Customer Reviews
Petra's has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 based on over 600 reviews on Google
If bars had personalities, **Petra's** would be that effortlessly cool friend who knows every underground band *before* they’re cool and somehow still remembers your drink order. Tucked into Plaza Midwood like a well-kept secret, it’s equal parts neighborhood hangout, live-music haven, and late-night storytelling lounge. The patio feels like a backyard party hosted by someone with excellent taste in playlists, while inside you’ll find an eclectic crowd that proves Charlotte’s weird side is alive and thriving. The drinks are solid, the vibes are better, and the music lineup ranges from "I’ve never heard of them" to "I’m about to tell everyone I discovered them here." It’s the kind of place where you come for one beer and leave three hours later with new friends, a new favorite band, and a vague plan to start your own.
Best small venue I've ever been to. Extremely intimate setting, good drink prices (energy drinks available too!) Beautiful outdoor patio in the back to relax before the show too!
There is a very cool "music family" vibe. You are right by the stage so you can watch as these talented musicians perform. It is absolutely amazing! Cover charge of $10 as of 7.2025. Highly recommend if you enjoy live music!
Cozy & real. Monday nights are not for the faint of heart. A rich environment for young musicians and singers alike to showcase their talents! I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon this gem.
amazing little bar and music venue. we come here for jazz nights on mondays. the mezcal contain on tap is also incredible.
With the Potions and Pixels event we had a blast and the bar served awesome drinks. I would recommend dropping by for the events there as the atmosphere there is pretty laid back and open. I added images of what went down for me personally.
Monday night jazz jam was a blast!! Many super talented musicians.
