Tips from locals
Trendy area to check out. Many places to eat at. Nightlife leans more towards college kids and young professionals.
Shopping and brunch for the day, bars for the evening (mostly college scene at night)
Definitely a place for the college set! Lots of places to eat and listen to music...lots of life on the weekend!
College bar scene, gets crowded at night but a nice spot to go before midnight.
The Soda City Connector is a free Shuttle that connects 5 Points, The Vista, and Main Street. I'd recommend parking in 5 Points Saturday morning, taking the Shuttle to Soda City Market, then returning for brunch at The Gourmet Shop. The Shuttle is intended to promote shopping, exploring, and tourism so only runs limited hours during the day.
