I found myself in Pineville recently having dinner, and after our dinner while walking along the streets of the charming downtown, we stumbled across Kits. It looked cozy and inviting and we were fancying a night cap, so in we went. As their name implies they are located by the train tracks and specialize in craft beer as both a bottle shop and a tap room. They have a large number of rotating taps with a variety of different beers. Inside they have a number of games along with couches and a variety of comfy seating. We pulled up a stool at the bar which was also pretty full. It definitely feels like a regular neighborhood hangout. The servers had a lot of great recommendations from their tap list and clearly enjoy what they do. It is definitely first and foremost dedicated to craft beer so if it isn't your thing it may not be your favorite place. Me myself I enjoyed my time and if I lived in the area I would likely stop in regularly. If you find yourself in the area I recommend stopping in to check out their draft list. Even if you don't find your favorite beer you'll have friendly service and some nice people watching.

I met up with a colleague this evening and it was a "work" meeting despite the fact that we each enjoyed a frosty beverage or two.Kit's is doing a great job with their COVID protocols. Masks are required. Tables are sanitized. Social distancing is required.We each enjoyed our beers and their wifi while we talked about the upcoming project that we've been assigned. Kit's is a friendly spot and they have a long list of beers on tap. When the weather warms up, this will be a great place to sit outside.[Review 14765 overall, 266 of 2021, number 2816 in North Carolina.]

Kit and the crew were very welcoming to this first timer, as they made me feel like family from the moment I walked in the door and I definitely got a "Cheers" type vibe from the place as there was a diverse cast of characters around the bar and everyone made me feel right at home even though I was a newcomer. The staff was also very knowledgeable about beer and conveyed their knowledge with passion and enthusiasm, as each person behind the bar had the heart of a teacher and came across like they truly loved their job and getting the opportunity to share their love of beer with others. I asked our "beertista" (is that a word, if not, I am claiming rights to it now!) to set us up with a flight of varied beers so that we could get a feel for what we liked, and she walked hand in hand with us on the journey explaining each beer without being condescending or judgmental at our lack of knowledge, which was awesome, because boy do we have a lack of knowledge! This was important though, because far too often, some brewery employees come across as as pretentious and seem to look down on you if you don't know the top 5 differences between a stout and a lager or whatever, or actually look down on you period if you dare mention the lager word haha. Not here though, as they were all about helping us find what we liked, not try to convince us why we should like a certain thing. That to me is what made me feel so comfortable, because I truly felt like they enjoyed helping us discover something new while also helping us discover our "unique taste profile", so that we could find what we truly enjoyed.Kit's doesn't just set the bar, but it is the bar (see what I did there!) when it comes to craft beer places, as today's environment seems to put an emphasis on quantity and name recognition over quality and education, but Kit's simply focuses on being a friendly, welcoming place where you can learn about and enjoy a good beer with friends both new and old, all while being treated like family, and at the end of the day, isn't that what we all want....a place we can call home.

If you're looking for beer. This is the place to go. Anywhere we've been has not had the selection they have here. It's a fun little location. With a lot of stuff. Grab a pizza. Come on in. Get some beers. Enjoy the patio. Or set at the bar or one of the tables inside. Also, if you're not sure what kind of beer you want. They will be more than happy to help find a selection for your taste.

Only been here twice but will be going more now. What a gem, not really hidden as it's on old Pineville's main drag. Everyone is super knowledgeable and helpful but not in an overbearing "I know more than you" way. The selection rivals anything in the CLT area. It's probably better than Carolina Beer Temple tbh. Very close to Salud. Can't recommend enough. Stopped in for a pint and a couple 4 packs to go of Hopfly.

Excellent bottle shop even closer to Columbia, SC if you don't want to go to Charlotte for those hard to find items. Magnificent selection of can beers in the cooler to drink on site or to take home. Snacks available while you drink , nice people work here !

VERY impressed with the bartender dealing with a difficult patron. The customer took their drink outside on the patio and half-way through, it attracted a fly. The customer requested it be replaced with a can of the same. He refused a half-hour from the tap. The bartender refused because this is ot only not an appropriate remedy, it's not legal. Good for the staff for standing their ground respectfully and protecting the business!Edit* that should read "half-pour"
