The brunch at Harmony is to die for. Saturday and Sunday mornings. They use fresh, local ingredients and their recipes are creative and delicious. Great for summer with the open air dining!

Schuba's usually has a good show for a fairly low cover, but if you're just there to drink, good luck finding a chair or a place to stand for that matter. Bring a stool, that's all I'm sayin'.
