Birkdale Village

Plan to visit one of Lake Norman’s top shopping attractions, Birkdale Village. The open-air shopping, dining and residential area provides everything for a night out around town.  Entertainment is provided by the onsite movie theater as well as plenty of dining choices that are within walking distance of boutique shops and dessert spots.

Check out the popular places to grab a beverage with family and friends at the Fox & Hound and Corkscrew Wine Bar. Plenty of dining choices such as Dressler’s Restaurant, Red Rocks Café, eeZ Fusion & Sushi and Bonefish Grill are just a few favorites within steps of each other that make a trip to Birkdale full of options and convenience.

Birkdale is a popular spot all year, with live music in the summer, holiday events in the fall and winter and recreational events and art shows in the spring. In the summers, take the whole family for dessert and some time playing in the splash pad. Also, check out popular stores like William Sonoma, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Barnes & Noble and Victoria’s Secret.

Smaller boutiques line the streets while locals often stop by for a coffee at Starbucks or fresh pressed juices and smoothies at Clean Juice. If you’re in the need for a men’s haircut, stop into The Kilted Buffalo for a pint of local craft beer while receiving a trim. A leisurely stroll around Birkdale Village is encouraged during any trip to Lake Norman.
