Fox Sports Bar and Grill

Just had the fish&chips. The fish was fine — crispy and not at all greasy. It IS the only full service bar /​restaurant in Concourse E, so it definitely could benefit from a little competition.

There is no seasoning on the «seasoned fries». They did not give me a pickle spear as promised. The bacon is pre-​cooked. Not impressed

Don’t come if you’re in a hurry, food is sub par & messed up our orders a few times!

This is the worst bar in the airport, and possibly the worst in the state. I’ve twice now sat at the bar for more than 5 minutes without being offered a drink, so I just get up and leave. The service isn’t that bad (it’s not good either) when you get a table, but the food is awful, and the prices for the awful food are horrendous even for an airport. My advice? Avoid this place…

I thought it was weird that they were out of draft beer when I was there, and yes, the prices were not the best — something I can’t stand about airport places. But for me this gets four stars because it has basically everything I want from an airport bar — multiple large TVs, some with subtitles, NFL Network, massive bar area, decentish choice of beers, and a menu featuring many of my favorites including loaded potato skins, pulled pork and onion rings.
When I was here, I actually got the seafood bisque soup, a Guiness and a bottle of some craft Hefeweizen. The beers were pretty good and I was really surprised at how tasty the soup was! It came with a nice big lump of sour cream and featured small scallops and shrimp and was creamy and piping hot. I devoured it. It was quite unexpected to find such a delicious soup in an airport pub bar.
Anyway, I found myself wishing they had something like this at Dulles or DCA because I am not in Charlotte airport very much. This might be up there as one of my favorite airport bars ever? Anyway, if you are in the «E» terminal in Charlotte or closeby, I definitely suggest spending your waiting time here. I was pretty pleased.

Yes it’s overpriced and understaffed. IT’S THE AIRPORT

During a very long layover here at Charlotte’s Douglass Airport, I decided to check this place out because I did not want to leave the property.
Top 40 on the speakers as you walk in, (one would expect to hear a feed of ANY sports station here) and a number of tv’s tuned to all sorts of sports. pulled up seat at the bar, greeted with a smile and ordered a Stella… It came cold and quick.
The atmosphere is not impressive. The bar smells like a dorm room and the walls are noticeably dirty.
I ordered a mushroom Swiss burger, I came before I could put the menu down… Scary… The burger was good, the onion rings ok, the pickle sad at best.
Bill was $ 32 bucks with burger and two stellas…
In summary if you are looking for a quick bite and a beer this is informal here you go… On an airport food scale 5 out of 10.
Guess that shows where our standards are at…

I’m scared. There just was a spider crawling on my table, and I witnessed a server use a USED customers napkin to wipe the table. Thank God I’m just having a glass of wine… Which took me 15 minutes to order, by the way. Waiter clearly hates his job. Unless you have ZERO options at this airport, don’t come here. Actually… just don’t come here. Wish I could give zero stars.

The best part of this place is you can catch the game on one of their half dozen flat screens. The beers are your basic beers you’ll find in all airports, from Sam Adams to Heineken. I ordered the nachos with chili on it. I should have just ordered some nachos, and then ordered a bowl of chili and dumped it all over the nachos, drowning out all flavoring and toppings of the rest of the nachos, because that’s what happened. I really want to rate this place 2 stars, but I think the servers here were very, very nice and ya know what? That counts for something. Oh, and the prices are outrageous. Yeah, I’m changing the rating back down to a 2.

I’ve had to eat here twice on layovers and I’m just not a fan. If I have time, I always go to Chilis in the main area of the airport.
The first time I got chicken and the second time I got a burger.
The servers try to keep the tables clean, but there is a ton of turnover obviously, and they do a good job of trying to stay on top of it.
The chairs are awful. The plastic/​leather seats are all cracked, so if you have shorts or a skirt on, your legs get ripped up. Just very uncomfortable.
If you have time, avoid this place.

A layover in Charlotte means that I occasionally get thirsty. Especially when I fly with US Airways. This called for a beer, not a five course meal or a snack that would be hit or miss, I did not want to take a chance. All I wanted was a beer. Nothing more, nothing less…
«The Good»
— The staff was polite, both the server and the bartender were in great moods and it passed along to the travelers.
— The beer arrived very fast and was cold… All was well with the world. :)
«The Meh»
— Nothing meh to comment on.
«The Bad»
— Nothing bad to comment on either.

