Exciting News for Charlotte: Sycamore Brewing Gears Up for New Family-Friendly Spot!
Charlotte, get ready for some exciting news as Sycamore Brewing announces plans to open a brand-new location in the coveted Cotswold Village Shopping Center by the summer of 2026! This expansion promises to be a delightful addition for families looking for a place to unwind and enjoy some quality time together.
A Spacious Venue to Enjoy
The new Sycamore Brewing hangout will be quite impressive with a massive 18,000 square feet of space. Out of that, a generous 7,000 square feet will be dedicated to indoor activities, while the outdoor 11,000-square-foot beer garden invites guests to soak up the sun or enjoy a cool evening breeze. Perfectly situated facing Randolph Road and right across from a popular Chick-fil-A, this location is all set to attract both local residents and visitors alike.
A Family-Oriented Vibe
In a delightful twist, this new Sycamore location isn’t just about beer—it’s all about families! The co-owner has shared that this venue is designed with families in mind. With a larger food menu and a dedicated kids menu, it looks like parents won’t have to compromise on their meal choices while keeping the little ones happy. Weekend brunches will also make an appearance, adding a sprinkle of weekend relaxation into the mix.
Fun and Entertainment
As if delicious food and drinks weren’t enough, this new place will also be a hub of activity with plans for live music and various community events. It’s the perfect recipe for creating memorable moments with family and friends over great tunes and tasty treats!
Brewing Tradition with a Modern Twist
Interestingly, while Sycamore Brewing is expanding its reach, it won’t be brewing beer on-site. Most of the brewing happens at their original location in north Charlotte, making this venture more about bringing their already beloved creations directly to residents of Cotswold. If you’re a fan of their popular Mountain Candy IPA, you’ll be pleased to know it won’t be going anywhere!
Charlotte’s Craft Beer Scene
Currently, there are over 40 breweries spreading joy across Charlotte, but none have made their mark in the Cotswold neighborhood. The nearest brewery is a bit of a trek, located at Vaulted Oak Brewing on Monroe Road. This new Sycamore location will fill that gap, offering a top-notch experience right in the heart of Cotswold.
Growing Since 2013
Sycamore Brewing has been a staple of Charlotte’s craft beer scene since its inception in 2013. Known as the largest brewery born in Charlotte and the leading independently owned craft brewery in North Carolina, they’ve certainly made a name for themselves. Their existing taproom in Charlotte’s South End and another at the Charlotte Douglas International Airport are already hitting the mark with locals and travelers alike.
Welcoming Space for All
This new venue is set to be a welcoming space that promotes relaxation, connection, and enjoyment. With the family-friendly focus and an expanded food offering, Sycamore Brewing is ready to invite everyone in for a good time. It won’t be long before local families and beer enthusiasts can gather in this vibrant new setting to create cherished memories together.
Keep an eye out as we approach the summer of 2026, because a new chapter in family entertainment and local craft beer enjoyment is about to unfold in Charlotte!
