We’re taking over the entire Southside space on Montford. It’s massive. Young people know this as the go-to late night spot in Charlotte (made our list of top 5 spots for dance floor make outs). Old people know this as the old Andrew Blair’s where you met your wife back when you could hang out later than 10 p.m.
