My favorite neighborhood to bike to and hang out on a day off! Donuts at Pips or breakfast at Little Griddle, followed by thrifting at Found on Fremont, beers on the patio of Hi-top tavern, throw horse shoes at Wilshire Park (horseshoes in the shed for you to borrow)… lots of possibilities!

Best place to see free/affordable live music 6-8pm! Usually bluegrass and country, but depends on the night. Mixed age crowds with people in their 70’s hitting up the dance floor. Love this venue!!!

I go to see great live music, usually a blues or jazz band is playing on the weekends with a lively and diverse group of people on the dance floor. I’m always delighted at the gusto of the 70+ year olds still cutting a rug! The Prime Rib French Dip is my favorite food here.

Giant delicious mason jar cocktails and a social night scene usually with a DJ on the weekends, but not wild and packed with 21 year olds. Typically diverse patrons in their late 20’s and 30’s. Top notch late night and a bit drunk food!
