The 10Best program spans a variety of travel topics, from hotels, tourist attractions and activities to restaurants, bars and breweries. Its editors meet with industry experts to choose nominees for each contest, with the top 10 then determined by popular vote.
The beer garden, at 1300 S. Tryon St., includes a rooftop bar with skyline views and an atrium-style setting, with a two-story tree serving as a focal point of the design. A large patio with fire pits fronts South Tryon Street.
Two other venues in North Carolina also made the list.
