Providence Road Sundries

A family pub where everyone is welcomed! Friendly atmosphere and great service. Enjoyed their burgers but their sides (onion rings and fries) were not crispy or freshly fried. Limited parking on front. Recommended

Providence Sundries is a true Charlotte classic—one of the city’s oldest and most beloved neighborhood bars and restaurants. In all my years of coming here, I’ve never had a meal that didn’t hit the spot. The food is consistently satisfying—the kind that makes you hum with happiness as you savor every bite, especially one of their legendary burgers. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but it’s always worth the effort once you’re inside.

First time here & I had the grilled chicken BLT and fries. It was delicious and a very good portion. The bar stools aren't comfortable but for a quick bite to eat it was tolerable.

Nobody greeted us when we came in and had to wait a bit for waitress to bring menus. Good service thereafter. Black bean breakfast burger had good flavor, double patty was a surprise, could not eat it all. Shrimp tacos were also good. Lots of TVs to watch.

Great place for lunch. Staff was very nice. All the food we saw all coming out of the kitchen look great. The flavors were there with ours. I think things could have been a little bit better if it wasn't packed in the day before a holiday. I definitely recommend it

Providence Road Sundries is a great spot for watching games, eating/drinking with friends and family meals. The left side of the restaurant has a bar, high tops and booths and caters more to adults. The right side has booths and tables and caters primarily to families/kids. The menu has solid bar food. It consists of bowls, salads, tacos/wraps, burgers and sandwiches. We’ve tried most of the menu over multiple visits and the Cowboy Burger and Pimento Grilled Cheese are our favorite handhelds. The Chicken + Black Bean and Rice bowl is super hearty as well and worth a try. Service is good and the owners are cool. It can take some time for food during peak lunch times - especially on weekends when it’s packed. The only downside to this place is the parking. sundries shares a tiny front and back lot with Pasta & Provisions and it’s really hard to not only get a spot but to turn into the shopping center depending on the traffic coming down Providence. We usually just park alongside CCK in the adjacent neighborhood to avoid the hassle. It’s a great local, family owned spot that caters to everyone.

They have a great and expansive menu. You will take time to choose if it's your first visit. I chose Billy's Club. Delicious. Reasonably priced. Our waitress, Misty, was very nice and efficient.

Very nice menu, plenty of choices. The burgers were delicious, and you can get a single or a double. Superb onion rings. Great draft beer choices. Service was outstanding. Will be back soon.

This is a good little restaurant and bar combo. They have a good salad with homemade dressing. they have individual variety sliders had a blackened, blueberry blue cheese slider. It was good, but had fried onions on it for a change. Not sure why ? The fries were cold.. I don't recommend coming here if you're in a hurry they have lots of variety

Server was sweet but the bar tender was extremely rude. Our table had no space on it and my drink was empty so I went to the bar to hand the bar tender my empty glass and got yelled at for putting a cup down on a "clean surface" I put it down at the bar. I recommend if you come get drinks with the server and eat with the server don't bother giving the bar tender any mind!!! .... ( 7/12/2025 at 3:30pm)

Excellent service, variety on the menu. Good value. Clean , nice ambiance . Was waited on promptly. Food was very good. I would definitely go back.

I ordered take out from here. I was looking for a patty melt and tried theirs, it was just OK. The burger was OK but the sourdough bread was too small. The onions were undercooked and it turned out to be dry. Unfortunately they don't add the thousand island dressing. I'm sure their other options are worth considering but pass on the patty melt.

A quaint space to have a beer or a nice drink to end a long hard day. The parking is tough but there are additional parking spaces in the back. Music keeps it happy and the staff is friendly and accommodating. Traffic is constant but the area is inviting.

Came here on a Monday night to watch the hockey game and sat at the bar! The bartender, Forrest, was awesome and he gave my partner and I many recommendations regarding food and drink! He put on the hockey game right at 8pm and there are many TV's so you can watch any/all sports or other shows you may want to watch. The new featured cocktail ranch water with topo Chico was so refreshing! Definitely recommend, this is a super cool spot that Charlotte locals frequent!

