The Village Restaurant, a north Charlotte staple for six decades, has served its last plate. The closure wasn’t the owners’ choice—the property is being sold and their lease wasn’t renewed. For so many locals, this place was more than just a diner; it was part of daily routines, family traditions, and neighborhood memories. It’s tough to see a beloved spot disappear because of forces outside the owners’ control. How do you feel about losing these longtime community hangouts? What’s your favorite memory from The Village or another local spot that’s now gone? #Food #CharlotteEats #CommunityMatters
