    This seems to be an attempt to be an outdoor version of Optimist hall. Lots of small food, coffee, bar and shops that are connected via outside walks. It does not seem to have the popularity of optimist hall yet, but it is a good concept. We got coffee here and tried later that evening to get ice cream, but most everything closed up fairly early. There seemed to be bars and entertainment areas but we did not have the time to try those out. This is a cool set up and worth checking out

    We're visiting from Miami and a friend suggested we check out Camp North End because they thought we'd love it... wow. What an experience. The vibes are everywhere. Food, music, kids running around, games, activities, there's so much going on and the place is HUGE. Someone told me it's around 700 acres and honestly, it felt like it. We got there a little later in the day so a lot of the stores had already closed, which was the only downside. Definitely gives you a reason to come back because there was clearly so much more to explore. We'll absolutely be returning next time we're in town.

    Camp North End is always a vibe! Very lively, always something to do. They typically have events you can attend for free. They keep the grounds nice and clean. Artistic vibes, new restaurants are popping up, some shopping. Grab yourself a plant or two, something to eat, dessert, and a cocktail/beer or two and vibe out! Love the camp!

    Wow... where do I even start? I was in town visiting family and one day my sister and brother-in-law said we were coming here to meet friends for lunch. At the time, I had no idea what I was walking into. They made it seem like it was some type of foodhall with multiple restaurant options to choose from, but goodness, it is far more than that! From the moment we arrived it blew my expectations out of the water. I would describe it more like a complex. Not only is there an indoor space with a ton of vendors serving everything from sushi and empanadas to fried chicken and pasta, but there's also a small market place, art studios, locally owned shops, a beautiful outdoor space, interactive elements, and more. There's seriously so much going on that there was no way we had enough time to explore it all. Knowing that, we stuck with the food. I decided to order sushi from a vendor located inside. I wish I could remember the name of it, but unfortunately they aren't on Yelp yet. As soon as I remember, I'll be sure to add it, so you can find it. Everyone in my group decided to get something different and we were all pretty happy with our decisions. Along with my sushi I had to get some mochi donuts from another spot inside. My sister and brother-in-law had never had one and I simply could not accept that. I got two and both were colorful and flavorful. I seriously cannot wait for my next visit to Charlotte because I would love to come back and explore more. If you're looking for something fun to do that'll satisfy your entire friend group or family, I have no doubt that Camp North End will do the trick.

    I have been here a couple of times as there's a coworking space that I use. This is an interesting space that was originally a Model T factory back in the 1920s and then was used by the US Army to assemble missiles during the Cold War. The space still feels very industrial but it's been updated and adapted into offices, meeting spaces, bars and hangouts. All sorts of open air play spaces, farmers markets, live music and the Keswick food stall / pop-up area. Some of the parking is free, some is paid. I used the spaces north of the space along Graham for free. [Review 508 of 2025 - 4110 in North Carolina - 24070 overall]

    Well well well....just when I thought that Charlotte couldn't get any better...it DID!!!! I'm calling this place a hangout spot Wonder of the Charlotte world.. This place has got a variety of resteraunts, bars and outside hangout spots. And I adore the semi vagabond, casual vibe it has. It's good for families, friends and couples. And it's in a perfect spot, right on Stateville drive, near North Graham. It's literally where Oaklawn Avenue and Statesville interconnect, which Is only about a half a mile from uptown. Heard they have outdoor movies when the weather is warm. Worth checking out at least once.

    This was my first time going to Camp North and I loved it. It has yummy cultural foods, diversity and music as well as a spay good for kids and adults to relax on an afternoon or noght. There are so much to see and activities I gotta come back for sure. There is a restaurant that has pickle ball courts inside !!! So fun! Space with huge blocks for hide... I mean I almost don't want to advertise so it doesn't get too crowded. Highly recommend to mamas out there trying to have a good time along side their kids and your tired of the same old parks.

    What a great concept and great place! I specifically came on Wednesday evening for live jazz. I checked the website and their social media to make sure it was still on prior to going same day, and everything looked good. I got there an hour early so that I could walk around some of the shops. Unfortunately the jazz band never showed, so I got another drink and went home. It's a great vibe and I like all the art everywhere. Someone I spoke with there did say sometimes the scheduled events or music just don't happen, which is disappointing. I will return for the ice skating in December, and hope to see more shops, cafes and galleries open up there.

    Recommended by the locals - Camp North End is an awesome stop for tourist. They have a lot to see here with the art to some local shops and restaurants. There was a thrift event that happened on the day I visited that was particularly for women. There was also a smoothie van that had $5 smoothies for happy hour every day. I'd imagine this place would be fun to visit on a summer evening for an outdoor market. The disappointing thing was there were many empty offices and shops. It seemed like this place was just starting to get built out or the foot traffic isn't enough to keep businesses running. I wish I was able to see Camp North End at its peak of business.

    Camp NorthEnd is a total vibe! I love coming here. Great food selections, a beautiful and unique plant shop, great photo ops and several other variety shops. There is a ton of underutilized open retail/office space. I hope more businesses geared toward entertainment flock here. There is so much potential. We came on Christmas Day to take advantage of their ice skating offering. Booking online was simple and efficient. They were also selling tickets at the counter. Admission and skates were $16, that included 1 hour of skating. The rink was fairly small for the amount of people that were there in our time block. I did not see anyone monitoring the entering and exit of the ice rink. It was really nice to be there after dark to see all of the lights. They had sitting areas with firepits. Great touch for a chilly night on the ice.

