Substrate in Charlotte is shaking up what it means to be a wine bar—think disco ball, vintage lamps, and a vibe that feels more like your coolest friend’s living room than a stuffy tasting room. Named North Carolina’s best wine bar just months after opening, Substrate welcomes everyone, whether you’re a wine nerd or just want a chill night out. Bring your own food, spin your favorite vinyl on Thursdays, and catch live jazz-funk on Fridays. This spot is all about making great wine accessible and fun. Who’s been? What’s your favorite night to go? #Food #CharlotteNC #WineBar
