As a foodie transplant from the West Coast, walking into Reid's immediately reminded me of a beloved high-end grocer back home--something along the lines of Draeger's: beautifully curated, family-owned, and designed to feel like a destination rather than just a place to shop. There's a real sense of history here. From what I understand, Reid's is one of the oldest grocers in Charlotte, and that legacy shows in the details. The rich green tile, classic signage, and thoughtfully designed layout create an elevated, almost European-style market experience. It feels polished, intentional, and welcoming all at once. What stands out: * The store is beautifully merchandised and carefully curated with specialty and seasonal items you don't always find elsewhere. * The wine bar and café concept make this more than a grocery stop--it's a place to linger. I've enjoyed flights, tastings, and brunch on the patio, and each visit has felt like a small occasion. * Location-wise, it really depends on which store you're visiting. The SouthPark and Myers Park locations have easy, convenient parking, and there's also a newer location in Ballantyne (near Pineville). The Uptown locations, while not necessarily "easy parking," are incredibly walkable--perfect if you live, work, or have meetings nearby. If you're already Uptown, this is a fantastic stop to pick up elevated items for a beautiful dinner--think wine, specialty cheeses, or even something indulgent like caviar to round things out. One thing I appreciate is that Reid's doesn't try to be everything to everyone. It's not an organic-focused market like Whole Foods, and that's okay--it serves a different purpose. The clientele here tends to be people looking for specialty ingredients, elevated prepared foods, and a more curated shopping experience. Many shoppers probably visit both stores depending on their needs, and I find myself doing the same. When Reid's really shines: During the holidays and special seasons. Their selection of unique, festive, and hard-to-find items makes it a go-to for entertaining or finding something a little extra special. Overall, Reid's feels like a true Charlotte institution--elegant, distinctive, and consistently well executed. It's the kind of place that makes grocery shopping feel enjoyable again, and I'm looking forward to continuing to explore more of what they offer as I keep eating my way through Charlotte. Bottom line: A beautifully curated local market with history, charm, and a destination-worthy wine bar--perfect for specialty shopping, brunch, and seasonal finds. read more

We found this gem off Selwyn and was pleasantly surprised! "Almost Half price" Tuesdays charcuterie board and vino specials was fantastic. Clientele is a bit older and certainly not a loud crowd. read more

This review is mainly for their brunch. They have a great menu with a lot of options for food and drinks. Our server was so nice and helpful giving us other options when our drink we wanted had ran out. I ordered the French toast and it was delicious. I love the big patio when the weather is great. read more

Today was half-price burger Tuesday. Lunch specials are available from 11 am according to their web site. The grill was not even turned on or prepared at 11 am. Ordered two burgers medium rare, required over fifteen minutes, even though ours was the first order if the day. The burgers were badly overcooked, dry, gray, and flavorless. Pimiento cheese spread was similarly flavorless. French fries were nothing special. For a daily special lunch item, this was a huge failure. Better burgers can be had at other nearby restaurants. read more

Reid's is a great grocery store in Charlotte for high quality food. They have items of their own brand as well as other popular items. My absolute favorite are the lady fingers, a must buy! Reid's also has sit down dining with a great selection of food. Service is great and a good casual dining experience. Looking forward to my next visit to Reid's! read more

Food, service and atmosphere is always impeccable. The wait staff has always been more than accommodating and pleasurable. We are constantly in there (3 or more times a week) and have never had an issue with anything. We enjoy the neighborhood feel and how welcoming everyone is. I highly recommend Reid's Myers park. read more

Reid's Fine Foods - Great wine choices. At alllll prices. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I had the pleasure of attending a ticketed holiday wine tasting event at the bar. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable and the tasting came with a made to order Philly cheesesteak. Only down side abt the location is the parking lot is small and can certainly be a challenge depending on the time of day. The bar does do weekly specials like half off wine glasses etc, great place to go and relax after work or on a wkend. Perfect for girls night, date or solo outing. read more

Honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had... literally putting this review up as the plate is being taken away

So disappointed with the catering I ordered to pick up for my bookclub. First, the automated system sent me an invoice with the wrong pickup date so I had to call and email to learn that they are fully aware that their automated system routinely sends out erroneous information, yet they didn't think to follow up with an email that would inform me of that. Second, when I went to pick up my order, the two employees at the counter had absolutely no idea what to do when someone enters their store to pick up a catering order. Third, much of the food was inedible. The Spinach Artichoke Dip tasted like it had gone bad ~ even my omnivore husband wouldn't eat it. And the hummus was tasteless. I ordered catering because I'm not a good cook ~ but even I could prepare more palatable food than this! read more

