Michael Waltrip Taproom

Went with friends to spend the day at Concord Mills to do a little shopping. We decided to try out MW's Taproom since the mall closed at 6pm. The restaurant was a ghost town on a Sunday evening. Maybe everyone is still eating Thanksgiving leftovers?Since there were 3 of us, we opted for an order of 3 tenders, 3 sliders, and 3 fry flavors. It was definitely enough for us to all share. The tenders were nice and crispy and the sweet chili sauce was good. I picked the Green Flag slider with bacon and pickles, very tasty. The little burger was cooked perfectly. For the fries we went with beer cheese and bacon, MW dusted, and Cajun. The Cajun were the best of the 3. The MW dust is a little on the sweet side which I didn't mind because I was dipping mine in the leftover sweet chili sauce. I was hoping to be able to pick tots as one of the 3 options but it was fries or tots, no mixing. I was also a little disappointed that the entrees options did not come with any sides. Since they were dead, the hostess was also our server. She was sweet. She answered all of our questions with ease. She didn't check back as much as I would have preferred for refills and the check but it wasn't a terrible wait. I think I was just ready to hit the road for the long ride home. They have a serious number of TVs for a sports bar so I'm sure if you are a football fan, you'll be able to watch your game, or better yet, a NASCAR race once the season starts back in February. Overall, decent bar food with plenty of TVs for sports spectators.

Great location.Nice atmosphere .Good Food and Drink selections.With games andPool tables

I was pleasantly surprised, this exceeded my expectations based on visits to similarly marketed race car driver owned restaurants nearby.We went on a Tuesday evening when they have $2 off their Michael Waltrip beer and a kids eat free promotion. Everything was very clean. The servers were appropriately dressed (other driver owned restaurants may lack this) and helpful. They have good beer on tap that I believe is brewed there. My husband loved his burger. My sauced tenders were good. I liked the bacon cheese fries and the dusted fries. Know that sides are extra with the exception of kids meals.We will be back.

I have a love hate relationship with this place... no it's not the taphouse but it a new change and change is hard. The food is good drinks are a little pricey but Thursday is a great day 10 buckets. The wait staff is great.

Stopped in here after passing by to just check it out. Has a full bar and decent tap list. Food was good bar food style. Service was great even with the place being packed for the football game. The ambiance is sports bar type feel. Worth a try for sure.

What an awesome spot! I stopped by here for lunch on a Thursday afternoon and it was pretty quiet. The staff greeted me immediately and I was so lucky to have the pleasure of being helped by Jane. I felt right at home here and the service was beyond what I would expect from a taproom in the middle of a quiet day. Jane took such amazing care of me - making sure I was enjoying my experience the entire time. The food is fantastic too. I had the Cobb salad which was enormous and I had to take most of it home. The menu is not overwhelming and I can't wait to go back and try some other items. GREAT BEER SELECTION OF LOCAL BREWS! The crowds started to come in around rush hour time and I definitely imagine this is a hoppin' spot in the evenings and weekends. Loved the vibe overall including the pool tables, numerous TVs (which have sound on for the game) and the large open space where you can bring a big group. They have outdoor seating as well. Highly recommend stopping by here to watch a game and enjoy the hospitality. Thank you to Jane for giving me such an awesome first impression of this spot - I'll be back very soon!!

Beers are cold and the food is great! The pretzel bites are ridiculously delicious, They come with three dipping sauces I got two of the beer cheese and a pimiento cheese. I also had the chicken pesto flatbread which was also very good. The highlight of the night Michael came in and thanked and greeted everyone that was there. It was an ounce in a lifetime event. I was saying to him that my wife was going freak out and he suggested taking a pic. Micheal is as genuine as you see on Nascar and the different documentaries he has done. His beer line is very diverse and I definitely would recommend. My choices of the night were his IPA line and his sour, it is like a dessert.

Came here before tackling great wolf lodge, and was pleasantly surprised! The beer was good - a decent craft beer, and a huge selection of Waltrip and local. It's also a good addition to the area, as I don't think there are many breweries up here. I liked the coconut IPA and my husband liked his Mexican lager! The food here was also surprisingly good! The burgers were perfectly cooked, flavorful and juicy. I would order a burger here again and again. My husband felt the same way about his BYO burger. My kids also enjoyed their kids meals, which is a win! Another fun thing is they do "eat dessert first" - the manager did come out and ask if it was ok - and then brought out a fried Oreo for each of the kids (it was delish)! The place itself is very open, lots of tables. It also has a game area and pool tables. There's something for everyone here.Next time we are in Concord, we will certainly stop in again!

Amazing place! First off, Michael was there hanging out, socializing and taking pictures, SUPER friendly and fun! Food was good, seltzer was delicious, fun atmosphere! Our waitress at the bar Zen was super friendly, fun and recommended some of the delicious food we ordered! She provided great service! Highly recommend coming here to hangout, eat and drink! They even have darts and pool tables!

We came on a Saturday night. The place was not busy and we were seated pretty quickly. Our waitress was nice, but didn't seem to remember us very often. When we got our food, it was barely warm, but it was tasty. But when I had to go get my own water refill from the bar because the waitress barely checked on us, I was over it.
