Food scene
Just a few blocks to this full-service wonderful Irish restaurant. They bring in authentic Irish bands that stay on-site. They also have a beautiful outdoor patio scene with fire pits and an awesome koi pond! Make sure to get the chips with malt vinegar! The herb encrusted salmon is my favorite. In the mood for a sandwich, get the Russell Street Reuben!

Probably the oldest outdoor farmers market west of the Mississippi River. Enjoy all the vendors offering fresh fruit, veggies, bread, spices, and day old beer (yes, you read that right!).
