Food scene
Awesome lunch/dinner spot for carry out or carry-over to Lake Ann Brewing. You can even order online via the link on their fb page. In the summer, wait times on pizza can get pretty long, plan to order a solid hour before you’re hungry! Time passes quickly listening to the live music at Lake Ann Brewing or playing at Burnett Park across the street