Waitress was great! Knew how to greet! Fries cold and not seasoned as stated but she fixed it!

This restaurant is located in the Charlotte/​Douglas International Airport. I decided to get a quick bite between connections and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was very crowded and I was fortunate to get a table without a wait. I ordered the crab cakes with potato wedges. They have a pretty nice menu, comfortable atmosphere with several televisions to keep you entertained. Service was good and the food was good as well. Overall, good place to spend time between connections.

The waitress-​recommended chicken sandwich (grilled chicken, bacon, and cheese with honey mustard on a brioche bun) was just standard bar food — not amazing but decent when you’re hungry. The fries were crispy and fresh. $ 10 for the chicken + $ 7 for the cheapo wine (or $ 6ish for beers). The plastic silverware wrapped in a napkin was out of place for a «nicer» airport eatery.
Judging by the small crowd squinting at the TV’s from outside, this is the only place in CLT Terminal E that had NFL games on Sunday. The sports ticker «sponsored by Sam Adams» ran halftime scores for a games that finished already and boring political news headlines — what else do you expect from Fox? But when you’re desperate for some games, you go where you need to go since all the tables provide for prime viewing.

— Flight out of Boston, 5am.
— Land in Charlotte for 2 hour layover, 7am.
— Delish breakfast at Fox, 7:30am.
— First Bloody Mary evah, 7:45am.
— Second… 8am…

had dinner here and ordered the bbq burger and a beer.
Don’t feel bad if they id you – they id everyone… i mean EVERYONE…
the food wasn’t anything special. The service was a bit neglectful, but I wasn’t necessarily in a hurry, so it didn’t matter.
Quite simply, it’s a place to have a quick bite, maybe a beer before heading out to your terminal.

Definitely not as bad as some of the reviews suggest.
The best part of this airport restaurant is the location. It’s right there and has a great crowd and the seating is spread out, with many large screen tvs.
And the food wasn’t too shabby either. I’d go back. The mac n cheese was good — missing some breadcrumbs, but whatev. And the salad was yummy. The sandwiches were ordered were good too.
But the highlight and memorable item… all sandwiches come with fries, onion rings, or… FRIED ZUCCHINI STICKS. yum! perfect and crispy, with a great dipping sauce. Perfect sports bar item.
Service wasn’t bad for us — slow perhaps — but the workload our server had was incredible. One man for the entire outer area seating, way too much for him, but he managed it well and was nice too.

Yum steak salad!
Boo bad service :(

I absolutely beg to differ with the 2 star reviews of this place.
If you ever catch a red eye flight from the West Coast, (like I did from SFO en route to the Bahamas) and you didn’t sleep a wink because this very CONSIDERATE lady behind you wanted to tell the guy on 14A about her life in the city, then yeah, of course you’d be craving nothing but carbs for breakfast. Something sweet and fluffy like pancakes or maybe even French toast.
Although Charlotte’s Airport has 5 wings, (named A-​E) only 2 spots serve meals that will put the Atkins diet to shame: Chili’s and The Bacardi themed bar, both of whom serve pancakes for breaksfast.
Well, a certain Vanilla French Toast was calling my name and the one served up at Fox Sports Bar and Grill is substantial — for $ 7.99, you get 2 thick slices of french toast, served with packaged Promise butter and Knotts maple syrup and sausage (or ham or bacon if you like). You can add a fresh fruit bowl for 99 cents and that whole meal will keep you full for another couple of hours.
Our server Tami Jo was the sweetest. She also had the cutest Southern accent! She was quick to inform me that the wait for the french toast is about 13 mins, but I didn’t care, after walking all 5 wings of the airport, 13 mins. was nothing.
So, if y’all are ever in this side of the continent, catch Tami Jo serving breakfast and she’ll send you off with a satisfied smile on your face and not even that much of a dent on your wallet.

This restaurant is the only «real» one at the E Concourse in the Charlotte Airport. So I ate there, although I detest the Fox TV Channel which apparently supports this place. I had the Turkey Applewood Bacon Ciobatta for $ 10.29. It’s shown in the picture — the smoked turkey & cheese are hiding under the lettuce. The service was pleasant, but slow. Fortunately, I had plenty of time between flights. The meal was fine and not too large. Vacillating between 2 & 3 stars, I gave it 2, because it’s Fox. Sorry!
