    I live in a small town and to my knowledge there's only a bbq joint. In the bay area there's a ton of stuff cuz of the Panthers. Idr the name but the oldest black book store in the country is in oakland.

    There's directories that tell you where black businesses are tho. I'll find it and post it

    Mertz Soul Food restaurant in Charlotte. The people there are really nice amd the food is great, I just wish parking was better. I also like Floyd's Soul Food.

    Dupp & Swat is like a clothing store-art studio. Great place to shop in my favorite section of Charlotte(Noda)

    Sunset Inn - barbeque place

    Mary's Lounge - restaurant & a place where the old school club at

    Uncle Larry's - an upcoming restaurant that is ran by my brother in law father & his uncle. This restaurant is gradually growing & more popular for their Cajun fish, whitening fish, fish altogether. Probably the most popular restaurant of the four. This restaurant is located near downtown that grasp a lot of business, even tourists will come to the city to sample & eat there

    Old Plantation - barbeque place that's been around for 20+ years. They are more popular for their chilli dogs. Their business has grown a lot. It's stationed in the hood but they get white people still. When I use eat pork then this use to be my go to place for chilli dogs.

    It's alot more black business in the city but those come from the top of my head. I hate that Old Plantation hasn't expanding their franchise. I think if you have multiple years in the game with great service then you should expand.

    There are a lot more black owned businesses than you'd think, but still not enough.
