Mike will always recommend a stop at The District to experience the cheese curds. (Pro tip: do this AFTER the wedding day because a food baby is inevitable.)
Prefer a rainbow vibe? Downtown’s got Scooters, Eau Claire’s one and only LGBTQ+ bar. A true local treasure.
If you’ve ever wanted to relive your college glory days (or at least observe them in the wild) head to Water Street for a lineup of bars all conveniently located on one walkable stretch.
There’s also some beautiful parks in the area if you’re into nature and stuff.
