Food Scene

Relatively cheap and cheerful Thai food nearby. One of our regular spots, great for a casual night out or take-away. Always get the summer rolls.

Vegetarian/Vegan spot. Highly recommend some of the grain bowls in the takeaway case for a fast meal. Or if you have time to wait for an item off the menu, I've never been disappointed.

Generally need reservations unless you can find a spot at the bar. Great farm-to-table menu with impressive flavours. While it can $$$-$$$$, it's an absolute gem.

Parks & Nature

Beautifully maintained city park. Have a picnic or take a stroll in the gardens. There are some nature trails for those looking to explore beyond the manicured lawns and play grounds. There is an overlook with a view down into the Little Miami River Valley. You can watch planes coming in for landing at Lunken Airport. Check out the park website for events.

Great local dog park with large fenced area for big dogs and a separate small fenced area for small dogs. Also a trail that circles the park if you're looking for more exercise. On hot days I often take my dogs down to the Kayak launch spot and let them jump in the Little Miami River for a swim. Just be sure to have a towel, the exit can be a bit muddy!
