Bulldog Dilworth

Hanging out here is akin to having a few (really good) beers with buddies in your living room! A comfortable, laid-back environment AND an amazing beer selection to boot? Twist my arm. I'm in!They always have 10-ish beers on draft. Most recently, I enjoyed NoDa's Cranberry Cold Crash, a not-so-easy-to-find, local beer. It was delish! They also have coolers and shelves full of beer and wine. There's no way you're not finding something you'll enjoy drinking here. They literally have something for everyone!I love grabbing a seat at their bar in the back. I love grabbing a couch in the front. No matter where you plop, you can't go wrong at Bulldog. Dog friendly because they don't serve food. I imagine the new Dominoes Pizza that just opened across the parking lot is going to be pretty popular with the Bulldog crowd.

I would consider this to be more of a bar than a bottle shop. It's a great neighborhood bar with a really great draft selection. Think Founder's CBS and Foothill's Sexual Chocolate on draft at the same time. The beer selection to go is limited, but still a good selection. They carry the local Charlotte breweries along with Terrapin and Wicked Weed. However don't expect to see Burial, Wilmington or Boojum. The wine selection is small but really good. Willamette Valley Pinots are among them. They have a few chilled white wines and sparkling, but not a lot. I didn't see a rosé in the fridge, but it's also not rosé season at the moment. They don't have meal quantity food, but they do have popcorn. They will also allow you to bring in your own food. They've recently revamped, from what I've heard. They now carry liquor and are supposed to be coming out with a drink list soon.I'd recommend this place for a neighborhood bar with a really great draft list.

Love this place! Just a hidden gem. Great local beers, and welcoming staff! Erma is my favorite bar tender on Friday nights!!! Place is always filled with regulars and positive happy vibes! They even stayed open with the power out! Bulldog doesn't hesitate to take the best care of their guests!

Goodness gracious. All of these awesome bottle shops (or, shoppes) keep opening in town and all of them have a unique aesthetic, appeal, and selection. Enter: Bulldog Beer & Wine. Dilworth and Charlotte's latest addition to the beer enthusiasts and those seeking a bottle of wine. Made it in this past weekend and I couldn't be more thrilled to see this Boone transplant stake it's claim in Crown Town. Parking is a little sparse -- juxtaposed with that of a dry cleaner and cozied up next to the shell parking lot, it's a tight squeeze when it comes to parking. Don't let it stop you, however. It's a low-lit shop with coolers chock a block filled with bottles of all kinds. Bombers on the counter, chilled wine in and others on the racks next door, bar seating with 6 brews on draught, comfy couches/chairs....and Winston, the bulldog. He's the shop's mascot, so to speak and belongs to owner, Rob. There are plans to make this place super dog-friendly. For those of us hoping to adopt a pooch friend, or those who care for a canine companion, this place will be a haven for bitches (boy dogs, too) and brews...quite literally.This could be the final motivator to finally introduce a dog into our family. Within walking distance to home, close to East Blvd and Freedom Park, I can see many a picnic happening and starting here at Bulldog. We were happy to pick up a 6-pack of Lagunitas "Sucks" and Rob sold us two bottles of Hopslam. Winning. Great finds, as both brews have been great this year. Looking forward to coming back and having a pint (or seven) at the bar and saying hello to Winston again! Here, here, Bulldog!

This place is right in my fun zone! Close to The Wine Shop, Total Wine and More and Uptown (also known as Downtown, if you're a native Charlottean...)...Let me just say this: they have puppies! Okay, I know, the namesake Winston is not a puppy... He's old enough to be a full grown dog, but I'm still calling him puppy... Later in the summer, the patio will be finished and you can bring your own puppies, as well... Sounds like fun to me... The beers I've had from their tap were great... Off the top of my head, I can remember the Allagash and a Porter... I think the Porter was my favorite, it is incredibly smooth... There are also coolers and coolers of beers that line the wall and they will serve you any of those as well...The owner and the bartender (Rob and Ben) are both super cool and they make for good company as you enjoy the numerous options... I've been in two weekends in a row and met some soon to be deemed regulars that were very amiable as well...Right now, parking isn't much of an issue, but I suggest when it gets warmer and this place comes into its own that you get there early... I know I will... :)

I am so glad this place started serving liquor. It's supposed to be a membership only club now but at the door I didn't even have to pay the dollar to get the membership card. It's such a fun place to go with friends or coworkers either extremely casually or for a real night out. Bartenders are always friendly and up for a good conversation, and I love a good game of darts

Great place to hang out, grab a drink, grab another drink, make a new friend, refill your drink, have a chill afternoon/evening, and then take buy a pack to take home!

Great place that is easy to overlook... I've pretty much stopped in for a few bottles of wine and beer here, but this is a great hang out spot to if you want to drink and relax after work. I think the greatest thing is that every time I have been in here, the owner's dog Buster greets me and helps me choose what I will be drinking that evening. The owners are super nice and make an effort to get to know you as a customer... also make really great recommendations!The coolers of beer are organized by type and the rack of wine is organized as well (whites are in the refrigerated area). Have not spent much time in the bar area (towards the back of the place) but it looks like a decent place to share a beer or five with friends or just to relax and wind down after a hectic day.Parking entrance can be a little tight (Dilworth/Park Rd) so just be mindful whipping into the parking lot and avoiding other cars.

Fun and funky bottle shop and draft house. It a little unassuming storefront, but once you enter the door it appears bigger. The owner /operator is a great guys nice down to earth guy. Also, the bull dogs that can be found running around are super awesome and friendly. You can buy beer to go or drink it there. There are Some Tvs and board games to play.In the back, they have bunch of taps and the offerings change pretty frequently. It's nice place to check out and get a beer. Also, next year I hear rumors that they maybe offering growlers and fill ups.

Stumbled upon this place on our way through the area. This is a great little bar, nothing fancy, but the friendly service, great beers and chill atmosphere makes us want to go back again soon.
