Haymaker Bar and Kitchen

A Football Fans' Guide to Food in Charlotte, North Carolina

"Located on a convenient corner in Uptown near Brevard Court and Truist Park stadium, Haymaker Restaurant is a two-story brunch-and-dinner spot focused on fresh Piedmont and Appalachian produce — think an heirloom tomato BLT for brunch and NC Mountain Trout with vegetable escabeche for dinner — with a straightforward, well-executed brunch cocktail trio (mimosa, bloody mary, espresso martini) and a dazzling half-moon bar at the center of the dining room; if you head to the game after dining, servers will give you a Haymaker coffee cake on the house." - Kayleigh Ruller
