I am proud to nominate On Tap for Best Business in Mooresville 2025. Few places capture the heart of this town the way On Tap does. It isn’t just a local spot — it’s a community anchor, a gathering place, and a source of genuine connection for so many. Rick, the owner, is the driving force behind that magic. He consistently goes above and beyond to bring people together, support local families, and raise funds for those who need it most. He doesn’t just run a business — he pours into Mooresville with intention, generosity, and heart. With Megan’s quiet support and a team that shows up every day with kindness, warmth, and dedication, On Tap embodies what it means to serve a community. They don’t just welcome people — they create belonging. The spirit that lives at On Tap is unmatched, and Rick’s leadership has made it one of the most meaningful and community-minded businesses in Mooresville. It deserves to be recognized at the very top.
If you could tell them one thing, what would it be?
On Tap isn’t just a business — it’s the heart of Mooresville, and Rick pours more into this community than anyone I know.
What’s something you love most about your town or community?
