Start with lots of pickleball, add a cafe, a restaurant, a bar, and a lot more, and producer Teresa Litsky says it's all under one roof at a place called the Serve Pickleball and Kitchen in Cornelius.

It's a big facility, 60,000 square feet in all, just off I-77, and this is why they need all that room.

♪ - Well, we have outdoor pickleball courts, we have indoor pickleball courts, and we have Topgolf swing suites.

Along with a full restaurant, we have a cafe, a bar.

We have a lot for everybody.

- This idea of bringing food and fun and family kind of together and seeing other people enjoy it as well.

So we're here to stay.

We're family-owned and operated.

We're one of one.

And so you have to kind of see it to believe it.

- First and foremost are the pickleball courts.

- We have 10 indoor courts.

There is a rubber surface that people are playing on.

So it creates this unique cushion-like feel, but yet it's still a real court.

So, like, the surface on top of the rubber is sort of this, like, gritty paint that allows the play to feel like a normal court.

But if you play a few hours on these courts, you'll feel much less wear and tear than just playing on a concrete slab.

- The serve also has six outdoor courts.

- All the courts are regulation size.

All the courts are individually fenced in.

- I work nearby, and so there's a group of us from work that come out here, like, once a week to the serves.

Super convenient.

We, you know, we started playing indoors during the winter, and then we've moved outside now.

So it's great.

Food's great.

It's a good time.

- Since he mentioned food... - The food is fantastic.

- So our cafe does typical coffee, beverages.

We also do smoothies as well.

We have a pastry chef who does phenomenal baking.

- Fun fact about the cafe, we home-make all of our baked goods in the back.

So personally, I build a lot of self-control walking by these goods every day.

- I've even come here at, like, 7 a.m.

and worked over coffee and macaroons and croissants.

We have our restaurant that's an actual sit-down restaurant with breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

The food is amazing.

You can get your healthy choices.

- Yeah, food's really, really good.

I've had a few things off the menu, the chicken sandwich, the wings, the quesadilla.

Nothing's disappointed yet.

- I've had the quinoa bowl.

Fantastic.

The brunch is great.

The chorizo tacos are so, so good.

Really good.

- And then behind us, we have our bar area that people can just come and have a cocktail and drink and socialize.

- The drinks really are.

They're the best in town.

[glasses clinking] [upbeat music] - But if you want more sports, they have top golf swing suites.

- So those are simulators.

You can play golf, but you can also play other sports like football, dodgeball, hockey, baseball, soccer, football.

There's carnival games, Dave & Buster-style games.

Like, skee-ball is in there, too.

- We are one of only two locations in the state of North Carolina that have these type of simulators.

We call them bays.

We have four bays.

We have two bays that can actually adjoin for a party of more than ten, 'cause you can put about ten people in one bay.

- And so you can book those online for, like, an hour.

So we do that a lot.

We did it on Valentine's Day with our kids.

- It's a good idea for just, like, an adult date night.

- Or... - Mom's Night Out.

- In the end, the name says it all.

- It's funny, that word "serve" means different things, can be different things.

Serving the community, serving the pickleball, serving a good plate of food.

- This really is, like, a cool place.
