Haberdish

Charlotte, NC · $$

Haberdish is a mill town southern kitchen and craft cocktail bar. We serve up southern inspired food centered around the history of our mill town of North Charlotte (now known as NoDa) – including those ingredients, cooking techniques (pickling, smoking, frying, of course!), and deliciously-modernized recipes from grandma’s garden and kitchen. With late 1800s and early 1900s migrations from the Appalachian Mountains and rural piedmont of North Carolina, you’ll find we have regional influences in our dishes as well, and we’re bringing touches of that cuisine forward to you. Here, you'll find the best fried chicken in town, along with southern staples like homemade pickles, fresh biscuits, NC trout, sweet potatoes, roasted vegetables, smoked meat, and homemade desserts, all served up like a potluck family gathering with all of your favorites. And don't forget something to wash it down! Our full bar offers up options like pre-prohibition craft cocktails with an apothecary touch, private barrel spirits, and carefully selected champagne to pair perfectly with your fried chicken. Hungry yet? The Haberdish bar is always first come first served and walk-ins are welcome in our dining room as well -- or skip the line and make a reservation below. However you choose to join us, we can't wait to serve you soon!

“10/10 recommend! This is a Michelin starred restaurant for a reason! I’m thankful the yelp reviews lead me here after a long travel day. I got seated right away and the experience was amazing. We started with the hush puppies and trout dip and right away I knew I picked the right place. The hush puppies come with a homemade sweet tea butter and listen it’s amazing! The cocktails were chef kiss from their lemon drop to the death metal kitten cocktail! The sides are shared so we went with Mac and Brussels. The Brussels will leave you craving more and the Mac is an amazing choice. The chicken is award winning either option you can’t go wrong with. Buuttttt let me tell you about the dessert!! The banana pudding would have me up there weekly for my fix if i lived there. The compote on the brown butter cake was delicious too. Everything about this place yelled amazing. The lights are lowly lit and makes for the perfect date night spot. It wasn’t too loud but the music added a nice touch. It’s a must try.”

“@haberdish Southern comfort food executed perfectly. Champagne tenders - impressively crispy with a slightly sweet breading. Regular tenders - classic tender. Still crispy breading, however, more chicken, less breading on this one. Sweet potato dumplings were nice and warm. Comforting. Great flavor. Softer than expected Mac and cheese - best mac and cheese ever, hands down Brussel sprouts - crispy and full of flavor. @lustymonkmustard brings the flavor here… This is absolutely a must visit restaurant!”

“Excellent experience! Everything on the menu looked so good; we had to order practically everything lol First, the ambiance - such a cute location and nice, clean, modern and kind of upscale vibe. Now, the food. I really enjoyed every dish! Each dish had its own unique flavor and the portions were great for sharing. If you're a vegetarian, you will be able to find a lot of great options here! Out of everything my party ordered, I took delight in the sweet potato dumplings and fried oysters mushrooms (chef special) the most. The sweet potato dumplings were subtle and super soft. One of their must-eat dishes here is the fried chicken and champagne chicken tenders. Not bad, but I personally would not order them again because they lacked flavor/seasoning. However, they do come with sauces. The champagne tenders were huge! A lot of batter on them. Chicken was very moist, just wish they had more flavor haha Great place for date night, big party, or just a solo night out in town. Our server was great. She was impressed with how much we ordered! Each table has a bottle of their homemade (I think) hot sauce which I felt added a great kick to every bite!”

“Had a date night dinner here before catching a show and it had been a while since our last visit. We are so happy that we did because it was all so yummy and intentionally prepared! Max was our server and was amazing from cocktail recommendations to assisting with dietary needs & top notch service! We had super delicious vegan version of the fried cauliflower from Chef Aiden who was eager to recreate an option for us to be able to have the same quality experience. It meant so much to us to have the same quality, well thought out creative dish as a foodie who can oftentimes be limited. The pickle plate was fire, along with everything else that we had and we love that they support local farmers for sourcing. Head in for some great drinks of all varietals, delicious food and great service-ask for Max!”

“4.5/5 ⭐ — Haberdish is a stylish spot that delivers a really enjoyable take on Southern cuisine. From the moment we walked in, the space stood out. Beautiful, warm, and thoughtfully designed. We ordered the Cast Iron Trout Sandwich and the Seasonal Chicken Sandwich, along with a Cucumber Salad on the side. Everything was fresh and well-prepared. Simple flavors done right. We also tried the Banana Pudding, which gets a lot of attention, and it was good. But the real standout for us was the PB&J appetizer with thick, crispy bacon. That combination was incredible. Sweet, savory, and just over the top in the best way. Service was solid, and prices felt reasonable for the quality and atmosphere. Overall, a great experience and a place we’d happily return to.”
