9 spots that have transformed Ayrsley from suburban development into a genuine community

If you haven’t already heard, Ayrsley is blowing up right now. Nestled in the middle of Steele Creek, this mixed use community is filled with places to eat, drink and play.

This fall, Ayrsley will welcome Bánh Mì and Tea Company to their diverse mix of dining establishments. The fast-casual restaurant will offer Vietnamese-inspired fare along with a variety of bubble teas. Their pork roll sandwiches will be a hot commodity. Stay tuned for more opening details.

Here’s your guide to all the other spots that are putting Ayrsley on the map:

Carolina Beer Temple

Address: 127 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite 101-B
The deal: This holy mecca of beer is a go-to spot. They’ve got 26 taps (mostly local brews) and over 300 bottles and cans. It’s a laid back vibe and they’ve got an A+ snack offering.

Rehab Nail and Beauté Bar

Address: 2088 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite-A
The deal: Tucked off the main street, this little nail bar is a gem. They’ve got a huge color offering and they even offer fancy drinks. Plus, the decor is on point.

Piedmont Social House

Address: 2135 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite-A
The deal: Charlotte’s original social house concept, PSH is the place to be on a Saturday night in Ayrsley. They offer multiple bars, two areas for bowling, ping pong and pool tables, arcade games and their menu is mouthwatering. Order a side of smoked mac-n-cheese.
Pro tip: You can take your beverages over to the event lawn next to Piedmont Social House for a round of corn hole or just to chill and it’s totally allowed.

Harry’s Grille & Tavern

Address: 2127 Ayrsley Town Blvd.
The deal: Looking for a nice glass of red and a juicy cut of filet mignon? Harry’s has you covered. They also serve a killer brunch on Saturday and Sunday. Two words: Endless. Mimosas.

The Corner Bar

Address: 2016 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite-A1
The deal: Don’t let The Corner Bar fool you. It’s not all about the drinks. Their small plate menu is a thing to be reckoned with. I recommend the Pepperjack Grit Cakes and Caramelized Brussel Sprouts.

Title Boxing Club

Address: 2016 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite-E
The deal: The perfect way to break out of your normal workout routine. You can try a class for free and they welcome all fitness levels. The facilities are legit too.

Rooney’s Market

Address: 2127 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite 101-A
The deal: Grab a breakfast sandwich in the morning or enjoy a glass of wine in the afternoon. Rooney’s Market will quickly become a weekend staple.
Pro tip: Make sure you check out their brand new evening menu (served from 4pm-10pm). Snack on tapas style dishes like Whipped Feta & Roasted Red Pepper Crostini, Lamb Meatballs or Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Dates.

Ayrsley Grand Cinemas

Address: 9110 Kings Parade Blvd.
The deal: Who doesn’t love a good movie and extra large tub of popcorn on a Friday night? Ayrsley Grand Cinemas is legit. Comfortable seats, great movies selection and all the snacks you love. Milk duds anyone?

Vital Yoga Studio

Address: 2025 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite 1101
The deal: For those trying to get their namaste on, Vital Yoga Studio is the place. They offer a wide variety of class styles (even one in Spanish). Right now they are offering 30 days of unlimited yoga for $30. A steal.

Warning: you may like Ayrsley so much that you don’t want to leave.

Luckily, you don’t have to. You can actually live in Ayrsley.

They’ve got a variety of living options (which are all insanely nice). Check out floor plans and availability here.

In the meantime, get a babysitter, call an Uber and get to Ayrsley this weekend.
