“Visited on a Wedneaday at 7pm and we were immediately able to get a lane for 5 people. They had a special going which was $19 per person unlimited bowling and shoes included which is a great deal compared to if you visit on a weekend. Staff was friendly but the service was a bit slow. It would take over 30min just to receive one drink but they were always super nice about everything. They had a DJ playing some great tunes and the whole vibe was amazing on a Wednesday evening. Always have a great time coming here. They also have an arcade with a few games to choose from. Plenty of parking as well.”
“If I could give Alexander Homestead more than five stars, I would gift-wrap them in gold and hand-deliver them back to the team. ⭐️
From the very first planning meeting to the last dance of the night, we felt genuinely cared for. As two busy working professionals, the structure and support from Wedgewood Weddings & Events made our planning process feel manageable and bite-sized instead of overwhelming. Every step was organized, clear, and thoughtful. It allowed us to actually enjoy being engaged instead of drowning in spreadsheets.
Sarah, Virginia, and Savannah were phenomenal. Truly. They anticipated needs before we even voiced them, answered every question with patience, and made us feel like our wedding was the only one that mattered. On the day of, Savannah in particular took such intentional care of both me and Kevin. She checked in constantly, kept things flowing seamlessly, and made sure we were present instead of stressed.
As chefs and hotel people, service is everything to us. The attention to detail did not go unnoticed. The team followed our directions perfectly, respected our vision, and executed it beautifully. A moment that meant the world to us was watching the service staff go above and beyond to help my autistic nephew find something “safe” to eat during dinner. That kindness and awareness is not something you can train into people. It’s heart.
We also loved the intentional use of small businesses throughout the process. You can feel that Alexander Homestead values community and craftsmanship, and that matters.
Our day felt seamless, warm, and deeply cared for from start to finish. We walked away not just married, but genuinely grateful.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place and its staff! They made everything so easy and exciting. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and there is pretty much no end to the things they can provide. The owners and staff were so personable and truly made you feel special. I did not stress even once during the entire planning process or day of our wedding. We cannot wait to bring our family back here and relive the amazing memories and make even more!”
“My best friend was in town from NY so we decided to go do axe throwing & it was so much fun ! Isaiah was amazing & made our experience perfect. Will definitely be returning ! Mario/Scott Isaiah definitely deserves a raise !”
“This is my ABSOLUTE favorite place in Charlotte. I come every year for the Prince bday bash and it’s so much fun. The bar service is top notch and the whole atmosphere is fantastic”
“I had an absolutely delightful experience purchasing my new Aura figure skates from Redmond’s Corner! Matt and his exceptional team were not only incredibly friendly and approachable but also demonstrated remarkable expertise. Their warm, down-to-earth demeanor made me feel right at home, and their extensive knowledge ensured I found the perfect skates with ease. I couldn’t be more thrilled with the outstanding service and care provided by this wonderful team!”

“I got out of work a bit early and was in the area and wanted to stop by for a beer. They have an unbelievable selection of beverages, draft beers, and THC drinks as well. Absolutely will start coming here often. The owner Yaz is awesome too!”
“My wedding at PINE was beyond my wildest dreams. The venue was a blank canvas I was able to customize to my vision thanks to the support of the amazing PINE planning team, led by Jessica. 10/10 recommend using PINE for any event in Charlotte.”
“I recently visited the Charlotte Convention Center for ChosenCon 2026. The space is very big and is connected to the NASCAR Hall of Fame. The spaces are large and the place includes a UPS, Starbucks, and a small food court. The place was very clean and had many bathrooms. I recommend going here for events and conventions.”
“I had a unique situation where I had to pivot and find a space in such little time. Eishia was super helpful and ready to assist! We appreciate her kindness and professionalism all the way around! I highly suggest anyone to host their event here in the beautiful and clean space! Did I mention Elegant? Loved my experience!”
“Upscale office, fast WiFi, nice view. Main parking garage pretty expensive and not as much non-office seating as the pictures suggest. Free popcorn today is a nice touch.”

“Hygge is such a great coworking space - great vibe, atmosphere, and everything you need to get work done (quiet spaces, strong wifi, kitchen, and plenty of resources).
Joe is INCREDIBLE! He’s been so supportive and accommodating whenever I’ve needed space for one-off meetings. His professionalism and kindness really make the experience stand out. Highly recommend Hygge, and definitely ask for Joe if you need help getting set up!”
“My daughter had her wedding there and it was perfect! The Venue offers a lot of space. There are areas in a separate house for the bride and groom and the wedding party to get ready (even an overnight option). We had access to the house all day and even had lunch there for the bridal party. The guests were seated looking out over a lake. We had space to have an outdoor cocktail hour and an indoor reception. We had a few family members that were unable to walk and they transported them in golf cart and delivered them right to the wedding and then on to the reception. Michele had lots of decoration options that we were free to use and she helped us to put together table decor that we were happy with. She had it all set up and we didn't have to do anything! She was able to keep the wedding on track, coordinated with caterers, a coffee truck, DJ, photographer, all the different moving parts. After the reception, she helped to have everything packed up from the reception and all we had to do was put it into cars. I would highly recommend considering The Oaks as a wedding venue option. Thank you, Michele!”
“We had our wedding at The Casey and truly could not have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, everything felt seamless, organized, and so thoughtfully executed.
A huge shoutout to Grace, our coordinator, who was absolutely incredible. She kept everything running smoothly, anticipated needs before we even had them, and made the entire day feel completely stress-free so we could actually be present and enjoy every moment.
The entire staff at The Casey was amazing, but we have to specifically call out Antonio, one of the bartenders, who was such a standout throughout the night. He was so funny, personable, and brought such a great energy to the bar. Guests loved him—and the fact that he was remembering people’s drinks and keeping everything moving so smoothly made such a difference. It didn’t go unnoticed!
The food was absolutely incredible—so many of our guests are still talking about it—and the drinks were consistently great all night long.
Overall, the team at The Casey went above and beyond in every way. Everyone was attentive, professional, and genuinely kind, and they made our wedding day feel so special from beginning to end. We are so grateful and would recommend them to anyone without hesitation!”
“Hands down one of my favorite stores in Charlotte! I love getting the Shea Butter and the oils. Quality products and the owner has the best smile. So inviting and unique”

