Really good food in a funky atmosphere. We love the seafood there, but they also do a great NY Strip steak. And they have a $10-15 corkage fee, which is nice.

Shopping
https://carrmillmall.com/
Historic mill building that has been converted to a small shopping "mall" with a variety of interesting stores (everything from a bead shop, adventure/outdoor store, to upscale women's clothing and sewing shop). Don't miss Oasis, which is an amazing place serving coffee, tea, Kava, etc., that often hosts events/speakers. And a local co-op (Weaver Street Market) is in the same complex. A few restaurants are on site as well.

Considered a "Creative Reuse Arts Center," but it's hard to describe. They have all kinds of stuff that people donate (for sale) - some of which are great for creative projects, but it goes beyond that even.
