The Sweet Spot

Please read this before you eat here... I ordered the sausage, eggs and bacon. First, they brought all three on separate small plates, lol, silly young folks. My "pork" sausage that I bit into was raw in the middle. I told the young girl, and she took it away and I told her I am not going to eat the meal either. She didn’t say anything and she did not respond back. When we got the check, I told her my meal was still on it and she told me I still had to pay for it even though they served me raw pork sausage and I didn’t eat the meal. I asked her for the person in charge, and she sent me to another 20-something young girl. I explained the story to her and she told me they still make people pay for their meal (though to self "so you are charging people for food they are not eating and food that’s inedible"). Well, since you don't want to listen to me, let’s see what the BBB, the County Health Department, and possibly my attorney have to say about this. So sad, since the pandemic customer service has gone out the window and now basic food is overpriced and they expect large tips and now businesses are making up weird service charges and fees. But to show good faith and to show her how you should treat people, I still paid for the meal, and I left a good tip like a gentleman. Unfortunately young lady and The Sweet Spot Management, now you will have bigger problems than me...I did try to warn her 😕

We love this place! We usually get Amylia or Haley as our waitresses and they’re always so sweet. The food is great and responsibly priced and it’s never too crowded so it’s a nice atmosphere. This is our favorite local spot near Highland Creek! One thing I’d like to request if they read this! I wish they had smoked salmon to add to bagels or to the Eggs Benedict. Thank you! 😀

Food was not good at all. The sweet tea was amazing but the food was so bland and tasteless it tasted similar to a hotel breakfast. The bacon tasted like the grease, the potatoes were plain and dry no flavor, tasted like just sweet bread, and eggs had the texture of the powdered eggs. The servers were very helpful and kind but the food, please don’t waste your time.

Every time I go into Sweet Spot, I am greeted kindly by the staff and am taken care of by the wonderful server, Hannah. I love the variety of options that I have available, in fact, I get something different every time I come in! The food is always delicious and quick to be made and served. The service is also incredible every time, without fail. I highly recommend this as a wonderful breakfast place to take your friends and family!

I can honestly say, I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this place! Authentic breakfast, good service, and a great atmosphere! Will definitely recommend to friends!

We tried this place today because we have been trying to find a good local breakfast spot. As hard as it is to say this I honestly would not waste your time or money. We barely ate anything because it was so bad and the waitress never even said a thing about our plates still being full. We only saw her when she took our order and then brought us our food. The hash browns are just frozen store bought and were very bland and not even cooked properly. The bacon is horrible, they cook it in a microwave and it is barely even cooked. I actually told the waitress that I needed new bacon because that was still raw. She brought a plate to the table and had me put my raw bacon on that plate and said she would throw it back “in”. That bacon was brought back to my table less than a minute later because she just put it back in the microwave to cook it a little longer. The crepe my husband ordered was not cooked through and had no cream sauce like it was supposed to have. The sad thing is their menu has a statement all over it that says “if you order it, it will remain on your ticket”! This is obviously because they must get one complaint after another on the food. So keep your $50.00 and go find a place that actually cares about what they serve and their customers. We unfortunately left still starving and had to go spend more money somewhere else.

It was a busy Saturday and the restaurant was packed. Hannah C was my server and she was very friendly polite and did a great job! The rest of the staff was all friendly and even though it was busy the food came out quick and was delicious! Overall great experience!!

Bacon was not cooked to my liking. Amylia brought me another order immediately! Very nice and friendly!!

Great food and Trish was the best server! She was personable and professional. The restaurant has great vibes!

I took my mom to the Sweet Spot for breakfast and I have to say I was a little underwhelmed.. Our server was Amelia and she was pretty much doing everything; she was waiting tables, cleaning tables, and seating people and with so much on her plate some things slipped through the wayside. We ordered chicken & waffles, which came out hot, fresh and were very tasty, but the coffee was definitely a little weak and needed an expresso shot, but the Expresso machine was not working. They have an array of Java drinks on the menu board, but with one of the main pieces of equipment down selections were limited. The tables still had dishes and leftover food on them and needed to be cleaned but surprisingly the bathroom was in good shape. I'm not counting them out and I would definitely give them another try if I was in the Huntersville area.

