Food scene

Great atmosphere for any meal of the day! We highly recommend Carson's for weekend brunch and dinner. They typically have live music, call ahead to check and make a reservation!

An incredible atmosphere that makes you feel like you could be on the coast! You would never know you're just off New Circle Road. Palmer's share's a building with Joseph-Beth Booksellers, a great place to browse (local gifts and adult books upstairs, children's area, gifts, and books downstairs). If you're traveling with kids, they will love feeding the swans and ducks as you wait for a table!
