http://www.downtownmelbourne.com/ Of course downtown has a good selection for dining and shopping, below are just a few things, to find out more click the link. They offer holiday candlelight shopping during December and many Christmas items at the Christmas Cottage all year long.
Friday Fest – once a month, the 2nd Friday from 6-10pm, the streets are closed to vehicles and open to people. Businesses stay open later for shopping, tents are set up with food and drinks, crafts are displayed and they offer a variety of things to do for the kids. Check the website for more information.
Off the Traxx (918 E. New Haven Ave.) – a large room, booths and tables to eat on one side of the bar, pool tables on the other, a very large bar in the center, stage and small dance floor to the back of the room. Smoke free. To name a few items on the menu; pizza, crab fritter & dip, crocks of soup, burgers. They of course have drinks, weekends (maybe other days as well?) bands. It could be a little loud if you were going just for dinner on the weekend, so call ahead to check on the events. I liked this place, it’s a nice change from the places we have here.
Mainstreet Pub - http://www.mainstreetpub.cc/
this place has several hang out areas, out back tiki bar, upfront whiskey bar and upstairs lava bar with a variety of food and entertainment with Dj’s, live music and $ beer night. Check out their web site for more info.
Meg O’ Malley’s – http://megomalleys.com/
The name says it all. Malley’s not only offers the typical Irish dishes it has a calendar of events that very often spill out into the streets, which are closed to cars every once in a while. Their annual Meg O’Ween is very popular, but also very crowded!
