Snowdonia is very unique! They have great beer on tap, as well as some food you won't find anywhere else. Try the hummus fries and a boozy smoothie!

Best Thai food in the area in my opinion! They have an amazing Thai brunch as well that comes with 3 drinks. I recommend the Pad Thai Omlette!

Drinks & Nightlife

This is our favorite brewery! They have 13 beers on tap consistently and every single one is amazing. It is a tiny spot, so you may have to stand as they have only been open 3 years, but the beer is worth it! Also they are dog friendly.

This craft beer bar is our favorite place to go on a Saturday afternoon before a movie or after lunch. It is right when you get off the Tramway, so its a convenient first stop in Manhattan. They ONLY have craft beer, so don't go in looking for Bug Light.

Parks & Nature

Rainy Park is just 1 block away and across the street. It is a large, dog and child friendly park along the east river with a beautiful view of Manhattan. A lovely place to have a picnic when the weather is nice.

This park is almost a museum! There is always art on display that changes with the seasons. In addition, there is a small farmers market on the weekends during the summer.

You need a membership card to shop at Costco, but not for the liquor store or food court! They have wine and liquor at amazing prices separated from the main store. The liquor store is called "K&H Liquors"
