Welcome to
The Mint District!
Welcome to The Mint District, a place to be original in Downtown Rutherfordton! This specifically zoned area opened in the fall of 2023 and allows for alcoholic beverages purchased from participating ABC permitted businesses to be carried within the designated area between the hours of 10 am and 10 pm, seven days a week.
Beverages must be in specifically marked cups, and be purchased only from approved/permitted businesses within the Mint District. Zone boundaries will be clearly marked with signage; see below for the exit signs and maps showing the boundaries of the Downtown Rutherfordton social district.
