Food Scene

The pastry is the best in Durham. No place to sit inside, so I usually head to the park around the corner.

Local, healthy, with their own gardens used to grow herbs, etc. that they use in their concoctions. Also a nice bike ride away. You won't find this in any other city.

Entertainment & Activities

Short walk or bike ride downtown. Always something good on the screen and sometimes free screenings of indie films. The building is also worth a look - a beautiful, old theatre building.
