This is a newer restaurant in town. They have an amazing rooftop area with spectacular views. Happy hour is daily from 3:30-5:30. They have a limited menu with locally sourced foods. (I would not recommend this restaurant for those who follow a vegan/ plant based diet)
They have rooftop live music as well as music in the restaurant occasionally.
*Note: they open at 3:30. During the day they have a workspace available.

Casa Sanchez has great mexican food. They even now have outdoor seating. They are very family friendly and provide great customer service. If you're into margaritas I recommend the natural margarita over the house margarita. Head to safeway and keep your receipt for BOGO margaritas or a deal on entrees. Their fajitas are fantastic!

Tennessee Pass is a great restaurant serving American food. The brussels sprouts are amazing! (even if you don't normally like them) They have a cute little bar with a lot of great beer choices. The large outdoor seating area is great.
*Note: ask if they are out of anything. They are occasionally out of certain things as many ingredients are locally sourced

Retail
Community Threads is an awesome consignment sporting goods store. They have pretty much anything you will need to have a good time outdoors: skis, snowshoes, camping gear, bikes, etc. Definitely a great place to check out. They also have a few handmade items available from local sellers.

The library is a great place to relax, use a computer (they also have color printing), or even enjoy a program.

Mount Massive is a long hike but worth it for the views. The trailhead is easily accessible (and no 4WD is needed in the summer months). The trailhead gets crowded, so arrive early or be prepared to have to walk some to the trailhead. Don't forget to bring enough water!
