About Twin Tops Fish Camp
An intentionally old-Carolina room in a neighborhood that mostly looks forward — the contrast is the appeal.
Why Twin Tops Fish Camp matters on this corridor
The commercial spine of Plaza Midwood is unusual for Charlotte in that it never fully redeveloped: single-story storefronts from the streetcar era still hold most of the tenants, which keeps floor plates small and favors independent operators over chains. Twin Tops Fish Camp occupies that kind of space on Central Avenue, and the resulting scale — tight rooms, patios carved out of side lots, counters rather than lobbies — is a large part of why the district reads as it does on foot rather than from a car.
Getting there
Twin Tops Fish Camp sits on Central Avenue inside the Plaza Midwood commercial corridor, reachable on foot from most of the historic residential grid. Street parking near the corridor is contested on weekend evenings, and some adjacent residential blocks carry permit restrictions.
