This soul food restaurant in Charlotte ranks No. 1 for fried chicken in NC

A Charlotte soul food spot has earned statewide bragging rights. Mr. Charles Chicken & Fish now ranks as the No. 1 fried chicken restaurant in North Carolina, according to Tasting Table. FULL STORY: Best fried chicken joint? This Charlotte restaurant ranks No. 1 in NC Here are key takeaways: Tasting Table published the rankings Oct. 30. The food and drink website drew on Reddit posts, online reviews, awards and press coverage to pick the top fried chicken joint in each state. Mr. Charles Chicken & Fish started two decades ago on Statesville Avenue. It operates multiple restaurants in Charlotte, and the uptown location on Dalton Avenue got the nod. Michael Rhynes Sr., who helped open the restaurant, told CharlotteFive in 2024 that the business builds relationships with customers. “We try to get to know everybody. I watched kids grow from being six, seven years old. Now they’re in college.” The restaurant’s namesake chicken appears in dishes such as chicken dinners and a gizzard appetizer.

Charlotte's airport has an approved new airline deal

Charlotte City Council approved a new Airline Use and Lease Agreement (AULA) for Charlotte Douglas International Airport and its signatory airlines. Why it matters: The new deal, which begins on Jan. 1, 2027, keeps the signatory airlines around for the next 10 and a half years and allows for a five-year extension. CLT's signatory airlines are American, Delta, Frontier, Southwest and United. Driving the news: Council approved the AULA Monday night in an 8-2 vote. Council members JD Mazuera Arias and Reneé Perkins Johnson voted against it. More than 50 people signed up to speak to address council. Some advocated for the deal and some against. Advocates from Atrium Health, Novant Health, Trane Technologies, Charlotte Area Chamber of Commerce, North Carolina Restaurant and Lodging Association, Charlotte Regional Business Alliance and local business owners — some of whom have a presence at the airport — advocated for the deal. The other side: But the people who told council members they "keep the airport running" said they don't feel seen or heard. They asked council to delay their vote on the AULA. State law does not allow the city to intervene in subcontractor pay . " We've gotta take this fight to

FORT MILL — Downtown Fort Mill is home to a mix of places to grab a bite to eat or find a gift for a friend.
