Legion Brewing’s New Spring Menu: A Fresh Take on Local Spring Dining
By: Legion Brewing Company
Spring is here, and with it comes a brand-new menu across all Legion Brewing locations. Inspired by the season’s freshest ingredients and crafted with care, our updated offerings reflect our commitment to quality, flavor, and Charlotte’s community. With each Legion location featuring its own unique menu, there’s always something new and exciting to try—whether you’re in South End Plaza Midwood, South Park or West Morehead, and looking for a great restaurant or brewery in the neighborhood.
Crafted with Purpose: Our Culinary Philosophy
Legion’s culinary experience is rooted in a deep understanding of fresh flavors, balanced textures, and seasonal ingredients. Led by Chef Gene Briggs—whose fine dining background brings a refined yet approachable touch to every dish—our kitchen operates with the belief that the best meals bring people together.
“We use the same ingredients, the same farmers, and the same culinary techniques as any ‘fine dining’ restaurant in town, but we make our menu more approachable from both a food and price standpoint so that everyone can enjoy that quality of an experience.” – Chef Gene Briggs
This spirit of collaboration and care infuses every dish we serve, ensuring that each meal reflects our team’s dedication and creativity. Chef Gene works closely with chefs at each location, allowing them to infuse their own flair while staying true to Legion’s focus on quality ingredients, community, and elevated comfort food.
Dishes That Keep You Coming Back
Consistency, creativity, and staying relevant in the ever-evolving Charlotte dining scene are at the heart of our menu development. Every dish on our spring menu is curated to balance tradition with innovation, ensuring that each visit brings exciting new flavor to the table.
Legion’s Food Philosophy
Our food philosophy is grounded in four core values:
Campfire Hospitality – A welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, with shareable dishes that encourage conversation and connection.
Craftsmanship – Thoughtful ingredient sourcing, skilled technique, and a dedication to quality guide everything we do.
Joy – Food should be fun! Playful menu items, unexpected flavor combinations, and beer-pairing dinners bring excitement to every dining experience.
Curiosity – We love to experiment—seasonal specials, collaborations with local chefs, and new culinary techniques keep our menus fresh and delicious.
So if you’ve been searching around Charlotte for delicious food near you that’s crafted with care, Legion Brewing hits all the marks.
Cooking with Beer: A Flavorful Twist
Great beer and great food go hand in hand. Some of our favorite dishes feature Legion’s very own craft brews—like our fan-favorite Juicy Jay Slaw and beer-braised entrées. Whether you’re a local beer lover or simply exploring new breweries in Charlotte, our dishes bring the best of both worlds together. It’s a full sensory experience for fans of great food and bold beer alike.
Vegetarian & Gluten-Free Options for Everyone
We believe that everyone should have a seat at the table. That’s why our spring menu includes carefully crafted vegetarian and gluten-free options, designed to satisfy without compromise. Rich flavors and fresh, local ingredients shine—making these dishes favorites for everyone, regardless of dietary needs.
Seasonal Ingredients, Peak Freshness
Quality starts with sourcing. Our spring menu highlights seasonal ingredients at their peak freshness. We partner with local farms, like Mullis Family Farms, who feed our spent grain to their cattle—then return the favor with organic, humanely raised beef. From Benton’s aged ham to heirloom vegetables, every detail is part of our mission to support Charlotte’s farms and small businesses while delivering incredible taste.
A Unique Experience at Each Legion Location
Each Legion Brewing location offers something different—and that’s by design. Whether you’re in the mood for a laid-back bar in Plaza Midwood, a relaxed brewery with a view in West Morehead, or a restaurant with neighborhood charm in SouthPark, we’ve got a seat waiting for you.
“The comfort and hospitality of everything we do—unpretentious but still elevated, crafted food and beer, but you don’t have to get dressed up.” – Chef Gene Briggs
Our West Morehead location features an Argentinian-style grill, Middle Eastern rotisserie, and wood-fired oven for a flavor-packed, immersive experience. The Biergarten, brick oven pizzas, and open taproom create the perfect spot for everything from group dinners to casual afternoons. If you’re searching for a brewery near you that offers more than just great beer, this is your place.
