Slate Charlotte

I don’t think Slate is that much fun. It’s one of those places where’s there nothing terrible about it, but it doesn’t really have its own unique identity. I can’t really tell if it’s supposed to be a pool hall, an arcade, a sports bar, etc. It feels like it takes a little bit of all those things, but stops short of being any of those things. I’m also not really impressed with their selection of drinks, especially considering the nearby bars that it competes with. All-in-all, I don’t hate Slate, but I just can’t really find a good reason to go there.

Haven't been here in a while. It's a bigger bar with games and plenty of seating. There are multiple small rooms with different games and seating options. It's located in the south end, so parking can be a hassle. We didn't need to pay to get in, but they do have bouncers at the door checking IDs. This is definitely a spot to go if you want to play a few games, lounge, or just sit at the bar and drink. They have multiple TVs, so they do play the games. Overall, it's not a bad place to go and chill and catch up with friends. Nothing too different or spectacular with this place, though. Normal bar scene and crowd. I wouldn't mind coming again if in the area.

The girl working at the bar is quite rude and impatient with customers; she treated us very poorly, and she wasn't even busy. It's a terrible place—don't go unless you want to be mistreated.

This is one of the nicest places I've ever been let down by. If it wasn't intending to be a college bar, then I guess it was an accident. We came to shoot pool, and 2 of the 5 tables had ping pong on top which was cool in theory ... HOWEVER 2 of the remaining 3 tables were SEVERELY off level to the point that all of the balls collected along 1 side of the table along the rail cushions. When we asked a staff member if they could be straightened out, her response was "I wouldn't know anything about it". What a shame, with them being high quality diamond Tables. Yes they had 2 diamond Tables covered with ping pong table tops. 2 tables crooked. And 1 functioning table. Fun Fact: A diamond table costs anywhere from $5-$10k with proper cloth. There was pretty much nowhere to set your drinks. It just seemed to be a bunch of clueless kids running around touching everything and then leaving. No wonder the bouncers were all seemingly on edge. They had to act like glorified babysitters. Oh, and 3 out of 3 non working hand dryers in the bathroom. So now you have a bunch of college kids touching ping pong paddles, pool cues, and everything else...with no way to dry their hands. Such a wei

No bar stools or chairs. Only standing. If you try & sit near the pool tables where your friends are, you’ll get your chair removed.
