What we’re about
IMPORTANT: Meetup is not a dating website. Meetup is about building community, helping people have fun and make new friends. It is not appropriate, therefore, to message someone on Meetup unless you have actually met that person IN REAL LIFE at a Meetup event. --Michael P.
We are the group for singles in the Triangle to meet and enjoy fun events together. With an age range from 21-65+, we have a diverse group of people. <br>
Our goal is to provide events that are welcoming and give singles the opportunity to talk and mingle with other singles in an effort to increase their local singles network and possibly find that special someone.
If you would like to be an event organizer/host for the group, please contact group organizer Michael P: michael623@yahoo.com or 919-727-4588. <br>

El Quetzal Guatemalan Mexican Grill (formerly Roots Bistro) is located in Durham very near Streets at Southpoint. It is less than 2 miles off I-40 (exit 274: Jordan Lake/Hwy 751) in a small strip shopping center on Hope Valley Road (aka Hwy 751).At present, because of the restaurant name change, there is no sign on the building. But it is easy to find: It is a red brick building at the far left end of a small strip shopping center at 4810 Hope Valley Road, Durham. You will see lots of tables with umbrellas outside (the event is inside), and you will see #106 above the main door to the restaurant.
The address for the entire shopping center is 4810 Hope Valley Road, Durham. The shopping center is right beside a CVS Pharmacy. Event venue El Quetzal (formerly Roots Bistro) is at Suite #106, in the same shopping center as Randy's Pizza and Growler Grlz.
Convenient, free parking behind and beside restaurant. Additional parking available across the street, in Woodcroft Shopping Center parking lot.
Please enter via the main door of the restaurant, Suite #106. The event will be in the restaurant's dining room side--NOT in the pool table side of the restaurant.
