Someone asked me this week if I had a list of black-owned restaurants and food services in WSNC. And, I actually did not. So, I set out to find the restaurants that were.
Support these businesses and the people that own them and the people that work for them. Stand in solidarity with them. Let them lean on you. Let them know you care. Be there for them.
A vast majority of this list I obtained from the Winston-Salem Urban League, for others, I did some digging on my own.
For other black-owned businesses outside the food designation, which still need your help and support can be found here.
A perusing of the Forsyth County Health Inspector’s website showed:
- 795 restaurants (many of which are multiple locations, i.e. McDonald’s, Wendy’s, etc., hospital, hotel foodservice, convenience stores that sell food or other “restaurant types”)
- 249 “Food Stands” (which also include multiple locations like Cook Out, but is for non-dine-in services)
- 27 “Mobile Food” listings which are mostly food trucks
- 14 “Push Carts” which is almost entirely hot dog carts.
If there are ANY businesses that I have left off this list, please let me know so I can add them. I want no businesses left out.
