Lafayette Recomendations needed, Yoga, Food & more!
Hi, everyone!
My husband and I just moved to Lafayette. Does anyone have any recommendations of some local "must dos"? We moved from Boulder, so we aren't totally new to area... we are just used to much less of a suburbia style and are looking for some cool things to check out. Please, cooler than Applebees!
Also, anyone know of a good Yoga studio locally?
Thanks!!
Re: Lafayette Recomendations needed, Yoga, Food & more!
Hi! I'm in Lafayette, too. This board is obviously very dead lately!
For cool stuff, go to Louisville.
I kid. But they do have some good stuff to check out. There's the Street Faire on Friday nights in summer that's fun, and the old town louisville area has some good restaurants. We like Lucky Pie (pizza), sweet cow (ice cream), waterloo (burgers), and Empire, but there's other good ones, too. There is a good farmers market in Louisville on Saturday mornings and one in Lafayette on Thursday afternoons, but I haven't been for a while.
There's a yoga studio in Louisville on the main street that I like--Yoga Junction. I used to do prenatal yoga there and the instructor bought the studio, I heard.
Lafayette has some things going on, but you just kind of have to keep your eye out. The Peach Festival is coming up in August--it's fun but REALLY crowded and hot when I've been. There's sometimes events (like Artwalk) around the public fountain area in old town, but I haven't been to many. Check out the oatmeal festival in January.
For restaurants in Lafayette, all my neighbors love 503 International Cafe, and I like Thai Kitchen III (even if it is in a strip mall). Eats and Sweets is good ice cream in old town. There's a bunch of stuff over off of highway 42 and Arapahoe (I think--north of Indian Peaks)--Zamparelli's and some others.
Enjoy!
Efrain's for Mexican food
Proto's for pizza
Ditto the Louisville recs - Empire especially, and The Rex right across from it as well.
We moved to Broomfield after being in the govs park area of Denver for many years - and we are still having some culture shock, for sure.
The Orchard in Westminster, with it's location of the Cheeky Monk, along with Wine and Cheese and the outdoor walkability of the whole thing is kind of saving me at this point - but I am slowly discovering some places that we like, and also remembering that not only can we hit up the old haunts in Denver that we loved, but all of the great places that I loved in Boulder when I was growing up (and the new things that have come along as well) are all closer than we have in our heads, I think.
And WOO HOO for all of this free parking.
