North Carolina

Pick a city to see bars, breweries, and nightlife nearby.

North Carolina has one of the largest and most varied bar scenes in the Southeast, and BarFinder currently lists 5,491 venues statewide, led by classic bars and sports bars with a substantial brewery and cocktail bar presence. Asheville anchors much of the state's reputation, packing more than 15 craft breweries into a walkable downtown grid and claiming more breweries per capita than almost anywhere else in the country, a scene that traces back to Green Man Brewery's opening in 1997. Beneath that modern brewery boom is real history, too - Prohibition-era moonshine distribution once ran out of basements in downtown Asheville buildings. From mountain brewery crawls to coastal and Piedmont nightlife, North Carolina's bar scene covers a lot of ground.
