Great beer selection, tons of taps and lots of local selection. Food is pretty good as well and it's a nice cozy atmosphere. Fills up pretty quick during dinner time, even on the weeknights!

Most nights they have some sort of music/dj here. It's nice it's not downtown and too busy. It's reasonably priced drinks too and is close by to a lot of other fun bars and places to eat.

Parks & Nature
Really fun to go visit the falls right in the middle of the city. Beautiful paths to walk all around. In the summer they have a restaurant as well there that is great and has a ton of seafood and wine/beer. Fun little half-day visit.
