Surrounding restaurants, like the Tin Angel Café, and Tony Coputo Market and Deli are some good local options outside of the park.
Twilight Market:
Take some time to check out the vendors. Some really great artists show up beneath the tent booths. Often their stuff is more expensive than a department store’s, but you’ll get handmade quality and some originality in your purchase. They need your local support, too.
