A food and beer hall known for serving up Southern fare is leaving Charlotte.
The Eagle Charlotte is closing its location at 2120 South Blvd., #1, in South End, the restaurant said via Instagram. Its final service will be sometime next week.
“This community has been our heart, and we are so grateful for every meal shared, every laugh across the table, and every friendship formed within these walls,” the restaurant posted on Friday, Sept. 12. “We invite you to stop by in the coming days to celebrate, reminisce, and enjoy one last taste of what has made The Eagle so special.”