“Our group had a fantastic evening at our recognition dinner. Staff was friendly and service was orderly and on time. The grounds were in ideal condition. Would recommend again.Walkability: They had a path for HC scooters to enter the rose garden from the parking lot.Food & drinks: chicken was super tender.”
“Awesome experience provided by Slate trucks! Representatives were passionate and knowledgeable. Look the concept. Have 2 reservations. Can't wait to test drive them in 2025 and hopefully take delivery before 2026 year end. Size is perfect for basic worktruck. Hoping the price stays less than $30k with the extended battery.”
“This is the second time we’ve done an experience like this.
This, Dickens, a Christmas Carol that’s my favorite! The actors and acting were superb! Not to mention hysterical! Cocktails were delicious and we’ve even recreated a couple of them. The fact that five people do everything that’s amazing! Great time great time!
Not the best pictures! And I wish I’d gotten more of the cocktails!”
“Went to the Belk Theater to see the Lion King! It was so amazing & emotional. I've wanted to see this play for over a decade & it didn't disappoint. The staff was the best; they operated like a well-oiled machine. We were able to pay for parking at the theater & drive right out afterward with no delay! Will return to this venue!”

“We just had our wedding at TLR, and the entire experience was truly seamless from start to finish. From my very first inquiry over a year ago, to the final planning meetings, to walking in on the wedding day and seeing everything exceed my expectations—TLR delivered every step of the way.
During the event, we were actually able to relax and enjoy ourselves, yet anytime we needed something, the staff were easy to find and incredibly helpful. The add-ons and accommodations were reasonably priced, and all payments were communicated clearly and transparently.
If you’re looking for a venue with a warm, rustic charm and a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect, I highly recommend TLR.”
“My husband and I had our wedding here on 6/14 and it was the best decision we made. The venue is amazing and beautiful. I can’t say enough good things about Anano. She made sure our wedding was perfect. The food was AMAZING. We get told almost everyday by our guests our wedding was the best wedding they have ever been too. The staff were so friendly and nice. They went above and beyond for us. Thank you AGAIN to Anano and the BCC staff for making our wedding a day we will never forget!”

“Always go to the Christmas market!! Never remember how to get there. Luckily there’s our GPS. Fun fair. Strudel is yummy. Lots of stuff to look at: beautiful decorated trees. Cool shops.”
“Always a great time at the Neighborhood Theater. Lots of shows are general admission, standing room only. At my age, I always pick shows that have reserved seating.
Several good restaurants within walking distance. Some free parking in the area but plenty of paid parking available. Pick a show and go have fun!”
“The Revelry: Everything sparkles under a chandelier...and my oh my The Revelry is filled with them. Classy, elegant and just stunning! From start to finish, the experience was flawless. Huge shoutout to Crystal who went above and beyond and quite frankly the fastest email responder ever. The food was AMAZING! Our guests had a wonderful time and it was so lovely to host our wedding reception in our hometown of Charlotte in the most spectacular venue! Thank you to the entire team!!”
“We always have our annual company christmas party here and it's always a great time. It is located in the heart of uptown, right in front of the City Center Marriott Hotel. The parking deck is actually off 4th St. Right in front of Pearl Dentistry. The place is always decorated beautifully and with a great venue room. Beautiful views of the Charlotte skyline. It was always a great time.”
“Working from home has its perks, but socialization is not one of them! A Community Membership at Venture X gives me the opportunity to change up the scenery every once in a while, get a nice cup of coffee, interact with interesting folks, and take advantage of regular breakfasts and happy hours. The staff is great, to boot - Lorena and McKenna go out of their way to ensure everyone's experience is a positive one, and there's always candy on the reception desk :-). If you're looking for a co-working spot in the Ballantyne area, look no further!”
“Great experience. Went above and beyond to make our event great. Assisted with every aspect of the event. Was clear when we were planning and preparing. Id use them again.”
“Recently stayed at Aloft in Ballantyne with work. We were all so impressed with Stephanie, the bartender. Even when it was busy, she was all over it and provided amazing service, all while being friendly and personable!”
“This is such an amazing restaurant the young ladies Winner, Dee Dee that work there are so courteous and polite I haven’t had great customer in Charlotte since the early 90’s and the cleanliness and auto of the environment is so great !”
“I just had my wedding here and it was all I could have wanted and more. The house is beautifully preserved and decorated. Bill was so helpful with renting and the money you spend goes to keeping this house in the impecable condition it is in. 10 out of 10.”
