Review from Kevin L.

Went with a group from work to watch a hockey and basketball game. Started out great until the 2 piece band began to play. Unfortunately had to eat and run because our ears were ringing which was too bad as we wanted to stay.
Food, beer and service were all good. -

Went on a thursday after work, and man did we pick a good spot! There was a good crowd outside enjoying the weather, eating, drinking, and playing the cornhole game. From that, I could tell this place was going to be an all around good time.
We went inside, and would have to wait 30 mins for a table, so we opted to sit at the bar. My boyfriend was happy because sports were on, but I was happy to order my drink.
I ordered the pink lemonade martini, and it was SO good!! It came in this jar, which made me want to send it back, but after tasting it, I was happy I didnt. Looks have nothing to do with it, and this drink def had me in a great mood!
My boyfriend had a corona, and a beer is a beer to me. We then ordered wings and fries. Bbq for me, and honey-hot wings for the gentleman. My wings were very tasty, and my boyfriend liked his as well.
We then proceeded to wind down a little more by taking a shot of Grey Goose. Man did the bartender give us a huge shot! Thumbs up for her!
The whole place seemed to be filled with workers from uptown who just wanted to grab a few drinks, and some food before the weekend started.
I def recommend this to anyone looking for good food, fast service, nice drinks, and a great atmosphere to loosen up after work. -

So it was time for a drink downtown and Mortimer's came to mind.
The place was packed and not enough bar seats. The bartender ( I wanna say Summer, but I cannot remember) whatever her name was, she was great...attentive...a little sassy.
I asked for an IPA, which they had in a bottle (I'm not a fan of draft).
A few drinks and this is still one of the best bars in the city.Listed in: The more I drink, the more I…, Center City Eating

I really like everything about this place. The setting is great. Sitting outside where you feel like you are in alley while being able to people watch is awesome. I had a beer and the Pete Rose in Cancun panini. Mortimer's knows how to make a good panini. The panini was an awesome combo of steak sandwich, nacho cheese, jalapeno, and au jus sauce. The taste blended together so well that after this review im probably going to get another one. The costs was $9 which isn't that bad. Our server was great and its a great place to stop at if you are near epicenter.

I am not a huge fan of the Epicenter but if I'm going there this is the place you will find me at. Mortimer's is a great place to grab some drinks and a bite before a movie or event close by. They have a few tables you can grab to sit on the patio outside where you will enjoy some great people watching. The bartenders are always friendly and you never have to wait an hour to grab a drink like some of the other bars at the Epicenter. The crowd is diverse between the young, the old, and the in between. The food is what you would expect from a bar nothing to brag about but decent and the drink prices are just right!

I promise this review will not be 4 pages long.
Very impressed by Mortimer's. The servers were very friendly (I know they work for tips) but it was refreshing to see them having a good time. Nothing I ordered took more than about 5 minutes to shoot of the kitchen. Their wings are about the best I have ever had. Sorry that place that rhymes with DW3 - these guys have you beat hands down with their wings. I ordered a sandwich, drink, and appetizer and STILL didn't spend $20 until I added in the generous tip. "I'll be back"
Oh. And I went to Mortimer's specifically because of the Yelp reviews. -

I've been here a couple of times, and I'd have to agree that Mortimer's is A-OK. Brought my parents here for a lunchy lunch in the big city, and the lunch food was great - decent portions, decent price, decent service. Luckily we made it early before it got crowded with the button-up-shirt brigade. Came here once for an after-work drink with some girlfriends, too. Bartender was very nice, and aside from some annoying Flyers fans (ptooey!), atmosphere was chill. Solid 3 stars. Nothing special, but nothing super terrible.

Great pub tucked away. We started our St. Patty's Day celebration here just to grab a quick bite. Then ended up staying half the night because it was so fun. I wish I lived closer to uptown to make this a go-to pub.

Service is a bit slow, but the pretzel bites are outstanding. I like coming here when all the other Epicenter locations are too crowded, or listen to their live music (always an acoustic jammy feel). Overall it has a great "off the path" pub feel while still being at the heart of uptown Charlotte. Come early if you want a seat for Happy hour!

This is definitely the sort of place you go to people watch, rather than to eat. Drinks were relatively cheap but the food was not anything to write home about. In fact, the cheese that came with the nachos came out cold. Most of the waitresses were drunk as well.

