We are MetroWest's premier bouldering facility offering climbing, fitness, and yoga. We are bouldering-only which means it's easy for new climbers to get started and get on the wall! We also have programs for kids, climbing teams, competitions and events.

the old Danforth was in downtown Framingham. Had to be moved out of the bldg - now merged w/ Framingham State. Art classes, super equipped and light bathed studios, lovely art displays, including local native, Meta Warrick Fuller's permanent sculpture collection (of the Harlem Renaissance).

Springdale offers some great beers, especially with their sours and IPAs. They allow you can bring in your own food, or order a few items from the Jacks Abby menu for delivery for a small surcharge. The bartenders are very friendly, generous with their sampling, and helpful with recommendations. They offer some great events, with trivia, yoga and zumba at the brewery for awesome prices ($15 for 1 hour yoga and a beer can't be beat), as well as all the time entertainment with corn hole, arcade games and shuffleboard. It never gets nearly as crowded as its neighbor, which is great!

Great to have Movie Theaters back as the pandemic moves along. They don't allow food or drinks... snack bar closed and you are not allowed to bring anything in. Seating is spaced out... wipes everywhere... you need to wear a mask during the film. I've gone 3 times over the past month and the place has been VERY quiet. Guess people don't see the benefit vs. the risk. Love this theater still... great seats... reserve on line.