    Camp North End.. I think may be one of Charlotte's most ambitious projects and honestly the one I'm most excited for (other than the probably never gonna happen Queens Park). The north side of the QC has historically been zoned for much of the business / industry that people would rather not live right next to, or at least that was how it started. Now, between NoDa, Optimist Hall, Camp North End.. you can easily see the movement taking place on the north side. Camp North End is 70+ acres in total and once completed will be the ultimate live, work, eat, play, walkable, mixed-use, whatever you wanna call it future of living in the QC. Pickleball? its there! Tacos, pizza, coffee, burgers, etc?? Yup, its all there. Camp North End once completed will be every bit as amazing for the north side as South Park Mall is for the south side. You might even take a broader look and see Camp North End as a reimagined / deconstructed future outdoor mall. As of today there is still plenty otw but once completed this will be the go-to place for "what to do if you only have 24 hours in CLT".

    This will be my lunch spot today!

    I always love coming here. Whenever I have time between appointments and Camp North End is nearby, I stop. They have lots of cool eating areas. There is scenery and it's clean. I love the openness of the property. I never have trouble finding parking during non-events which is usually when I come. It's my happy place!

    Great spot for a family outing. Had a great time at the Day of the Dead celebration. Live music, shows , food trucks, and vendors. Service was good at most places. They have multiple restaurants and shops throughout. Playground for kids. Brewery for those who enjoy a good beers. Just a nice place.

    This place made me LOVE Philly cheesesteaks. I never liked them (even when I was actually in…read morePhilly) until I came here. Now I'm obsessed. Absolutely incredible. The owner was also incredibly sweet and took the time to talk with us about how the team went to Philly and did so much research before opening this place. You can truly taste the care and effort that went into it! The prices are more than worth it in my opinion , and every time we're in Charlotte, this is a must stop for us. Mouthwatering, packed with flavor, and absolutely worth any wait. I honestly wish they'd open one in Raleigh because we'd be there every single week. This place is officially a staple for us, and I cannot rave about these cheesesteaks enough. Thank you for serving the community and honestly don't listen to any review that isn't 5 stars.

Well done and thank you for making me feel seen, heard, and valued!!! Just goes to show, voicing your experiences on these kinds of platforms can result in action :)

I arrived at 6:30 PM on a Wednesday after seeing their Instagram post saying they would close at 7 pm or when they sold out. I ordered a classic: funnel cake with powdered sugar and fresh strawberries without whipped cream and syrup. I was told it would be about a 30-minute wait which was a spot-on estimate. I was super excited about the funnel cake, and I unwrapped the box and took a picture. The funnel cake was shockingly small, and there wasn't a lot of powdered sugar and just a few strawberries. I expected a more significant portion for the $10 price. Additionally, the flavor of the batter was delicious, but the funnel cake itself was pretty greasy, though otherwise cooked well. The greasiness made it soggy and not a super tasty experience. I'd say that it was overall a 3 to a 3-1/2-star product. The extra star I'm giving is for the excellent service. They are probably a new business working out the kinks and need more feedback and guidance to step it up to a headling product. I also think their menu was a bit extensive and varied, which may make it challenging to prepare orders promptly. With some refinement, this could be a great spot. It doesn't do much in the ambiance as it is an outdoor tent adjacent to a barbershop in the Roses parking lot on the Plaza, but I don't think that's what people come here for. I would give them some space to grow and give them another shot.

    Probably one of the most creative concepts in terms of menu in the city. The Owner tries a bunch of…read moredifferent things and sees what sticks. He is not afraid to step outside the box. The last time I chatted with him he was trying out hibachi plates. With that said they should probably change their name because this place is so much more than just funnel cakes. The hot dogs and cheeseburgers are some of the best in the city. Yes, they do have funnel cakes, fried oreos, lemonades... your regular carnival foods but just with a twist. The Owners are also very nice and appreciative of their customers. They even give out t-shirts to their first customers of the day sometimes. They are located in a tent currently on The Plaza in front of Heads Up Barber Shop four days a week and at Mountain Island Fitness three times a week. Check their social media for their location for that specific day.

They have a set menu option OR a build your own, and opted for a build your own! Staff was diligent in taking my ingredients AND preparation was FAST! All sushi burriots come with mixed greens automatically, and I ordered a sushi rice base, with salmon for my protein, with ponzu sauce (underwhelming, unsure if they remembered it), and embellished with: cucumber, edamame beans, grilled pineapple (+$.50 - not enough to be worth an up charge), and avocado (+$.75 - not enough to be worth an up charge). For the "finish it up" I opted for sesame seeds and tempura chips which I feel like should be relabeled as tenpura crisps.. but still a good added crunch! My burrito, after tax and tip, was like $21. Next time I wont be adding pineapple and avocado as I feel the cost to add did not reflect the quantity added to my burrito, but content with the decent amount of salmon pieces! Overall pretty comparable to other places, and will find myself coming back! Classic "food hall" set up, and is located in the corner by The Bar with ample seating inside and outside! Free first 90min parking always a plus!!

I got a cheese strudel, a parmesan pretzel and 2 hot apple ciders (small sizes) for $23? Seriously? They ran out of cherry and apple strudels and I settled for cheese, left with no choices. It was the worst I ever had, I couldn't taste the marzipan, the cheese was barely any, no raisins or anything, pretty bland. The market is free and for what they have to offer, they better not charge admission. Worst Christmas market I ever visited! And the smallest!
