Icehouse

I stopped in here to catch the pre season football game. I requested to sit outside the weather was perfect. My waitress was ok. I ordered my food and drink. Midway through eating I noticed an army of ants coming up the wall where I was seated. I was mortified. Then I looked over & a dog jumps up to bite a lady coming from the rest room. Horrible!!! The manager came over and apologized, took half off the bill. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Looks like it’s closed, I can understand why. This place is awful.

Waitstaff wasn’t impressive. Food was okay, decent prices. Really neat building though, very spacious.

First time to IceHouse and we loved it! Brought my nephew and pup, and we had a great experience on the patio. Between the outstanding service from the start (our server brought water out for the dog without having to ask) to the delicious ribs, Mac and cheese, and tomato and basil bisque… we will definitely be coming back in the future!

If you like bad food and mediocre service this place is a must!!! Ordered the blackened shrimp pasta Alfredo… Ask upon being served if the shrimp were blackened and was told by two different servers that that is the way they do it here. Took some pictures for your entertainment.

My first review after returning to the States. Not much for foodies here. Typical Sysco menu. Very good craft beer list though. Disinterested server.
This is a good place for casual gatherings, quaffing some cold ones with only moderate expectations from the kitchen. Hey, it’s a «bar and grill».

I love Icehouse!!! I have been the MANY times, the food has NEVER let me down. I take all my customers to lunch /​dinner there and they always enjoy the food as well. Our Service is fantastic every visit and the manager always comes by to check on us too!
A few weeks back I planned a huge going away party for my man who is in the USMC. I tried a few other places uptown (so no drinking and driving) and prices were out the roof to rent a room for a Military party even. Because I have had such great service there at Icehouse I called them up.
Icehouse went ABOVE AND BEYOND for me. Not only did they give me an amazing deal to rent out the top level… I had a private bartender, and waitress. They created 3(three) drink specials for the party (they have to run these specials all day so it costs them money) and because they do not have steaks, they went out and bought his favorite cut and made it for him! I mean seriously what place does that! They even got it the day before, marinated it over night– and had is favorite sides. They even suggested getting him the steak, i never even thought to ask.
I got there early to set up and they took all the stuff I brought, told me to tell them what I wanted. and They set it all up for me too! I even brought a cake in that they stored for me.
They also let all of us leave our cars overnight, and saved my leftovers and all decorations until I could come pick them up the next day.
Icehouse has never let me down. I highly suggest this place for any events/​dinners/​parties! if you go there one on one, just meet the staff and be social, they’re great!

11pm Friday no food and wouldn’t honor my living social coupon. Told me bar was closing soon too.

Rick the manager was very accommodating for us. Put on the Chicago Blackhawks game we wanted to see. We asked for closed captioning but he outdid that by putting on the sound! Our waitress, was very attentive plus actually showed interest in what we were cheering for. The range of draft beers available was broad. The banana bread pudding was especially delicious. Would highly recommend this sports bar!

This place is crap. Bartender completely unavail and then when she does pay attention completely raucous and obnoxious. Where am I? I’ve been here 3 times — gave it the benefit of the doubt and everytime bad service by all.

Just a nice bar, grilled wings are awesome! Kitchen close at 10 PM on weekends so hurry. Drinks are good price is reasonable. Oh had a side salad and fries nothing special about these at all. But again grilled buffalo wings that are not fried, yep the best may need to ask for extra sauce can’t really taste it.

The name is misleading. I was expecting a house made out of ice. Upon arriving I was disappointed to see just a regular bar. I thought I had the wrong address put in but when i asked around for an icehouse they said that was it. Food is good so it gets 3 stars

Good food. The hummus appetizer was fantastic. The Greek
Pizza was good yet a little salty. Maybe I’d remove the olives next time. Good service. The waitress was good. My specialty drinks weren’t that fabulous. I had a margarita and it was too sour! I will go back.