"We can't express enough gratitude to David Schmidt at Reid's Myers Park for his outstanding customer service! He went above and beyond to help us put together the perfect gift and ensured it was delivered promptly. His kindness and attention to detail truly made a difference. Thank you, Reid's Fine Foods Myers Park, and especially David Schmidt, for such a wonderful experience. We highly recommend them! Thank you, Dalia Harrison read more

Pretty disappointed.... Both my water glass and wine glass were dirty, both had dried chunks of stuff stuck to the glass and one even had lip prints on it. I also ordered the Chicken Caesar Wrap and it didn't come as requested but I ate it since they all seemed pretty busy. The only reason I'm giving two stars is because the Caesar dressing and the chicken itself were very good. Unfortunately, I don't see myself returning to Reid's in the future. read more

Food quality well below expectations, prices are way to high. I ordered a cold club sandwich and received a cold, grilled club sandwich with cherry tomato, chopped Romaine, sliced tomato with the core. Fruit salad was old and slimy, just not good for $30.00 at lunch. Tried to contact the store, no answer, emails unanswered as well. Will not return read more

Great little neighborhood restaurant and bar and is the "go to" place on Wednesday evening when wine is half-priced. The food is always excellent and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend! read more

I just love this place! Always the most friendly staff in the bar! Mark, Sam, Olivia, and Lisa are literally the friendliest people - they seem to know everyone by name by the time you leave! 10/10 for sure read more

This is your stop for premium food options. I can't add much else to what others have said except you will pay a premium price. It's very cramped and small in certain areas so you can't get in the coolers if there is someone in the aisle. They don't put prices on all the items. The lines at the cashier is long and slow. They don't check the coffee dispenser so you may pay for a cup and not find out there is no coffee. They do have a good sized parking area in the rear. read more

Perfect spot for lunch or dinner. We are there every Wednesday night for the wine special and the staff is both friendly and attentive. Sam makes great food. You can NEVER go wrong with the burger. The staff in the restaurant, Mark, Olivia and Lisa are always welcoming. It is a great neighborhood spot that welcomed us when we moved in 3 years ago. Always nice to know the staff by name and be able to carry on a conversation other than, "Hi, how are you." They take time to get to know their customers. read more

I would be seriously surprised if anyone ever bought more than two bags worth of groceries here at Reid's. This place is all about the specialty foods and they have that in buckets. The deli counter is drool-worthy with sliced ribeye and prepared salads. The meat counter is loaded with bone-in t-bones and racks of lamb, veal chops and bacon. If you're looking to have a head start on your meal, their marinated pork tenderloin looks amazing. Need some twice-baked potatoes or a chicken pot pie? Oh, my! Lots of sauces and spices and snacks and things to make a very nice picnic or a full meal. I'm amazed. We found quite a lot here and did some serious damage. The burgers I made with their ground beef were amazing. [Review 10236 overall, 1824 of 2018.] read more

We had brunch at Reid's last Sunday! Not only was the food great, but we were so impressed with our wait staff! We especially loved the attention we received from Walt! He was a dear young man and completely compassionate and kind to all of us. Reid's is lucky to have such a devoted worker and personable employee! Makes everything more special!! We hope people remember good reviews are just as important as negative ones!!!! Kindness is contagious. Thanks Walt! Good luck with your future!!! You will do well in all your endeavors! read more

Went for dinner with a friend on Wednesday which is 1/2 price burger night!!! Loved every minute sitting at the bar, watching our food being prepared and sipping wine! Burger and fries were both delectable and a steal for 9.99! Highly recommend read more

