Downtown Raleigh has a new weekly tradition, and it’s the perfect way to kick off your week. The “Meet Me at Slim’s” Monday Neighborhood Mingle invites locals, downtown workers, and visitors to gather at one of Raleigh’s most iconic bars for a relaxed evening of conversation, community, and classic Slim’s energy. Happening every Monday throughout December—December 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29 from 5–10 PM—this weekly event is designed to bring the neighborhood together for good drinks, good people, and good vibes right in the heart of downtown.

Located at Slim’s Downtown, 227 S Wilmington Street, this Monday hangout is the perfect mix of casual and cool. Guests are welcome to arrive right at 5 PM, or even a bit earlier since Slim’s opens at 4:30 PM for the early crowd. Whether you’re unwinding after work, meeting friends for a laid-back meetup, or looking to mingle with fellow Raleigh locals, Slim’s sets the tone for a fun, easygoing Monday night. Plus, the night’s signature highlight—the “Meet Me at Slim’s” drink special featuring Mind Erasers—is available all night long.

Slim’s Downtown is known for its timeless atmosphere, strong drinks, and no-frills charm. Open weekdays from 4:30 PM to 2:00 AM and weekends from 1:00 PM to 2:00 AM, it serves as one of Raleigh’s longest-running hubs for nightlife and community connection. The Monday Mingle continues that legacy by creating a weekly space where neighbors can relax, socialize, network, and feel right at home.

If you’re looking to get plugged into Raleigh’s downtown scene or simply want to enjoy an after-work wind-down with friendly faces, “Meet Me at Slim’s” is the Monday tradition you’ll want to add to your calendar. Stop by, grab a Mind Eraser, meet new people, and experience the authentic Raleigh vibe—right on Wilmington Street.
