Cash only. Best gelato hands down, flavors are unique and fresh. They have a 5$ day old pint special. Great for a long walk to get ice cream and walk back while eating.

Go early or be prepared to wait for a few hours, though it's worth every minute. The upstairs venue has a bar with great cocktails while you wait.

Drop by for primo coffee and also catch some local art hanging on the walls. You might even see local artists working on their sketches here. It's my fave spot to sketch.

My fave music spot. Best dive bar for rock music and honky tonk, if you stick around long enough you will run into the tamale man and can grab 5 tamales for 6$!

Classic "no frills" cocktails served to perfection in this unusual space. A staple hang for a few of my friends. Go early, it gets packed with locals as the evening progresses.

Perfect for walking, biking, running or rollerblading. I am so happy the city completed this raised park. Two blocks north of the Gallery off of Western is an access entry. My favorite way to blow off some steam or get some fresh air and exercise.
