DISCOVER THE DELIGHTFUL

The appeal of Cabarrus County’s smallest town is spelled out in its name. From history to home-cooked meals, the area is packed with pleasant experiences.

At downtown’s 73 & Main, diners can indulge in meals made with fresh ingredients sourced from local farms. Located inside a former hosiery mill, the restaurant also features brews from onsite Old Well Brewery and spirits from nearby Southern Grace Distilleries. As a former prison, the distillery offers unique tours along with tastings of their award-winning whiskey.

Within walking distance of downtown, find retreat at The Inn at Mount Pleasant. Built circa 1920, this four-room B&B is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and features beautiful gardens and a porch where you’ll feel right at home. Fuel up with homemade breakfast before setting out to explore spots like the Eastern Cabarrus Historical Society Museum where each room archives a different aspect of the region’s history.

Some of the destination’s most picturesque landscapes can be admired in eastern Cabarrus County. A segment of the Carolina Thread Trail, the out-and-back Buffalo Creek Preserve Trail provides an opportunity to hike or bike through a restored Piedmont oak savanna, farmland, and along Adams Creek while taking in the peaceful natural surroundings.
