We have live music, events and a dog-friendly patio so you can bring the whole family. We’ve blended BBQ, BEER and BIKES to create a truly unique experience. There are barbecue joints, and then there’s Mac’s Speed Shop. If we’re being honest, the two guys knew nothing about running a restaurant but knew they loved BBQ, beer and bikes…so they bought the site of a run-down motor shop, brought in some friends, hired people to run it and opened the doors to a great adventure on May 5th, 2005 in Charlotte, NC. Check out the menu here, and try 'em out soon.Mac’s Speed Shop was conceptualized by founders Wynn Davis and Hall Johnston. Overall, though, this is a great place to hang out and drink or eat - if you have great company the service doesn't need to be super speedy, right? That's our mantra, and we'll keep going back and trying new things.
I was obsessed with it and could never pull it off in a gazillion years.), and she took GREAT care of us. We flagged down another server that we have had before (I don't know your name! You're cute and wear lots of pink sparkly things and one time a bow that looked like Hello Kitty? Not in a bad way. One time we had a girl introduce herself and go to find out what drink specials were, then not return for 12 minutes. The food is always correct and the girls are always friendly, but there is sometimes some confusion about table assignments. I will say that sooooometimes the service at this joint is below par. I have serious first world problems, folks. It's basically a wedge salad chopped up, which I LOVE because entire wedges of lettuce are annoying to cut.

My sister likes the mac and cheese too, and we've tried several other items and liked them! My favorite is this: The Chopper salad as a side. They have a great assortment! Their fries are good, their slaw isn't mayonnaise-y, and their greens are lovely. So.whomp whomp on the pork? Maybe it was just that particular day.Īnother fun thing about Mac's menu is their sides, which they call Sidecars.
I'm in no way opposed to grease, but by the time my food arrived the grease had soaked through the bun, which was hugely unappetizing, and made the meat such that the homemade BBQ sauces couldn't really be tasted - my tongue was THAT coated. They're GREAT! On this particular day that I took photos I got the Little Big BBQ sandwich which I've been wanting to try for some time but.it was INCREDIBLY greasy. Jay and I share them almost every time we go, and for good reason. Our absolute favorite thing on the menu is the smoked grilled wings. In terms of food, we've tried LOTS of things.
All specialty, and when we looked at the menu, all were $4 - $8 so.an insane deal. Super cheap domestics, fun specials on well drinks or, on this particular day, a Mystery Bucket for $10. Ours don't care for the water and instead wait for chicken bones, but that's OK with us.Īnother great thing about Mac's is that there are always lovely drink specials.

The best thing about this fun joint is that they have a huge patio that allows dogs - clearly a huge plus for us this time of year when the weather is so nice! The servers are all nice enough to bring the doggies water, too. It's a regional chain with good food, great wings, and lots of smoked yummy options in the BBQ family. Kind of like how people take whole soccer teams to Hooters, which has baffled me for years. It's a biker bar, but one that people go to after church with their children to drink sweet tea.