Note**-This is a sports bar. Do not come here if you are expecting a great Surf & Turf special. With that said, THIS PLACE IS GREAT!
There’s nothing better than football Sundays. Throwing back cold beers. finger food… watching football… with good company.
One of my favorite things about this place is that they show EVERY game that’s on. It’s up to you to find a good spot where you can follow the game/​s of your choice. Being new to the area, I appreciate this very much.
I mistakenly wound up at a bar a few weeks ago to realize that they would ONLY show the Cleveland browns on the 25 TV’s they had. I missed the entire first quarter of a NY Giants game by the time I found a place that would show the game. That will never be an issue here.
They have an huge selection of beers on draft as well as bottle. Service is pretty good for what you would expect on a busy Sunday. The food is SOLID. You can’t really ask for more out of a place like this — Wings, nachos, burgers, wraps, they’re all good for what the place is (A sports bar). Again, I cant
After trying numerous sports bars in the area, this will be my go-​to from now on. It’s conveniently located down South BLVD and right on the light rail. They have a great outdoor patio as well. If you have never been here before, make sure you stop by to check it out.

The pork nachos are my favorite! The waitresses are very nice, the drinks are pretty good… Nice place to visit for dinner or to watch football.

It was okay… nothing to write home about. I went on my lunch break and ordered the Philly cheese steak sandwich which lacked flavor.

In the past I have enjoyed icehouse but those days are done. My co-​workers and I went to enjoy lunch today but quickly lost appetite.
I was unsure and kept going between the margarita pizza and burger. The waitress (with a trainee with her) said she would give us another minute to decide. Unknowingly I decide to try the burger instead of the previously ordered pizza. I ordered the burger with mayo, cheese, lettuce and grilled onions. The waitress proceeded to ask «so you don’t want a burger on the menu?» (Attitude) and I said «no» and repeated what I wanted — not that hard! As I was in mid-​sentence, not knowing there was an issue, the blonde waitress walked away and I was unable to complete my order and left the trainee standing there dumbfounded.
As we waited for our food (who knows what I was even getting) the blonde waitress (wish I would have gotten her name) proceeded to have the trainee tell us she would not be coming back to our table and the trainee would not be able to as well.
To sum it up…
We requested for the manager to come over and informed him of our issues with the service. He apologized, comped our meal and ensured he would address her as she abandoned us as customers.
The food was ok as I lost my appetite, the trainee (wish I knew her name) was excellent (we left her a hefty tip) but the main waitress needs a new job.
Would only go back for maybe a drink — only if the blonde waitress with glasses is not there! Sad :(Really liked the place!

Seems like a great place to stop in and watch the game and for that I’m sure my boyfriend will be back.
The beer and drink selection is pretty good and relatively inexpensive but the food is nothing to write home about. I was really unimpressed with my tacos. My boyfriend got a salmon dish that had WAY too much salt in the sauce. It was almost inedible.
I’m sure he’ll be back for games, but he’ll have to do some major convincing to get me to return –I’m not a big sports fan, after all. It does, however, lend itself well to bigger groups.

Ice house is your standard sports bar. This place sits in the old Southend Brewery which has moved to charleston. Cheap drinks, tons of Tvs, and decent outdoor seating with a bar. The price is cheap and its a great place to watch sports. Be weary though, the food and service is hit or miss. I have had some of the best ribs of my life here and other times the food was below average. So if you want to come watch some sports are need a quick place to chill this isn’t a bad look.

Hey it’s a bar! Actually a decent place with decent food and a large beer selection.
I stopped in here for a bite to eat for something different than my usual late night places. The staff was friendly and the pizza I ordered was actually decent for bar food.
There are TV’s throughout the place for your sports game viewing. They have a big patio that is enclosed in colder months.
I just wonder why it took me so long to try this place.

A-​OK is a good description for Icehouse.
Patio: probably the best feature about this place. Complete with a bar and TVs… it’s a great spot to grab a beer on a nice evening.
Food: I’ve had a little bit of everything off the menu. It’s all been just okay. One bright spot on the menu: the barbecue chicken nachos. Pretty tasty. If you’re looking for a good snack and drinks, stop here and get them.
Bar: wide beer selection that can fit any price range. Different specials every night.
I love the space. Lots of TVs and a fun atmosphere to watch a game. Is it one of my go-​to spots for sports? No. Do I like coming here? Absolutely. With so many options in Charlotte, it ranks in a mid level spot on my list.
