An American gastropub serving comfort food classics and “killer cocktails” is expanding in Charlotte.
Culinary Dropout has plans to open a second location at the Bowl at Ballantyne, according to a permit request viewed by CharlotteFive, although the timeline for the move is unclear.
The new spot, slated for 15220 Bowl Street, will occupy an existing two-story building in the dining and entertainment district. Work on the project includes a new commercial kitchen, restrooms, finishings and furniture, along with structural, plumbing and mechanical upgrades, documents show.
“There is an indoor/outdoor bar and patio on the second level,” the permit reads. “There is also an exterior patio on the first floor.”
CharlotteFive reached out to Culinary Dropout for more information Monday, Feb. 2 and was awaiting a response.
The Arizona-based chain has more than a dozen locations in nine states, including its only North Carolina spot in South End that opened in 2023. It’s part of Fox Restaurant Concepts, helmed by James Beard-nominated chef Sam Fox.
South End “has become a hotspot for young people, families and professionals, making it a prime location for Culinary Dropout,” Fox told CharlotteFive at the time. “Whether you’re enjoying a family dinner, grabbing a drink after work, hanging out before a Panthers game or just out for a fun night with friends, this restaurant is a special place that is all things to all people.”
On the menu, foodies will find classic pub bites from soft pretzels and barbecue pork belly nachos to fried chicken and hot wings. Salads, pizza, sandwiches and other “comfort food classics” are also available.
Customers can choose from 17 handcrafted cocktails, or sip on their favorite beer or wine.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
