To clubs and popular bars? No, they don't. Most of the women that go to those nowadays are painfully mid, tacky, and trashy.
If you want to see hot women in that age range, go to gym or health food stores.
There are women ages 26-35 going to nightlife venues in big USA cities. Some are attractive. There are Instagram feeds that show that these attractive in their late 20s to mid 30s are going out to nightlife venues.
Gyms and fitness studios/fitness classes will have attractive women 26-35. These venues can be problematic for men.
On the general gym floor, nearly all women who are attractive will be wearing earbuds/headphones to discourage approaches from men. As a side benefit, they get to enjoy their own music as compared to the music that the gym plays over its speakers. Headphones/earbuds at the gym is not a music issue. If it were, there would be more men at the gym wearing earbuds/headphones. Most men are fine with listening to the music that their gym plays over the speakers. Women are motivated to use earbuds/headphones as a method of discouraging male approaches.
On the gym floor, men have a tough challenge with the earbud/headphone problem. Some men will go forth with approaching and it will usually not go well. It will often result in a harsh rejection. The only men who might be able to get away with this are very good looking men. Remember, there is data out there that women rate 80% of men below average.
Going to a gym fitness class or a standalone fitness studio concept is a way for men to work around the earbud/headphone problem. That alone has some value. Additionally, fitness classes have a majority female audience, regardless of the fitness class format. While the two things I've mentioned are advantages, they don't add up to a lot in the real world. It's very difficult to get extended conversations and arrange first dates as a result of attending fitness classes.
Women are not very sociable at fitness classes, either before or after class. Even with that, fitness classes are not a waste of time, as a man will get a solid workout out of class attendance. However, it is a poor use of time for trying to arrange dates for most men. I've never heard of a man doing very well at a fitness class for getting dates.
In the thread below, fitness classes were rated as an F Tier way to go out and meet women for dating/sex purposes. Additionally, the cooking classes that
@oc16 has recently attended were also rated in the F Tier. Fitness classes do have better looking and younger women attending as compared to cooking classes.
Here is the complete list, ranked in order of best to worst: S-Tier: - Throwing an event or party - Instagram Cold DM- Creating Content on Instagram and Boosting it - Paying a club promoter to introduce you to women - Being famous, even just small-time locally famous - Being a musician A-Tier...

It's also good to discuss health food stores. In the USA, larger brands in this space would be considered Whole Foods, Sprouts, Trader Joe's, and Natural Grocers. I have done approach sessions at these types of stores, alongside more traditional supermarkets.
There will be attractive 26-35 year old women here. It will often take extended visits to these stores to get enough approach opportunities. In the book "Day Bang", Roosh talked about how he would spend entire afternoons in grocery stores to do approaches. I never spent entire afternoons in stores, but I have done things like spent 1 hour in a grocery store on a Saturday, and then 1 hour at a different store on a Sunday for approaches. I would buy groceries at each store on those approach sessions.
In general, Whole Foods/Sprouts type stores will have more attractive women than Walmart/Kroger/Albertsons brand stores but it's not a substantial difference. At all store types, it will take a long time to get in enough approaches to set up dates.
As I’ve said, men with women met their women through the course of everyday life or OLD.
They didn’t pound the pavement cold approaching or speed date.
Men with girlfriends/wives often met them through their social circles or swipe apps.
Approaching strangers is a very inefficient play and takes a lot of real life effort. OLD (aka swipe apps now) is probably more inefficient of a play for most men but men have the advantage of sitting at home looking unpresentable to start a lot of interactions.
Using dating websites/dating apps has replaced a lot of in-person approaching in the last 15-20 years. There is a diminished in-person approaching culture now as compared to the mid to late 2000s.
By "everyday life", you probably don't mean a lot of focused bar approaching. Focused non-bar approaching has always been a niche activity, even in the 1990s-2000s.
There is some insight into pounding the pavement, from Tom Torero prior to his death.
Today’s article is written by my favorite daygame guy, Tom Torero. There is also a FREE audio component to this article, available for everyone. Tom will also be replying in the comments. Take it away, Tom!

What kind of realistic expectations should you have? Well, depending on your starting point, your mileage will vary. But a solid daygamer should be able to get a number from 25% of the girls he approaches. Out of those numbers, 25% should come out on dates. And from those dates, 25% should end up in his bed. If you think those statistics are depressing then look at your ratios for Tinder or dating sites.
Based on this, a daygamer would need to approach 75 women to get 19 phone numbers, 4-5 dates, and 1 new sexual partner. That's using a strong systematic approach like the London Daygame Model. I think a lot of daygamers need to approach more than 75 women to find a new sexual partner. In a better case scenario, it would realistically take most men a while to do the 75 day approaches to find a new sexual partner. Additionally, in going through this, one would probably want that sexual partner to last for some amount of time based on the effort it takes to approach 75 women in non-bar venues.
Few men 'spam' daygame anymore. I've never seen a 'spam' daygamer in action in my city and I live in one of the biggest cities in the USA. I have done daygame approach sessions in some of the most notable daygame spots in my city. When I do daygame sessions, I am a little bit more selective with my approaches. In a 2 hour session outdoors on a popular walking path, I might only do 5 approaches.
I think that most daygamers will need to do over 100 approaches to get a sexual partner and it will take a lot of time to do that. I don't think most men can 'spam' daygame to shorten that time and I don't think there's a desire on the part of most men to 'spam' daygame.
An analysis of nightlife venue approaching is likely to turn up similar numbers.
While someone can get a girlfriend/wife from approaching a lot of strangers in real life, it is Game on Hard Mode. Using swipe apps is also the same thing (Game on Hard Mode). It's a bit of a pick your poison choice there.
I also think speed dating has a horrendous track record for forming couples.
