Charlotte is quickly becoming one of the most diverse cities in America, with transplants coming from all over the country and immigrants coming from all over the world – especially from European countries.
We decided to put together a list of the top 10 European restaurants in Charlotte (based on Yelp reviews).
They are listed geographically from West to East:
#1 Rí Rá Irish Pub
This place has truly amazing fish and chips, and bangers and mash – and if the weather’s nice, make sure you sit outside on their epic patio right underneath the Hearst Tower.
#2 Big Ben British Pub
Another toss-up between Big Ben and Sir Edmond Halley’s, but Big Ben’s reviews were slightly better.
