The Daily: Charlotte’s Fourth Ward Pub That Will Make You Cheat on Your Diet (and Your Regular Bar) 🍹
From epic Guinness pours 🍺 to crave-worthy burgers 🍔, The Daily in Charlotte’s Fourth Ward delivers bold bites and killer cocktails 🍸. Is it worth the hype? Find out now 👀.
The Daily: A Fourth Ward Favorite for Food, Drinks & Community
Tucked into the charming streets of Charlotte’s historic Fourth Ward, The Daily Tavern is more than just a bar—it’s a hub for great eats, perfect pours, and neighborhood vibes. Owned by Fourth Ward resident Tommy Timmins, The Daily has quickly carved out its place as a must-visit destination for locals and visitors alike. With a menu loaded with flavor, one of the best Guinness pours in the city, and an atmosphere that feels like home, it’s no wonder people keep coming back. 🍺
Craft Cocktails & Unbeatable Guinness
The Daily’s drink menu strikes a perfect balance between classic and creative. Sure, you’ll find stalwarts like the Old Fashioned and Margarita, but don’t sleep on their signature concoctions like the Picante Margarita, which brings just the right amount of heat, or the Jameson Espresso Martini, perfect for those who want their buzz caffeinated.
Beer lovers, rejoice! While the craft beers on tap are worth exploring, it’s the Guinness that truly steals the show here. With a pour so creamy and smooth, it could give Dublin pubs a run for their money. 🍀
Start your meal with something from the Shares menu. Whether it’s the crispy Fried Pickles with ranch or the indulgent Nacho Fries smothered in queso, bacon, and pico (pro tip: add steak for extra decadence), there’s something for everyone. Want something a little more elevated? The Meat & Cheese Board is a $17 splurge that’s worth it for date night or catching up with friends.
The Mains menu offers variety without sacrificing quality:
Daily Burger: Double smash wagyu, American cheese, house sauce, lettuce, and all the fixings, served with addictive waffle fries.
Roasted Chicken Club: Herb-roasted chicken, brie, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and mayo on a garlic baguette—comfort food perfection.
Black Bean Burger: A house-made vegetarian option so flavorful, even meat lovers will give it a thumbs up.
Steak & Fries: Marinated skirt steak with garlic butter and crispy fries, for when you want something hearty.
Taco fans, you’re covered too, with options like the zesty Chicken Tacos with poblano cream, the fresh Salmon Tacos with dill crema, or the bold Steak Tacos with chimichurri.
And don’t forget the Parmesan Grit Cake—a fan-favorite side that’s as rich as it is satisfying.
Save Room for Dessert
If you’ve still got space, dessert is mandatory. The Brownie & Ice Cream, topped with mint chocolate chip and drizzled in dark chocolate sauce, is pure indulgence. For a lighter option, the silky, caramelized Creme Brulee is a can’t-miss classic.
