Review The People's Market - Charlotte

Clayton Russell
Can a club sandwich be the best sandwich you’ve potentially ever eaten? My answer to that before coming here would have been “no chance“, but that was before eating it here with the sweet potato waffle fries. One of the best deli meals I’ve had in a long time and potentially the best I’ve ever had - and you can check my reviews, I frequent deli’s as often as possible. The atmosphere in here really cool, great vibe with a bar right in the middle. Easy ordering system and super friendly people working here. Not sure what they did to the sandwich, but it was perfect. Can’t recommend this place enough. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have an apple cinnamon donut to eat. 😉

Great place for coffee and pastries. The coffee is really good, and they bake their own pastries on site, and they are excellent. My favorite is the cinnamon roll croissant. On this occasion, I had the pumpkin waffle with brie whipped cream and candied pecans, which was outstanding. So delicious, it was worth the calories spent. It's seasonal, so get it before it's gone. It's a huge place, so it would be easy for families with kids to be able to find seating and room to spread out. Also a great place if you want to get some work done on your laptop. It's refreshing to be able to come here on the weekends and not have to wait in a long line and also be sure to get a seat. There is a large free parking lot across the street. It's also on the light rail line. I've been to other nearby coffee shops where there are always issues with long lines, lack of seating, and lack of parking. And I'm not sure if it's worth it at those places.

Came for the cocktail making class once a month (I believe on the 2nd Saturday). It was a lot of fun. Had a coffee and burger while there. The burger was one of the best I've had in a while. Sweet potato fries are also good. Wasn't impressed with the coffee, but I like mine hot, and the girl made it Iced by mistake. Will try something else next time.

I am so glad my husband recommended this place! Justin, an employee, greeted us when we walked in & gave us all the deets. For those that work remote, this is a perfect place to lunch. Get a Coffee A perfect Meet up spot! This is the coolest place! It is also Black and female owned! The barbecue pizza he recommended was scrumptious! I’m so glad we had a chance to visit! I’m sure I will be back!

This was me and my wife’s first time visiting people’s market and we loved it. We never visited the original but we are glad they are back open now and in the Elizabeth area. This location is perfect and very spacious. The iced lattes we got were great along with the food. Highly recommend visiting this place! Great atmosphere, great food and great vibes. They offer breakfast all day along with lunch food. Breakfast is my favorite food so I’m glad to see a nice variety of it. Overall, we loved it and will return back for sure.

The standard American breakfast should always include some form of eggs and grits. The People’s Market is a place I've always seen but never knew existed. Their breakfast was so good. Fluffy scrambled eggs. The grits were thick and creamy, and I only needed to add a pinch of pepper. The chicken biscuit is also a great eat. A tender juicy thigh on a fluffy biscuit. I will gladly add The People’s Market to my list of breakfast spots. #GratuityAdded #breakfast  #foodie #instafood  #brunch  #foodblogger #foodstagram #homemade #instagood #thepeoplesmarket #breakfastideas #goodmorning #elizabeth #morning  #breakfasttime #eggs #healthybreakfast #grits #cltfoodie #fyp   #goodeats #instafood  #foodstagram   #foodblogger #charlottefood   #clteats  #queencity  #charlotteeats  #charlottefoodscene #exploreclt  #eatdrinkclt #cltfoodbloggers

Pretty good spot with a creative menu and unique food combinations. The sriracha bacon is absolutely insane btw! They serve coffee, sandwiches, wine, pizza, bakery items, etc., and it’s a very relaxed atmosphere with a good playlist running. Perfect for a quick bite, studying, or catching up with a friend. The blond lady running register was super friendly, and while the other guy working wasn’t rude, I do feel like he could’ve increased his hospitality a bit.

Informal and cute, I ordered a salmon sandwich, waffle sweet potatoes and a smoothie, everything was so yummy and good price, the service was 2/3 with three people working there, two helpful, friendly and smiling ones, one looked a little that it didn't like its job very much or was tired, I certainly don't know; I will go again maybe to try desserts and coffee (and maybe a sandwich to go hehe), they also looked very good 😊

I frequent the people's market quite often and I must say this is one of Charlotte's best locations for remote working and small team meetings. The servers are always pleasant and helpful. The food is really great too. Their fries could rival Five Guys! We chose this place because the parking is free and the atmosphere is always on point. We'll definitely be meeting here more often.

I loooove this place. It is a really cute atmosphere, lots of space, and amazing food! Last time I tried their breakfast burrito and it was really good.
Brian Sun
The People’s Market is truly a neighborhood hub. It features awesome foods and drinks selection, a great grab and go section, private meeting room and even a small art gallery! We ordered the breakfast chicken biscuit, berry sunshine smoothie and a vanilla latte, they were excellent! The staff is very friendly as well. Highly recommended!

