Because South End Charlotte loves to eat, The Salty is here to bring some of the very best donuts to Charlotte NC.
After much anticipation, Miami’s first and favorite artisanal donut shop, The Salty Donut, is opening its first NC shop on January 6. The family-owned brand’s eighth location is in Charlotte’s South End neighborhood on South Tryon Street.
All About The Salty
Joining a portfolio of shops in Florida and Texas, the Charlotte store will offer the same signature, decadent treats that have created the cult-like following. Additionally, you will find store-specific flavors and items inspired by the neighborhood. There is also an emphasis on homemade/locally-sourced ingredients.
“At The Salty we are all about community. We cannot wait to become part of the community in South End with our love and passion for donuts, coffee, baked goods and quirky sense of hospitality,” says CEO and Co-Founder Andy Rodriguez.
“We want The Salty to become THE gathering place for our guests. The go-to spot to meet a friend, grab treats for the office or pick up a coffee while walking the dog. Yes, we are dog friendly and offer a doggy donut!. To say we are excited for this opening is an understatement.”
The exciting milestone will be celebrated with giveaways throughout opening weekend (Friday, January 6 – Sunday, January 8). The first 50 guests each day will receive a limited edition gift bag. It includes a Charlotte tote bag, postcard, stickers, and special swag.
