Make Hay While The Sun Shines! Centrally located in Uptown Charlotte, Haymaker Restaurant, from Chef William Dissen, brings locally inspired and seasonal food to the Queen City. Our team reinterprets the bounty of the piedmont area and Appalachia, and explores our foodways, both historic and present across our region. We work with a larder of ingredients indigenous to the area, working to craft menus that are both seasonal, healthy, and locally inspired. Our restaurant is inspired through LEED accredited building practices in an urban setting on Romare Bearden Park with our kitchen being fueled by our brick hearth, artisanal products, and daily farm fresh deliveries. The restaurant is modern, but embraces the hand crafted artisans and furniture builders of North Carolina. Like the decor, our food and drink is also modern, but hand crafted to respect our hard working farmers and haymakers. Heirloom ingredients, pickling, preservation, and sustainably sourced seafood and meats lead the way to crafting our menus at Haymaker. Our restaurant is as laid back and casual as it is a place to celebrate, evoking the urban heart of the city but paying respect for our country roots. We're a place for each and all - It's a neighborhood restaurant and bar, a place for friends to get together, and a destination for dining for business folks and travelers. Make hay, and come on over and share a meal at our table.

Q&A
How does the design of your space (or an element of the design) impact the experiences people have there?
"All of our food and drink is locally sourced and hand crafted. As we tell the story of Haymaker through our food, we also felt that it was important to tell the same story through the space, layout, and design elements."

"Modern Farmhouse"
Q&A
What Custom/Original Element do your guests notice most often? What do they say about it?
"Our horseshoe-shaped bar. Once you enter Haymaker, your eye gravitates straight to the bar with a stunning white marble countertop and blue millworking. The brass accents around the bar and in the back make the space glow at night. We definitely hear a lot of "wow's" from our customers when they walk in the door."
