Things to Do!

Ted's Bulletin

American breakfast.... with homemade pop tarts.

Florida Avenue Grill

We came here the morning after we got engaged! It's been open since 1944 and has the best fried catfish, grits, and wobbly tables this city can offer.

Boundary Stone

One of our local happy hour favorites. Neighborhood pub known for food & whiskey in a vintage setting.

Right Proper Brewing Company

Our first date! Local brewpub in the heart of Shaw, known for its chicken sandwich and bretty suds.

Ben's Chili Bowl

The most historic no-frills spot in the city, known for spicy hot dogs, chili-cheese fries & milkshakes.

The Red Hen

Walking distance from the venue. This is our favorite upscale Italian bar and osteria. We love the homey atmosphere, homemade pasta, and fabulous cocktails.

Bacio Pizzeria

Another walking-distance local pizzeria, Bacio has some creative topping pizza in a super casual atmosphere.