Don't watch any games after 8pm here. "Open" until 2am but they'll close your tab at 11 and shut you out because "everybody else left". Even if it's the Tar Heels in the Sweet 16!

Bussin' I don't know what's in this raw dogging picabu sauce but alright picabu, I see you. Also I don't know who Billy is but his club sandwich is supreme

Convenient place for lunch and fast go-to orders for take out lunches! I arrived to the restaurant and the parking lot out front was full, but thankfully there were signs for more parking in a lot behind the restaurant. They have a back entrance, but I didn't see it when I parked. Once inside, I walked up to the counter and placed a to-go order at the bar right away. I only waited for 10 minutes before my food was ready I ordered a Pimento cheese grilled cheese with sweet potato fries for myself and an avocado BLT with sweet potato fries for a co-worker. The pimento grilled cheese was made with white cheddar and was very tasty and the sweet potato fries were thick cut and crispy! Overall, it was very homey and local feeling inside with pictures and memorabilia on the walls. The staff were friendly and the food was decently priced. I would recommend this for a quick lunch spot!

I have always enjoyed everything that I've order from here-except the shrimp. It's just not a shrimp place. I had it on my salad once. Everything else for lunch is excellent. I've never been for dinner!! The service is great and very quick. I usually come on my lunch break and even when dining in, I get out with plenty of time. I recommend the sandwiches and wraps. Also the soups are very good. My friend really enjoyed her quesadilla. I will try the nachos next time!

This quintessential little spot in Myers Park has clearly been a staple for many years. There's photos of regulars on the wall, and you can tell it's a family friendly spot, especially after church on a Sunday. My husband and I ventured in for lunch and entered through the back door (parking here is interesting - but there is plenty). We had to weave our way through the restaurant, but there really wasn't a hostess stand, so that was a challenge. We were seated promptly, but service seemed slow throughout the meal - like they might have been short a server. My husband ordered wings and I ordered the Ruben. We also got a side salad and tots. The food was good, but nothing great or stand out. The salad was lettuce with a giant chunk of cucumber and weird pita crumbs (like the bottom of the bag was dumped in). The wings were flavorful, but they stayed in the fryer a little too long, and they didn't have a ton of meat on them. The meal and service were fine, but honeslty, I wasn't blown away by it. It won't steer us away if we are in the neighborhood, but maybe try some different menu items next time we are around.

Love having this great bar right down Providence Rd from my house . They have changed the menu since I was there last and you have lots of great choices. All kinds of sandwiches, wraps, bowls and entrees. We started with the most soft delicious Pretzels with a mustard and queso to did them in. Then we ordered just a small sampling of Blackened Wings which were crisp and perfect ! I ordered a Grilled Cheese with Tomato and Bacon which just the thought makes my mouth water now ! Also I had a side of Fried Okra - wonderful ! My son had a Blackened Salmon Wrap with steamed Broccoli. The Bartender was so nice and helpful - she was friendly also! Give it a try - lots of beers local and regular to help wash down the great food !

I have gone to Providence Sundries for many years but tonight it was run by slugs. The waitress was just lousy . She paid no attention to us and took her time getting anything done . But my husband wanted another Beer before we left and the waitress never came back . So he asked to bartender and he told him if he wanted another beer that he would have to wait for our waitress to come back to get that as he was not able to serve him a beer and tell his coworker waitress to add it to our bill. At that point we just decided to leave. Wow what Covid has done to places like this . If I was the owner I would fire both of them and find new responsible staff or just close the place... very disappointing .. If you still must go to Providence Sundries avoid Holly as your waitress and the bar tender... just Lousy....

My boyfriend and I had the best time here! It gives a local bar feel and is bigger than it looks from the outside. We didn't try the food but drinks were reasonably priced and service was great. We made random friends and can't wait to go back.

