Stockyard Restaurant - Pot roast with green beans and collard greens. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Stopped in for lunch on a rainy Friday and the place was still packed. Great food and service like this will make anyone come out in the rain. I ordered the lunch special fried chicken with two side and a drink. Before I could finish ordering, it was out (freaky fast) and they are pretty fast about getting you situated. read more

Local dinner that feels like your coming home . You instantly feel welcomed .The food was great id come here every day if it was close i just happen to be in the area . read more

The good: I received a good portion for the price that I paid around seven dollars for breakfast . It's a clean restaurant with the simple decor. I will visit there again at some point The other: I suppose it's not much to complain about . I ordered the corn beef hash breakfast and asked that the corn beef hash be cooked a little crunchy. It was delivered as a patty and had little to no crunchy parts. I only bring that up because the way that I cook it I kind of sear the meat a bit to wear it is a little crunchy or more specifically has little crunchy pieces in it which appears to cook was unable to duplicate or replicate. The other thing is that they don't open up on Saturdays I asked the waitress why that is . She said because the owner wanted to spend more time with his family . I think he can leave someone else in charge to open up on Saturdays that would be a chill breakfast spot. read more

We ordered the stockyard skillet with overeasy eggs and it was delicious! The potatoes were cooked just right and the mixture of meat and vegetables was great. We also had some pancakes and they made our kids pancakes into the shape of Mickey Mouse. It definitely made our kids happy. The service was really friendly and the food was great. We will be back! read more

The Stockyard is an 'institution '. This is a 'working man's restaurant ', however, one will see a combination of blue collar utility lineman, mechanics, etc. with lawyers and doctors also there. The staff is perfect, just 'home folk', and they will go out of there way to make the customer happy. The food is good ole southern food, and the kitchen staff is comprised of some experienced southern cooks. The quality of food is very good, and the portions are very generous. My only complaint, if it is a complaint, is that the portions are very large. I know, I do not have to eat everything, but it is so good, I do not want to leave anything on the plate. The next time you are there, try the 'chicken and dumplings' or the 'fried flounder'. Also, their Mac and Cheese plus the banana pudding is to die for. If you have to return to work in the afternoon, be sure to have a quiet spot available, as you may need to take a nap. read more

Today my co-workers dragged me to another place that they claimed had "amazing food". I would have to disagree. I ordered the backed chicken special with collards and mac & cheese. Backed chicken didn't seem "baked". It was very fatty and the skin was chewy. I actually had to pull at it like a rubber band. Collards were good 4/5. Mac and cheese was not good. It was cold and most of the cheese that was put into it hadn't even melted yet. My co-workers both got the hamburger steak with 2 sides each and they said it was very good. This must be a southern thing - I never saw hamburger steak on a Menu until I moved to Charlotte. Anyways, the service was pretty good as they checked in with us often and brought us 2-3 refills. Prices were very cheap - if your looking for an inexpensive "home cooked" type meal. Personally, if it's left up to me, I will probably never come here again. But you never know since my coworkers love to go to places like this for a "plate lunch". read more

First time here with my mother and the food was amazing! Comfy little mom and pop restaurant, waitress' were extremely nice and the food came out fast as lighting! read more

Ok I figured this would be ordinary diner food at best but I was wrong! This was fantastic diner food. I had the Breakfast Special for $4.99 which came with two eggs, crispy bacon, home fries and a biscuit. I got lots and lots of perfectly crispy bacon!!!! The home fries were excellent and crisp. The biscuit was large and soft....great great great. I will definitely be back!! read more

See all

Delicious breakfast (I had the veggie skillet with scrambled eggs) generous portions, fast & very friendly service!

Family style diner, catering to a friendly blue collar group over lunch. Lots of options, everything was good.

Amazing. Everything is great. You have to try it. I've had a chicken wrap, fish, salads and much more. Everything is tasty.

