    I saw so many rave reviews about Clark's and it is worth the hype !!!! I had the chopped cheese and it was amazing. The flavor was to die for and the price was also well worth it. Cute spot in plaza you should definitely check it out! Next time can't wait to try their breakfast sandwiches I've heard great things about

    I am from Chicago and so I ordered the Chicago Dog and a side of baked beans. The service was quick and the food was hot. The Chicago Dog was better than I expected because they char the bun and split the dog. Both great ideas. The baked beans were a pleasant surprise too. They had fine ground beef and bacon in there. Yum. This was my first visit and definitely will not be my last.

    Carolina Burger and French Fries
    Cotrane P.

    We've been to Clark's at least 5 times and have tried a number of different menu items. Today, I had the Carolina Burger and regular fries. My husband had the Clark Burger and tater tots. The bread is beautiful to look at, soft, and buttery while the burger and each topping are all chosen or made with care. I don't know how they cook their fries and tots but I'd put them against any in town. Other things that I'd recommend include anything of their pastrami sandwiches (it's house made), hot dogs, and the BLT. And if you go for breakfast, definitely have a Montreal style bagel with their homemade cream cheese. Service is quick and the atmosphere is casual. Perfect for quick weeknight dinner or weekend lunch.

    Big fan of Clark's!!!! We stopped in for breakfast and it is the perfect hangover food. Messy sammies, hotdogs, the works. Food comes out on a tray, kind of like a BBQ joint or a cafeteria. It felt old school in a great way. I ordered pastrami hash and my partner ordered a breakfast sandwich, plus coffees for the both of us. Overall, this place is great. Very casual, a steady flow of customers. It's a little out of the way, but close to the action and I hope the hustle of Plaza extends toward them. Parking is a challenge, as there weren't a ton of spaces. There's outdoor seating and an order window, and it's dog friendly! Some games inside as well. Additionally, I do not eat pork, and so I hope they introduce an all beef hotdog to the menu! There were still some options, even for vegetarians, but the all beef would be great :)

    Very cool exciting new place for cheese burgers and split hotdogs ! Parking sucks so go to the tobacco spot buy a Gatorade or cigar and they may let you park in the lot. Showed up at 12 because of traffic one table was left inside and outside the restaurant. Loved the beers and the food that day.

    Have been wanting to visit Clark's for a while and finally made it in! I knew it was going to be good when I saw the candy jars and bags of UTZ chips. Easily one of my favorite burgers and hand cut fries in CLT. Great service, friendly staff, clean, fast and delicious! Check them out!

    Stopped by Clark's and ordered the Clark's Burger, and this place is definitely worth the hype. The burger was way bigger than I expected -- stacked with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and melty cheese on a soft brioche bun. Beware it can get a little messy! Super juicy and full of flavor. The fries were good -- crispy, well-seasoned, and perfect with their ranch. Price-wise, you can't beat for the quality of food you get. Overall, great burger spot with solid food, a chill vibe, and menu that varies from burgers to dogs and sandwiches.

    Chopped Cheese
    Emily M.

    Wow! So glad this OG is back! We had the fish sandwich special, and the chopped cheese special. Both were insane, look at the size of the fish! Fries are awesome, baked beans are great with the fries. Cannot go wrong here!

    Finally made it to Clark's Snack Bar--and as a bratwurst lover, I had high hopes. I was curious to see what took over The Good Wurst, and Clark's has been on my list ever since. I grew up in Wisconsin, so my bratwurst standards are very specific: beer-braised, no ketchup nonsense, just sautéed peppers and onions. That's exactly how I ordered it--and it was beautifully done. Juicy, flavorful, with just enough snap in the casing. Pure comfort in a bun. I paired it with a side of tater tots, which unfortunately missed the mark. They were overly salty--after about five, I couldn't go any further. I didn't send them back, mostly because I didn't feel like the back-and-forth, but I'd skip them next time. The space itself is casual, unfussy, and perfect for a quick bite or low-key hang. No pretense--just good sausages done right (and I say that as someone who's picky about them). I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

    Ruben Sandwich with side of spicy peppers/pickles - $17.95

    Stopped by Clark's Snack Bar for Saturday lunch and loved the retro, welcoming vibe. The space was clean and open, staff were friendly, and the menu was easy to navigate. My husband and I ordered a Reuben sandwich (with spicy peppers), a cheeseburger with potato salad, and shared a strawberry milkshake to go. Everything was delicious and fairly priced, especially the Reuben, which was one of the best I've had in a long time. Bonus points for the dartboard and shuffleboard while we waited, such a fun touch! And the quirky sign out front? Loved it. Definitely a locals' gem. We'll be back and next time, I'm not sharing the Reuben.

    Came to Clark's after seeing a TikTok video of their location. We ordered a bacon egg and cheese and a pork roll with some tots. The pork roll on a sesame bagel toasted also had chili oil added, which made it additionally amazing! There are limited seating options so you might have to wait a while in order to be able to sit down and eat and the parking is a bit limited as well. So if you're coming here to sit, expect to wait for a bit. At the end it was all worth it, and I would definitely come back again. Service was amazing!

    We stopped here to enjoy lunch on a Saturday. We were promptly greeted and given some suggestions after telling cashier it was my first time. I kept it simple and ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and a chocolate shake. My cheeseburger was pleasing to the eye but not my tastebuds. It was dry and bland. The fries were very good though. And the shake..the shake was nothing special. It just tasted like chocolate ice cream in a small cup! I was expecting something delicious considering it was almost $7! I do not feel the quality of the food was worth the price. I will not be returning.

