Everett's best in my opinion...Artistically and expertly prepared speciality coffee drinks and a beautiful, stylish space. They are now serving beer, wine and food as well as collaborating with other local crafters and local artisans. Maxwell Mooney has brought new life to downtown Everett.

I love this place for the small, delightful arboretum. It is a very easy walk and is sandwiched between a neighborhood and the golf course...They are currently expanding so it will only get better. Go here for a relaxing stroll and breathe in the smells of nature all around you in the heart of the city.

Everything Else
This is a work in progress so if you go, you can wander out to the waters edge alongside the marina, grab a bite to eat or a cocktail at Bluewater Distillery, fish and chips and a brew at Scuttlebutts or a coffee and a snack at the cafe next door. Plan to explore for awhile, it is going to be changing day by day. This is also where our very popular Sunday farmers market happens at Boxcar Park from 11am-4pm.
