Great Value for Fast Mexican Street food. I like the two Carnitas Tacos plus a Modelo Beer. Chips and Salsa for Free. Can be busy during peak times with students. Try in for lunch or off hours.

Famous for Big Tri Tip Sanwiches. Combine that with a huge basket of fries or onion rings and you are set to go! Can be busy during peak times, but the line goes fast.

Parks & Nature

Hike to the top of Terrace Hill for a fantastic view of the city and surrounding mountains. Fun walk/hike takes you across the Jennifer St bridge to Terrace Hill. Give yourself 1.5 hours for a casual walk. Take the trail up from the Bishop St side. For shorter walk just go to the top of the Jennifer St Bridge.