Oh, Sunday nights in Charlotte - when the streets are rolled up by 9pm promptly. What is one to do if the confines of the house become too much? I thought for sure the Epicenter would still be alive - especially given that it was Halloween weekend. I was much mistaken: the only figment of Halloween to be found was the eerie zombie-movie-like desolation, few people out and even the wind blowing a newspaper across the ground while the background music still blared. But tucked in a corner on the first floor was Mortimer's, an oasis in that barren Sunday desert.
I was very surprised by the small, cozy interior that was everything you would expect a good bar to be: dark wood tables and counters, plenty of things on the walls and TVs showing the Panthers losing. I didn't order any food, but the bar service was quick and attentive, and the prices were reasonable too. The bartenders know what they are doing (a rarity in Charlotte). There are plenty of spirits to mix your heart out and I was happy to see they have Olde Meck on tap. It was a casual, fun atmosphere.
Mind you, I'm not one to go out of my way to do anything at the Epicenter, but I'll certainly be inclined to steal away into Mortimer's again next time I'm Uptown.Listed in: Wineaux

This place is AWESOME! Walking in, I felt transported to an older America....great decor. The staff are all super friendly and helpful, and the sandwiches rock. The chicken Parmesan sub was delicious and huge. The boyfriend really dug their New Brunswick sandwich. The fries are freaking amazing. I really like this place and look forward to going back, bringing friends and family.

Unfortunately, a reviewer in the last month gave this great place 2 stars based off of his awkwardly skewed perception of the staff at this pub. After reading his reviews of other restaurants in the area, I find that most of them are based more off of his judgement of people and not the restaurant itself. I'm glad I gave this little pub tucked away in the Epicentre a chance regardless of his negative review.
In my opinion, the atmosphere was just perfect. I loved how the waitstaff spent time with customers, including myself. I heard employees calling several customers by name when they came in, which made this pub in the big ol' Epicentre feel even more inviting. The food was amazing! I ordered the Big Diaw with macaroni salad and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone who goes here. The best version of the French dip I've ever had! Overall, this was definitely a great pick for a night out (even on the week night that I went) and I will absolutely be back in the very near future! -

Review #30! I've heard rumors that this is the alleged milestone number necessary for one to earn their Yelp Elite badge. Unofficial rumors, but that seems to be the consensus. Given the oddity of this unwritten code, I think it is quite apropos that my 30th review is also one of the strangest experiences I have ever encountered.
My associate and I found Mortimer's tucked away in an alcove of the Epic Center, which should have been sign #1 to avoid this place. I love Five Guys, but I have my fears that even their Epic Center location has been tainted by the noxious presence that is the Epic Center, in all its douchey glory. Mortimer's was quite crowded once we entered; the crowd proliferated with copious farmers in town for the N.C. State-Louisville Bowl game which was to occur the next day. The hostess stated that there were no tables available, but that we could sit at the bar. That sounds nice...in theory. Unfortunately, the bar was full. Perhaps it wouldn't have been if there weren't several 12 year-olds sitting at the bar (doesn't this violate some sort of State Law?) After sitting at a side table in the bar area, a few seats opened up at the bar which we promptly merked.
Here's where things start to get weirder than a David Lynch film. My associate ordered a pitcher of beer from the bartender who will henceforth be dubbed as "Green Shirt". My associate paid in cash, and laid down 2 dollars for a tip. We wanted to order food as well, so we attempted to flag down one of the three bartenders for menus. Green Shirt continually purposely avoided our little section of the bar. We finally flagged down the man known as "Black Shirt". Black Shirt gave us menus, and took one of the two dollars my associate had left as a tip for the pitcher (after they had been sitting there for 10 minutes, untouched as Kathy Bates' gym.) When we ordered our food, he asked us what our tab name was. My associate stated that we didn't have a tab...we paid for the beer in cash. Black Shirt looked both befuddled and spurious of this seemingly innocuous fact. Several minutes later, we see him at the cash register speaking to the bartender known as "Blondie". He blatantly points toward my associate and I, and says something to Blondie. Seconds later, Blondie bounces her way up to us and says that we need to open a tab for the food. Wait...what?
1. Why do we need to open a tab? Can't we just pay after we finish eating?
2. More importantly, why is Black Shirt crassly pointing at us and sending Blondie to do his bidding?
Did he think that we'd be more amicable with an innocent looking, well endowed woman? Up to this point, we had done nothing to inspire fear or awkwardness or unfriendliness within Black Shirt. My associate called over to Black Shirt and told him, in a polite way, "If you wanted a card from us, just ask." Black Shirt nervously replies "You're okay." All while avoiding eye contact. We're okay? Yes...because you have our card. That answer isn't even remotely applicable. Now things delve into the truly bizarre. Every time Black Shirt came near our area, he would nervously glance over at us, only to immediately look away once we made eye contact. The man acted as though we were going to take him out back and put a bullet in his head. Green Shirt would just straight up avoid our area of the bar. Blondie had apparently been the sole bartender assigned to deal with us.
The food itself was meh at best. I had the Cuban, which was passable, but nothing special. My friend had the Big Easy, which was dryer than the Sahara and came with two slivers of avocado that were sliced thinner than Calista Flockhart. Worse still, we ordered a side of the Mortimer's Fries because we thought they must be pretty special, as they cost a dollar extra as a side, which is strange considering fries are usually the cheapest side. Accordingly, one would think they might be malt fries, or specially seasoned. Well, they were unique. Unique in that they looked and tasted like frozen french fries! These are a dollar more...why? To cover the gas money it took you to drive to Food Lion?
They had a $4 Mason Jar special, so we each ordered a Ginger and Bourbon (after Blondie thought I asked for a Bourbon Colada...really). She proceeded to literally pour a millimeter of bourbon and 11 ounces of Ginger Ale. If I wanted a GD Ginger Ale, I'd go to the Gas Station and pay 99 cents for one! My associate asked her if he could just pay $4 more and make it a double. Blondie replies "for $8, yeah." She isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but at least she was polite enough.
The weirdest thing about this whole ordeal is that we had no clue whatsoever why Green Shirt straight up ignored us all night, and Black Shirt was scared shitless of us. Much like Amelia Earhart, the Bermuda Triangle, and Yelp's unwritten 30 review rule, I'll have to chalk this up to one of the Universe's unsolved mysteries. -

