We appreciated the wide range of choices for both beer and liquor. The bartender was helpful in guiding our decisions.

Slainte Public House

Reviewed By 810teresar

I can't speak highly enough about this awesome downtown pub! I feel so fortunate to have this place in my hometown. Whether it is just a drink after work or listening to a great band on the patio, this is the spot! Lots of times they have a food truck out front with a nice bar food selection. Our favorite spot is on the patio, but if that isn't your thing there are spots inside for gathering as well. Stop by and see these friendly folks and you will be glad you did!

Reviewed By roadtripjunkie1305 - Amory, United States

There were all kinds of neat nooks and crannies to explore. My husband even seemed to enjoy this shop. It was pouring rain the day we visited so what better thing to do on a rainy day? The people that were attending the checkout were very friendly too. There was a lady with a very rambunctious kid and the lady at the check out handled him great. Hope you enjoy your visit too!! Found a beautiful cut glass piece for my mom too. Very reasonably priced

Yuko-En on the Elkhorn

Reviewed By 978jbs

Another hat tip to Tripadvisor! So I woke up in my Georgetown hotel and hit up Tripadvisor for "things to do" in the area and found this place. Although this is a small park it is laid out in Japanese Zen style and it if very relaxing. I found it great for rebalancing. Peaceful and serene. The environment here allows for reflection and introspection. These are not just my words but my teen and better half agree. This was the absolute best unplanned stop of our trip. Pros: Easy to walk thru and doesn't take up much time; its right along the Elkhorn; even has a bathroom on the grounds. Cons: Nothing here to really tell you why its here; can sometimes hear traffic noise as it is near a fairly busy road but do not let it deter you - its very easy to overlook.
