Really Good Food and casual vibe. Love their beer selection. Try their stouts, and it sounds weird, but their pineapple beer is blended just right (if you are looking for a light and easy to drink beer)

Great vegetarian dishes (meat dishes too). You can eat traditionally on low seats, but they also have regular tables and bar seating. They were super popular in Boulder until Google forced them out, and they chose Lafayette. Lucky us.

Boulder Creek Park and trail is part of a very large Boulder Country trail system through many towns. In Boulder you can rent bicycles along the creek and drop them off either at the same place, or at another bike drop off. Really enjoyable and you will be commuting like a native.
