Our favorite spot for pasta, sports, and an easy date night. We always split a large Caesar salad and the house Prosciuttio pasta—it never misses.
When we don’t feel like cooking, Thai House is always the answer. Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Thai iced teas, and mango sticky rice are our must-haves.
When we need something quick and delicious, Juan Loco hits the spot. We’re all about the Loco Bowl and al pastor tacos every time.
When we’re walking around Birkdale, bartaco is great for grabbing small bites and drinks. We like sharing tacos, guac, and plantains while enjoying the relaxed vibe.
Due Amici is a bit of a drive, but the food always makes it worth the trip. We never skip the chicken parm pizza, garlic knots, and penne with pink sauce—always hits the spot.
Famous Toastery is our go-to for a relaxed morning in Davidson. We love the Country Benedict and splitting a flight of mimosas to kick off a Saturday.
Lost Worlds Brewing in Cornelius is our go-to for a laid-back hangout. They’ve got a rotating lineup of food trucks and live music, so there's always something new to enjoy.
Birkdale Village has big yards and plenty of spots to hang out, plus a movie theater for catching the latest. It’s also a social district, so you can grab food and drinks—bartaco is our favorite—and take them with you while you shop and explore.
Jetton Park is our go-to for walking Cocoa and Billy around the lake. With plenty of parking, pickleball and tennis courts, lake access, and smooth ADA-friendly paths, it’s perfect for a relaxed day outside.
