Crab puppies and the burgers Ding Dong style! Local spot featured on Diners, Drive In's and Dives...it is so delicious and funky! Local favorite. Great patio for beautiful Charlotte weather.

Little spot across the street from Pinky's, this place is a general store plus deli plus bar plus coffee plus whatever else suits their fancy. The sandwiches are delicious, there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and they typically have a dj on the weekends. It is a fun, quirky little spot that the locals love.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is a little spot uptown with a great rooftop patio and some of the most unique cocktails. They have drinks that they smoke...drinks that are bubbly and foggy with dry ice...decadent drinks like chocolate and smore's martini's. No food but a fun place.

Parks & Nature

They have everything for active folks and for the rest of us, they have a great restaurant with outside seating where we can have a great meal, drink some beer and watch the people who do stuff. They often have live music on weekends.

Essentials

It's Trader Joes...enough said! There is free parking in the attached parking deck but it can get a bit hectic so sometimes it's best to just go up a few floors and take the elevator down.