I took my family who was visiting from out of town here on the 4th of July. It was a party of 5 and automatically the 20% gratuity was included. We like to tip on top of the added gratuity but in this case we didn't. The server did bare minimum. We asked for 1 water and she didn't bother to ask if anyone else wanted one . Overall the service was lack luster. Pro: The food came out fresh and was OKAY but I've had better . We won't be back .

The inside, quite appropriately, looks like coffee shop. Indeed there is a section of the restaurant devoted to being a coffee shop. My daughter and I stopped here for breakfast. She ordered a chicken sandwich and I ordered the biscuit and gravy bowl. We also both ordered a side of grits. There were a few shortcomings with service that I would not have expected as I have found those to be rather standard for a sit down restaurant. For instance, there was no creamer on the table. We had to ask for it. Then when I asked if the scrambled eggs were from fresh eggs, as opposed to poured out of a carton, the waitress smirked at the suggestion. The grits were not creamy and did not come with butter. When I asked for butter I was given some sort of butter substitute which tasted awful. Finally, we were only given one refill of our coffee during the meal. That being said, my daughter enjoyed her sandwich and seemed to like what she was served there. I was not terribly impressed, however, and don't plan to return anytime soon.

We wanted some coffee and the Sweet Spot popped up as an option we never had so we decided to try it out. Since we originally only went for coffee and decided we wanted food once we got there, this ended up being a to go order experience. The server that helped us was nice and the place had a few people in it for a weekday morning, but wasn't busy and we didn't have to wait to long for our coffee and food. I ordered a latte, it was fine. Nothing spectacular but it hit the spot. I also ordered pancakes and bacon. When we got home the first thing I noticed was my 2 pancakes were huge and fluffy, so that was a plus. I also noticed my order of bacon was supposed to be 4 pieces and was actually like 8. So, that was really fun! The reason for my 3 star review is because that beautiful surprise double order of bacon also had a surprise piece of thick long black hair.... That really put a damper on the food mood once I saw it. I saw it after the fact so, yes I had already eaten most of my food. The hair was in the bacon box on the extra slices. Can't say I'll be going back to this spot any time soon.

It's been awhile since I last ate at the Sweet Spot. I will be the first to admit that my expectations were pretty low. However, I was shocked to see that they were packed on a Sunday morning. Thankfully we were able to be seated immediately at what looked to be the last available table. I took that as a good sign. We sat for awhile before our server came to greet us. We hadn't realized that the menu was via a QR code on the table. Once I pulled it up, I was pleasantly surprised to see a menu that was a bit more elevated than the traditional diner food that I remembered before. Just a note that the menu definitely favors carnivores. I ordered the Cali Breakfast Bowl but switched out the cheese and asked for my bacon on the side, which I gave to my son. My daughter ordered the fruit crepe. My son was happy to take advantage of the gluten free French toast. The food was good. My kids ordered an iced chai with oat milk and a hot chocolate with oat milk. Neither were blown away. So I probably would stick to basic drinks like juice or coffee. All of the servers appeared to be high school/ college girls. They were all polite. I have no issues with returning again in the future.

THEY ARE STEALING PEOPLES MONEY & THEY BLATANTLY LIED TO OUR FACES. I placed an order over the phone today & during the call she said that she was only able to take payment over the phone, not when I got to the restaurant. I paid the fee & upon retrieving my food I noticed that a gratuity fee had been added to my bill. When I made them aware of this they brought out the manager & he appeared to have an attitude. He then proceeded to tell me that there was nothing he could do because the food was already prepared and he stated that information about being charged gratuity for orders placed over the phone was located on their website. I then went to the website to verify this information and it was NO WHERE to be found. This will be my first and last time coming to this establishment. Their attitudes are very lackadaisical and rude.

