A small, tucked-away restaurant that serves all sorts of waffle plates (e.g., nutella or thick bacon and avocado). Also has delicious lemonade. Check their website for hours and try and make this an early stop as it can get crowded.

Cute little cones provide the opportunity to get "ice cream flights" where you can sample more flavors. Super yummy and unique flavors, I'd recommend the Banana Storm and White Chocolate Ginger.

"The Champ" is a great option if you like lattes. Just 3 tables at this small stop, but worth a sample! And, for kids, they have a "Party in a Cup" which is whipped cream and sprinkles. Prepare the camera!

On of the most popular coffee roasters in the area (and one of the earliest to the local roasting scene). Great blends and lots of coffee options. They also have a cool outdoor patio right on the street. And...pizza for the afternoon/evening!

Getting Around
Sign up for an account and you can grab a car parked closeby for a quick trip in the coverage area. These electic 2-seater cars are great for downtown trips since you don't have to pay for parking in any of the meter spots, etc. There seems to always be a car within a block or two.
