Chicken Box Cafe
Meet Erica Williams, co-owner of Chicken Box Café, Charlotte’s original soul food cafe. Chicken Box Café is a Black-owned family business offering soul food plates to eat in or take out.
A Beyond Open Grant will be used to help renovate the restaurant.
“During the pandemic, we were forced to shut down our dining room, which lowered our revenue. Being able to make repairs to our restaurant will help our plan to increase our revenue by opening up again to the community in full capacity. This grant will also change our location to being a place that is safe and secure, as it was once when we hosted many events for the community to thrive and grow.” – Erica Williams
