This chain is excellent for people with allergies. They have a book containing every single ingredient in every dish, so that you can be sure not to select anything containing your allergens. It's vegan and has raw menu items as well. The desserts are quite nut heavy (cashews/almonds), and there are cashew milkshakes also.

One of the things I like most about this place is that they use local beef and bison in their burgers & other menu items.

This is one of my favorite coffee shops. Great coffee, cake, pastries, and sandwiches. On a nice day, you can go to the tiny patio in the back or sit in the row of chairs out front and meet new people.

This is one of my two favorite coffee shops. The few food items aren't my favorite, but the coffee is, and you can get great food next door at Grinders. There's a patio out back, a second floor with couches, a private room, and a balcony. They also have a full bar for a different evening vibe. Closed Sundays

This is an upscale thrift store. I'm not much of a clothing shopper myself, but I once got ~9 pairs of jeans & shorts for around $100. That's bargain shopping!
