Hey All,
In Charlotte for the weekend! My wife and I are contemplating moving (both 26 YO) this summer and would love to hear some local input on must see/experiences and restaurants! We are staying in Noda but want to check out the main sites of the whole city 😄… thanks in advance everyone !!

Charlotte Beer Garden is a great place to see our city's business creatures.

Since you're staying in Noda, make sure to check out Lang Van. It's a little piece of the Charlotte I grew up in, and an excellent Vietnamese restaurant.

Freedom Park is an absolutely beautiful (and free) experience and not to be missed. You'll see lots of locals and their dogs!

Also, make sure to check out the events at the Bechtler Museum http://m.bechtler.org/mobile/events/ they have awesome jazz nights in the gallery, something I feel is a unique Charlotte experience. PM me if you are looking for more suggestions!

So helpful! Thank you for the extra personal and local touch 😄

Thirsty Beaver is the best known dive bar on Central. It’s what small bars in the south used to be full of 80s kitch & nascar memorabilia. Small, chill & fantastic jukebox. Moo n’ Brew across the street if you’re hungry.

Might I ask where you’re moving from and what interests you most about Charlotte?

Yeah! Moving from DC. The big draw to Charlotte would be the finance career opportunities, being significantly more affordable than DC, better weather. It seems to check all of our boxes 😊

Haberdish in noda is a great place to go just make reservations ahead of time. Or good year house
