This nationally recognized and award winning French bakery and coffee shop is open long hours and is perfect for hanging out with a friend over coffee. They are famous for their salted caramel brownie, which helped them get invited to the Whitehouse a couple years ago. But the food is a must if you go hungry! This is the closes location, but the park road location is bigger and better!

Our favorite restaurant in Charlotte. It is in a near-Uptown streetcar hot spot called Elizabeth. Don't sleep on the grilled grape salad and the fried chicken. Yep, really, the fried chicken there has made many best lists in the region.

RiRa gets a little crazy on weekends. But this giant restaurant and bar is a must if you are wanting to get into the center of it all in Uptown Charlotte. They have a rooftop bar that is sort of hidden off to the side of the second floor. Walking in from the stairs, look to the left for a door-- this will take you to a rooftop that makes you feel like you can reach out and touch one of the high rise towers!
