A classic American diner
Finally, some good news to start your Monday with. A favorite Charlotte restaurant is re-opening after a long 6 years- Mattie's Diner! Do you remember the one that used to be across from the Music Factory? That tasted so good after a show at The Fillmore? That's the one!
Today, Mattie's Diner new location opens at 3100 The Plaza in Charlotte. But don't worry the same building is there, along with some additional seating and outdoor space.
When the restaurant closed its doors for the AvidXchange construction they said they would be back, and that day is finally here. The menu will still feature favorite items such as milkshakes, breakfast (all day of course) fried hot dogs, meatloaf, and your classic diner favorites. Expect the menu to feature some new editions as well including vegan options.
Mattie’s Diner will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day.
It's barely Monday afternoon but I'm already daydreaming about the weekend. And one of my favorite things to do on the weekends? Brunch. You can satisfy your sweet tooth, enjoy something savory, and hello day drinking mimosas. It's the perfect combination. Especially when it's also filled with friends. And while I have some classic go-to places for brunch I love to try new places as well. But in a city like Charlotte with so many brunch spots, it can be overwhelming to know where to try next. It seems like every day somewhere new is opening. Some places that are considered hot spots have multi-hour waits no matter what time you go.
So let me offer you at least a little help. I went to OpenTable.com to figure out what Charlotte has rated as the best brunch in town. Some would have made my list, others I don't necessarily think of as brunch, and a few I'm adding to my list to try! This list features a variety of cuisines not just your typical pancakes, eggs, and waffles. Locations vary from South Carolina to South Park to the lake and many places in between.