Reid's Fine Foods - Burger and truffle fries - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I've looked around in two of the Reid's locations and everyone was friendly and gracious. The first time I visited, I walked around to scope out the market offerings, which range from prepared foods, deli meats, butcher meats that can be packed up and taken home to cook, and grocery items. The second time, I wanted to try their famous steak burger made with ground meat from three different cuts of steak. My folks and I were seated promptly around 2 or 3 PM, an ideal time to visit when it wasn't super busy. Our waitress was pleasant and put in our order promptly. During the pandemic, they used folding screens to divide tables for social distancing and placed high tables by the bar to social distance bar patrons from the bartender. Burgers took about 12-15 minutes I would say. Many had raved about the truffle fries, which my dad and I got. My mom went with a side salad. Wow. The burger was tender, very flavorful and not salty or over seasoned. The bun was not too bready and the fries had enough truffle seasoning without overpowering the fries. Not a cheap offering, but the waitress did share that they do half price burgers on Tuesdays - I'd definitely give that a try next time I'm in the area. The also sell the patties for their steak burgers so you could grill them up at home - a great option if you can't dine in or want to make the burgers at home without the fries and what not. I'd come back for the burger or any time I'd like to check out their counters. read more

I've never bought a full bag of groceries at Reid's. Strictly specialty and since its near my home, easy-peasy. Expect crowded parking full of luxury cars (I feel like I need to detail mine before I visit), and prices to match. However, nice selection of prepared foods either at the deli, or in the frozen section--all locally sourced, too. Nice little selection of quality cheeses, chips, dips, desserts, and a full wine section (almost nothing under $20/bottle--Harris Teeter it's not). Looking for something unique, tasty, and upscale? Reids. Myers Park. Give 'em a whirl. read more

Eat here often, good food, nice little spot. Friendly staff. Mark is great behind the bar and manages to keep it under control. It's a busy location and it's gets crazy but it's worth the wait! Highly recommend Tuesday night for a burger at a half price! read more

Inviting and yummy. Casual and fun. Manager Mark is THE BEST!!!! He is knowledgeable about all Reid's has to offer. Kind and helpful, you'll always get the right choice for you, whether it's wine, beer or food. read more

Reid's is one of my favorite places to eat out with my daughter. Mark, works the bar, has gotten to know my daughter, who has Down Syndrome, and is so nice to her. Sam, the cook, knows what Molly (my daughter) always wants, and recites it yo her before we even sit down. They treat us like family and make us feel very welcome. Molly and I eat there 1 to 2 times a week... our favorite place in Charlotte . Danny and Molly Stewart read more

Great Sunday brunch. The food was delicious. Their chocolate chip pancakes were a huge hit with the grandchildren (I will be going back to order them for myself). Oyster po'boy was excellent. The best part was the check; Reid's gives you lots of value for your money. read more

I can't imagine having the urge (or the bank account) to do any significant amount of grocery shopping at Reid's, but for a specialty item or lunch from the deli counter, I'm all in! I stopped by with a friend on a whim today. We were trying to get a lobster roll from Clean Catch across the street but they were sold out. We arrived around 12:30pm and were surprised there wasn't a huge crow or long line. I hemmed and hawed over their sandwich offerings and finally ordered a tuna melt. But wait! As soon as I wandered down the aisle and saw the curry chicken salad, I had order envy. I asked to sub the tuna with chicken salad and the guy behind the counter obliged me with a smile. By the time I grabbed a bag of hummus chips and a bai drink, my sandwich was ready. $18 for the haul, is on the pricier side but the sandwich was super tasty and very filling. read more

I stopped by here on a Saturday afternoon to grab a quick bite. I have never been here before but have seen some pictures on IG. The place was clean and the food looked really fresh. I ordered a salmon BLT to go. Every request I made they happily granted. One request was that they warm up the salmon as I hate cold meats. The sandwich was really good I have to say. While my sandwich was being prepared I walked around the store. Wow the prices are a bit, wil more like quite a bit, more than I would pay. read more

Do yourself a favor and head to Reid's on a Tuesday for a half priced steak burger. $7.50 including a side (their fries are to die for) and the burger is massive. I recommend that you go early (starts at 5 PM for dinner) or towards kitchen closing because it gets really packed in there for this deal. Other than that, Reid's is a solid local grocer carrying many local products. This location also has an awesome wine collection. Great place to pop in for a sandwich or to grab the essentials for making a cheese board. They also have a wide selection of their signature gift baskets for sale. Very cozy and neighborhood vibe in here and lots of regulars. Only a few tables on their small patio, so if you're looking to sit outside I would say head to their South Park location instead. read more

Such a cute store full of so many local flavors of Charlotte. This place triples as a cafe, a small grocery store and a sweet shop. It seems as if most stuff is made in house or sourced locally. I noticed they have Jenni's Ice Cream here which is very popular in Charlotte. They also have local honey's, teas, etc. Very cool, gourmet grocery store. Love it! read more
