, we decided to leave. Disappointing for a restaurant I used to love

We got seated and the employees let us move the tables around to fit our party of 30 on the patio, they were quite nice. Around the time I asked for our drinks I asked for napkins for our table and I had to ask twice and didn't receive them until we were almost finished with our food. Their silverware was definitely not the cleanest and had spots and grease residue on the silverware. After eating our food at least 6 of our stomachs hurt very very badly, resulting in some sort of stomach virus.

Great large pizza special on Mondays. Everything has always been fresh and hot. I really like the staff and bar here as well! The dining space and patio are spacious. I love sitting outside when we get good weather. The area is really nice, great for dates or family time.

Went in tonight, super hungry and left super full and satisfied. We got the fried mozzarella as an appetizer and built our own pizza. Definitely going back soon! Our waiter was very attentive as well, I believe his name was Austin!

Excellent place to grab a pizza and sub. Nice casual atmosphere and huge patio area for warmer weather.

This is a great little pub/pizza place in afton village. The service is good and the staff is friendly. Mondays are a great day to visit if you like pizza as large pies are half off, and they are also very delicious! They do have daily drink specials with a decent selection of local beers, as well as liquor and wine. There's ample parking and plenty of other business around the area to visit. This is definitely a place worth checking out.

I love this place when I'm craving good pizza and a nice salad, and their ranch is to die for. I have nothing but great things to say about their food but the service YIKES! I have stared ordering take out from this place from how back the service is. DO NOT EAT HERE if you don't have an hour and a half to kill. The service is great up until you want your check! The last three times I've eaten here I had to flag down a different tables server to get my check. Once the waiters have gotten you your food they seem to up a vanish. 9/10 food 4/10 service

Two stars for the prompt & friendly service. I also liked the Moscow Mule & Pizza specials they offered. However, as for the Chicken Parm & Alfredo sauce, much was left to be desired. The chicken was over salted & over cooked. The Alfredo sauce was watery & bland. If I visit again it would be for the cocktail & calamari only.

Probably the worse place I've ever eaten. My pasta had no taste was very very undercooked the atmosphere was not very welcoming. The hostess told us it would be a 15 minute wait so she asked for our number but didn't even write down my whole number just the first three. We waited 45 minutes go by and we never got a call so we went back in and she said she tried calling. How can you call someone when you only wrote down the first three numbers? While me and my fiancé were eating the busser was sitting down right in front of us picking his nose and eating it. My fiancés food was barely edible. Will not be going back.

Our server was very friendly and awesome as were the other employees. My aunt and I enjoyed two personal pizzas and a Caesar salad. This croutons are amazing!! My pizza chosen was the spinach Alfredo and the one critique was the Alfredo sauce is on the thinner side so the cheese kind of over powered it but nothing an extra sauce on the side couldn't fix! So I recommend just asking for sauce on the sauce in addition to the pizza. Otherwise we enjoyed our meal and time here!

Keeps getting worse. 15 minutes after being seated and no one ever came to help us. This is the second time recently service has been poor.

A favorite of mine. I especially like the spinach salad and the Buffalo chicken calzone. Yummy!

obsessed with the pizza here, but if I had a magic lamp and a genie gave me three wishes I would wish for black olives to be added to the list of pizza topping options on the menu at afton pub and pizza in concord North Carolina. (you gotta be specific with genies) I'm just a girl who loves black olives.

Had a pizza to go. If this pizza is good enough to give to your customers, it's good enough to post on Yelp. It was completely burnt. I can't believe you gave this to a customer!

Good food, service is questionable. Ordered pizza, told 40 minutes. I got there in 25. Pizza came out cold as a brick.

If I could do a zero I would. We ordered thru DoorDash , after waiting 40 minutes the driver asked if the food showed up by another driver . I told him it had not. He said the restaurant was remaking the order and it would be a few minutes . After an hour the driver said they would not make the order . I called and spoke to the owner. She was rude and said I should take it up with DoorDash . I told her it was her restaurant I chose and her food I purchased . The bill was $70 ! She laughed and said "good luck taking it up with DoorDash " Can you imagine a restaurant owner laughing at a customer ? To be honest - they were a second choice bc their food is only so so . In times like this , when many restaurants are suffering , spend your money at a restaurant who appreciates your business

We were met at the door by a strong smell - kind of must or cleaning supplies? The stack of boxes sitting there was distracting. The food and service were both good, however the physical space has gone downhill and looks as if it needs a substantial refresh.

Not a fan of this place at all. The food is overpriced and does not taste good. I came with a group of 3 and we all got different pasta dishes. They were all DISGUSTING! We took a few bites and paid and left. Will definitely never come to Afton Pub & Pizza again.

I visited Afton on a Saturday night to check out the atmosphere I had heard about. I wasn't hungry so I sat in the bar area to enjoy some of the $4 house wine and March Madness. What a deal! I was quite content with the cabernet sauvignon that was available. They were playing Music Bingo thus the music was extra loud, in my opinion. I was successful at being civil by not putting in my ear plugs! However, with some good wine, I didn't mind after a while. The place was jammed packed with folks having fun and this gave me a warm, neighborly feeling, wishing I could find a place like this in my area. The Afton menu is varied and the eggplant fries that I saw were tempting. I will definitely visit Afton again.

We often pick up a pizza on a Monday when they offer 1/2 price large pizza. What a deal! Pizza consistency is a bit hit or miss but it's always good. Sometimes there are more toppings, other times less. Sometime the pizza has a slight crisp to the crust but most time not. So we usually just pop it in the oven once we get home to crisp up.

Stopped by for Chicken Marsala and egg plant fries - was told egg plant fries were off the menu. Please put them back! We drove up all the way from Winnsboro, SC especially for the fries!

Love me some Afton pizza! The wife and I dine in once a week. We always get the spinach Alfredo with pepperoni. Appetizers come out pretty quick. Freshly baked garlic knots come out within 5-7min! We love coming back here mainly for the consistency and great service. Keep up the great work!!

It took an hour and a half for an order to be prepared for pick up. No apologies, no reasoning, no nothing. 1.5 hours for two entrees to be ready for pick up. Insane. Quality of the food is fine but the way this place is ran is tragic.

Great go-to spot for a low-key, I don't feel like cooking kind of night. Reasonable prices, local beers on tap. Nothing extraordinary, but we always enjoy it. Nice to sit on the patio. We enjoyed having Tyler as our server most recently.

Richard Poku is the best bartender in town! drove 4 & 1/2 just to see him!! always a great way to end the night. best service ever!

My husband and I have eaten here probably 6 times now. It's our favorite local pizza place in Concord. Great service and nice patio. Only complaint is that the drinking glasses are small. Love the food and the atmosphere

I ordered a pepperoni pizza w extra cheese. I've never had a pizza w soo much cheese I couldn't eat it. Hell I've never had a pizza bad enough I couldn't eat it. For real there is damn near a half inch of cheese in the middle. Pizza is usually pretty good here but not tonight.

This is our go to spot when mom comes to visit! Great drink options and food! I'm not a fan of blue cheese, but the Cajun Queen Pizza is amazing!!!
