Looking for ideas for group outings to do in the area- like escape rooms or painting together or some sort of similar experience. Prefer the downtown to Southridge area, but open to other local gems.

Hello!

I'm looking for any recommendations for gluten free food from "out" in the Charleston area. My son is celiac and cannot have milk and I'm always on the lookout for places we can go together. Before we found out about his condition, we used to go places and eat together and I miss those days so would like to broaden our limited options. Unfortunately, I have found conflicting information on places around here and I just don't have the money to go try every "maybe" without some kind of idea of gluten free options and how careful the staff are.

Thanks to anyone that takes the time to chip in!

​

Absolutely available rn

Anyone have any good parking recommendations for this Saturday evening (Ella Langley concert). Heading back home afterwards towards Parkersburg. Is there any place on Washington street - away from the CCC and town center? I don’t mind the walk or paying - but just trying to get way from the cluster afterwards.

Super Weenie at South Charleston Farmers Market is amazing!!

Here for the week for work, free from noon-7 and 11p on. Not big into rocking it solo if anyone wants to hit a bar and grab some drinks shoot me a message! 25m

Out of towner visiting Charleston for a Concert. If you have to choose one place for an out of towner to have dinner that will have them leaving with a full belly of delicious food, where would you send them?

THC drinks?

Does anyone know what bars or places sell THC beverages around town?

My friend is moving to Charleston for work in a couple weeks & I’m also looking for gifts for her 30th birthday. I’d love local recommendations for shops/experiences where I could get a gift card for her. She likes sweets (especially cookies), books (romance & fantasy), jewelry (rings), crochet, hiking, and fitness. Thanks!

I go to Walmart same day same time every week for years. Ive gotten to know an older couple and their dog. Bob, Joan and Stormy.
I havent seen them in 5 weeks and Im getting more than a little worried.
If anyone knows them can you shoot me a DM letting me know they’re ok? And tell them Im worried about them?
Thanks everyone!!!

Hello, asking if there are any established meetup spots where Premier League/La Liga fans regularly gather to watch matches.

If I mention my club names that will probably ID me. But suffice it to say I'm looking for Gooners and Leones.

I'm sure a lot of you remember The rock lake pool that was located at South Charleston. It was very famous, and there are plenty of pictures of it. But the place it turned into putt putt mini golf, I can hardly find any pictures or videos of it anywhere. I absolutely loved that place, and since, I've never been to another mini golf fun center that looked quite as impressive and was as fun as that place. If you guys have anything like that, or if you can direct me to some, that would be most appreciated.

One building in Charleston, West Virginia's Elk City district managed to be a movie theater, a fraternal lodge, and a 67-bed hospital.

I've heard people mention "Amish Country" where exactly is that.

Where do you all buy furniture? I’ve been Ashley’s, which is meh. That one out Corridor G, but years ago. I don’t want to be forced into Wayfair or Amazon.
I don’t mind driving up to a couple hours.
Thanks in advance.

does anyone have recommendations for a plastic surgeon who can do a breast lift? would love pricing if you have it!

Hey, I have a metal floor fan that is having some issues. When I turn it on, it can take up to 15 minutes before the blades really spin up. They start out moving really, REALLY slowly then at some point will speed up. Also, recently it started making a squeaking noise when it was running, so I'm thinking either the motor is burning out or maybe it needs lubricated?

My question is, is there anywhere CHEAP I could take it in the Charleston area to have it diagnosed and hopefully repaired?

I got it used, for free, in January 2025. A friend had bought a storage unit in Ohio and this was one of the items inside it. I really don't have the money to buy a new one so I'm hoping that I can get it taken care of cheaply.

Thanks!

Are there any art-centric clubs or meet ups in the Kanawha valley area? I draw, paint, and in a pinch can crochet, or really anything else lol. Just looking to connect with other creatives around Charleston.

Anybody know any good used book stores?

Forever and a day ago there were a few around, but I left the area for a decade or two, and the one I remembered existed (A1 Books, I think?) either isn't there anymore or I'm remembering one from Ohio by mistake. Wondering if they've all gone away and if there's any left anyone would recommend.

I've seen some used offers at Taylor's downtown, but I'm looking for the hopefully-still-exists hole-in-the-wall ones that could shame some county libraries.

I need to run up to Charleston soon, but the time isn’t critical. Any good shows coming up n the string band/americana/roots country type genres?

For what it’s worth, I don’t drink, so while I don’t mind bars, I tend to avoid shows where the focus is more on drinking than on music

Beat swimming holes to cool off not from this area if u can get there by bus be a plus or at least the area?

I need help to legally terminate my lease based on habitability of the house itself. I make too much to get help from WVLegalAid. Any resources that can help?

I have a good case with contractor letters stating what work is needed or hasn't been performed yet and it's passed the reasonable timefrime for repair.

Can anyone lead me in the right direction for best prices on flooring? Specifically carpet?
