Brewery and restaurant with skyline views opening soon

Emma Way, Charlotte Agenda

A new brewery called Midnight Mulligan will open this Septemeber in Wesley Heights.

The big picture: The once-industrial strip of Thrift Road is now a booming food and drink district with the East Coast’s first spiked seltzer brewery, a dog bar, a popular high-end restaurant, a ghost kitchen collective, and now a new brewery and restaurant.

• Also on the street: Wray Ward’s hip new office with over 100 employees. Noble Smoke is just around the bend, and Lulu’s Maryland-Style Chicken and Seafood is there, too.

What to expect: The 10,000-square-foot brewery and restaurant will have an expansive 3,000-square-foot patio with skyline views and string lights. The taproom will connect directly to next-door neighbor Summit Seltzer so you can bring your seltzer into Midnight Mulligan and vice versa with your beer.

• The best seat in the house is in front of the fireplace in Midnight Mulligan’s private event space, which also has direct access to the patio (and views).

Yes, but: Another brewery?! We knew you were thinking it. Head brewer Jeff Bowman knows it too. “We’re different,” he tells me. “We’re going to be a modern brewpub.”

Location: Midnight Mulligan’s exact address is 2215 Thrift Rd., Unit A.
