in this sentence, "où" is a relative pronoun, giving additional information about the previous location

alright, but after où, we have se retrouver which means ' to meet '

Is that correct?

Also, could you please tell me what he says @ 2:44. I suspect the captioning is incorrect.

Thanks a lot @vivid lark !!

"un lieu où se retrouver" basically has the same meaning as "un lieu où l'on peut se retrouver"

It is fine to use an infinitive after où in French, although English doesn't seem to allow it

[modest mountain]

whoa... so there should be a l'on but we don't write it.. that's confusing !

[orchid quest]

It's not that there should be one. Both "où se retrouver" and "où l'on peut se retrouver" are grammatically valid, and they happen to have pretty much the same meaning.
