50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Mount Holly

“I recommend them for everything food’s good and the service is great. They know what they’re doing and also it’s not that expensive either and it’s in a good location.“

“If you're a fan of classic comfort food, BrightStar is an absolute must-visit. Their burgers are simply outstanding—perfectly cooked with a juicy, flavorful patty that's always fresh and topped with just the right amount of melt-in-your-mouth cheese. The buns are soft and toasted to perfection, holding everything together while adding a nice little crunch.

But the real star of the show? The cheese tots. Crispy on the outside, warm and gooey on the inside, they’re smothered in a rich, cheesy goodness that makes every bite a little bit of heaven. It's the kind of side dish that could easily steal the spotlight from the burger, but together, they create the ultimate meal.

If you're in the mood for some seriously satisfying food, BrightStar delivers every time. Highly recommend!“

“Best food in MT Holly N.C Just make sure you check your order before you take it out“

“Our first visit was today. The food was amazing and the Manager that was working the afternoon was amazing. The Manager stepped up and came our waitress she filled our drinks and brought our bill. Our Waitress we had was horrible she never once refilled our drinks. She only took our order and delivered it to us. We did leave a tip which should go to the Manager. We will visit again just hope we have a different waitress.“

“First time trying Mount Holly Sake Express. Everything was absolutely perfect! We will be back! 😊“

“We’ve been to Traust twice now for karaoke nights, both times were great!! We had a birthday dinner there with about 25 people in our party, and Megan held it down!! She did awesome at keeping everyone’s drinks full and taking orders as people rolled in. She was attentive and friendly. Last night there was some drama with a strange man dancing around and trying to talk to our kids. Once I mentioned it to our server, she and several other staff members IMMEDIATELY ran this guy off. They do NOT play when it comes to child safety.“

“Amazing food and amazing customer service I’ll definitely go back every time I’m near !“

“Not just another coffee place. What an incredible experience that touches your soul.“

“First, very large outdoor and indoor seating available. Over 50 or so brews on tap, as well as wine and liquor options. I had the steak burger with jalapeño slaw, which was ok. Burger was thin but tasty. Slaw wasn't any slaw I've ever seen, kinda dry. Overall, it's a better place to get a brew than food, in my opinion. Would definitely go back.“

“What a gem! In house drip of the day was perfectly hot and deliciously brewed. A must try- the everything savory danish. I absolutely loved the self service station to heat my pastry and doctor my coffee as I like. I’m excited to try the freshly ground for me bag of beans I chose to take home. It’s a pleasure to support a local and small business. Bonus: if you can’t make it in person, they do Friday deliveries! A must try for sure!“

“Picked up a delicious dish from Love in action cafe yesterday for my wife's birthday and daayyuumm this place is amazing! If any of yall are in the charlotte area definitely stop by and give this place a try, u won't be disappointed 🤘 ~SiD~“

“Southern Tier brews some of the best beer in the WORLD!!The Charlotte location is a great spot to stop in for a beer, cider or a Southern Tier mixed drink. Today, our bartender Heath worked with the kitchen to accomodate our dietary restrictions. That's TOP NOTCH customer service!!! We love Southern Tier and can't wait for Pumpking to be released.“

“Visited thousand hills yesterday (Sunday July 13) at around 11am for the 1st ever.

When we walked in, there was an event going on with a full on DJ & a photographer. I was surprised but it was a nice surprise. Found out that this type of event happens twice a month.

Line was long but moving quickly. I got an iced vanilla latte with cold foam & it was SO good. I would recommend & I’ll be back again!“

“Had a really nice lunch here with the family. The food was fresh, and the staff was super friendly. Definitely coming back next time we’re in the area!“

“What a hidden gem! Great food and an amazing wine list. Prices are very reasonable too. Check it out. You won’t be disappointed!“

“I love the mission, the food, the people!“

“Enjoyed the Experience. Food and Spicy Bloody Mary.“

“Great food! Loved the Mac and cheese and pulled pork. Our server, Zach H was awesome :)“

“We hosted our welcome party here the night before our wedding and it was HIT! So much fun. Excellent service from all of the staff. The food was amazing, dare I say better than their regular menu. Would definitely recommend hosting an event here!“

“Sugar Creek Brewing Company hosted our wedding and we had the best experience. Keo was great! He gladly answered our multiple questions in email or on calls, was accommodating with any changes we had such as our wedding date, moving our cocktail hour to the Brewhouse and fitting in a tour more than once along with a last minute rehearsal. We had a smaller wedding of around 50 guests and we were provided different options to set up. The day of our wedding Keo was so supportive and even worked the bar! We cannot be more thankful for such a beautiful and fun location to have our wedding!“

“Stopped for a lunch just off the interstate. Loved the beers and the food! But Cassie was the icing on the cake. She recommended all great things and gave us a great respite on our work day. We’ll be back!“

“The vibe here is amazing! I love a double entendre so walking in to see a sign that says “meat here” with a giant arrow instantly gives me the giggles! The multicolored decor and cool artwork made it hard to do anything but keep smiling. As soon as we’re seated our waitress says “I love your earring and all your jewlery” and I was smitten. I took my jacket off right as she was brining our food. “I love your tattoos” she says and I’m falling in love with this place. The cheesin steak sandwich is smothered in cheese, the wings are crispy, our appetizers came out fast and hot, and the atmosphere was great. I was having such a good time I didn’t even mind the watered down, chunkless blu cheese. You won’t either I promise! My husband and friends notified the waitress it was my 29th birthday to which she replied “29 would have never guessed your 29!” and I’m a little shocked. The thing is it was 13th 29th birthday so I reply “ and how old did you think I was?” I’m expecting a 35 or 36…. She says “24!” I laughed so much and said “I’m actually 42” and it was her turn to be shocked. She actually insisted I pull out my ID and that’s when I knew this lunch date was a Flirtatious Fork 5 star “Marry Me” good! ❤️ the food, the vibe, the service, the drinks (get the emerald godness, it’s amazing!) 💔 having to leave and knowing there isn’t a groovy beast near me! If im ever in Gastonia again I’ll go back!“