Almost empty restaurant. Semi full staff. 4 filled tables.... After long wait, someone from the bar area finally said seat ourselves. Ordered drinks, did not receive menus. Didn't know menus are only available thru QR code because no one mentioned it or even where to find menus.. Overheard it (while waiting forever for water and coffee) from another waitress who sat the table long after us. Coffee was bitter and couldn't eat pancakes - no flavor at all beyond bread. Syrup was watered down so much, it was no longer sweet nor represented maple flavor. If food was good, I could easily overlook the service. But food was below a 1 star rating except for the bacon, which was a 10. Menu says "all items ordered will remain on your check" so my advice is don't bother complaining, just pay the bill and don't return.

Basic, bland food for high end price. They are also famous for hair in food. No reason to go there ever again.

We went to The Sweet Spot on a Friday morning around 10am. We were greeted quickly and placed a to-go order at the counter. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. We had an omelet, Nashville Scrambler Breakfast Bowl, and basic scrambled eggs and bacon. We enjoyed everything. The Breakfast Bowl had Nashville hot sauce which was so good. It had a sweet element and smoky spicy ness to follow. The restaurant is a small place but so homey and relaxing. Lots of soft lighting as well. Can't wait to try other menu items.

I just recently came to this restaurant and their service was terrible. The staff were very unorganized. The hostess at the front watched me & my mom stand at the front of the door without a greeting or anything. it's so much more i can go on about so much more but then I would become an author. I will not be returning ever again.

Great service! Great food! DISAPPOINTED they no longer accept Clover where you could receive $5.00 off the current meal from your previous meal payment. 50 points = $5.00 off. I have 500 points. I hate shitty changes.

They were completely rude to my family who came for a pick up. They did not disclose that there's gratuities for a pick up order. They asked where the tip came from and the manager instantly got upset and said he will no be issuing her a refund because they did not dine In

Amelia had great customer service but the food and the flies are RIDICULOUS. I shouldn't have to fight the flies away from my food and even the waitress know it . One said i know they are bad like wtf . The food has no seasoning like you should cook the grits longer until they are popping on the stove . Then i heard the guy in the kitchen talking crap about a customer that came through the door

First time visiting the place. The food and presentation could've been better. Doubt I would return.

went to the sweet spot for a solo breakfast this morning and it was absolutely amazing! jana was my server and she was very kind and attentive, the food was great, and it wasn't too loud and distracting while i enjoyed my food even for a saturday afternoon. 10/10 recommend!

Food was good. Potatoes didn't have any seasoning. Omelets only come with egg and cheese. Everything else is a .65-.90 cent add on. Tea was amazing! There was no wait and the waiter was nice. I would stick to the pancakes, waffles, and French toast though.

Was in Concord running errands and wanted a good hearty breakfast. So decided to try them out. Wait was over 30min since such a small place and was pretty crowded. I got the omelette/pancake combo. Was very good but I do wish they had hot syrup in a bottle instead of packets of cold syrup. Hot would have definitely made the pancake better. My waitress was very friendly and attentive.

Love this spot across from our neighborhood. Their coffees are top notch and the staff is always friendly and personable. A laid back feel with great food.

Amylia. Amylia, AMYLIA!!! Absolutely amazing and such a welcomed experience. The food is almost as good lol. Jk, the food is fresh, full of flavor, and portioned just right. Today marks the 3rd day in a row (kitchen is under construction at home) and I'm sure it will be the start of many many more. They have a big projection screen which plays cartoons for the littles and another tv that can match or put something else on. Perfect setting to sit and digest the amazing meal while enjoying friendly banter with anyone in ear shot. Absolutely love this place! See y'all again soon!!

Get an omelette and the home fries. That's it. That's the post. Just kidding... but seriously, I've come to this place for years and I think they have some of the best omelettes. The service is sometimes hit or miss, but they are extremely generous with their omelette fillings (meat and veggies). The portion size is huge and I always have leftovers. The home fries are also some of the best. Again, generous portion size and they are seasoned well with peppers and onions. It's a kid friendly type of restaurant and can get busy on weekends so get there at a good time.

Love The Sweet Spot! It's our regular Saturday morning breakfast place. One complaint- please bring back grits on the weekend!! Southerners need their grits on Saturday morning! Y'all rock!

The service today was absolutely horrible. The second time and the last time I will be here. First, we were not properly greeted. The waitress did not come back and check on our table to see if we need napkins, or silver ware. We ordered the breakfast sandwich only to find out that we had to pay separately for everything to go on the sandwich. Penny pinch is what this spot remind me of. On top of this they charged gratuity for just a party of 4 people. It not about the money but just the service was not very welcoming. If you say breakfast sandwiches you are thinking meat egg and cheese altogether. Very deceitful. BE WARE!

1st timer, customer service was on point and out waitress, Violet was so sweet, the ambiance and cleanliness was impeccable, the food came fast and was delicious, I ate all of it. I will be returning. This is a great Sweet Spot for breakfast. Sue

Business doesn't accept tap to pay as a payment method. Came to eat and left at the door because my money is not accepted

I very much enjoyed my meal. CFsteak was very tasty, my eggs were perfect, the grits were very well prepared. My server, Amelia, I think, could not have been kinder or more helpful. I really enjoyed this place and will go again prior to golf at Skybrook.

Sweet Spot: NOT SO SWEET! Food was not good at all, but the worst part was the manager/owner. My daughter ordered a waffle. It came out hard/overcooked AND cold. She asked for chocolate chips that would not even melt on the hard waffle. We spoke to the waitress (quite nice btw), who took it back but clearly came back with the same cardboard like waffle (btw chips were still not melted). So clearly food safety codes are not their thing since they supposedly reheated it (not in the microwave), so for clarity a dish that had been tasted at the table went back in from the customer and was placed in a cooking vessel (gross!). When the waitress came back she said "I'm sorry they said that's just how the waffles are" to which I asked, "cold?" The manager came out and said nothing was wrong with the waffle and that he wasn't going to make another one. It took everything in my power not to walk out. What a disappointing experience. This used to be a nice place Would never come back to this dump, specifically because the owner was a complete jerk. And to boot a cup of luke warm tea was almost 4 bucks and their "fruit cup" (also nearly 4 bucks) was completely out of season, hard and spoiled. SAVE YOUR MONEY. DO NOT EAT HERE!!!! There is a Biscuttville not too far away. Wish we had had fast food or stayed home. This nightmare meal was almost $40 for a waffle, fruit cup, tea and Ruben.

The first place I had ever been to and I didn't have to add any pepper/ salt to my eggs or grits! So delicious; very busy establishment which says a lot about their food and customer service! Our waitress was very nice I rated it an 8/10 and my husband 7.5/10.

The Sweet Spot could not have had a better name! It has totally become a staple in my rotation. I have breakfast here 2-3 times a week and absolutely love the small and local vibe. The food is delicious and the service is great, especially if you get Madison or Amelia! What a gem for the Concord community!

You need to be a regular to understand the business model. If they get it right they are 5...the servers strive for a 5... the kitchen screws them up. Better expediting would increase positive reviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Manager are you reading????

Tried this spot for the 1st time. Our servers name was Amylia. She welcomed my family in and sat us right away. She was very cheerful and friendly. The menu had lots of choices. I went with the Pork Roll sandwich and a side of French toast. They hit the spot. Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Thank you , we will be back again.

Busy for a Sunday Brunch and a bit of wait but worth it. Went last Sunday from Brunch and while it was busy and we had to wait a bit, they did an excellent job of moving things so the wait was totally tolerable and understood. We were seated promptly and given our menu's and our server came back shortly but we had still not digested the menu items. We did not realize they do not served a Lunch Menu of Sunday which was a disappointment for my wife who was looking forward to Meatloaf. Stick with the Breakfast Menu. I had the Biscuits and Gravy which were good but not outstanding. Biscuits had a bit of doughy consistency and the gravy was very neutral. The Hash browns which were my side were good but would have like them to be cooked a bit more on the flat top. Should have asked that myself up from. Wife enjoyed the Waffle with Blueberries and the side of Bacon was good. It's really a good place from Brunch if a traditional Brunch is what you are looking for. Will have to go back some other time and try a Lunch Menu so my wife can have her Meatloaf

