My parents just visited me over Easter weekend, so I thought I’d share some of my favorite places to go with them!
- Pullman Bar and Diner:
Pullman’s has really good food and is right downtown! I’ve only been for dinner, but I usually split a steak and fries with my mom and the banana foster bread pudding with my dad. - Mickey’s Irish Pub:
Is another restaurant that is downtown. It’s a super chill and nice place to grab a quick bite to eat. It also has a pretty large menu, so there are a lot of options. - Big Grove Brewery:
Big Grove Brewery is a fun place to go, especially if it’s warm enough to sit outside. The food is also super good.
- Bluebird Diner:
Bluebird is super great for breakfast or brunch. It’s not necessarily downtown, but it’s just a walk away from the East side dorms, which is convenient. It’s usually pretty busy but I promise the food is worth the wait. - The Encounter Cafe:
Encounter is another great option for breakfast or lunch. I’ve never heard anyone say they’ve had a bad item off their menu. There’s usually a line, but it moves quickly, and there’s usually plenty of seating.
I hope you enjoy my recommendations!