“Excellent drinks are good the vibe is awesome!!!“

“This brewery is fantastic! Everyone is so nice,the selection is amazing, the beers are delicious! The back patio is adorable“

“Pizza baby West is our favorite Pizza / Restaurant in Charlotte and surrounding areas! They are not your run-of-the-mill pizza place. They serve a very unique variety of Pizza in Americana style. I am a native New Yorker and it's the closest I can get to back home. They source all natural, local, and imported ingredients and it shows in their food. Their menu is very unique and fresh and authentic Italian. Service is always great and staff are very friendly. But! They are now serving brunch on Saturday and Sundays and the menu is to die for! There is stuffed French toast made on fresh cinnamon brioche bread with a fresh sweet peach compote and syrup, eggs in purgatory with a very flavorful and zesty sauce, and the best breakfast pizza ever! There are sunny side up eggs baked right in and it is amazing to dip the yummy crust into the yolk, as well as sausage, a creamy base, and crispy hash brown potatoes. It is so different and unique and the flavors are just wonderful. They also have bagels and rolls and other baked breads. Oh and they have great cappuccino as well. You just got to try the brunch!“

“Great place, nice folks, interesting story“

“Love the outdoor patio area for football and the food and drinks are great. Also the bartenders are awesome and keep you well "hydrated."“

“We had an amazing networking event last night! The atmosphere at Protagonist was perfect for our event they had a full AV system which was incredibly helpful. The staff was so accommodating and welcoming. Our guests had a great time! We’ll definitely be back!“

“This was my first time visiting but will definitely come back ! Delicious ☕️☕️☕️“

“**Extremely Important!! Take Cash, they don't accept debit or credit cards** This place NEVER disappoints!! Ordered 3 large Pork BBQ plates, it comes with a hearty portion of meat, hush puppies, slaw, baked beans and crispy french fries. We don't like slaw so we opted for extra hush puppies instead. Those hush puppies and fries were on point, I always eat those right away and these had me doing my happy food dance. Baked beans... perfection but that meat y'all, let me tell you about that meat. As soon as you pull up, you can smell that mellow smokiness and that comes through in the taste of the meat. It's the meat you HAVE to keep chewing because it's just that good and tender. BBQ sauce is on the side because it only elevates the flavor instead of masking it. If you've not tried Kyle Fletcher's yet, what are you waiting for? 3 large Pork plates with plenty of sides for right around $30“

“This place is a dog lover’s dream. Great drinks for the humans, off-leash fun for the pups, and a staff that treats every dog like royalty. My pup made five new best friends, I had a blast, and we both left happy and tired. Clean, safe, and full of good vibes—what more could you want? We’ll be back .“

“When I moved to North Carolina back in 2023 I was unsure if there would be any kava bars in the Belmont area for me to hang out at then I found this establishment and it has become a second home to me since living in the area I love coming in and chatting with the kava tenders and have become good friends with their kava tender Connor I hope that when I get more involved in the NASCAR business to get them to sponsor a car and bring some friends in the industry here, Bula !!“

“A little piece of Greek life With great taste“

“Love the quiet vibe and the food was very tasty. Has the turkey sandwich with fruits as a side, which I must say was a breath of fresh air from the typical sides offered in America consisting of various types of fries. A little cup of assorted fruits hits the spot.“

“Fun place! we went there this morning for coffee. It would be great if they had some muffins or bagels!“

“Hard working, friendly staff on the floor and in the kitchen. Very clean and efficient. Most of all...good food!“

“Delicious and the staff were working nonstop!“

“celebrated my daughters 13th birthday here tonight and we had the best time! The staff were all so sweet and helpful! They took care of serving our food and even cutting the cake for us and passing it out. They also packed up the rest of the food and cake for us to take home! It was nice to be able to hang out and talk to everyone without having to worry about those little things! Thank yall for a great night!“

“We enjoyed our 'dinner' at STATION after going through the Belmont Farmer's market. The food was really good, and fairly fast getting served. You do wait in line a bit to place your order depending upon how busy they are. They are open just limited days and not open until 5 PM then. But everything was really good.“

“Incredible food, ambiance and service. Our waitress, Ashley, was outstanding. This sweet young lady was bubbly, outgoing and attentive. We couldn't have asked for a better evening out.“

“The BEST Orings on the planet“

“I ordered a banana split cake from them. That is hands down the best cake I have ever had. I have tried almost every one they put in the display case. would definitely recommend“

“Great palace hang out and have a beer and food.“

“Thank you for hosting our family after the service for my son. You being so accommodating for the 50 of us melts my heart! ♥️ thank you so much!“

“Came in to visit from high point while going to a concert. Atmosphere was awesome lots of great Halloween decorations and parking was super easy. Prices were very good and many choices on tap. Our bartender was very nice and made great recommendations Id love to come back again.“

“Great service and flavor!“

“Came here the first time today and I highly recommend it. Chai tea was great and atmosphere lovely for catching up with friends or meeting.“

“nice family run with good take out. No indoor dining“

“Just stop for a drink. Please dont insist on anything else. Not that the bar can't handle it... just.... for the love of God...... please allow this bartender to tend bar and go get food somewhere else. He does amazing but we are better than this.... as customers.“

“My husband and I have been coming to this delicious food truck for several years and we started making it a weekly tradition to do again. Everything we’ve had is great! The guys who work here are also super friendly.“