We had the best lunch today at Providence Road Sundries! All of the tables were socially distanced, everything was clean and all employees were wearing their masks, really making us feel comfortable to dine in. Our waitress was so helpful in making suggestions and customizing menu items to our tastes. I got the Grilled Chicken & Avocado Sandwich and it was seriously amazing if you love avocado! Crispy bacon, Swiss cheese, tomato & lettuce with a delicious Picabo Sauce. I didn't know what Picabo sauce was before ordering and it really pulled the whole sandwich together. We also got Billy's Club Sandwich with tater tots, it was huge and an all around beautiful sandwich. If you love ranch, definitely get a side salad, sweet potato fries or tots to dip to your hearts content. YUM!

Been going there for decades, but be warned : if you go on a Saturday for lunch, make sure you sit on the left-hand side. My friend and I were seated on the right hand side, and I've seen kids at Chuck E. Cheese's that were better behaved.

Seemingly a great neighborhood pub. Been a customer for decades but no more. My last visit (1/10/24) resulted unfortunately in terrible service and a rude wait staff. Again. I won't be back. What a shame.

Super hungry on New Year's Day and the steak quesadilla was everything. The bartender Michael was friendly and service was prompt. I'm def going back to get the quesadilla for my husband this week! Thank you!

First timer here. Burger was pretty good. The waitress Ally was in a crappy mood from the minute I walked in. Tables were all dirty as they probably were busy I'm sure. A lot of their customers are older, as the table next to me were. The older gentleman asked her for a menu and she said to use the QR code; however, a lot of older people still prefer paper menus. She walked away with a nasty SIGH as if it inconvenienced her. Crappy attitude gets you crappy tips my dear. Not sure if I'd want to return.

After giving this restaurant multiple chances to get it right in the last year, we may be done with them. We are long time weekly customers-in person and take out-and in the last year something has been wrong with EVERY order. We have had missing items, wrong items, poorly cooked items. Sorry guys you are in a cruising mode and we are upset now. the last time a few weekends ago with a missing item we called after getting take out (we live a ways a way and not convenient to go back to correct it). the person apologized and said we wld be credit on our card. 3 weeks later and still no credit on our card. Food is too expensive to have us continue to accept this service. we always eat local but are taking you out of our rotation. if you can get it together let us know. Do better or even loyalty can help you. and by the way the new fries you switched to are awful.

Good food and nice staff. The grilled pimento cheese with bacon was really good. Added jalapeños for a little spice. Side of onion rings with some sort of "special" sauce. Good meal all around.

As others yelpers have stated, Providence Road Sundries is a quintessential little spot in Myers Park. I have been going to Providence Road Sundries for over 20 years, ever since I moved to Charlotte. Throughout the years I have been on many different occasions, for snacks and/or drinks at the bar only. Food is pretty good, nothing outstanding, but good for bar food. Service at tables is definitely better than bar service. Not saying bar service is that bad, but they do favor their regulars. Overall, Providence Road Sundries is a great spot to meet up with friends, especially local ones, to enjoy a quick bar bite and a good drink.

We sat in the bar area the wife ordered Salmon Salad Blackened and I ordered the 60's burger. The burger was actually darn good, and the wifes salad came out but the salmon was not blackened. She said they young lady repeated it back to me so I blame the kitchen. I agree with that to a point, they do not write down the order so when the meal is complete they have no way of verifying the order, except by memory. Which apparently in this case failed whether it was the kitchen that hosed up the order order the server who did not write the order down, really does not matter it came out wrong. The wife would not send it back and said it was good. So all in all the food is good but apparently they have no way to verify what they are bringing out is correct. We have been here before and will be back again. This is a great place I am sure for sporting events and if you have kids this place is a plus. I understand the 3 star reviews but everyone has their own way of reviewing, for me it is 4 stars for what they do.

Best trashy food I know. Service is always good, good drinks & the chicken tenders are the best if you're wanting heavy food. Love it.

They make their fries in a dedicated fryer and can make pretty much any sandwich on gf bread. I had an avocado BLT and sweet potato fries and it was all yummy.

