The Venue Outdoor seating abounds and some restaurants take their grills to the sidewalk, so food and beverages are only steps away. Kids are welcome on the lawn where families can enjoy the Ole Bull River that runs through the middle of the campus. As a courtesy to your neighbors, no dogs or coolers please. |
