G’s Favorite Places
When I’m traveling, I really love to hear from locals where the great food, fun & unique shops, and live music is. It’s especially awesome when it’s steps away from where I’m staying. I put this list together that features some of my favorite casual places in my neighborhood.
Free LIVE music & beer garden every Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights from 5-9 in a beautiful garden/nursery. A great variety of quality food trucks available from Indian Food and BBQ to homemade tiny fruit pies and artisan ice cream. There’s something different offered every night. Take home a garden inspired gift or succulent with you.

Custom designed quesadillas and vintage sodas in a casual and cool setting. Perfect for families too. Awesome food at awesome prices. Something for everyone. Even picky eaters can design what they want in theirs. Flour and corn tortillas (great for gluten free eaters) available and several homemade salsas to try.

This ice cream is amazing and offers you the most unique flavors you’ve probably ever tried. It’s a cute little place that is next door to some fun shops, like a vintage record store, gift shop and amazing coffee bar. Fun for kids and adults. Good value.

REALLY great quality coffee drinks, freshly prepared breakfast and lunch sandwiches and pastries. Not the biggest selection on the food, but what they have is superior to coffee chains. Trust me and the locals. Plenty of space to hang out with friends or get some work done. Super friendly staff.
