The house blueberry latte is to die for! Parea is a great place to hang out with friends and work. The wifi is reliable and there's a lot of seating and plugs for charging if needed.
Paréa Coffee

Jenks' newest coffee shop! The location is the cutest. There's lots of seating and the in-house syrups are a must. The private spaces do have a time limit but you can pay to extend your time if you wish.

The absolute best Thai food in Tulsa! My go to is the fried rice. Be careful on the spice level - it's measured in stars and you can do as many as you want! I'm a 1-2 star girly depending on how I'm feeling.

Any of the In the Raw locations are great but Vu is by far the coolest! It's in the middle of downtown and has a great view of the city. Try to get a spot on the patio if the weather is nice!

The perfect downtown spot to watch your favorite games! They got the typical bar food and a great selection of beers from their brewery. It's also walking distance to a lot of other spots downtown.

Perfect date night spot! The Vault has a really cool retro vibe. Their cocktails are great and the food is always top tier. They also have live music on Thursdays.

A new addition to the Tulsa restaurant scene! Daigoro would be great for a group dinner, date night, really anything. It's nice but not too fancy. The Shaking Beef was my favorite dish!

If you don't get the cheese fries from The Brook, you're missing out. They're perfectly melty, crispy, and just so good. The Brook has class American food that hits every time. There are a few locations around town.

My favorite pizza in town! I typically pick it up and take it home but you could also dine-in for a quick meal. There are multiple locations around Tulsa. The hand-tossed crust is a must!

Personally, I'm a class girly when it comes to workouts so most of my recs will be class-based!

If you're looking to treat yourself, Glo is a must! Think of a head spa like a facial for your scalp. It's magical and overall reasonably priced. It's a quick walk to Brookside too if you want to make a day out of it.
