Massaman Thai is the best Thai restaurant in Dayton, and it's within walking distance to our home. High quality ingredients, and they can adapt for different dietary needs.

Drinks
We especially love this local bar for karaoke nights, but they have all sorts of specials and events depending on the day. It's worth checking out their Facebook page to see what's happening on any given day. Note they don't have a kitchen - it's just a spot for drinks, darts, and events.
It's within walking distance of your stay, so it's a nice option if you aren't traveling with a car.

Local brewery - try the cauliflower wings! Just a short bike ride from the loft. Lots of patio space, which is nice in the summer.

City/town information
If you have a car during your stay, Yellow Springs has amazing hiking trails and very quaint restaurants. It's Dayton's best kept secret, and you may even run into Dave Chappelle, who reportedly lives in the town.

We are a block from the bike path
Dayton is actually pretty well equipped for cyclists. Certain main roads have bike lanes, and we have a network of bike trails to get around.
