The best coffee shop and bakery that Charlotte has to offer. If Jennifer was taking you on a personal tour of Charlotte, this is the first place she would take you. It has a unique aesthetic and is locally owned. You can enjoy quality coffee, espresso drinks, tea, wine, beer, French pastries and desserts made in-house, and various soups and sandwiches for a more filling meal.

A long-standing Charlotte favorite. Reid's Fine Foods is a high-quality deli-style restaurant and bar. Featuring Breakfast and Lunch items like sandwiches, salads, and wraps and some of the best drip coffee I (Jennifer) have enjoyed. Closes at 4:00 pm.

Simple, healthy, and delicious seafood menu for pickup or delivery.

This restaurant has the best customer service I have experienced—a traditional Hibachi place where the chef cooks in front of you. The food and experience is wonderful.

A long-standing Charlotte Irish pub. In addition to great beer and bar drinks, Ri Ra's offers a complete menu serving your favorite Irish food -late. If there is a soccer game on, you can count on it being broadcast here.
