Sacred Root Kava Lounge & Tea Bar
Tea house
πŸ‘πŸ‘ The drink tastes very special. To me, it mixed the environment of East and atmosphere of West vey well. There aren’t many people at night, so you can have a very great time with your friends. Just few of you can have a nice deep talk. Or a group of you can have a party in a special room.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ James Dean, the owner not the actor, has another great place to add to the many he has partnered to open. He created a place for those of us who appreciate great cocktails, craft beers, and good conversation. A group of my friends and I have been fans of James’ work for years, and so we are excited...

Bike Bar
Bar
πŸ‘πŸ‘ This quickly became my favorite bar after the first couple trips. Twelve craft beers on tap and lots of craft can selections - all constantly rotating.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Great local brewery. There’s a permanent food truck (Silo) outside where you can order and they will bring your food right to your table at the brewery. The food was super unique & delicious. There is ample indoor & outdoor seating at the brewery. Highly recommend!

πŸ‘πŸ‘ The atmosphere really does feel like a watershed! A hathering of studious, garrulous and discerning tastes. A book reading corner, unique and local beers, ciders and wines, and Tammy's famous pickles. Community permeates this place, and is evident in the ads and local events posted. Co-owner Ashley...

The Rhine House
Bar
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Really, this place is a hidden gem and I'm hesitant to even write this review. Great specials, great atmosphere, and local beer. Bartender's are awesome and the location is far away from the college crowd that it seems mainly older students and locals enjoy this place.