I have stopped here for 10 years off and on.i am a trucker and this place is close to a tank wash i go too. They have fried bologna yum.I tried the livermush once. I know it is a local favorite but not for me. I love the home cooking and friendly service. Their is a big lot for tractor trailer parking. Alot of times they are closed when i am in town but today I am definitely going to stop in. 5 stars. read more

Took care of some business just down the road and was needing breakfast. Most places named this are usually pretty good. Stopped in and ordered a mans breakfast of 4 eggs, bacon, sausage, home fries, grits, toast and coffee. Huge servings of potatoes and grits. Staff friendly. Service fast. Food GREAT. Building VERY clean. read more

I'm not a breakfast foodie however this restaurant is by far amazing! Everything was done perfectly to my taste. I tasted everything on everyone's plates. Had to! read more

The breakfast is great and all of the staff is really welcoming and friendly. I haven't tried the lunch menu yet but I definitely plan to return! read more

The wait staff is always courteous and prompt. The prices on the menu are acceptable to the food you receive. The quality of food is excellent and cook very well. I have eaten here several times and have never had a bad meal or dining experience. Wish they were open past 3pm. One of the best breakfast you can get in the area as well. read more

Tasted the grits of my co diner and was just the way i like creamy goodness. Also tasted the kid Mickey mouse pancake. Excellent.

Great breakfast - eggs, scrambles, whatever....all is good- and multiple types of potatoes...nice touch. Service is wonderful and lots of seats....so unlikely to have to wait read more

Very friendly. An older facility but kept clean. Heads up: they do not serve breakfast after 11 during the week.

the best restaurant ever. the service is immaculate and the food is delicious!! if you have never been here or need a good place to regularly go, stockyard is it. i can 100% guarantee you will love it and i wish other restaurants were more like this. read more

Good Diner type food! Very friendly staff! Quick service and a lot of variety on the menu! The only thing I dislike are their hours. They close at 3pm. I wish they stayed open later, even if just on the weekends read more

This is always one of the place u go for lunch when I am nearby. The service are great, food are awesome just like mom's, and the best part is the value for money. The desert is a must try. So far never get disappointed. read more

When you walk into Stockyard, you'll swear you've seen this diner in some movie or tv show. The experienced staff, the brown coffee cups, the pricing, and the portions .... most authentic diner experience in Charlotte for those sick and tired of the retro wannabes. They never let my coffee cup go empty. Hash browns and runny grits for breakfast are a must. read more

New to town and thought about giving this restaurant a go. Great experience, friendly staff and most important delicious food!

Love the food and the atmosphere. I eat here a few days out the week. The staff are exciting and entertaining and always make you feel like a valued customer. Im a huge fan of the breakfast meals. They are portioned just right for hard working men and women who may need the extra love. You also have to try the Big Burger with bacon if you a fan of big juicy burgers. The menu offers an impressive list of foods to fit your needs and mood. Very spacious eating area and can accommodate your entire family. If you are in the city... better yet the state of North Carolina, you should come here to dine. Tell them Jon sent you! read more

Very fast very good! Basic meat and two veggies place but my meal was out in 3 minutes and it was great!

Sit where ever is open. Good meal for the price. I got the big cheeseburger with onion rings. Burger was nice and juicy with that char taste. I would have liked a little more onion rings. They stop serving breakfast at 1100. It was crowded, thats how you know this place is good. Almost all of the patrons were working class males (jeans, boots, high visible jackets, etc). Working man's diner, not really a place to take the family. Give it a try though. read more

I would ride by and the trucks would throw me off, but once I walked in and noticed how friendly the staff is and service I was won. service is great and food is a memory of what Southern Cooking should be. read more

I'm a big fan of this place and I visit stockyard 3-4 times a month and I've yet to have a bad experience with the food here. The service and staff are great people and they make you feel like your in grand ma's kitchen on a Sunday morning. Everyone speaks when you walk in and say goodbye when you leave and with the variety of meals on the menu and super low prices we so reason to visit anywhere else. Places like IHOP and Bob Evans need to take a page out of Stockyards book. When you want good old fashioned service and a hot country breakfast this is a sure hit. read more

This place is outstanding and worth finding! "Kendra" was a great waitress and full of personality and beauty. Will return when I am back in Charlotte. Had breakfast special read more

The breakfast was very good and the portions were very large. The prices are even better. The reason why this place got only three stars was because I wasn't a huge fan of their service. We waited a while before we received menus and the place wasn't even busy yet. Decor was nothing special there's counter seating, booths and tables. Crowd was mostly older people and truck drivers. read more

Amazing food. Amazing service. Great tea. Great waiters. Manager is very nice and caring. Definitely recommend this place

Don't let the location fool you, this is a great spot that has an extensive menu. Their brisket was awesome. Did not like their mashed potato and gravy though. Service was excellent as well. read more

This place is amazing from the service to the food just a reall great hole in the wall.
