So glad my friends in the CLT area live close to this spot. Perfect place to pick up a nice bottle of beer or wine, and they also have good local treats and snacks. I picked up a bottle of bubbly and couldn't resist a local made Kitchen Sink cookie. My friends picked up a couple six packs of local beers. Price wise, good value for money and the service is good too- no rush, but engaging with questions and recommendations if that's what you're looking for!

What a treat! We were asked if it was our first time in and it was so we were offered a tour. What an incredible selection!!! I expect this will be my new go to spot. Purchased a six pack of assorted local beers, a unique bottle of Malbec, seltzers, and a bag of tip top coffee! Snack + food selection looked awesome and it had the perfect local market vibe.

A wonderful neighborhood market combined with a record store. They have a handful of frozen and fresh foods for immediate consumption. They also have chilled and shelf beer and wine. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I really appreciate the vibe of the place and the fact that they stand for equality and protecting human rights of all of our community members. During non Covid times, they have a bar you can sit at to have a pint or a glass of wine. I look forward to those days again so I can spend more time in this lovely place.

Cool neighborhood bottle shop. Huge selection of local beer, and even some locally roasted coffee. They also have some beer on tap to enjoy on site, and have a back patio spot perfect for a summer eve of chilling.

I'm trying to make it more of a habit that whenever I'm in new cities I check out more record stores for the simple fact the depending the region of the country you're in the music tastes obviously is different. And even when they're the same you still may stumble upon some gems you could never find back home. A quick google search lead me to Tip Top Market. Located inside they have an amazing craft beer selection in their bodega portion of the market. Then you can also find a small bookstore tucked in the back corner of the building. And then finally there's the grand attraction we came for, the record store, Premium Sounds. Went in with no expectations but boy did they have a great collection. Littered with some gems that I'm not even sure they comprehended what they had in hand. I walked away with over 8 records, along with some I never knew even existed. If you're ever in the mood to have a great beer, buy and book and a record for nice evening in, stop by Tip Top Market. You will not be disappointed.

I really like coming to this place and getting my favorite beers to go, or discovering new treasures and enjoying them there. I have been to this place several times and it has been very busy sometimes and quiet others, depending on the day and time. The service is hit or miss. There have been really friendly people behind the counter and ones that have been a little antisocial. Never a bad experience though. They have a lot of unique little snacks. I like to browse through and see what I can find!

This is a huge asset to the neighborhood. Great beer selection, ample seating outside, and the ability to enjoy your purchase on site, or walk home to enjoy at a later time.

A perfectly placed little market in between NoDa and Plaza Midwood. Also conveniently right beside my favorite bar in Charlotte outside of breweries! This shop has everything you need for lunch or even a nice evening keeping it low key. They have different types of food (pre packaged and the likes) and lots of craft beer to choose from. Also you can pick up your standard domestics (mostly) here too. All prices are typical market prices but check their specials! Don't be afraid to even treat this as as normal bar as well because a solid selection of beer on tap and excellent wine to choose from too. Service is phenomenal. They do a great job of making you feel at home even if you are from another part of town or even out of state. Don't pass this small shop up!
