Homegrown restaurant chain snags prime spot in south Charlotte

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A sixth location is in the works for this homegrown restaurant concept.

Duckworth’s Grill and Taphouse has lined up space in the Rea Farms development in south Charlotte. Founder Rob Duckworth says construction has started, with a goal of opening by early July.

“I’ve kept my eye on that market for a while,” Duckworth says. “It’s a great spot in a great development, with a great developer.”
