Staff Report | News 14 | Charlotte, NC
After several delays, the Coffee Cup restaurant is expected to reopen Tuesday morning at its new uptown location.
The Coffee Cup became the city's first integrated restaurant in 1968. The owners fought plans to demolish the original building on South Clarkson Street for months and were successful in having the diner named a historic landmark.
Owners closed the doors there last month and have signed a 10-year lease at their new home at 301 South McDowell Street.
