Boujee as hell but sometimes that's what you need 💅🏻 Their specialty lounge 31 roll is fantastic. This is the place for a nice occasion and to sip on a lil martini 🍸

This gorgeous little gem is on the right hand side after you walk into the lobby of the Adolphus. Plenty of space for lounging or taking a break with a coffee and pastry. You don't have to be a hotel guest to enjoy it!

Massive bar with a rooftop. A little on the clubby side but there's so much space to wander, you can definitely find a quieter spot to mingle if you want.

Farmers market located in the Cedars area. They bring locally sourced products from farmers in the area. Produce selection is excellent, very reasonably priced, and there's a coffee shop in the store! On the weekends they'll have vendors selling taco...
