Drinks & Nightlife

One of the top local breweries in town! The Wildflower Wheat, IPA, and Red are recommended. Though the food here is awful, there are usually food trucks parked out front that offer a wide selection.

Ibiza Rooftop Bar. Great views of downtown murals, cool fireside tables... watch out for the prices, dress code, & snooty bar patrons, but the mojito & cucumber-jalepeno margarita are to die for.
