Carboy has a perfect patio for happy hour + an amazing board and bottle special. Their house red is a favorite of mine. Have a couple glasses and be able to walk home, can’t beat it!

Legitimately one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. And don’t get me started on the malted milk brownies or cookies. This place is the perfect stop before or after a trip to the Art Museum!

I try to grab a meal here every chance I get. This is the place I take out-of-towners because it’s sure to impress. Technically it’s vegetarian/vegan but even carnivores wouldn’t notice or care, it’s that good.

A great reason to explore the Highlands neighborhood. Their food is incredible and they’ve got a great cocktail menu. Plan to Uber or take public transit if possible. Parking is kind of tough, plus you can have a cocktail or two!
