Rock Bridge State Park
TREE LOVERS: Head to Rockbridge State Park (halfway between Jeff City and Columbia) for a li'l hike on your way in to Jefferson City. Pierpont General Store (nearby) is great for a quick brewski (and they usually have live music in the summer months). It's been around since 1889.
Brunch at Cafe Berlin
HUNGOVER AF? Hit Café Berlin to brunch like you mean it. FUN FACT: they have great vegetarian/vegan options. "Acola" is a cool coffee spot nearby where you can chill and wait for your table to be ready (aaaaaaand they even have food options: bring me that avocado toast)!
Hit the Links
GOLFERS: If you're staying in Columbia Friday night, hit "L.A. Nickell" or "A.L. Gustin" to play a quick 9 holes Saturday morn. Or if you're staying in Jefferson City, check out "Oak Hills Golf Center" or nearby "Eagle Knoll Golf Club" in Hartsburg.
Memorial Park Pool + Pizza
GOT KIDDOS? Have a li'l pool party at Memorial Pool, then do a picnic in the park OR grab some 'za at "West Main Pizza". Another fave pizza joint in JC, MO? "Pizza Underground"!
Coffee + Runge Nature Stroll
NATURE LOVERS: Grab an iced coffee and hit the trails at the local conservation department (trails are easy/paved, but pretty--also great for kiddos). Our fave coffee spot in town? "Three Story Coffee" on 311 Bolivar Street.
11:11 Yoga + Lunch
SAMPLER PLATTER DAY: Get super zen at 11:11 Yoga, then have breakfast or brunch at "High Rise Bakery". FUN FACT: this is where David and I had our very first date! Round out the day with a trip to "Central Dairy Ice Cream Parlor" (est. 1920). It's also a place I made David go when we were first started dating to play board games (which I brought). Sorrrrrry! <--that was the game.