OK so this place is cool and very nice. It is a 3 star place I feel, but I threw on the extra star because they use Boar's Head deli meats in all their sandwiches. This makes a huge difference. I am very picky and do not like slimy turkey and the like so this really made a big difference and very noticeable if you eat at other sports bar type places, not just in Charlotte, but anywhere.
Everyone was very friendly and felt like could be at home in here. I feel like I would come here with friends for an informal dinner as it's truly a pub. I wound not bring the grandparents for a 'nice' dinner here if you know what I mean.
I tried the chili here too and I have to say I liked the chili better across the street at Carolina's Ale House. It was just a little to watery for me, but not horrible. I got a panini and it was very good. Menu is very large with so many specialty sandwiches and panini's. I very much look forward to going back and trying more items. -

This place is fantastic. I'm in town visiting and my friend suggested we meet her here for some drinks. We sat at the bar and Sammi (http://www.sammijo.com) came bouncing over and asked if we wanted something to drink. My bar mate asked for a beer, and I wasn't sure so I stated, "Um..." and she quipped, "Sorry, we're all out of that". Of course I smiled, because clearly we had a bartender who knew what she was doing. I finally ordered a drink. What else more can I say? Sammi was a great bartender, had a lot of personality, and made sure every one at the bar was engaged in conversation and having a good time.
There was a pretty rad cover band playing that night too, so all in all it was a great night!! -

Epicenter is a four-letter word in my household. Seriously, I make the cat sit in the corner if she even meows it under her breath. Make her THINK about what she said (my mom would add, "you cannot take things back that you say. it's like trying to put toothpaste back in a tube"). But my buddy, Travi the Rabbi, and I venture down to the Epicenter to visit Mortimer's every now and again for lunch.
As it IS the Epicenter, the help is usually clad in tight bar logo'ed tank tops and jean shorts which is a nice break from corporate casual. Although, last time, two out of the three waitresses were preggers, giving them three huge tank top protrusions instead of two. Something in the water?
It is usually crowded there for lunch and a few times we have been banished to the two tops attached to the wall on the opposite side of the bar. The artwork isn't bad with the smatterings of drunken WC Fields quotes on the walls (my favorite WC Fields quote isn't represented though: "a woman drove me to drink and i never had the chance to thank her").
The food. Carter's Honey Turkey with bacon isn't too bad. The standard center loaded deli sandwich with some good flavor. Jeremiah's Bell Tower leaves me in search of solid chicken salad, but it is an okay sandwich. Nothing amazing flavor-wise. The Chicken Nacho Wrap is just weird. Call it a burrito with tortilla chips smashed inside and be done with it. And its messy (Dry-clean only means this shirt is dirty - Mitch Hedberg. This pertains to a lot of my work shirts and I don't want to run the risk of a stain). The Big Easy is a pretty solid wrap with good flavors.
The sides leave a little to be desired with heavy mayo based pasta salad, potato salad, or fruit salad that all come in little jello shot cups. So get the chips.
To sum it up, the menu has enough options to keep me coming back on the periodic basis that I do and the service doesn't irritate me. Now, if you catch me there AFTER work, smack me and send me to the corner with the cat....Listed in: Munch, Munch, Work Lunch

