Ready to upgrade your Girls Night Out from the usual drinks and dinner? We’ve scoped out the best places at the Lake if you’re looking to do something different with your squad. Here’s our top picks:
Barre to Bar in Birkdale Village & Mooresville:
Want to grab a great workout before the drinks start flowing? Take an evening class at Pure Barre in Birkdale or at the Mooresville location (off Brawley School Rd) with your friends and then head to one of the many restaurants in the area. Working out is always better with friends, AND when followed by drinks.
Scoop tip: Hit up the Birkdale location on Wednesday evening and then head to Eez Sushi for 1/2 price wine night. Take a class in Mooresville and try Bad Daddy’s or the Famous Toastery.
Bring the Shopping to you with The Pink Boutique:
Want to spend time with friends but also really need to go shopping? (I mean, who doesn’t need to go shopping?!) Call The Pink Boutique – LKN’s favorite fashion truck and book a private party at your house. Invite your friends for wine and snacks and get a second opinion from your bestie before you buy it. All items are $45 or less in sizes ranging from x-small to 3xl. The hostess gets 10% of the total sales in free clothing – it doesn’t get better than that! Check out their great styles on Facebook and Instagram.
Get Crafty and a Little Tipsy:
It’s always fun to have a memento of a great night out. If you want to catch up with friends while unleashing your creativity, the Lake’s got some great options. Sweetgrass Home in Mooresville hosts monthly craft nights with different themes. If bling is your thing, Ain’t Miss Bead Haven in downtown Mooresville has a huge selection beads, charms, and more to create the perfect piece of jewelry. If you’re most artistically inclined, you can head to Wine & Design and Cafe Elie in Cornelius for their painting parties.
Cooking classes:
If you want to learn some new skills in the kitchen while catching up, Sur la Table and Savory Spice Shop (both in Huntersville) have a selection of different classes each month – from International cuisine to dessert-themed nights.
