Things To Do
Bowdies Chophouse
You can't visit the midwest without going to at least one spot for oversize steaks and "midwestern style" old fashioneds, right? This is it.
The Creole Burger Bar & Southern Kitchen
Burgers, beignets, and bourbon, all in a central location that makes it easy to explore Lansing's Old Town.
Old Town
A fun Lansing neighborhood with a riverwalk, boutiques, galleries, and great restaurants (find Lauryn at The Creole with a plate of oysters and a Martini)
Strange Matter Coffee
Our favorite coffee place in Lansing -- and one of our earliest date spots!
El Azteco
Is Lansing known for its authentic Mexican cuisine? No it is not. But do we have an iconic tex-mex establishment with a fantastic rooftop where you can drink margaritas the size of your head? Yes. Yes we do.
Michigan State Capitol
If you didn't know that Lansing is the capitol of Michigan... now you do. Take a tour of the building -- it's actually pretty impressive and interesting (especially if you did not, you know, grow up going on a field trip there every single year like Lauryn and James did).
