Looking for a rooftop view of the city? This is your place! We recommend going here for a drink (or two or three) before exploring the city. FYI, there are better places for food, but you can't beat the view at this place.
This is one of our favorite uptown restaurants. The truffle mac and cheese and sushi tots are must trys!
Feeling fancy? This uptown restaurant has some of the best fresh seafood in the city!
Trendy bar that is a good place for some late night fun in uptown!
Charlotte is home to many breweries, but this is one of our absolute favorites! It is right in the heart of "Southend," which is full of fantastic bars/restaurants and is right outside of the city.
Just across the stress from Suffolk punch is the home of the worlds best chicken and waffles. We're talking life changing, people. It is a trendy restaurant with an awesome vibe! You can't go wrong.
The ABSOLUTE best wine bar in Charlotte! It is surrounded by some great local boutiques in Southend. Definitely a favorite of ours.
In the mood for brick oven pizza, homemade pasta, and craft cocktails? Look no further than one of the best modern Italian spots in Southend! Seriously, it's amazing.
An airy, delightful Southend staple for brunch and brunch cocktails!
A great place for a late brunch or lunch! Heist is in an area called NoDa, which is artsy and eclectic and wonderful. It is worth taking a stroll down North Davidson to see some of what NoDa has to offer.
Looking to eat some southern fried chicken in the most adorable, southern charm atmosphere? We gotchu! This fantastic NoDa restaurant across from Heist brewery is the definition of down home comfort. P.S. The hush puppies and mac and cheese go perfect with that fried chicken.
Make sure to stop at our favorite bakery for a cheddar biscuit and chocolate croissant on your way out of town. You will thank us, we promise.
Drinking and eating not your thing? No problem, but uh, what are you doing at our wedding then (JK)…..but for real, UNCC is about 20 minutes out of the city and has a beautiful botanical garden/Metropark if you feel like walking off some of that fried chicken and booze.
