New cafe opens at Queen City Quarter in Uptown

Lottie's is the latest tenant to open at Queen City Quarter in Uptown.

Why it matters: Queen City Quarter is starting to make a comeback now that more businesses are opening in what was formerly the EpiCentre .

---

Catch up quick: Lottie's, which is in its soft opening phase until June 15, is the second new business to open in the former EpiCentre.

• Southern comfort food restaurant Kitchen & Kocktails opened June 1.
• A seafood restaurant across from the cafe called Sea Grill is expected to open this summer.
• Lip Print , a Raleigh-based custom makeup company, is opening soon next door to Lottie's.

What to expect: Its menu includes several coffee options, pastries from Beyond Amazing Donuts , breakfast bowls, sandwiches and flatbreads.

• By the end of June, they'll offer an extended drink menu with cocktails, beer and wine.
• It'll also have a small retail space offering apparel and home decor — a nod to Lottie's owners' previous business, Nostalgia Hollow Co. in Kannapolis.
