If you find yourself wandering through the vibrant streets of Charlotte, there’s a new spot that’s bound to catch your eye and lift your spirits! Welcome to Gallery House, an innovative blend of art gallery and bar that officially opened its doors at the end of September. The friendly atmosphere and cozy interiors make it an ideal place to grab a drink, meet up with friends, or even hunker down with your laptop – all while being greeted by the adorable house dog, Luna, at the door.
Located at 231 N Tryon St, Gallery House is more than just a venue; it’s a lively community hub where connections thrive. Owner Jess Gillman has created an inviting environment where patrons can engage in conversation, appreciate art, and even take a piece home with them. “At some places, people come in and stay to themselves — and that’s not what goes on here,” Gillman explained. “I wanted to build a community where people come in and talk to one another. That’s how you find connections.”
Whether you’re popping in for a leisurely afternoon coffee or winding down with a cocktail after work, you’ll be enveloped in a backdrop of charming old movies and TV shows. The eclectic decor, featuring bright blue walls adorned with artwork from talented local and national artists, ensures there’s always something intriguing to discuss. You might even get lucky and have one of the artists drop by to share insights about their work!
The menu reflects the artistic vibe with drinks that have creative names such as The Smithsonian, Dirty Diva, Canvas Cooler, and Soso Soda. And let’s not forget about the $10 martinis offered every day! While you soak in the atmosphere and enjoy your drink, take a moment to cozy up on the burnt orange couch or a comfy chair, and, of course, give Luna some love!
Even though food isn’t currently on the menu, Gillman is excited to announce plans to collaborate with a ghost kitchen to provide rotating culinary delights. “Culinary is a form of art, too,” she remarked, emphasizing her commitment to celebrating creativity in all forms.
Gallery House is open from 12 p.m. to 12 a.m. Tuesday through Sunday, making it the perfect spot for an afternoon pick-me-up or a late-night gathering with friends. Whether you’re looking for a quiet place to work during the day or a lively atmosphere to unwind in the evening, you’ll find your groove at this unique establishment.
With an emphasis on community, creativity, and connection, Gallery House truly seems to be a gem in uptown Charlotte. “It’s a welcoming place for all — that’s the best way to put it,” Gillman concluded. So why not stop by, say hi to Luna, and see for yourself what all the buzz is about? You might leave with a new friend and a stunning piece of art to grace your walls.
When in Charlotte, don’t miss the chance to experience Gallery House. It’s a place that invites you to relax, open up, and discover the magic of art and community — all in one vibrant location!
