Food scene
Bird Song is one of Charlotte's first breweries (quite a feat considering we now have over 40!) and the beer is fantastic! High Ground & Paradise City are our recommended IPAs and Rewind Lager is a fan favorite. Plus the brewery is solar powered and just over a mile from the Parson House!
