Trendy spot with delicious items on the menu, including my personal favorite- the pretzel balls and cheese fondue. They have “yard” games, including ping pong and cornhole.

Drinks & Nightlife

It is technically a restaurant, but I am not a huge fan of their menu. I'd say it’s a great spot to grab a drink without all of the madness of Mill Avenue. Plus, they have a large outdoor patio.

They offer a huge selection of craft beer. You can BYOF (bring your own food). There is a thai place next door and Loving Hut is down the street which is a great vegan/vegetarian spot.
