More than a meal

You can do a little shopping or grab a drink while you wait for your food. Ageless Vintage and The Avenue Events’ flower pop-up join the lineup alongside Session Taproom for brews and Remedy for cocktails. Don't forget to save room for your Crumbl Cookies dessert. SOCO will also add coworking spaces upstairs early next year.

Stop in for dinner at 6 p.m. to see the tree lighting and catch a little snowfall.
