Ready to hang out with your cool, older sister? Construction is underway on Plot Twist, an all-day coffee and cocktail bar, coming soon to Plaza Midwood. The new spot aims to be a true “third space,” with the kind of cool, welcoming vibes you’d expect at your older sister’s house — something co-owner Nikki Velazquez says Charlotte is missing.
“I was 20, or 21, and thought about wanting to go to a cool older sister’s house and get advice,” Velazquez explained to CLTtoday. “Places like that don’t exist anymore because we’re not meeting people the way we used to.”
Plot Twist hopes to fill that gap, seating ~80 people and offering snacks like nuts and pretzels, rotating food vendors, THC drinks, and mocktails. Plus, it’ll be steps away from women-owned Trope Bookshop and Wiloe Home & Gift, creating a walkable destination for people to sip, shop, and spend time.
An exact opening date is TBA — keep an eye on your inbox for details.
