Meg Charity and Barrett Worthington founded modern pickleball social club Rally in 2023. Now, the two are opening up a new restaurant next door to Rally in Lower South End, according to a release. They are partnering with Andres Kaifer, who is behind Charlotte favorites like Customshop and Marina’s Tapas. The new spot is expected to open this summer.

“We started Rally to foster community in Charlotte,” Worthington said in the release. “We love the social aspect of food and this restaurant will help us share our passion for cultivating community, similar to the energy felt at Rally everyday. Andres’s incredible talent and expertise alongside our personal love for Customshop made the choice to work with him clear.”
