Woodshed is the cozy-by-the-fire, handsome-lumberjack, down-to-earth gay bar you never knew you needed. It's a friendly neighborhood bar for a simple beer after work, or the frisky club to get freaky during special events like underwear contests and toga parties.
The features here include favorites like pool tables, a large outdoor patio, jukebox, and two outdoor bars--so there's plenty of space and opportunity to relax or party!

Fun and Friendly!...What a Blast!
What a dive but so much fun. Good crowd on Tuesday and Friday, huge crowd on Saturday and Sunday. BEST (strongest) drinks in town, especially out back on the patio which has plenty of room with plenty of seating. Friendly and welcoming "come as you, be as you are" crowd. Decor? Well it is a dive...dirty and dusty, and smelly restrooms. But still a lot of fun!
Always a good time
I have agreat time each time I go to "the shed". People there arent into who or what you are wearing, which is refreshing for the Charlotte scene. Sunday afteroons the patio wil be packed...the outdoor bar is nice. Inside it can get smokey. Tuesdays and Sunday nights are Karaoke. Thursdays are fun...hell basically every night is fun. Leave the pretention at home and come out for a "different" Charlotte experience.
It is NOT Men-Only!!
Women go for Karaoke, and the owner is as sweet as he can be to women. I'm a woman, I stopped by for a beer, played video Sudoku, and some of the patrons even played along with me. And, while there's smoking, I didn't smell like it when I left.
