With excellent coffees, creative cocktails and an inviting coffeehouse vibe (with outdoor seating as well), Halcyon makes a fine destination after a bike ride along the river. There's plenty of good snacking and dining choices, and even make-your-own s'mores for the pyrotechnically inclined. Occasional live music.
