The Market at 7th Street

The 14 Best Things to Do in Charlotte

"This market bustles with people sampling everything from crepes to local brews. Ideal for a midday office break and lazy weekend afternoons over coffee and treats, it's a casual spot for friends to catch up and just right for a Saturday night break for couples with kids in tow. Families love how laid-back it is, and it's just right for grabbing coffee with a friend or swinging by before a night out. It's made for tasting, so come hungry and pick your way through: Start with breakfast at SC Café, followed by dumplings at Momo Station. Nibble on cheese at Orrman's, where there are more than 100 different types. There's so much more, including standout coffee that's worth the trip alone." - Nancy DePalma