Service was fantastic and food was great. We had a family group of 6 and we got a variety of brunch options on a Sunday. Our server Stacey, was fun, attentive, and took great care of us. A couple of us got omelets, which were nicely filled with our selected fillings. My wife got Avocado Toast, which was very fresh and tasty, topped with scrambled eggs. The two kids in our group got waffles with banana and strawberries, along with some toast and hash browns. They gobbled it all up! A few of us also got the home fries. They are tasty with a decent mix of veggies added. The serving sizes of these was huge! We really enjoyed it and there are lots of coffee and ice cream options if you're in that mood.

To start off, if you want good food. You're better off going to the hospital cafeteria. For the money spent, you might as well have cooked at home. My boyfriend and I wanted something new for breakfast/brunch. We both got shredded hash browns with our meals, and they were tasteless. No seasoning. No crisp or crunch. They felt fake as hell. The scrambled eggs on his sandwich were flat and nasty. I ordered a iced latte with double shot to make it less milky. They literally brought me caramel flavored milk. It was whiter than my ass. I just kindly let her know it wasn't my preference if I could get it taken off and she told me that they couldn't take it off but get me something else. So I paid $5 a plain cup of coffee , since I was worried about getting a specialty drink. The waitress otherwise was super nice and attentive. The sweet host and our waitress was the best part of the visit. Everything else was a 0 out of 10.

The Sweet Spot is my neighborhood go to for breakfast. Can't miss with anything on the menu. And ask for Amylia... She'll take great care of you and encourage you with her smile and words. It's like breakfast therapy!

This was our last meal in Concord since our vacation was coming to an end. Service was good. Prompt, friendly (bordering too much chit-chat), attentive. The atmosphere is that of a regular diner; nothing unique that stands out. Definitely a little dirtier than I'd prefer (my youngest dropped her sunglasses onto the floor under our table; they landed in a pile of old eggs). I love a good, strong, fresh cup of coffee - especially in the morning. After taking a sip of my coffee, and then my salty ice water, I looked at my eldest and said: "if the food is anything like the drinks, we're screwed." Lol. The coffee was weak to say the least. It literally tasted as though old grounds had been run through several times over until there was nothing left to brew from them. Breakfast took a while to be served which is a bit unexpected considering there were only 3 total tables and the chicken tenders, biscuit and gravy were obviously premade/prepped and likely came frozen. Overall the food wasn't bad, but it wasn't great for sure. This is run of the mill, basic, you-can-make-this-at-home, breakfast. I will say the scrambled eggs were really good, but the over-medium were way overdone. If you visit with the right expectations, you won't be disappointed.

The cookie butter crepe is delicious! The service was excellent and staff were so kind.

The food is Awesome! Alycia ,I think was her name, was so friendly and helpful with my takeout that I'll be returning for a sit down! Glad I happened in for breakfast takeout!

We have frequented this place a lot over the years, and I hate to leave this review. Twice in a row we have had a horrible experience. Several weeks ago we came in and waited forever to even be acknowledged. Today, we were never acknowledged. We were sat and no one bothered to come by our table. We got up and left. Do better, Sweet Spot!

A basic inexpensive breakfast in a small shopping plaza. The usual tasty breakfast menu with no surprises.

My boyfriend and I were first timers . When we came in we were told to seat ourselves and we chose a booth in the back. Amylia was our server she was great and had a fun energy. She was prompt and attentive and very helpful as I am an indecisive person. The drinks came out quick she then took our orders in quickly and it felt like no time before our food came out and it was great we both got the big eaters breakfast. I had the French toast with strawberries and it was great I am very particular about my French toast. Everything else was delicious as well and very filling. Price was just right. Thank you for being a great host amylia we may just become regulars. Also a very comfortable atmosphere.

