This marks its fifth Charlotte-area location, joining existing spots in Optimist Park, Ballantyne, Plaza Midwood and Concord.<\/p>\n

\u201cDavidson feels like a perfect fit for Harriet\u2019s,\u201d co-owner Joe Haubenhofer said in a news release. \u201cIt\u2019s a community that appreciates quality, supports local businesses, and shares our love for old-school hospitality.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2,000-square-foot restaurant seats up to 38 guests and features a large outdoor patio. It joins a mix of restaurants, retailers and wellness services at Sadler Square, which underwent a multi-million-dollar revamp<\/a> after Piedmont Capital purchased the property in 2024, Axios Charlotte reported.<\/p>\n

Copain Bakery, Rooster\u2019s Wood-Fired Kitchen and Ilios Crafted Greek<\/a> are also slated to open there later this summer, CharlotteFive previously reported.<\/p>\n

Davidson locals can expect Harriet\u2019s signature burgers made with Angus beef, artisan cheese and house-made sauces. The Beef Butter Fries, cooked in \u201c100% premium beef tallow,\u201d are also a crowd favorite.<\/p>\n

The burger joint prides itself on its no-frills menu featuring cheese curds, craft sodas and Happiness Meals for the kiddos. Family-style \u201climo packs\u201d stocked with burgers, fries and more are also an option if you\u2019re feeding a group.<\/p>\n

Harriet\u2019s Davidson restaurant will open at 11 a.m. daily.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t wait to open our doors, make some new friends, and serve up a lot of hamburgers and Beef Butter Fries,\u201d Haubenhofer said.<\/p>\n
