The Kilted Buffalo: How a Neighborhood Pub and Barbershop Became a Community Staple

We Are Lake Norman

In this episode of We Are Lake Norman, I sit down with Shawn Shrader, the owner of The Kilted Buffalo, a unique combination of barbershop and neighborhood pub that has been a local favorite since 2010. Shawn shares his journey from running restaurants to opening The Kilted Buffalo and reveals the creative, community-first approach that has helped him succeed.

We discuss how The Kilted Buffalo grew from one location in Birkdale to three, including Langtree and Plaza Midwood, and how each has its own unique personality. Shawn talks about the barbershop and pub combo concept, the challenges of expanding during COVID, and his commitment to local events and fundraisers like the Lakefront Hops Festival. He also teases some upcoming plans for community events, including a potential Highland Games-inspired event.

Tune in to hear how Shawn’s business philosophy has kept The Kilted Buffalo thriving and why he’s so passionate about serving the Lake Norman area.