I read about this place and bugged my wife to go. More often than not when I read about I place I want to like (old bar, good food, friendly reputation) I hope my dreams are fulfilled. Not yet. My wife and I went on a weekday for lunch. I had a beer and a patty melt (I like my melts) and my wife got the salmon wrap. Both were over-cooked and dry. Bummer for sure. Our waitress was wonderful and was very proud to have worked there for I believe 13 years. Not her fault for sure. It had the vibe but it needs to consistently put moist delicious food out from the kitchen. I'll try once again, but in an area like Charlotte....the 2 strike rule is in play. Too much competition.

This famous local haunt has clung to the edge of Providence Road since 1933 and served up some of Charlotte's best burgers ever since. Amazingly though, until my recent lunch there, I never tasted one. I'd say it was worth the wait, almost. I just went with the standard cheeseburger with cheddar. Although it doesn't say on the menu, what is listed as a cheeseburger is actually a double cheeseburger, as they all are. The ground beef was lean and tasty and the patties were completely encased in melted cheese. The accompanying lettuce, tomato and onion were fresh and crisp; however, I must say that the lackluster bun disappointed me. It was cold, untoasted and seemed an afterthought to an otherwise excellent burger. As I have said before, the bun can either make a break a burger; in this case, it didn't break it but it certainly was a detraction. The fries appeared to be freshly cut in house but were a bit soggy. The combo ran $9.99 and overall was good. Service was also friendly and attentive. The atmosphere what's nostalgic and quaint. The booths appeared to be original however were a bit uncomfortable. The entire restaurant was clean and had a high sanitary rating. Overall it definitely warrants a return visit

Since when are four onion rings on a toothpick an "order of onion rings"? Since when are "extra crispy,please?" Buffalo wings white and rubbery? Since last night at this ridiculously poorly run "restaurant". Don't waste your hard earned dollar in this pathetic excuse for a establishment. I went there as a child and remember it as a great place... I guess whoever bought it is hiring the least expensive and untrained people they can. SAD. The staff is rude and really just wants you to go away... mission accomplished!

Stopped in last Saturday. Have always wondered about the place because we go to Pasta Provisions every so often. I had the steak sandwich and my wife had slider and fries. Food was a 4.5, but we didn't feel so welcomed. It was clear there was a regular crowd and the staff was falling over themselves to talk with them. On the other hand we didn't get close to that attention. I left a $10 tip for a $24 bill and when the change was returned it was set on the table and not a word. I wish the service was more personable.

The service was friendly and efficient, that is about all that was good. I ordered a burger medium, it was well done and dry. Onion rings were not crispy, you could still taste the flour they were so undercooked. The rest of my party were also unimpressed by their food. Might a good place for a drink but eat somewhere else.

Food is good but the man with the headband and curly hair is ridiculously rude. I will not be coming back for his soul purpose. Was mean mugging me the whole time and made me feel extremely uncomfortable. Asked for simple condiments and he acted as if it was the largest task he has ever taken on. The woman bartender is awesome. I won't be coming back here because of the one guy with the headband.

I drive by a few times a day and I always think I need to stop in and give it a try. I went a really long time ago and it wasn't memorable. That said, this weekend I was around the corner and decided today was the day. I'm glad I did. When we arrived we were told by a nice man that we should seat ourselves. All good and set the time that this is really a bar first, restaurant second. Jess our waitress came by a shortly after sitting down and was very helpful. We ordered a bunch of things from the menu and it was all really tasty. The drinks were great. We all remarked about how much we liked it and needed to come back.

I called this evening as I was driving in to Charlotte and asked for a "take out" order. I was told by the person (male) answering the phone...."We are not doing take out, we are too busy..". What? I couldn't believe someone would say this. (When you are busy -- take out orders are ideal -- Restaurant 101.) Furthermore, the guy was rude and did'nt say we're sorry.....etc. This guy should be fired. After 21 years of being a loyal customer -- I am over it. Sundries good buy. Oh by the way, Bad Daddy's took my order over the phone.

My friend and I just had lunch here.She had a salad and I had a wrap. Both were very good as was the service from our server,Paul.I will surely go back there again.

