Food Scene

This Euro-style cafe combines classic techniques with a hip vibe. I love coming here for their vegetarian quinoa breakfast bowl or seasonal chia seed pudding with fresh fruit.

The Neighborhood is the most bang-for-your-buck breakfast/brunch! Open 7am-4pm. Fridays they offer any omelet plus buffet for less than $15. Most meals come with unlimited coffee, OJ, and fruit or cream of wheat. There's usually a line on the weekends but be patient. They also have coffee and baked goodies for you to snack on while you wait. The staff is so friendly- they make you feel like you're apart of their Portuguese family.

The most over the top artisan donuts. Savory, sweet, and salty. They have it all. But hurry, they sell out fast!

Shopping

A hip curated shop. Great for finding local artisan gifts and knickknacks like ceramics, leather goods, wool blankets, Japanese bike bells, succulents plants, beard oils...you get the point.

Cheapest grocery store around. That being said, it can get a little crazy sometimes.

Everything Else

This is my home gym for rock climbing. They also have the usual gym equipment if you need to get your sweat on. Daily passes run around $25 but sometimes I have guest passes so please ask if you're interested.

This market is a great place to go day or night. It's chock-full of hipster things like a brewery, wine bar, vinyl shop, plant store, vintage clothing, vegetarian food, and lots of outdoor seating.