I often like to write reviews while I'm in the space. Sitting here at The Sweet Spot and enjoying brunch with my daughters. It's a cozy little place in Concord with very friendly people. Nothing makes a restaurant better than having great customer service. They weren't too busy this Friday morning but most people are actually working right now. I had the French toast with a side of bacon and home fries. Did I like it you're wondering??? Yes I did. It's just something about a place that can cook french toast just right...then the home fries were hot and fresh as they should be. It reminds me of a place you for when you don't want to cook but you want something tasty but not pricey. Not only do they have food but bagels, muffins and the one thing I live for each morning, a variety of coffees. If I had to try one. Caramel macchiato and a White chocolate mocha, yes I am a serious coffee drinker. Yes indeed the specialty coffee was on point, might have Starbucks beat and I'm a huge Starbucks fan. Overall, great space, lovely staff, and delicious food!! Stop by and give it a try.

We ventured over to The Sweet Spot one morning for breakfast, having a craving for both good coffee and hash browns. They are a bit of a hike for us, but the trip was well worth it. I had the Perfect Breakfast, with scrambled eggs (adding cheddar), hash browns, and a biscuit. My husband had an omelet with home fries and a biscuit. Both of our breakfasts were yummy. The biscuits were soft and fluffy, the hash browns were both soft and crispy (and no extra seasoning needed!), and the potatoes were nicely flavored with peppers. Their lattes were similarly good. We ordered two regulars with an extra shot (three shots all told), and no syrup. They were piping hot, strong, and delicious. Service was fast and friendly. We'll definitely return!

Amelia providing great customer service today! I love this sweet savory breakfast spot.

The service was extremely slow and terrible. 50 minutes of waiting in a non full restaurant only to receive cold burnt toast I didn't order and wasn't able to change along with disgusting hash brown and an overall mediocre breakfast in general...... Customers beware

First of all they wouldn't even give me a hard copy of a menu, only offered the QR code I could scan but my phone was dead. Service was terrible took close to 2 hours, and then they tried to add 20% gratuity for a party of 4 adults and 1 small child who didn't even eat. That would've been fine if the service and food was good. Piss poor restaurant.

Service sucks, but reading reviews beforehand we expected it. After being seated no one came to our table. Another couple came and immediately had a server, ordered drinks and even food by the time we got one. Oh and we only got a server because we asked. I was hungry and wasn't in the mood to wait and see how long we would be ignored so after a while I asked. After asking then we got one. Food comes out and my husband was not impressed with anything. Cheese on the grits wasn't melted, just was sitting on top. The French toast was doughy and didn't seem all the way cooked. I got the egg, ham and cheese crepe, it was okay after I added syrup. Ordered a mimosa and that was the best part of the meal! One of the servers spilled a whole drink on a person at the table next us and gave a lackluster apology. The service turned out to be ok, food was not good and we won't be returning.

I'd love to know what the food tastes like here but alas no, they don't want to serve me anything. I walked in, the girl told me to pick a seat. The wife and I picked a booth to one side of the room. We watched the two servers walk around serving the other tables. When they walked past us I made sure to look at their face and at one point said hi to the older one... but nothing... I watched another couple come in. The girl that told us to seat ourselves went over to them and started chatting with them, looks like took a drink order, but still nothing... never came to say anything to us... we left after a while. Would not recommend this place for the lack of service. We ended up at First Watch, seated and served very quickly there.

I really wanted to give this place a good review because it's so close to where I live! We got seated pretty quickly on a Sunday morning even though there was a lot of people there. We noticed there were 2 flies buzzing around inside, which really grossed me out. We got OJ and Apple juice and our server was quick in bringing them out. I got the steak and eggs and my friend got the omelette. I asked for medium rare steak- it was rare on one end and medium at the other as though it was cooked over an uneven flame. The rye toast already had butter on it- I would have preferred doing that myself so I could control the amount of butter I want. The eggs were cooked well. My friend didn't really enjoy his omelette, didn't really like how it was cooked. I would go to another place for breakfast- there's tons of places near concord mills which are far better and still fairly close.
