Things To Do
Dame's Chicken & Waffles
A GSO Staple! The best chicken and waffles in the Triad!
Scrambled Southern Diner
Greensboro's best brunch spot! This place gets packed at 10am, so either come early or come late! Biscuits the size of your head with a very southern breakfast menu!
Common Grounds
Need a good cup of coffee? Common Grounds has it! We live near here so it is a common place we like to go to day to day for good coffee!
Hops Burger Bar
Classic burger joint with a few southern twists. Justin's order is the Spicy Goat w/ Poutine Fries and Chelsea gets the Veggie Pattie and Truffle Fries!
Nazareth Bread Co and Restaurant
Best Gyro in town - this guy has also won a ton of awards for his food!
Van Loi II
Hole in the wall Vietnamese food for Phu and BBQ Pork and Duck. Need we say more?
Mizumi Hibachi and Sushi
Located in the State Street Area, this is our favorite All-You-Can-Eat sushi joint in Greensboro. Can't go wrong whenever you go to Mizumi!
Fisher's Grille
A new favorite of ours! If you're looking for good bar food, sports, and drinks! This the local vibe for sure!
Joymongers Brewing Co.
One of the bars Chelsea and I went to for our first date. This is where we had our first beer together after meeting!
Westerwood Tavern
Our favorite dive bar! They have the best karaoke on Friday nights.
Doggos Dog Park & Pub
Our local dog park AND bar! If you're traveling with any of your furry friends, they're more than welcome to come visit as long as you have your vaccination records with you (distemper and rabies). Let your dog let loose and grab a beer!
International Civil Rights Center & Museum
Built on the original site of the "Greensboro 4" protests, this place has so many beautiful stories to tell. Of all the places in GSO, this is one of our absolute favorites.
Greensboro Science Center
A great place to go exploring! It's a science center, aquarium, and zoo all together! Who would've thought that this was one of our favorite places to check out in GSO. Pictured is my cousin Marc and his son Cole (my godson) in the dinosaur exhibit at the museum.
City of Greensboro - Country Park
The park we go to the most because of their almost 3 acre dog park. It is place with a 3 mile paved walking trail. It has paddle boats, a carousel, picnic areas, and parks for children. Justin is probably there at least 2-3 times a week running the dogs.
LeBauer Park @ Greensboro Downtown Parks, Inc.
A place Chelsea and I frequent with the dogs with their dog park. There is also a great park for children and a couple coffee/alcohol spots at the park.
Center City Park @ Greensboro Downtown Parks, Inc.
In the heart of downtown, another great place to walk to. Near Lebauer park as well in downtown. You'll find a few shops around the corner going south on elm.
Greensboro Arboretum
Another beautiful park that we head to for walks with the dogs!
Friendly Center
Great place for shopping if you forget something for the wedding. There is even a coupe grocery stores in the middle of the shopping center if you're staying at an AirBnb in town. You can find restaurants, shops, a movie theatre, and a mechanic too!
Downtown Greensboro
Downtown Greensboro has a lot to offer with local shops, bars, and restaurants. A great place to walk around and kill time if you're looking to grab a drink or putts around in any of the shops. There is also a social district in place in the city of Greensboro meaning you can walk around downtown with a drink in your hand before 9pm.
transform GSO
Still need to get some work done? transform GSO is a great co-working space for those who are coming into Greensboro earlier in the week, but need to work remote still. They offer day passes with Wifi, an entire coffee bar, beer taps, kitchen, and private rooms for meetings and phone calls all included with your day pass.
