I am new to Charlotte and trying to meet some people around my age. I am mid 20s and looking for a place that has a "relaxed" like feel to it where people are walking around, sitting on benches, and just enjoying the night/day. I've been to promenade on providence and that looked really promising, but there weren't many people there.
I am not into the club scene so I am not interested in Epicenter.
I did like freedom park, but I'd like if there were venues (coffee, maybe place to grab a drink, ect) within walking distance of whatever place this is.
I live near Indian trail, so the closer the better.
Like I say, I've been to some like the arboretum, but it was just deserted. Nobody was around!

In the south Charlotte area (which is NOT all bland folks as stated above ) look at Stonecrest, especially once the summer rolls around when they do free live music on Friday evenings. But also, check out the Starbucks there, lots of 20-somethings there at times. Also, check out Bailey's. They do beer pong there on Sunday nights and lots of people your age show up.
Any other places? I've actually been to Bailey's. I liked it, but felt weird going to a bar alone and everyone else there was with people lol.
Also check out Sir Edmond Halley's in the Park Rd. Shopping Center. They do a trivia night that I've heard is a lot of fun and really popular with your age group.
Also, pick up a copy of Creative Loafing (most grocery stores have them) and check out what's going on around the city each week.
And finally, consider joining CHOA - Charlotte Outdoor Adventures. This is a very active group and many people show up as singles to it. You can just pick an activity to participate in and start meeting people
