Rise Cafe – Mooresville✓
The Southern Omelet here is fluffy perfection, stuffed with sausage, onions, peppers, and plenty of American cheese, while the cheesy grits deliver an impressive cheese pull with a nicely browned top. Everything on the menu is scratch-made and prepared to order, from waffles and Benedicts to burgers and sandwiches…
Eddie's Place✓
Very local, and known for the she-crab soup for good reason. The neighborhood regulars are the endorsement.
Easy Like Sunday✓
My favorite shrimp and grits in Charlotte, backed by great service and staff. Weekend brunch the way it should feel.
300 East✓
The French onion soup is highly regarded for a reason. A neighborhood classic that keeps earning it.
Snooze AM Eatery✓
Chain, sure, but it's a great breakfast. My favorite breakfast burrito in town and awesome eggs Benedicts. Multiple locations, zero notes.
Lincoln Street Kitchen✓
Great brunch offerings right in South End. Easy choice before a day of wandering the neighborhood.