Lovely sports bar on Providence. Solid food, excellent service and comfortable seating. I had the Chicken Tender Salad with a cup of white bean chicken chili. The chili was very flavorful. The Chicken tender salad was so yummy, with plenty of veggies and homemade dressing. Excellent wings, too.

Hamberger got me sick and my dog. Went on Saturday for a bite to eat and ended up not feeling well that night and next 3 days felt bad. It was apparently from the hamberger and unfortunately gave my dog a few bites of it and he was so sick i had to take him to vet. It was a very expensive hamberger to say the least with a vet bill.

Walked into this restaurant, which is one of my friends favorites, and I honestly don't know why. They have no hostess which resulted in me being yelled at by 2 different employees to "sit wherever", none of whom seemed happy i was there. Ordered the mozzarella cheese sticks to start, which tasted the exact same as the ones from the frozen section at the grocery store. For our meals we split 12 garlic parmesan wings and the blackened fish bowl. Wings had barely any meat on them and tasted like they were coated with straight butter, and the fish was dry as a bone. On our way out I saw what appeared to be a huge cockroach, ew! Based on the large prices, unfriendliness, and poor food it's safe to say I will not be returning.

I had a coupon for Providence Road Sundries, so we decided to give it a try. We were looking for someplace casual, but I was worried I might be a bit underdressed in jeans and a sweatshirt being that Providence Road Sundries is smack-dab in the middle of 1/2 million dollar homes. Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong. In fact, I may have been OVERdressed. PRS is very casual (not that there's anything wrong with that, but it just differed from my expectations). Our server was also the bartender and she greeted us at our table from behind the bar (we went on a slow night). The booths are highbacked (nice for some privacy) and made from an old wood. The tables elsewhere were tables my grandparents had in the 70s, with the rounded seats reminding me of wagonwheels. The restaurant had the feel of a place I might have really enjoyed during my college years -- hang out with friends, get cheap beer, and eat greasy food. As an adult, though, it really didn't feel like my scene. Don't get me wrong. I'm all about greasy food sometimes. In fact, we both tried the burgers, but they were average. As were the french fries that accompanied them. I guess that was fitting for the setting. If I lived in the area, I might walk over to Providence Road Sundries for a drink or dinner, but... Ah, heck...who am I kidding? If I lived in one of the 1/2 million dollar homes in the area, I'd probably have my chauffeur drive me somewhere else.

The service was awesome. I sat down at the bar and I was greeted quickly. I wasn't sure what I wanted so I sat there for quite a while debating. Anyway I decided to go with wings. I tend to try wings at any establishment where it is my first time trying them... these wings were really over cooked.. I mean it sounded like I was eating chips. Good flavor but obviously had just been over cooked.. I brought them home to try and doctor them up but was unsuccessful. I ended up throwing them out.

I have been coming here for about 30 years and it's always been a good experience. today was an exception. the service was sub par, the place was packed and they only had one person on the floor for the main dining area. when we finally were able to place an order I asked for my side item to come out first and I was told no it would come out with my burger. 35 minutes later we were served our order and the onion rings were barely warm and had obviously been sitting around for a long time. our waitress did not come back to the table to check on us until I flagged her down to get the water I ordered. I was told that she would get around to it when she could. I had finished my burger by then and gave up on getting fresh onion rings. we waited about 15 minutes after we ate for our check and when our waitress did not come back I stood at the end of the bar to try to get someones attention. We walked up to the front to ask a very nice young lady if we could get our checks and she obliged. I could see the another woman who seems to be the manager, she just walks around as far as I can tell, glaring at me I suppose because I did not wait longer for our check. After I had signed the check the glaring woman came up, picked up the check and then called me out in front of another customer because I only left a 10% tip. honestly I was feeling like they should have paid me at that point but I added 2 dollars to the tip I should not have left to begin with. Through all of this our waitress was smile free and did not apologize for the lukewarm grease soaked onion rings. I will be back to Providence Road Sundries again, this place is legendary. I hope they survive the woman I think was the manager and that they hire more staff for the next holiday. The waitress? i that she was so overworked that her attitude was really bad and the service was abysmal.