This was my first visit to the new location. And I still love it! I always compare my iced caramel lattes to Not Just Coffee. In my opinion, Not Just coffee is the bar. The People’s Market comes very very close to that bar. The cinnamon glazed croissant was phenomenal! Service is top notch. Plenty of seating. Great atmosphere! Plenty of pastries to choose from.

I don’t know what kind of crack they make their iced hazelnut lattes out of but I’ve yet to find a better coffee place in the city. Foods decent, nothing to write home about if it’s not a pastry, but that coffee is so so so good. Staff is great and atmosphere is fantastic.
Emily Scharf
I love the laid back atmosphere that this little market/cafe has. The chicken sandwich is delicious and the coffee is good too. They have an array of baked goods, lunch bites, adult beverages, and snacks available for purchase. My one suggestion would be to combine the coffee shop and food shop ordering stations so that folks can do a single complete transaction instead of doing a separate transaction at each station. Perhaps y'all already have that and I just didn't know.

My lavender vanilla almond milk latte and GF orange cardamom donut was so good! Was waiting for my mom to get out of surgery at Novant and they were kind enough to box everything up for me to-go when I got the call that she was ready. Staff was so kind and the layout was great (although could use more outlets). Can’t wait to come back and try lunch!
Carol Rego
The egg and cheese sandwich was reasonably priced and comes on a huge biscuit. I mean that thing was a chonkster, and I’m not mad at it. Very tasty. However, I didn’t like my matcha latte. It was quite bitter (more than it’s supposed to be) to the point that I wondered if it was either stored or prepared incorrectly.
Rebecca Brannon
Great place for a casual breakfast and coffee. They had live music this morning.
David Foulser
The grandkids love the bacon here. That's good because the baked goods are so-so. Wish they were better!

It’s like... If you like coffee, tea, beer, wine, breakfast, lunch, snacks, music and pretty much just a roomy casual relaxing atmosphere to hangout... There’s nothing to dislike about this spot! 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘s Coffee and Chill!
David Juneau
Had a wonderful breakfast burrito and coffee here today. The staff was helpful and friendly. Unlike the previous reviewer I find the space very inviting and the bar stools just fine. I like the fact that it is spacious. It's a welcome change from the cramped space of the famous chain coffee place next door.
Kristen Bumgarner
This truly is the PEOPLE’S market. They’ve got beer, breakfast burritos, and biscuits. The coffee is local and on point; the barista and bartender TJ can make an expert rec on beer or wine from their curated collection. I love this place and can’t wait for my next evening brew with clt pals or mimosa while listening to a rad local band during brunch. I’m all about their food, libations, and vibe.

Perfect spot for a quick lunch! The grilled bologna pimento cheese sandwich is on point!!!! And the fries are perfection!!! Only suggestion I would make is to have “homemade” ranch dressing. I’m a dipper and those fries would have been so much better dipped in good ranch instead of the bottled stuff I got. Otherwise, I LOVE this place!!!
Russ Bogue
This place is exactly what we needed in this spot! The staff is friendly and the variety is great! Menu items or custom made, it's all been amazing. Definitely something for everyone! You must check it out!!
Matthew Gillette
People's Market is a great spot! It has an ideal location that serves up coffee, wine, beer, and a variety of food. Definitely worth checking out.
Mark De Gruchy
Came for the "Move that Dough" baked treats, stayed for the coffee. Been a few times. Friendly atmosphere even when busy and bathrooms have always been tidy. Would recommend.
Kris Roth
Had breakfast with my vegan daughter a few weeks ago. What a great spot full of friendly people and good food/drink!

I’ve read the positive reviews and tried to see what they were seeing but I just cannot. I was so excited about this place. Totally was expecting a Dilworth-spin on Earl’s Grocery. But what we got is an IKEA market. It’s stark and not welcoming and the aluminum barstools are so uncomfortable (so much for hanging out with friends). Everyone in the neighborhood with a work from home gig, and every PTA mom who has breakfast and/or lunch committee meetings (I identify with both categories) was anxiously awaiting somewhere besides Mayobird to eat while meeting. The food quantity and price point doesn’t make up for the lack of ambiance or personality. The space is so huge and has so much potential. Right now it’s a drafty cement slab with tons and tons of unused space and no character. I’m rooting for it to adjust to the hood, but Dilworth deserves more than what The People’s Market is currently offering.

We'll be back in the People's Market a Lot! Nice folks, good things to eat and drink, and also a great place to meet!
Cory S
This place is awesome! Eat, work, play all in one place!
Jenny Prince

Jay Ritenbaugh
Sorry the place just opened as I’m moving to Ft.Mill SC in 7 weeks. What a great addition to East Blvd.
Robin Lowe Lipe
Great place for work or play. Fun for adults and there's ice cream for the kids!
Shawna Cook
TJ, Adam & Ahmed made this THE best experience! I’ll definitely be back...next week.
Jimmy Schiemann
Finally a place nearby to get a good Cortadito ���
