Check out the fun and funky thrift stores all along Cary Street! We highly recommend stopping by Shyndigz Dessert Shop for a sweet treat while you're in the neighborhood!
Fun fact: Meg lived in The Fan neighborhood of Richmond during her time working as a travel nurse in the area. The Fan District is home to the largest intact Victorian neighborhood in the U.S. We recommend grabbing a latte from one of The Fan's many local coffee shops and going for a leisurely stroll to check out the adorable architecture and incredible local businesses. Some of Meg's favorite places to visit in The Fan are Celladora Wine Bar, Garnett's Restaurant for a picnic lunch, Idle Hands Bread Company, Scoop Ice Cream, and Strawberry Fields Flowers and Finds.
