Drinks & Nightlife
Casual and relaxed scene just across the river. Often has music. There's a fire pit and bbq's outside.
Eclectic outdoor/indoor space right along the river and just a few minutes away! There's music most night, but it's a great place to just go hang out anyhow. A small mexican food venue is on site too.