This place sucks. I was recently here and their food is pretty decent but not the treatment that I received. I was openly insulted by their staff. The lady server just came up to me and said would you mind putting your flip flops back since someone complained about it. If I'm sitting at my table and having my meal what difference would it make frankly speaking. I wonder what made them to say that. There was a white family sitting next to me and the guy even had flip flops but they didn't any problem. Honestly speaking I was the only brown person who was at the restaurant at that time. 90% of them working here were white including my server. I felt like it had something to do with my ethnicity since I was not white. I'm not going to come back and will not encourage this to happen with anyone including me. The only reason why I gave two stars is due to their food but not hospitality.

Finally a bar that has obviously been around a long time. Late 30's, early 40's crowd. Slow going even on a Saturday at 6pm. Not a great burger but not bad either. A little over-cooked, but solid. Hot french fries. I'll be sure to visit again and try other items on the menu mainly because of the full bar. They have a respectable selection of draft beers, scotches and vodkas. There's billiards and video games but nobody's paying attention to that. It's hard to categorize because it's mellow enough to have a conversation even with the juke box playing and plenty of people watching games on multiple TVs. It doesn't feel like a sports bar. This place has charm and warmth. Something a lot of newer bars in town are missing. This is a true neighborhood pub.

Surprisingly large bar tucked away on providence. Great selection of food. Mostly bar/cafe foods. Beer and cocktails. Plenty of tvs around to watch the games. Food was quick and service was friendly. Prices were very reasonable and everything was clean. There's more parking behind the place.

This rating is based on the reuben from one time there so it's possible it was an off night or the reuben just isn't that good there. I stopped into Providence Road Sundries to continue my adventure around Charlotte to find the best reuben the city has to offer. I didn't know exactly what to expect, and the reuben ended up being fairly sub-par. The corned beef was lacking flavor, the bread was mediocre and a bit burnt, and in general the reuben just didn't have much going for it. The proportions of ingredients were fine, but that doesn't matter much when the ingredients themselves aren't very good. In my opinion this reuben was in the lower quarter of all I've tried around Charlotte, which is quite a large list at this point.

This was a cool place. I've been past this place hundreds of times in the past 15 years, and never stopped. Now, I realize i've missed a hidden gem of a place to hang out. Its not fancy, but has a nice home feel to it. It was a beautiful day outside, and they had the big garage door open creating a open seating area. Our waitress was outstanding, super friendly. The service was fast. The food was good. What's not to like? I had a Triple C Black IPA which was on draft. My daughter had an IBC root beer. We had chips and quest, which were very good. Potato skins, which were good, not great. And we split a Talapia fingers entree, with fried okra. We had 45 minutes to eat, before we went to an appointment at 6. This was a super relaxing place to spend it, and we got our food quickly, and it was all very tasty. I'll definitely be back to hang out here.

Sundries has been around for a long time. But it's also changed hands, been cleaned up, and given a breath of fresh air which includes better food (and menu). I have not had a bad meal here. Love: wings, sliders, salads, tots and onion rings. Get the onion rings. Parking is tricky so uber or walk if you can. Good place to watch games. Note: the right side of the bar occasionally turns into daycare. So if you have kids bring yours, or if you don't like kids, sit on the left. Love this place.

Very Nice. It was like falling back in time when I use to visit the place back in the late 80's early 90's. I stopped by just for a nostalgia moment having a few apps and drinks with the wife, and was definitely not disappointed! I will need to re-visit this location again, as we stopped in on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, and just had a small snack. I am happy that this Providence Road Sundries is still kicking, and as usual, it is a locals place. NCFoodGuy

Terrible service, food was cold and took forever. I also had a friend of mine actually asked to leave for working on his laptop while enjoying a sandwich and a pint. Lots of better places to visit. Try Thomas St for better food and service...

The staff at Sundries has been extremely respectful and cautious during COVID - all employees wear masks, there is ample space between seats and hand sanitizer is readily available. I feel very safe and comfortable when eating here with friends and family!
