| - I have to update my FABO review...now that I feel like I live there, I can properly assess all the other wonderful pieces of this fab-u-lous place.
Art: CLT has some really, really impressive local artists. If you haven't checked out the art here, you're missing out, holmes. And the jewelery is slammin'.
Beer & wine: They have it. While I could stop there, I won't. They have unique wines - chocolate, chocolate raspberry, New Age (aka - Cougar Crack), and plenty of the beer and wine you're used to and fond of. Drink it on the patio - it's gaw-geous.
Food, Treats & Vendors: Focaccia bread, pepperoni rolls, Beverly's Gourmet dips and such in a fridge, Secret Chocolatier, Cloister Honey, delightful croissants, muffins, baked goods, Tizzert's treats...the list goes on and on.
Coffee: Tasty beans, friends. My personal fave is an iced almond latte - it's like crack in a cup. The quality of the coffee is pretty superb.
Work space: You need some quiet space during the day? FABO's got it. Break out your laptop and sit your butt down at a table or a comfy couch. Or, if you have a book club, board meeting, etc. - this is a great space to host it!
Staff: Some of the nicest in Charlotte. Welcoming, friendly, helpful - just grand overall.
Community outreach & charity: A *huge* supporter of fellow local businesses (evidenced by their many cool partnerships & events) and big-time supporter of doggies. You'll spy many a pup in need of adopting in and around FABO. Pet the doggies, they're sweet. Then adopt them.
I can't say enough good things about FABO...it's one of my fave places in CLT.
