There’s new life coming to the former Rusty Bucket space in SouthPark. The Craic — pronounced like crack — will open at Ashley Park Lane on Wednesday, April 15, offering a new space to become “SouthPark’s living room.” Psst... It’s one of our most-anticipated restaurants opening in the Queen City.
“We want people to be able to leave their own place and come here and feel like they’re home,” Delano Little, co-owner and former WBTV anchor, told CLTtoday.
Named for the Gaelic word meaning good times and lively conversation, The Craic will serve comfort food like cheeseburgers, short rib pot roast, and fish chips + cocktails, 31 beer taps, eight wine dispensers, and desserts. The Irish-themed restaurant boasts 24 TVs and a billiards room, which can also be used for private events. Plus, the restaurant will be open daily from 11 a.m. until 2 a.m.
Editor Maria, here. I can’t wait to get a seat in the four-person snug and order a pint from the bar. Plus, the restaurant features two phone booths, where guests can hop inside if they need to take a call.
“Whether you leave the office and you’re dressed up and you want a quick cocktail before you go home, or you’re just hanging out and walking in the neighborhood, this is something for everyone,” added General Manager Parker Starre.
