Looking for a new beer bar to check out? Look no further than this new arrival. Taking over the old garage at 226 Fairwood Ave. in South End, the fresh addition is called The Fairwood 226.

In addition to a wide selection of craft and domestic beers, The Fairwood 226 boasts a full bar and a kitchen that's open late. Try elevated pub grub faves like the smoked wings, the barbecue pork flatbread, the soft pretzel with beer cheese, and the mac and cheese topped with barbacoa beef. The renovated 3,000-square-foot space also features a large outdoor patio and rooftop seating.

With a 4.5-star rating out of three reviews on Yelp so far, The Fairwood 226 has already made a good impression.

Yelper Jay P., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on May 31, wrote, "I just grabbed drinks and a warm pretzel today, but both were great. The staff was really friendly, and I like the screens that are set up to order food. I'm excited to stop back in and hopefully make this spot my new watering hole."

Yelper Kimberly M. added, “The flatbread has the freshest sauce I've tasted in all of Charlotte. The second review I've ever posted, just for this sauce. Excellent addition to South End."

Interested? Stop by to welcome the new business to the neighborhood. The Fairwood 226 is open from 11 a.m.–1 a.m. on Sunday through Tuesday and 11 a.m.–2 a.m. on Wednesday through Saturday.
