Nothing is more Southern than a true fish camp. The Riverview Inn was built in 1949 by Irwen W. Burns Sr and has remained a family establishment. Originating as camp sites during the Depression era, the fish camp ultimately evolved into a restaurant in the late 19402 and 1950s. Having lived in Charlotte all my life the Riverview Inn holds lots of memories. From the peg-leg Captain Windy to the dungeon for children who don’t clean their plate it was always fun to go to Riverview Inn.

Let me know if you can make it and how many people will be with you. I will need to make reservations at the restaurant.

Hey Lynda:
Please put us down for 3.... haven't been to the fish camp in forever. I remember when I first moved to Charlotte in 1980, friends talked about going to eat at a fish camp. I had no idea what they were talking about. Well, I finally made it there and what a surprise! Yum-Yum!!

There used to be another place out there, a restaurant called Rozzelle's something or other. It was in an old house and the food was fabulous. I think it went out of business or something happened to it - oh well, another great "oldy" place.

See you a Riverview.....

Put us down for two.

Riverview Inn is a Charlotte tradition. You aren't a real Charlottean (native or transplanted) until you go to Riverview. I have been going there since I was in the womb, literally. The buffet is incredible. All sorts of fried fish, more fried fish, and the world's best cole slaw. You will want to smuggle a few hushpuppies or french fries out to feed the ducks in the parking lot. This is NOT allowed but I do it anyway. HA!

Riverview is a ton of fun.