I know it would be wrongheaded to expect a great burrito from a bar and maybe I should not have ordered it. The burrito was not good. It was more of a vegetable wrap. My date didn't take the burrito detour and ordered a wrap directly. It was a lonely little thing in a plastic basket. She described it as "good, not great." But these facts alone do not earn this restaurants two stars. Mortimer's gets this rating because they served dinner, on a Friday night, with plastic silverware. No points awarded for how amazingly close an approximation to real, shiny silverware these plastic forks and knives provided.
The food quality, the cramped quarters, and yes, the plastic silverware all gave me the impression that I was dining on an airplane. -

Lunchity lunch lunch in Uptown...Mortimer's most certainly fits the bill for a super tasty lunch. So, that being said, this review focuses on Mortimer's as a day time eating and drinking establishment, not a late night stop (although I'm sure that would be delightful, too - I just haven't experience it as of yet). So, yes, 4+ stars for a low key and affordable lunch in Uptown. Here's why...
I've been in a few times, but recently Mortimer's changed their menu and now offers a variety of sandwiches, paninis, salads, starters and sides. Prices are right on the money - expect to pay $7-$10 for a sammie plus a side. It's important to note that many of the items here are made in house, like their tasty, light and flavorful chicken salad. No heavy doses of mayo mixed in with that bird salad. Hooray! Oh and I must mention the service. Every single server has been on the money here - friendly, chatty and helpful.
I've tried the Big Easy wrap which is slammin' with a kick. But, my favorite thus far was had yesterday when I bellied up at the bar for a panini - I chose Jess' Sausalito Turkey. De-freakin'-licious. Picture manageable ciabatta with melty cheese, thin slices of spiced turkey, paper thin shards of green pepper and red onion with some delectable sauce. It was seriously good. Side wise, I've only had fruit...even thought I've coveted the macaroni salad. Next time, Mortimer's, next time indeed.Listed in: Uptown, Baby!, Fave Lunch Locations

After hearing one of my co-workers rave about this place and it's Beef on Weck for a week or two, I figured I'd give it a try (if for no other reason than to figure out WHAT the heck "Weck" was -- apparently it's short for kummelweck, which is the type of roll used). I arrived with every intention to get the Beef on Weck, but after some deliberation and no small amount of waffling between all of the delicious-looking sandwiches, I went with the Coach Magazu BBQ Chick (it's almost impossible for me to resist a sandwich with "bacon" and "BBQ" in the description).
I took it to go, which was pretty quick...no complaints about the service from a carry-out perspective. The hostess and waitress were very friendly while I waited, and soon enough I was back home, taking my first bite...and my expectations were exceeded! Yes, it sounded delicious...but I think we all know that you can't necessary judge food by it's description. This, however, was delicious in every particular...the chicken, sliced deli-style, the cheese, the BBQ-sauce....so. good. yum.
All in all, the couple experiences I've had with Mortimers (all carry-out) have been great...and who knows, maybe someday I'll even get around to trying the sandwich that prompted my trek to Mortimer's in the first place!Listed in: Ch-Ch-Ch-Charlotte!

Came here for a friend's going away party, and to drink... but I am curious about their menu and will try to come back at some point to try their food.
This place is pretty cozy.... but for a Thursday night it was a good size... I can't even begin to imagine what it is like on the weekends with huge crowds.
The bartenders were very nice and prompt. I'll be back... and armed with an appetite for some food!... and some more drinks.Listed in: I need a drink..., See You at the Watering Hole

It's a shame that this place has some good things going for it, but it's wayyyyyyyyyy toooooooo smmaaalllllll.
I swung by on a saturday night to grab a few beer's and watch the game. They had a guitarist come in to play a show. Despite being pretty talented, he sucked because the sub was just about in your face.
Kevin N. hit it on the head. It's pretty loud.
They have some good beers on tap and the wait staff is pretty helpful. If you go, utilize the little outdoor seating area. You will save yourself from going deaf and looking like a fool walking around the epicenter screaming.

