Great spot for a burger, beer, & whiskey. A little bit rock & roll with a neighborhood vibe. The pool table in the back is a nice bonus!

A great spot for breakfast or weekend brunch that also serves lunch, & dinner. New Mexican style food done simply & well at a great price. The portobello mushroom breakfast tacos are my favorite!

Upscale vegetarian restaurant open for dinner and weekend brunch. Small plates are the concept, so it's a great place to go with friends to indulge in the seasonally changing menu.

Shopping

A vintage store with an array of amazing finds! Glassware, games, furniture & probably anything else you can think of are found amidst clothing. I stop in often as new things are always appearing.
