This Is The Best Restaurant Near Bank Of America Stadium

Author Melanie Day

Football season is basically here! And it’s by far my favorite part of fall. Attending games is one of my favorite things to do, but it can get costly, and quick. Especially NFL games. Eating at the game can cost you a pretty penny for some average-at-best food. Though, while I don’t support the team, I have to give a shout-out to Atlanta’s Mercedes Benz Stadium for the best stadium food prices I’ve ever seen! Seriously, if you ever get the chance go to a game or event there. It puts Bank of America Stadium to shame in every way! Sorry, not sorry. So if you’re like me and want to eat before the Panthers game, where should you go? Tailgating is always a good idea, but sometimes just isn’t possible due to a variety of reasons. In that case, you may be interested in the best restaurant near Bank of America Stadium.

Rotowire created a list of the most iconic restaurants near each NFL Stadium in the US. And their pick for Charlotte? Noble Smoke. BBQ fits perfectly with fall and football. What could be more American? And Noble Smoke is incredible! I’d personally recommend ordering a variety of meats and sides for the table. My personal favorites? The brisket and the turkey (an underrated delicacy for sure). They also have an incredible beer and cocktail selection, delicious southern sides, and desserts.

Noble Smoke isn’t quite walking distance from the stadium though. Which is the downside. It’s located on Freedom Drive about a mile and a half from the home of the Carolina Panthers. But if you’re on your way into town from I-85 it’s right on the way!

Would you say Noble Smoke is the best restaurant near Bank of America Stadium? If not what would be your choice? View the full menu for Noble Smoke here. See which other beloved restaurants Rotowire highlighted in other cities here.