It's loud in here. Loud. Did I mention it's loud? 'Cause it's loud. Now, I admit I may be gauging this on the idea that I hit this place on the equivalent of Super Bowl Sunday around here: race weekend in the Epicentre? Locals would know better, I didn't. But at the very least, I can say I ventured into the belly of the beast for what turned out to be a couple of beers and a BLT.
I've since come to understand a couple of what appear to be semi-universal CLT truisms: if it's race week here, expect things to be crowded and loud. And if you're in the Epicentre on race week, expect to be in the middle of loads of corresponding activity. That said, the arrangement here is fine: lots of wrap-around bar, cafe tables and a small outside patio area (so as to take in the festivities). They're doing things by-the-book with the flat screens and some unchallenging menu items, and my guess is that the regulars who stop in are looking for something a little predictable. And predictable would have been fine. If standard was more along the lines of what I was craving.Listed in: Charlotte

Definite hot spot for after work it appears. Staff was great here and super attentive even given the fact we had a medium sized group outside on the "patio", basically it's the walkway outside but roped off for tables and seating. I've never eaten here but heard the food is pretty good as well. The one thing that stands out most is PBR's for $3 (tall boys). Not bad, and it does get pretty crowded so come early grab some good real estate and let the people watching commence!

A friend and I went to Mortimer's for lunch, and was not disappointed. The service was great and it wasn't too busy, especially for it being the Epicenter during lunchtime on a Tuesday. The sandwich I had was awesome and they even had a special for 25% off when you show them a Northern ID and they accepted my Passport that said I was born in New York.
Definitely a place to check out. -

The presto chicken pesto was decent but the Big Easy sandwich was very poor - there was hardly anything in the sandwich besides turkey. The sandwich was advertised as having avocado (one small piece) and red pepper (another small piece) on French bread (this was surely some sort of insult to France as it was really a larger than average hot dog roll).

Always stoked to try a place that offers a BOGO coupon in the Citipass book. I went here today for lunch, it's a pretty unsuspecting place on the "slower" side of the EpiCentre. Funny that Tim G said it was too small because I was surprised at how big the inside was. But I guess lunch time and nightlife wise you're looking at things from a different perspective. I loved the selection of items they offer(a few items smothered in brown gravy, will have to investigate further into how that tastes) and I had a hard time selecting a sandwich since they all looked like interesting combinations of flavors. I went with the WWIII which was out of this world. My friend got the nachos, normally, I never have a negative thing to say about nachos (since it's kinda difficult to mess them up) but these were less than stellar. The chips had a funky taste to them and covered in Velveeta like cheese sauce. I love Velveeta as much as the next person but it was more along the lines of not fully melted and hard (yet not lumpy), ick. Very rarely do I have nachos that don't meet my low standards on the nacho scale but these were at the bottom of the totem pole in my book. Prices are reasonable and service was attentive and quick but for some reason, I'm sitting on three stars for now as opposed to four.
They have cutesie names for a number of items, they are a pub and have some Rat Pack memorabilia on the walls so I am still scratching my head with what their theme is? . However, the randomness that is Mortimer's could bring me back. A solid spot for lunch, I would definitely check this place out again for lunch in a pinch.Listed in: Citipass Love

This is my FAV after work place!!! Even late nights the crowd is a little older and wiser than your typical fresh-faced Bfinn Bud Light drinkers. I was worried about the service but over the last couple of months they seemed to have figured it out. The food is fantastic - I love the Midway and the Tricky Chicky Parm, very reasonably priced at $9 bucks. Great beer selections and daily specials.

Big fan of Mortimers. Went here the day after Thanksgiving. Enjoying a nice PBR to start and some OMB on tap to finish. The staff is friendly and the owners are involved in the success of the place! The menu is creative and good. Went with a recommendation and one of their signature sandwiches; the Diaw. Roast Beef panini with swiss and au jus on the side. So flavorful...highly recommend. A true pub feel in the heart of the young & dumb environment of the other bars in the Epicentre. I'll be back for sure and so should you :)

Mortimors is a nice break from the rest of the epicentre ridiculousness. Patio is great for amazing people watching as they stumble by in their heels on the cobble sidewalk after too many cherry bombs. Only thing I'd change is the music. For a place that calls themselves a "pub" they sure act like a club. Crazy loud even on the patio. Love the scene here though. Def a good stop anytime I'm out at the epicentre.

The french fries are amazing, but the music and frat-boyish crowd were way too loud when we went. The server got my fiance's order wrong because she couldn't hear him, even after he repeated himself. He ordered a side salad and basket of fries. She came back with only fries on the side, which is considerably less than a basket. She "fixed" it by giving him a side salad, though that did nothing for the fry shortage. I'd give this place 3 1/2 stars if I could though, because the food is great.

Mortimers is one of my favorite hangouts and the food and drinks are always superb. Its our go-to place because we know we will have a great time, enjoy great food and a casual, upbeat atmosphere. My favorite item on the menu is the North Brunswick. Ask for it on a panini and you will not be disappointed!
