Monarch Market

Description: Monarch Market is a destination for crafted culinary experiences in the center of Uptown Charlotte featuring 13 vendors, 1 full-service restaurant, 3 bars and private event space.

Comments: A swanky spot inside One Independence Center with plenty of seating, a wide range of food options, and Wi-Fi (just ask a staff member for the password). It’s internally connected to Coco and the Director and the Marriott hotel, giving you even more seating and coffee options, just walk down the long hallway toward the reception desk to find it. There’s also plenty of outdoor seating. Popular with bank workers in the area.
