Krispy Kreme is from North Carolina, and this is the oldest location still in operation. The original sign is out front and it lights up when donuts are warm. You can bike from the house, or drive. If you have a moment, go inside and watch them make the donuts! The coffee is solid as well.

Not far from the house, the restaurant is called Fine Folks, but really it's the food that is fine! We've wanted a second helping of everything we've tried.

Lyft and Uber
Lyft and Uber from our place are considerably more affordable to downtown venues, concerts, etc than parking. The venues here are really good about having designated drop off and pick up spots.
