This is short drive or bike ride; more local beers and wines with some great food trucks. My favorite is "Yardy" usually there Wednesday - Saturday opening at 4. West Indian cuisine. Some of the best fried chicken or if vegetarian, order their doubles -- fry bread with a chickpea curry served with the chef Isaiah's own fermented hot sauces. oh, and the plantains, swoon. DOP pizza is also excellent.

Located next to the River Walk along the Willamette (rhymes with "damn it") River. A beautiful place for a picnic or a saunter through a vast array of rose varieties. If you're lucky (and here in June) most likely you could get photo bombed into a wedding in the Gazebo.

Favorite Locally-owned Grocery
If you want to stock up on pantry items for your stay. You DO have a full kitchen at the Alley House. I recommend the Kiva Grocery just .5 miles from Alley House. It's locally owned. It will seem small when you walk in, but you will be amazed at the amount of diverse and often organic items located in their store. It also has a well-stocked deli area that you can take home some pre-locally made food items. Yes, we do have a Whole Foods that is just a few more blocks beyond the Kiva, but "why?" when you can support a local grocer who has been active in our Eugene community for decades.

Layers are key
When I first moved to Oregon; someone told me there was never a bad day outside, it just determines what kind of coat to wear. Layers are great. We usually have mild to moderate temperatures; the nights do cool down. Late fall through late spring; some type of rain gear is recommended. FYI: Oregonians really don't use umbrella's...it's all about the right coat.

Eugene is a casual town
Eugene is typically a very casual town. Case in point, you can mingle at the symphony between people in tuxes to birkenstocks.
