"First Saturdays" are when WAS really shines. The Loading Dock Gallery is worth a shop any day of the week, but when you add five floors across each of three major art studio wings, and hundreds of artists of every medium imaginable, you can spend hours here and never get to it all. Fabric arts. Photography. Painting. Sculpture. Metalwork. Jewelers. A craft brewery in the basement. Food trucks outside. Artists who will talk to you for as long as you want about what they do. Ceramics. Glass. Stuff you can't even describe. It's all here. I've commissioned one-of-a-kind heirloom Chistmas presents for family three years running, and I feel like I have barely scratched the surface. Can't say enough good things. Get there!!!

Lord Hobo Brewing Company

Reviewed By sharrongeg - Henderson, United States

SUCH an awesome place! Hubby and I had a great time. Fantastic beer, great service and really good food. Hubby tried a flight of 6 and was very pleased. I enjoy a nice glass of chardonnay. Design was done extremely well. Electricity/USB outlets between every other seat at the bar. Purse hooks too! Plenty of seating and we understood that outdoor seating is planned. Having onsight food offerings is key nowadays. Pizza was very good and reasonably priced. Free (off street) parking lot was appreciated. Highly recommend!

A wonderful find in Lowell. On the 4th floor you will find a variety of eclectic little shops by local, small business owners. I stopped in to Vinyl Destination and bought two records and went to Coffee & Cotton (see my review for them). On Sundays, they have live music on the 4th floor that they pipe through the entire building. I love that they support local musicians and have different ones each week! On the 5th floor they have a farmers' market on Sundays. There's plenty of parking around and on Sundays parking is free. If you want to support small businesses in Lowell and have a fantastic shopping and hanging out experience, come to Mill No. 5. I saw there is also the Luna Movie Theater here. Will have to go there sometime.
