10 Diners That Serve Breakfast and Lunch
Diners are usually defined as local, hidden gems and should leave you so full you feel like you're about to pop. They serve up a combination of breakfast, lunch, and dinner, stay open late hours, and often offer some of the best American food classics around. That's right, these diners are loaded with your favorite things for every meal time: pancakes, waffles, biscuits and gravy, cheeseburgers, french fries, fried chicken, milkshakes ... and the list goes on. What's better than supporting your local community and eating food like grandma makes? Nothing - so visit these establishments next time you're feeling like having a home cooked meal, and be thankful they exist in the Charlotte Food Scene.
