Make reservations! Excellent comfort food and the best desserts in town! This was once the soda fountain and eats side of a pharmacy. The pharmacy still exists, but that side of the building has been transformed into an eatery with a mid-century vibe! During Restraunt hours, a curtain is drawn across the pharmacy entry.

The NC Museum of Art is one of the best, most unique art museums in the country. The buildings are artworks in their own right. If you can catch an event at outdoor theatre, do it! Bike to the museum from the greenway blocks from the Alamance Ranch and explore the incredible outdoor park and art exhibits. Eat in the fabulous restaurants and shop for unique finds in the gift shop. And if there are special exhibits, go!

Love taking the train anywhere. The trains coming and going from Raleigh are clean, spacious and, depending on the day of week, uncrowded. Take the train to Durham, a great day-trip. Watch the Durham Bulls AAA baseball, eat and/or drink at the Counting House in the Museum Hotel. Visit the restored Durham hotel and eat at the rooftop restaurant. Durham has a great, artsy vibe!