    If you follow food news for more than five minutes, you've probably heard some version of the "tea" behind Clark's Snack Shop. Clark's comes from the same owner behind Good Wurst, which (if you remember) opened in this exact Plaza Midwood space, expanded to three locations, and then shut down all three within a year. Nobody closes a thriving business, so I have to assume the economics just stopped making sense... but that didn't prevent a wave of headlines. One week it was lawsuits over the South End location, the next it was a quiet rebrand of the Plaza Midwood spot into "Clark's Snack Shop." I stopped in today and grabbed a chicken salad sandwich and chili cheese fries to-go because I needed to wrap up a listing presentation at home. When I opened the bag... disaster. The sandwich had toppled straight into the chili cheese fries. Not ideal so I re-plated everything and soldiered on. The chicken salad sandwich was good (not great). The biggest issue.. the chicken salad doesn't carry a big stick and the pickles completely overpower it. If you LOVE pickles, go for it... if not, I'd recommend ordering them on the side. Amélie's still holds the crown for chicken salad in the QC. The chili cheese fries were sweet, salty, and definitely edible. They were thick-cut, which helps them hold up under chili, but the overall flavor leaned mild. Not the best chili cheese fries in the city (that honor still belongs to Little Village Grill, forever and always), but drown them in Texas Pete and they'll get the job done. I didn't find anything I had to have again, but I also didn't dislike anything. The bigger question isn't the food, it's whether the ghost of Good Wurst will live for long. I'll probably swing back around to see how the menu evolves, until then... shoot me a message and we can tour homes in the area so you can grab lunch from Clarks while walking your pup around the neighborhood.

I went here for the first time the other night while searching for a healthy meal. The atmosphere was very laid back with relaxing lighting & a spacious patio space as well. It's a market too so they have multiple refrigerators with bottled & canned drinks you can grab and go with. They also have a full bar. Currently I'm trying to stay away from fried food & Red meat so I wanted some chicken. The only chicken dish was a dish with fried chicken. I opted to get a veggie and grains bowl & added roasted chicken thighs. The dish came with quinoa, beats, & sweet potatoes. I also got a side of Brussel sprouts which were ok at best (needed to be cooked just a little longer). Outside of that, the dish was really good & filling. I'll definitely be back. Also one thing to add, I initially ordered the dish with fried chicken & was told that the fried chicken could be substituted. After I paid, the manager came over & explained that the dish couldn't be substituted for grilled chicken & worked with me to get something that I actually wanted, that's how I ended up with the bowl. So great service on his part.

Last year, I had a sandwich in Spain that I haven't been able to stop thinking about. I've tried several places around Charlotte looking for something similar, but nothing came close. I reached out to The Culture Shop to see if they'd be willing to recreate it, and not only did they say yes, they turned it into their weekly special using local honey, locally sourced peppers, and local bread. The result completely exceeded my expectations. It captured everything I loved about the original while adding its own Charlotte twist. It was honestly one of the best sandwiches I've had. Beyond the food, the team is incredibly kind, welcoming, and excited about what they do. The shop itself is worth browsing too, with a menu full of creative sandwiches and delicious options, plus a thoughtfully curated selection of pantry items and specialty foods.

    As a San Francisco Bay Area foodie who's been steadily eating my way through Charlotte, I had…read morebookmarked Lee's Sandwiches and was excited to finally give it a try--and overall, it did not disappoint. The concept is refreshingly simple: a straightforward menu of banh mi sandwiches, summer rolls, chips, and prepared foods ready to go. They also offer beer on tap, traditional Vietnamese iced coffee and tea, and fresh fruit smoothies. No frills--just solid, approachable Vietnamese fare. I ordered the #8 Chinese barbecue (char siu) banh mi and requested light pâté and extra vegetables. The sandwich was made to order and came out quickly. One of the owners kindly let me know that pâté typically isn't included on that particular sandwich and didn't charge me for it, which I appreciated. The sandwich itself was good, reasonably priced (around $8-9), and filling. I also ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee, which delivered exactly the caffeine kick I was looking for. It wasn't overly sweet, had beautifully crushed ice, and came with a proper lid--not the plastic film seal you sometimes see at boba shops. Combined, the sandwich and coffee came to about $15, which felt like a great value. The interior is charming and thoughtfully designed. There's a small tuk-tuk display with retail items, traditional Vietnamese decor like bamboo hats on the walls, and even a seating area with low stools that gives a nod to the street-side dining style you'd find in Vietnam. I also loved the creative touch of repurposed Café Du Monde coffee cans holding napkins and chopsticks--simple, clever, and memorable. One small note for authenticity seekers: as someone who grew up with traditional Vietnamese cuisine, I've been searching for the classic old-school imperial rolls made with rice paper that fries up bubbly, crispy, and slightly chewy. The owner confirmed what I've been noticing--that many restaurants in the Charlotte area adapt recipes to American tastes, so that particular style is harder to find here. It wasn't a dealbreaker, just an interesting cultural observation. For my personal taste, the char siu wasn't quite as rich or fatty as the Chinese barbecue versions I'm used to, and the pâté had a slightly bitter note. Next time, I'll likely try the lemongrass pork banh mi and skip the pâté altogether. Insider tip: This is a great spot for a quick, affordable lunch with authentic flavors and fast service. The iced coffee alone is worth the visit. Overall, a cute, well-run neighborhood shop with solid value, friendly service, and a menu that does a few things well. I'll definitely be back to continue exploring the offerings.
