The Vibe
You should definitely check out Loblolly Cellars when you're in town; it's a solid five-star experience, and a local favorite for good reason. Tucked away on the near West Side, it offers a surprisingly spacious, yet cozy, industrial-chic atmosphere perfect for an afternoon with friends or a relaxed evening. Their constantly rotating taps feature an impressive range of meticulously crafted beers, with their hazy IPAs and robust stouts being particular standouts. While they don't serve food, they often have food trucks parked outside, and you're welcome to bring your own snacks. Parking can be a bit tight on weekend evenings, so consider an Uber or arriving earlier to snag a spot. It's a great spot for groups, but also comfortable for a solo visit, and the friendly staff are always happy to guide you through their latest brews.
